Remember the Chevy Volt? Pepperidge Farm etc.

Don’t care if he was Sicilian. His “crying Native American” anti-littering commercial made a huge impact. It says a lot about the US that you don’t see these kinds of PSAs anymore.

Security updates need to be available for at least seven years. Not just a phone problem either. Forced obsolescence just creates e-waste.

I guess New Republic didn’t get the memo to suck up to trump now like the other media outlets did.

If they had set the upcoming Starfleet Academy series before TNG we could’ve seen a new actor play young Picard and others.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a map printed on only one side of the paper. Makes me wonder if this was a run of misprints or a subway poster or something.

Is Southwestern Bell liable for what I say on the telephone?

PG&E shouldn’t exist after all the fires they’ve caused.

They don’t care because there are no serious repercussions. All that ever happens is a slap on the wrist and a class action lawsuit resulting in “free credit monitoring” for a few months.

What a waste of money.

 

Is there a setting somewhere in Plex or on the server so that some songs don’t play loud and others so soft? Thanks in advance.

This is just greenwashing the original plan to add another natural gas power plant. What a scam. “Oh it could eventually run on hydrogen too. In five years. Maybe?”

 

This project is such a waste of money.

 

Are there any good iOS apps for rating songs while they play in Plex on the TV? I can’t find a way to rate songs using an AppleTV and its remote.

I did try the Plex app on the phone, but you have to leave it as the frontmost app or it will disconnect by the next time you open it (app flushes/sleeps). If it doesn’t disconnect then instead you get a mismatch of what’s playing and what can be rated (album art/track name/rating pane don’t match). There’s also no widgets from the app to do this from on iOS.

Or is there a web app I can run on the server and connect to from the phone’s web browser to rate items as they play?

Isaiah Bradley’s backstory (self.marvelstudios)
submitted 1 month ago by reddig33 to c/marvelstudios
 

Finally got around to watching “Falcon and The Winter Soldier” and it would have been so much better if Isaiah Bradley’s story had been the first episode, or a stand-alone movie. Instead it’s just told in exposition. If you go read his backstory, it is a pillar of the F&WS plot. Disappointing that an interesting chapter of this universe is confusingly meted out in bits and pieces across episodes. Here’s hoping his “prequel” eventually gets told.

As an aside — am I really supposed to believe Falcon doesn’t get paid the big bucks and can’t afford to pay to fix up his sister’s boat?
