Well, they can, but the cost will get more volatile… super oversimplified, it’s the difference between drinking at home booze you bought at wholesale prices and keeping a running tab with a local bar/pub. You’ll be subject to the bar and any price changes they (read: the currency markets) want to make.
I think what made that script work was they just threw everything at the wall and if it stuck it stuck and, if not, they moved along. There’s like three spoken jokes and two sight gags per every five minutes of film; some of it hit, some of it didn’t. Some of it was topical, especially concerning the films they were lampooning, the dramatic “Airport” series. Like the PA announcements in the airport scenes about abortion, that was in “Airplane” because there was a whole subplot about abortion in “Airport.” In the dramatic film, it was as if the writers wanted to beat you over the head about abortion, so that specific joke in Airplane lands differently if you’ve seen and are a fan of the Airport series. Still… it’s a real testiment to the skill of the screen writers that modern audiences, many who have never even heard of “Airport” still find “Airplane” hilarious.
She’s like 25, so there’s not much time I suppose.
You couldn’t make Titanic today because it wouldn’t be believable… Leonardo Decaprio dating a woman his own age? Preposterous!
No, that’s ballot. The balut is the person who is paid to park cars at hotels and fancy restaurants.
I’m okay with ads (just like on broadcast TV), but only if I’m not paying for the streaming/VOD service (just like on broadcast TV). Like, I’m okay with ads on a YouTube video, but I got rid of Netflix when they cancelled a series I liked and, now that they’ve started talking about adding ads, I’ll probably not go back.
I’ve got a working Intellivision which was originally released in 1979. Mine was fresh off the factory floor in 84, I think that was the last year it was made.
In other news, meteorologist says the sky is blue.
Hash browns are salad, confirmed.
Domino’s is sheetrock.
Actually, it’s a cheesey tomato soup in a bread bowl.
Salsa is fruit salad.
The pull cord to the attic hatch in the hallway ceiling. Who else is with me? When I could reach that without jumping, I knew that day that I was a man (I was twelve).
I took so much of the popcorn off the ceiling my mom got upset.
Same where I’m at. 😞
The off the shelf commercial parts (game controller, computer monitors, etc) weren’t that bad of an idea… the bad idea was to not get anything that was fire safety rated. That whole submersible was a fire trap.
Yeah, more clean but not completely… this is not to mention the amount of damage caused by the bomb. Striking Kiev or another city would effectively decimate Ukraine’s infrastructure and economy for decades. If the goal of the war is to subjugate, you don’t want to be in the hook for all those repairs. A nuke on any of Ukraine’s cities would make that dam break last year look like nothing.
If Russia were to strike Ukraine with a nuclear bomb, first and foremost that puts every nation on a knife’s edge globally… someone else with an itchy trigger finger could launch against Russia in the confusing hours afterwards. Next up, the PRC and India would likely abandoned Russia as waves of condemnation would flood the global media. Finally, the whole goal of the war is to take Ukraine, not to make it uninhabitable… why nuke what you want to own?
Unlikely. There’s kind of only two hard-and-fast rules for nuclear war:
Jeans, a t-shirt, unbuttoned long sleeve flannel, and crew shoes. I keep a hoodie in my desk just in case.
I work at a TV station, it’s 68°F (20°C) in here all year round.
So glad the Europeans finally broke Apple and their ridiculous charger shenanigans. A coworker just got a new iPhone and asked me if I had an iPhone charger, I told them no all Ive got is USB C. They said they didn’t know what they had and showed me the bottom of their phone and, sure enough, it’s USB C. They had no idea that only Apple kept making their own charge connector and that basically everyone else had settled on one charger/data port like two or three standards ago.
