Mine was 'The Green Slime,' a Japan/Italy/US production that I saw when I was 4 or so. Wasn't really that scary, but it was my first introduction to the theme of 'microorganisms as monsters.' Later, when I was about 10, my dad took me to see 'Alien.' Both these movies really rammed home the importance of good hygiene, lest that infection grow into a planet-devouring monster.
Interesting way to avoid those grass burrs.
Correct - there is no ‘one size fits all’ solution for this. Ideally, you would be on a team where your manager is well aware of what works for each individual, and make decisions based on that but also taking into consideration that there will need to be compromises where individual preferences are in conflict. Some folks may certainly work better in isolation. Others thrive from interaction with others. The more reasonable arguments for WFH practices stress flexibility when accounting for team dynamics.
If management actually value face-to-face collaboration, then they'll mandate all team members be in the office on the same set of days. Allowing you to pick your own WFH days speaks to different priorities - either manager oversight of specific individuals, or justification for all the money being spent on rent.
The Grand Budapest Hotel (peak Wes Anderson)
Yeah, I see railings at these kinds of spots as a very good thing. They let you get right to the edge for that perfect shot, and no one is the wiser for how little risk it took.
Not lost on me that Robert Wise, who directed ‘Sound of Music,’ also directed ‘ST: The Motion Picture.’
Tron Legacy, at least to me, was an example of a film that was let down by poor editing, especially during the fight scenes.
This movie was a lot of fun!

This video appears to be missing an important step - keeping pressure on the flipper part of the blade so it doesn’t accidentally come down on your thumb as you disengage the lock. It helps if there is a more significant flipper guard on the knife, which the sample in the video appears to lack.
You mean listed on Steam as being SD compatible? Yeah, I expect Steam adds a little bit of secret sauce to get their hosted titles working correctly. I’ll check online resources that specifically target Epic and GOG game compatibility.
I normally check online to see if a particular Epic or GOG games is compatible with the Steam Deck before using Heroic to install it, but following that, I haven’t run into any big issues with getting the game to run with the latest Proton version. Though I suspect some games do work better on an older build.
Ebert clearly recognized the value of his brand, and did what he could to ensure it would continue to support his family and colleagues long after he was gone. And while you’re certainly within your rights to be critical of the new writers’ opinions, it’s not like some evil corporation brought them in after immediately assuming the legal rights to Roger’s name.
Is this an either/or situation, where you want to ditch or replace your projector with a TV? If not, I’d suggest sticking with a projector for those times when you would like to watch with the lights off just for the immersion, and have a TV for all those other times.
