I initially thought “War Pigs” when I first saw the image, but I don’t think that’s it
There’s actually a Python-based framework that can make mobile apps called Kivy, but as you might expect it would not be terribly performant.
Hello again Mr. Stamets! ❤️
I haven’t seen this movie in a really, really long time, so I don’t remember what the dad actually looks like, but in this frame and at this angle he looks like a weird morph of Tommy Lee Jones and Bob Odenkirk
Yeah a lot of stuff in Deep Space 9 is setup throughout The Next Generation, in a way it’s a spin-off of TNG. Lwaxana Troi is the mother of one of the main characters on TNG, for example. (random fact: the actor is also the widow of the creator of Star Trek, Gene Roddenberry). She also acted on the original series, but played a different character.
There is definitely a religious slant throughout the show, especially when it comes to the Bajorans or Sisko, but generally doesn’t act as a deus ex machina plot device. Okay I can think of one plot point of the top of my head where it’s a bit deus ex machina, but it’s still very enjoyable and arguably makes sense within the context of the entirety of the show. Overall I’d say the Bajoran / wormhole alien religion plays an important part in the show, but more for setting / theme and less for major plot points, and in episodes where it is a plot construct it is well done and makes sense in-universe, unlike some other shows I can think of (like Battlestar Galactica).
Have you been introduced to the Cardassian named Garak yet? In my humble opinion Garak (and Gul Dukat, whom you’ve already met) are some of the best characters ever written for TV. The character development over the seasons is organically great, for most of the characters, really.
There is an overall main story spread out throughout the show, which I think doesn’t really kick into full gear until season 4 I think? Deep Space 9 is different from the other Star Trek shows in that the other shows generally don’t have an overarching story, each episode is more or less self-contained, which made DS9 quite the radical contrast at the time it was released.
How far into Deep Space 9 are you? If you find it interesting now you’ll probably thoroughly enjoy seasons 5-7.
If you want to try watching the Patrick Stewart one (The Next Generation) I suggest starting with the pilot / first episode, then the season 2 episode “Measure of a Man” and then watch all episodes starting with season 3 onward. Keep in mind The Next Generation chronologically comes before Deep Space 9.
You’ve never had to do something outside of what is included in the PHP standard library? You’ve never used composer or included a third-party library?
You must dedicate a lot of time to writing things from scratch, things that are already solved (almost certainly better than you or I can ever do ourselves) and can be utilised by using a third-party library / module / package etc.
Node does take things to the extreme sometimes, but often packages are saving you hundred or thousands of hours a year, so you can focus on overall logic rather than creating an already existing tool for sending high-volume templated email, for example.
I love reading the comments on Mac Rumour articles when it’s negative news for Apple’s platforms or services. To paraphrase: “Vulcan bad!” “Lazy Devs!” “But they support Linux?” and “What a dumb business decision!”
Yes, Apple zealots, Valve is absolutely going to support your vendor-specific graphics API on a platform that they aren’t making much money from, and will continue to support and test that platform for years, operating as a charity because they love Apple so much 😂
I agree entirely with that sentiment. With this absurd abandonment of the 4a, the constant reports of owners not being able to dial 911, and my 4a randomly deciding one day to go into “emergency mode” and begin calling 911 on its own (while the phone was in my hand, I was just checking email, finger was nowhere near the power button to activate “emergency mode”), and the fact that the feature gap between Android and iOS is becoming narrower and narrower, I am seriously considering going back to iPhone 🙄
Yep, Pixel 4 and Pixel 4a will not be getting anymore updates.
Hah. From your perspective sure, I’ll give you that. I don’t think subjective or objective “quality” is the sole criteria when comparing cinema, especially in this context where the article is talking about comic book movies versus the rest of cinema, but I am running on 4 hours of sleep so I wasn’t as clear I could have been, sorry. In this context, from my perspective, they are inherently comparable since they are in the same genre. I think we may also have slightly different applications of “comparable” here — maybe a regional language thing?
For the record I think the couple of Marvel movies I’ve seen have been vapid wastes of time that could have possibly been written engineered by LLMs for maximum returns on investment. So I think we’re of a similar opinion and probably on the same side here. I still think mentioning Nolan in this context is hilariously hypocritical given he made some of the biggest comic book movies ever. I get the intent behind evoking Nolan’s quality filmmaking, still funny to me regardless.
That said… Your messages come across as quite antagonistic. Why is that? I mean this quite sincerely: are you doing okay? It takes so much energy to be sour all of the time — I know from experience. Feel free to message me on here if you want to shoot the shit.

They are literally comparable as they are both in the same genre this article is about. You realise Batman is a comic book character, and that the article is about comic book movies, yeah? I said nothing about the quality between the two.
It’s kind of amusing that he mentioned Christopher Nolan as a possible ally in his grassroots campaign of filmmakers extolling the virtues of cinema. Christopher Nolan who made a massive comic book movie trilogy. That Christopher Nolan?
Damn, the replacement voice actors are pretty good. I would’ve assumed that was Justin.
Oh so you must be a very ripe peach!
But if you’re a peach how are you communicating? Are you still attached to your tree? Are there other sentient peaches?
Haha yeah, launch date, which makes it 3 years and 1 month which is still absurd. It’s sad that they’re okay with condemning the device as e-waste since it’s still perfectly serviceable, but I can’t use it for work if it’s no longer receiving at least security updates 😢
And before someone says “just buy a new pixel” I don’t really like the new pixels. The 4a has a headphone jack, a rear fingerprint reader, and is still fast with good battery. I shouldn’t be forced to buy an upgrade to this one yet.
Welp, time to expedite that switch to RustDesk, I guess!
