Guess the movie by the song (Social Game) in Movies ·
Keep in mind it’s 2 AM here and I’ve got NWA blasting in my ears...

Could it maybe be "You've Got Mail"—you know, the one with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan?

Yeah 👍
--it's your turn to tackle that assignment of yours!
Guess the movie by the song (Social Game) in Movies ·
A while back on this forum, we used to play this movie guessing game... and honestly, it was such a blast...
Here’s the plan: I’ll drop some lyrics, and whoever can nail the song title, the artist, the movie it's in, and the specific scene where it plays gets to set the next challenge for the rest of us... pretty straightforward, right?

Alright, here's the first one:

"I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango.
Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very fright'ning me.
(Galileo.) Galileo. (Galileo.) Galileo, Galileo figaro
Magnifico. I'm just a poor boy and nobody loves me.
He's just a poor boy from a poor family,
save Him his Life from this monstrosity.
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go.
Bismillah! No, we will not let you go.
(Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go.
(Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go.
(Let me go.) Will not let you go.
(Let me go.) Will not let you go. (Let me go.) Ah.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
(Oh mama mia, mama mia.) Mama mia, let me go.
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me."

So—artist, song title, movie, and the scene... (come on, this one's a breeze, you guys know it)!
Any sci-fi movie recommendations? in Movies ·
lonescout2, I can't believe you actually called Starship Troopers a B-movie 😲--seriously?
That’s practically a crime 😁--how?

The movie is a total legend. It's freaking great.

Thanks for getting back to me... 🙂

Well, it really depends on how you cook it...
like, ham is totally fine 👍 👍
ribs are alright too... maybe some bacon with roasted potatoes? 👍
honestly, nothing beats a good roast pork shoulder on a spit 🙏

I'll ask again if I have to! 🙂
mellowwalker22 said:... And I told her that plant-based food is really what’s best for us—I mean, just look at how the human body is built, from our digestive organs to our jaw structure and intestines... [/i]

Hold on a second—what, do you have four stomachs like a cow or some crazy digestive tract? 😲 What kind of nonsense is that? If that were true, we'd have molars like cattle, but we don't... and if humans were carnivores or predators, you could tell just by where our eyes are positioned...

Pearl Harbor, U-123, Independence Day

Man, JPEG compression is such a pain! Basically, the algorithm shrinks the file size by tossing out color data—which is why it looks so wonky sometimes. It actually handles slightly blurry shots pretty well, but those sharp, high-contrast edges? That’s where it really struggles and starts losing detail.

If you want zero quality loss, stick with TIFF or BMP files. Since they store specific color data for every single pixel, you don't lose anything—but yeah, the file sizes are massive.

Just try taking a screenshot of your desktop in BMP format—you'll see it's easily over 2MB right off the bat.

Once you have them, try comparing a BMP against a JPG side-by-side... the difference is night and day.

Quick little appendix here: don't worry about how big your monitor is diagonally—what actually matters is the resolution. 🙂

Yeah, true—just gotta watch out for how much that JPEG compression messes with the quality...

Maybe try hunting down Snagit Studio 6.0?
Printer recommendations? in Computer Peripherals ·
It really just comes down to how much you're actually printing. 😛
isn't that exactly why you guys set it on fire a few years back? remember? 😁
X-Men 2 (2003) in Movies ·
If Halle Berry shows up in that same skimpy outfit from the first movie—I mean, seriously—then I don't see any reason why I wouldn't go see the sequel too. 😁
What have we learned from movies? in Movies ·
I even heard that most American cops get their actual work done while they're sitting out on suspension--isn't that just wild? 😁

You’re forgetting that the most high-tech fire management system out there is basically just a rusty old abacus—especially when you compare it to the Force. 😁

So, what I’ve gathered is that if you’re just some farm kid from the middle of nowhere—seriously, who even lives there?—your first move shouldn't just be picking a fight with your sister, but taking on the princess and heir to the biggest empire in the galaxy, far, far away.

Then, you’ve got this disorganized ragtag group of poorly equipped, totally untrained rebels who somehow manage to absolutely wreck a superior military force in every single universe—mostly just because they happen to be the "bad guys."

And one last thing—never trust a guy wearing a black helmet.

So, Troy had their horse—and Achilles had his heel, right? 🙂
How lucky are we, really? in Lonely Hearts ·
Just more pretentious garbage from those Forward emails they use to spam everyone working at those massive corporations...

There really isn't any. That’s actually the best part! Honestly, my little trick is just installing the 4L drivers for almost all my HP lasers—you know, the 4000, 4050, 1000, 1100, 2100 series and so on. I've never run into a single issue using those drivers. 👍

Are you running into issues with the 5L or 6L?
I can't say for sure about XP—not really my area—but they work like a charm on 2000 without any hiccups, even using the 4L drivers. 🙏 😁

Sometimes—but honestly, most of the time—it’s just pure altruism and that sweet feeling of helping others out 😁

Plus, the print quality is just gorgeous, haha! 😁F
