I popped this one on late last night, probably after 11 PM. I was home alone, and honestly? It creeped me out more than I expected. It actually turned out to be a pretty solid watch. The concept is a bit out there, and the POV filming style keeps things interesting. It felt a little low-budget at first glance, but the execution is top-tier. My rating: 7/10
If you can't get into the vibe, or if you try watching this with a group of friends, you’re going to hate it. Comedies are for hanging out with buddies; horror is definitely not a group activity.
If you really want the full experience, you should be watching this in some remote cabin way out in the middle of nowhere. Just my two cents. =)
I mean, obviously it won't look like a scene out of a movie, but there's gotta be some heat. It's about a guy who spends his time chasing after models, socialites, and high-society women 😁
Maybe I'll check it out. I haven't decided yet, but if I'm bored, it’s definitely on the list. 😁
I used to hate anything leaning too hard into drama until I saw Melancholy. Sure, that one is sci-fi, but let's be real—it's basically a drama for most of the runtime.
It looks like that Warner Bros. adaptation will have plenty of sex and tension, which is why it caught my eye. 😁
I don't know, I've never been one for all that drama and nonsense... but from what I can gather, we're talking about a total chauvinist here, right? And is he that guy who was in that cheesy movie about those wannabe vampires?
I see some people on here using these crazy, wild emojis in their posts—like those totally unhinged, derpy-looking ones. They look pretty 😁
Since our standard forum set doesn't have anything like that, I’m wondering how they actually pull it off. Are they grabbing them from some specific site or what? Can anyone drop a link to a place where I can find those weird, brain-dead looking emoticons?
I might be off base here, but am I right in thinking they just embed them as tiny images directly into the post?
Start by training a basic combat sport first—I’d recommend Judo, Wrestling, or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Once you have that foundation, then you can start layering in elements from boxing, kickboxing, and things like that.

Regenerating cartilage by drawing blood... just Google it. I'm pretty sure there are videos of these surgeries online. It’s basically they stick a needle in your knee, drain the blood, take it away, put it back, then stab you again to inject it right into the joint.😁
I honestly think the fix for your issue is just a quick 20-minute procedure🙂
I went through something similar with my knee... it’s a bit gruesome to watch, but you'll get through it😁
It feels stupid trying to explain exactly what they did to my knee, and look, I'm not a doctor so I can't start acting like one... but you're out the door and heading home in 20 minutes, maybe a few times like that, haha
Even though nobody here actually bothered to help 😛
I managed to fix the monitor anyway. Here’s the breakdown—it's basically a copy of a post I made on another forum where people actually tried to be useful instead of just ignoring me 🙏
I'm posting this in case anyone else runs into this mess. Save yourself the trip to the repair shop or the money you'd waste buying a new screen. This isn't just an issue with one specific model; most monitors have a pretty similar internal layout. It's not even just an Apple thing; other manufacturers likely use better adhesive strips or more reliable ways to secure wires than what Apple uses (hopefully they aren't relying on cheap tape to hold everything together...)
Here is the original post:
Finally fixed my monitor after struggling with it for days!
The issue was simple: one of the internal cables responsible for the image signal (just the picture, not the backlight) had partially slipped out of its socket at one end. I just pushed it back in and secured it. That brought the picture back, but then a new set of headaches started. First, the colors looked off and the screen was flickering. Turns out, the wires were held down by these flimsy adhesive strips—basically glorified Scotch tape—and they had peeled right off. I ended up using some heavy-duty electrical tape to secure them properly. Then, I had trouble getting the monitor to power on. Same story: a wire connecting the control board (where the menu buttons are) was loose because those crappy strips weren't holding anything. I tightened the wire and wrapped it tight with high-quality electrical tape.
There was also a piece of tape under the main board holding a thin metal plate in place that was causing issues, so I fixed that with electrical tape too.
IT IS ABSOLUTELY EMBARRASSING THAT A MAJOR COMPANY LIKE APPLE ASSEMBLES THEIR MONITORS THIS WAY!!! TECHNICALLY SPEAKING, THERE ARE SO MANY BETTER WAYS TO DO THIS. IT'S JUST LAZY!!!
Here is how poorly that tape was holding the plates:

Regarding the idea that the problem might be that internal video cable, this video helped me figure it out:
Huge thanks to the guy who uploaded the video. Respect. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xfg5-...layer_embedded The internet is a miracle; you can find anything if you look hard enough.
Just to add one more thing: it’s definitely not the GPU. I hooked up a different monitor and everything works fine, so the issue is strictly with this screen. It’s weird—when you think about it, there's only backlighting, but zero image. Even when I unplug the cable, it doesn't show that "check signal cable" message; it just stays stuck on a blank white screen and that's it.
So, I’ve got a hardware issue—not software—with this Dell UltraSharp 940. Every time I power it on, I just get a total whiteout. It doesn't matter if it's even plugged into my PC or not; it's just a blank white screen. If I tilt it or wiggle it on the stand, the picture finally kicks in, but then everything starts flickering wildly until the whole thing dies. When I try to turn it back on later, it’s the same story. I basically have to "jiggle" it just to get an image. Once the picture actually shows up, it works fine, but that's the catch. Right now, my only fix is to never turn it off, which is getting harder to do because the more I have to tilt it to get a signal, the worse it gets. Has anyone dealt with something like this? Is there actually a fix, or is it a lost cause?
Or am I just looking at saving up some cash to head down to Best Buy for a new monitor?

But after watching what Kamui pulled off today, that contract could change in a heartbeat.👍 Especially if there's serious money on the table..
I get the feeling Red Bull is looking for "exciting" drivers, if you catch my drift.🙂 After all, their whole thing is "red Bull gives you wings," right?
In my opinion, Vettel and Button aren't exactly the dream duo (between the collisions, the lack of professionalism at times, and how much they can't stand each other..)
Carl Watson2 said:McLaren fails again. I’m honestly over it. At this point, I’m just holding out hope that McLaren pulls off a win anyway...
I’m also holding my breath for these current idiots to step down with some shred of dignity by the end of the year. Then maybe America can actually start recovering under a new political order—one run by people who are actually sane, educated, and looking out for the best interests of this struggling nation, unlike the morons in charge now. But hey, wishful thinking vs. reality.
Edward Howard2 said:next year he’ll probably be called Deda 😁
but that doesn't change his driving skill. As much as I can't stand Deda, I still think he's the best driver on the grid right now, second only to Alonso.
Think of this season as him just getting back into the swing of things in Formula 1. Plus, the car isn't even top three. If Mercedes steps up their game next year and Red Bull slips up a bit—leaving us with four equal teams—I honestly think it'll just be a two-horse race between Alonso and Deda for the title. Nobody else would stand a chance.
Heh, you've got a point there... Lately, I've been pulling for Alonso and really want to see him take the championship this year (though Webber is alright too). As for the rest of them, they haven't really earned a win yet.
And why not? Imagine next year seeing Alonso vs. Schumacher again. Man, that would be worth every penny to watch.😁
Chris Chase5 said:So Michael is "grandpa," huh? That's a hilarious nickname. At 41, he worked hard enough to actually be a grandfather. Honestly, I’ve been rooting for him since day one, and I still am—which makes this sudden shift in public opinion feel pretty shallow and hypocritical to me. Realistically, plenty of guys in their thirties don't drive like they're eighty, but I guess calling him old makes you all feel tougher. And unless your family traditions involve having 40-year-old grandfathers, maybe apply the same logic to your translations as you would to a bad joke...🙂
....
👍
I hear you, but the "grandpa" thing is really just because Miha has been in Formula 1 forever, retired, and then came back. That's why the label stuck. 😁 Whatever, let's just wait for idući sezona. Maybe he'll have a breakout year and remind everyone who he really is. You never count out an experienced veteran. 😳
EDIT: And for the record, nobody is inflating their ego by calling him "grandpa," and I certainly wouldn't dream of comparing my own driving skills to his. 😵
Look, the race itself wasn't anything out of the ordinary, but that start was absolutely wild and Kamui was driving like a maniac. If you ask me, it was a pretty solid race 👍 If only we'd had some rain at least 😢
But whatever, I figured the race would be pretty dull since everyone would just play it safe with the season winding down... but it actually turned out alright
absolute perfection!!!! aaaa
