I heard that Ari Aster is going to focus on other genres now because he doesn't want to be known as a horror director.

I liked Us, but I didn't really get it. I just enjoyed the ride.

I'm really looking forward to The Lighthouse, and less so Scary Stories. One of these days I should watch It...

Do you have any interest in The Devil's Rejects sequel? Three From Hell I think it's called.

We like to smoke pot, we like it a lot
Our small eyes are tearing for what we have not
The nice pipe is here, a lighter is near
I won't become freaked out, fear not, sister dear
We miss the blue sky, it is cold we will cry
Our big mind is waning, and we now know why
We want to feel warm, yet outside the norm
We want to be cradle-held, and then be reborn

TopicWhat is the absolute cheapest computer I can get for video editing
kind9
08/03/19 6:57:05 AM
#10
What kind of video editing? There's no way it takes a $1k+ PC to use Windows Movie Maker. Even if the issue is rendering it might take longer on a budget PC but it's still doable.

I built mine on an ultra tight budget like 8 years ago with all AMD products and it can run 3DS Max, Blender, GIMP with multiple hi res textures open, CrazyBump and some others simultaneously without issue.

Granted that's not video editing and I don't know the first thing about video editing, but it makes me a little skeptical that you couldn't do it with a ~$1000 budget PC. The TC doesn't seem to be looking for a professional grade supercomputer, they want a PC that's more than a moderately expensive space heater.

So conflicting ideologies may not be the source of hatred and intolerance, but they are most definitely a cause. Especially theistic, dogmatic religions that literally state, "this is the way and all others are false."

Numbers don't gel with your argument.

Taking a look at the two largest religions,there's about 2.2 billion Christians in the world and 1.8 billion Muslims. Collectively they make up over half the world's population. If even a tenth of those people were the dogmatic, "I will literally kill you for not believing what I do" sort that you're claiming religion fosters they would constitute an army greater than any that has ever been assembled in the history of the world and their resultant wars with one another, and with the rest of the planet, would put both World Wars to shame in terms of impact and death tolls.

PO said it best - religions, historically, were an excuse for a lot of conflicts, but they've seldom been the cause. Had religion never been a thing, the wars still would have happened, just for a different reason.

I don't know what you think my argument is, but you read way too much into my two short sentences. For one we constantly see religious extremism and conflicts happening today. And my argument is that religion leads to hatred and intolerance and superstitious thinking stifles critical thinking.

It goes way farther back to our stone age ancestors who worshiped nature and the shamans who profited from these superstitions by claiming to have direct communication with nature spirits

If you don't actually know anything significant about what you're talking about, you probably shouldn't attempt to use it in an argument.

I'm willing to bet you know literally nothing about prehistorical social structures and interaction other than what you've read in fiction or what other people have told you in passing.


Why so hostile suddenly? Here I thought this was a peaceful discussion and out of nowhere you throw an ad hom at me. Pray tell, what did I get wrong?

For the record our knowledge of prehistoric humans is largely based on observing modern tribes, but what I said is believed to be the case.

Edit: Also for the record, 1) Yes I do have a surface knowledge of all of this, 2) I'll be happy to admit when I'm wrong because I don't like being wrong, and 3) I don't even think I was contradicting you, I just added on to what you said. So I'm a little baffled by your reply.

Don't blame either - the real problem is humanity.

Europeans were incredibly shitty to each other (and to others), but so were Asians, Africans, and even Native Americans long before Europeans found them.

Like it or not, violence, oppression, conquest, and a willingness to see others as lesser (thus justifying enslaving or killing them) has been part of the human psyche since the dawn of the species as we know it. The moment there was something worth fighting for, we immediate started fighting over it.

The problems with religion only really exist because humans invented it, and humans basically ruin everything we touch.

It goes way farther back to our stone age ancestors who worshiped nature and the shamans who profited from these superstitions by claiming to have direct communication with nature spirits. Similar to modern day priests who claim to have the one interpretation of God's word(or more like priests during the dark ages who were the only ones who could interpret the bible). This way of thinking is ingrained in our brains, but I don't think we need to capitulate to that fact.

I agree that morality is fluid and not absolute, which is opposite to what the bible preaches. I think hatred and intolerance exists because ideologies that divide us exist. So we should at least strive to eliminate or minimize the influence of those ideologies.

I switched to vape for the convenience and because it was cheaper and I assume cleaner and safer than cigarette tobacco. Someone gave me a vape pen and a bunch of juice and that was the last day I had a cigarette, and I was up to two packs a day at that point. I wanted to test myself and see if I could actually replace cigarettes with vape and it was surprisingly easy for me. The hardest part was resisting the urge to reach for a pack of cigarettes.

I use Smok starter kits because they're compact and don't require maintenance other than changing the coils every week or two, which is about a 20 second process.

Really? I mean, I'm not going to tell someone what their child should watch, that's up to them. But it doesn't seem that bad to me...

To be fair I don't think Larry cares either way.


Kids who grew up in the 80's like me had violence everywhere. Some of my favorite cartoons when I was a kid: Transformers, G.I. J. Goe and TMNT had people and robots shooting earth other or turtles constantly destroying robots and beating up shredder's goons.

If kids didn't want to watch that, there was Ducktales, Muppet Babies and so on

A lot of parents let their kids watch what they were watching back then for R rated movies. And a lot of parents I know (including my own) made sure to teach us about violence

Admittedly, the movies now are more realistic than the ones I saw as a kid. But if people make sure to teach their kids that yes, this movie is fake and teach them the long term repercussions of using violence, kids will be fine

True, one of the first movies I remember watching as a little kid was Hellraiser. My parents only made me look away from whatever they were watching if there was nudity on screen.
