was morbius.movie

A cripple does science that goes bad.

This movie is a special kind of bad all it’s own. There are movies which are bad, you know it and you can point it out. For those movies you can pick them apart and agree on things or argue over what you imagine might have been done better. Morbius, on the other hand, is bad in a way you can’t put your finger on. There are pictures and they move, but the writing, acting and sound are void of substance. The audio in particular is insubstantial.

A plugin to let you insert text mid-sentence, and have it be turned into a link leading to the text instead placed at the bottom of the page.

Easy to use and really nice!

2.1.3 had a serious vulnerability so I was forced to update; I’ll look for a replacement and maintained footnotes plugin.

A classic/vanilla World of Warcraft private server with additional modifications.

While it looks like it has hope, it fails because there are no quest markers on the minimap, so I don’t know where to find quests. I don’t want to re-live that part of things.

2024-11-29 – It was nuked by Blizzard at some point, but came back up again.

The birth of a villain, this movie follows the man before the Joker.

A slow and moody film, which manages to become extraordinary.

A dying nerd decides to use his consciousness to imprint into a machine to bootstrap it into artificial intelligence.

A decent enough but forgettable movie.
