Star Trek Beyond (2016) poster

Another alien race is whipped up, with another genocidal personality wielding another universe-threatening super weapon, and The Enterprise and her crew are once again the only thing standing in the way.

God, yet another of the same old shit. If you liked the other, you’ll like this.

Not to be confused with The Suicide Squad – (2021 movie). Somehow.

Some bad mutants superhumans are assembled to fight others.

Basically forgettable except for Harley. Has bunches of characters nobody has heard of or cares about.


Ghostbusters (2016) image

Having fallen from grace, two friends are reunited in their pursuit of ghosts, eventually forming a band of four who fight them. And stuff.

This is neither a sequel to the actual Ghostbusters – (1984 movie), nor is it anything in its style or quality. It’s just a theft of the franchise. It shits all over it. Ignoring all of that, it’s still an awful movie on its own.

This is not a comedy! Don’t mistake it for one! The only funny scene had nothing to do with the main characters.

This is a steaming pile of shit. Do not watch it!

This is officially non-cannon.

World of Warcraft > AddOns >

https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/details

Yet another DPS meter.

It can be made to work quite well. I especially like chat-tab integration.

Although it can be configured to be more simple, the fact that it’s such a large/complex addon makes it vulnerable to breakage and not worth using.

Digital Voice Recorder 1

was chinabuye.com/4gb-digital-stereo-voice-recorder-dictaphone-mp3-player-1

A basic dictaphone and mp3 player.

It records with horrible static with both its in-built and provided microphone, but its mp3 playback is spectacular. Its utterly shit mp3 interface, slow song switching and no shuffle make it basically useless as a player.

I bought this lower-sized version because it mentioned having a lithium battery. It does not, which pisses me off to no end.

While this works, it is definitely not recommended. Buy something else, even if it costs more.

  • There is no name brand or model identification on this device or its documentation.
  • Chinabuye named this item 4GB Digital Stereo Voice Recorder Dictaphone MP3 Player

Modify (2005) image

Entertainment > Movies >

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0455980/

Stories of people who regard augmenting their bodies as a way of life, whether for artistic reasons or out of pure vanity.

A movie about people who feel so trapped in their body they desperately want to control it. A community that’s basically a hugbox that shackles them together for encouragement.

Approaching the Unknown (2016) poster

Entertainment > Movies >

(on Wikipedia)
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2674430/

A guy who builds the technology to turn dirt into water goes to Mars, and even though he knows the ship better than anyone else, somehow, he has trouble on the way.

A patient, somewhat interesting movie. Worth watching if you’re into such things, but definitely not if you’re new to this style.

I watched the whole thing, and don’t really regret it, but I wouldn’t categorize this as anywhere near awesome.

Online learning >

https://github.com/learningequality/ka-lite/

An offline version of Khan Academy.

A free lightweight solution providing high-quality education where you need it most.

Though this software is unofficial, it is known of and approved by the official website.

disliked – because it has no concept of building a larger topic of things to work on, and showing an easy path to progress through them. Needing to pick through a large number of topics, sub-topics and quizzes and then manually and repeatedly going back into that list is inexcusably frustrating.

  • Once installed it’s seen at 127.0.0.1:8008
