Although politics is in everything, I’m gonna give a shot for best apolitical movie:

Kill Bill.

Not because it’s void of any political messages, but because it’s a straight forward revenge story with one man army set pieces.

It doesn’t try to say that much about society, its focus is about the relationships of a few people. Everyone can agree betrayal is a bad thing and the movie doesn’t really try to justify revenge, but just to show it in an outlandishly cool way.

Okay so he is the son, makes perfect sense.

Also, Leslie Nielsen was very good at looking serious and doing dead pan delivery, Liam Neeson is really good at that too.

I want there to be at least one joke about this in the movie

V for vendetta is my go to for a political movie.

Some thought that cartoonish villains taking over western countries while the rest of the world went to shit was far fetched but here we are.

Idk man, while I agree, I think the trump trials before the elections was the lowest point.

Homer voice: lowest point so far

Getting Luigied is now part of my vocabulary

While I haven’t convinced anyone, I have seen things shift to a more class conscience level.

Luigi might have been the turning point. Slowly right wing spaces are turning anti rich.

I haven’t been able to convince anyone, but I’ve gotten people to agree if I just focus on “I want this in my country cause it would benefit me as a working class man”.

So imo it’s less about going head on and more about finding something you could agree with and just solidifying that, if they are gonna move left it’s gonna happen slowly by them observing their life.

Even if they didn’t read project 2025.

Just like covid, we had the 1/3 sane portion of the population that tried to warn the idiotic 1/3 while they refused to listen.

It’s one thing to be uninformed, it’s another to demonize (yes they did) people who are trying to help you.

Yeah but have you tried getting yourself dizzy… on weed!?

Rotta Loria likens the process to the technique coral and mollusks use to form their shells, which harnesses metabolic energy to convert dissolved ions into calcium carbonate. But, instead of metabolic energy, the researchers applied electrical energy to initiate the process and boosted mineralization with the injection of CO2.

Neat

But movie theatres are no longer the only way to enjoy the latest films.

That’s what it offered before, if a movie was coming out, you had no choice to either go to theatre or wait like a few years until you could rent or buy the VHS/DVD.

Theatres need to offer something else now. IMO their best chance is to become “the third place” for teenagers. They can have free hang out areas with affordable snacks that you can also see a movie there later.

But we all know they won’t cause their main motive is money.

And yeah, if you only care about money, there isn’t much to be made anymore for offering a big screen in this digital world.

Hi,

I’m trying to find a way to have my iPhone’s photos be automatically (or even manually) backed up/synced with my home server.

I heard about photo prism here and got it up and running, however I could not find a free app that lets you sync. Photo sync is their main recommendation and it puts high quality photo backup behind premium.

Is there any solution that lets you backup your photos through home wifi?

Thanks in advance.

Edit: thanks to the suggestions, I found this handy chart listing many and comparing them: https://meichthys.github.io/foss_photo_libraries/
