  • Kinda weird it was against the law before covid in most places.

  • Not sure if this is exactly what you're looking for, but the opening scene to The Conversation uses a high-zoom shot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlwdpNw1FW8

    Eye in the Sky also prominently features long-distance/high magnification shots from the perspective of a drone/UAV.

  • And if you're a fan of quotation marks you could call it a "2"x4"."

  • The US tried that. It was called the Articles of Confederation. It didn't really work out.

  • What do you consider to be memes? Just images/image macros? Gifs? Videos? Copy pastas? Do you dislike all of these, or just some?

    Generically, I'd say memes are essentially just widespread "internet culture" inside jokes. Disliking humor or inside jokes is definitely not the norm.

  • I would have thought so too, but they're working on at least one. Although you're right about a lot of places being unfeasible--anything more than dirt/gravel in a very limited number of communities would be cost prohibitive.

  • Those are the exact things I'm looking for (just waiting for a few more roads to connect towns). I'm glad to hear it's living up to the expectations I've heard of!

    I went to Iceland a couple years ago and the landscapes are amazing, but there are definitely areas where you run into a lot of tourists, busses, etc.

    I'm visiting the Faroe Islands later this year and I'm hoping to experience some rugged landscapes in relative isolation there too.

  • I'd definitely like to go there someday too--it's just a bit too remote for me at the moment.

    I can see its tourism becoming what Iceland was like 15-20 years ago.

  • OP wasn't asking for an accurate answer. The question presupposes Hitler is convicted in the Nuremberg trials.

  • Fallout 76. Granted, I played it almost a year after release.

    I found it to be a very good game overall. Not as good as New Vegas or FO3, but I thought it was better than FO4.

  • That's where the "definitely just a balloon, don't pay any attention" landed after the Chinese spy balloon was shot down about a year ago.

    At least that's the first time I heard of Dead Horse.

  • Tom Hanks sent one of his kids to one of these institutions.

  • It really is a fantastic book. I'm a sucker for mid-20th century nuclear apocalypse literature, but this book is in a league of its own.

  • You don’t have a soul, Doctor. You are a soul. You have a body, temporarily.

    Reading that quote made me reflect on the distinctions between body, soul, and consciousness in a new way.

    It's from the book A Canticle For Leibowitz for anyone curious.

  • Aside from the electricity, that sounds a lot like traditional currency.

  • You're right, SATA isn't going anywhere for a very long time. If you have a need for 4+ TB of total storage there is nothing at all wrong using HDDs or 2.5" SSDs.

  • Pretty sure you're remembering "Life After People" from the History channel.
