        I'm still a fan of the original 1973. Not just a modern interpretation. Too many "important" musical moments were lost in the yesterday's version.

        I spent my summer dodging juvenile tiger snakes while bush walking in our local area. Juvenile snakes are apparently often more dangerous than adults because they lack the control required to ‘dry bite’.

        Well you might not feel that way, but it's not hard to see why people are frustrated. Sometimes it feels like Asian ppl get shortchanged in Hollywood. I'm sure actual Japanese ppl don't care though.

        I can see the argument. The movie is filled with homages/Japanese anachronisms and that combined with Anderson's style can come across as very condescending. I personally thought the movie was charming and the only strange thing I noticed was that none of the dogs have Japanese names.

        That being said, Jen Yamato (I assume this is where you saw this spicy hot take) is terrible.

        Not sure that their going be paying top dollar for someone to sit in a car and stare out the window for hours on end.

        From following Uber on tech news sites for years, I would fully expect them to pay the bare minimum and try to get away with anything they can.

        Convenient as Uber is (at least compared to taxis here in the Manila area), they can be skeevy as f**k sometimes. I use it fairly often since I don't have my own car and mass transit can be a massive PITA, plus I chat often with drivers— loads of them hate it and feel like the system has too much fun shafting them and wringing them dry.

        Which is why I don't use card. Cash payments mean tips if they're not assholes.

        Unless it is for site maintenance, it seems it would be best to let others make that decision for themselves. Otherwise put it to a vote for those that are Friends or at least Contributed to the upkeep of this site. The downtime was unannounced and there was no other technical reason for it that was announced.

        My brother had this goal to drink a scotch that was older then he was. But it kept on getting more expensive every year. Finally around age 25 he bought a 30 yr bottle of Cragganmore.

        I like a good scotch maybe even a bit more than the next guy, I just like bourbon more and bourbons more financially manageable. Great bourbons can be had for 30 bucks, Im not sure sure you start getting into a good single malt until the 50 or 60s its up up from there.
