Re: Movies, Flicks, Films, Videos, cinematography

I am into Italian cinema recently. After Estate violenta I watched Il traditore. The latter actually contains the Sicilian dialect apart that even Portuguese is spoken in that movie. Nice for language buffs like myself.

Re: Movies, Flicks, Films, Videos, cinematography

Finally I saw Tod Browning's Freaks (1932). It is such a weird movie, in a good way.

Re: Movies, Flicks, Films, Videos, cinematography

Inception This is an impossible drag, no wonder the first time I got angry at the screen. Nolan has just no sense of rhythm when it comes to action sequences and, as it happened before, I could not care less about any characters involved whatsoever. Some day I'll probably get Nolan like everyone el...

Re: Random Internet Thread

^ Sounds like crap and I was expecting crap. The next time you open a website you need to verify your name and age with an electronic ID card and then you will be bombarded with ads and finally you can read the crappy news and they are fake.

The Virtues
A mini-series (4 episodes), gut-punching, with a great Stephen Graham.
That was also a great one for me. I streamed this on a rare occasion on one of Germany's official broadcasting channels' library.

Re: VPN and DNS Nonsense

I am actually pretty happy with Mullvad, so I will stay with it. It is only sometimes slower on my laptop than I would expect. I am not sure why. Maybe I should switch to WireGuard. I have still running it through OpenVPN because that is what Proton used when I first installed it. On mobile it works...

^ Still love how clean env-info looks.

Congrats to another Debian release. I will be updating one machine that originally had, actually I cannot remember anymore, in the next weeks or coming month and of course my main rig will be getting Bookworm as soon as I have some more time.

If you’ve paid for longer you can email support to request a refund even if the 30-day refund period has passed (although it wil...

Re: Movies, Flicks, Films, Videos, cinematography

Now you filled up my watch list. :) PS: La révolution française (1989). It was quite enjoyable. If you are interested. It is a long one. I watched it in three parts. The conflict between Danton and Robespierre is also treated. Now I can compare both movies. How I missed that one with Depardieu. I gu...
