This is a link post What The Font has an app
It’s really brilliant for identifying fonts

This is a normal post I have mixed feelings about this
on one hand it will help me identify and steal proprietary fonts.
on the other hand it well help others detect I've stolen proprietary fonts.

This is a link post AronChupa, Little Sis Nora - Rave in the Grave NSFW
On the subject of songs from somewhere in Europe that aren't very good, I present possibly the most tasteless few minutes of 2018 (You'll possibly want to skip the first minute and thirty seconds, as naturally it has the massive introduction of any work of art of this sort of calibre)
Marking NSFW as though there isn't any nudity, I don't think you'd want any of your colleagues to see you watching this.

In most years I would say this was a contender for worst song of the year, however this year Lil Dicky / Chris Brown have already won that

This is a normal post That's so bad it breaks the Geneva Conventions.
No, really. Article 44 of the First Geneva Convention states that
"the emblem of the red cross on a white ground and the words 'Red Cross', or 'Geneva Cross' may not be employed, either in time of peace or in time of war, except to indicate or to protect the medical units and establishments, the personnel and material protected by the present Convention and other Conventions dealing with similar matters."

In other words, at around the 3:00 mark, this video actually manages to break international humanitarian law.

In a way, that's impressive.

This is a link post Threads - Redux Project
I few weeks ago I took part in the reduxing of American Assassin. If you didn't see it, basically the Redux Project is a collection of low-budget site-specific shot-for-shot movie remakes, the brain-child of Richard DeDomenici .

This weekend was the premiere of Threads, an 80s UK made-for-TV movie about the effect of nuclear war in Sheffield. It was shown as part of Sheffield Doc|Fest 2018.

If you get the opportunity to get involved in a future redux, I'd highly recommend it. Great fun.

The stupidity of anti-Trump comments never fails to astound. Does he actually think that ranting to an echo chamber is going to make any difference? I guess those middle American undesirables you dislike and who watch your films don't deserve to have votes if they aren't going to use them wisely.

How about finding a Democrat candidate with some ability and credibility who isn't in hock to Wall Street, then perhaps you might get rid of Trump.

By the way Robert, I also remember that anti-vaccination Vaxxed film you and Weinstein worked on and then pulled after scientists had a word. You really do have good judgement don't you?

He lives on another planet. All that matters to him here is his potty mouthed virtue signalling gets a standing ovation. Also, the guy has zero range, he's not even a great actor. A good one, sure. I love his little Godfather cameo. I've seen Goodfellas more than a dozen times. Taxi Driver is seminal. The Deerhunter is defining piece of American cinema. Even the Cape Fear remake is underrated. He's terrific in all of them and more. But. He. Has. No. Range. He plays pretty much the same character in all those films, if slightly more unhinged in Taxi Driver. And the shit he just phones in these days is dire. So you know what? Fuck De Niro.

This is a normal post Given De Niro's platform and reach, he could make a difference
Instead he does what all fuckwits do when there are opposing views and reinforces entrenched positions.

Trump is a despicable piece of work and De Niro could be promoting an alternative that appeals to the majority. Instead he plays to the partisan crowd that not so long ago was covering up for a major sexual devient.

In any case, why do we think someone who plays make believe for a living and is a friend of a child rapist has great insight into what the world needs right now?

Being an actor makes his opinion on the matter any less valid.
I might as well discount what you're saying because you're a milkman or whatever the fuck it is you do.

If you want to make a platform to campaign against Trump, then that's great.
And if you just want to let the world know that other people are just thinking 'Fuck Trump' then that's also great.

Those 30% of people that are entrenched, fuck them. The best the world can hope for is that they stop voting (frankly any reason is acceptable). They are lost causes. Fuck them, the stupid, authoritarian loving, racist enabling scum.

All the US needs is the middle, and you can reach them just as well with a little vulgarity as you can with a purely rational approach.

Also, you're really keen to dismiss him personally (and the whole industry in fact) after he said what seems pretty fair-- why carry that water for Trump?

This is a normal post Absolutely, you can discount what I say, but I don't have a crowd telling me I am wonderful.
Actors always develop a very inflated opinion of their own abilities. They believe they are mentally and morally equivalent to the people they portray and forget they are just the front to someone else's thoughts. The stage and adulation distort their own sense of self-worth.

Trump is a shit, but grandstanding like this only means 4 more years in the Whitehouse for him. It reinforces all the stereotypes of Hollywood as corrupt, vain hypocrites who cover up the filth among themselves whilst lecturing ordinary people on how to behave.

As for De Niro... really? He's just an actor who plays a credible hard man. Like Vinny Jones or Danny Dyer he would wilt before some of the people on my road, mostly cos they wouldn't give a fuck about him.

This is a normal post I got a warning email about my "conduct" in the game
I had it from launch day, since along with The Last Guardian it was one of the reasons I'd got a PS4 in the first place (and TLG absolutely exceeded expectations). I played it to galaxy-centre-reaching completion. Twice. I was annoyed with it, not least for the fact that there was apparently no way at all to interact with anyone in any way.

So how can your "conduct" in a game that was notorious for its complete lack of the promised interaction lead to a warning email?

I hit upon a way to interact with my fellow players, at least in one direction. The galaxy is big - blahdyblahdybillion stars, quincytillion planets etc... the chances of ever finding a system discovered and named by anyone else are next to zero. Except...

Except everyone is heading to the core. There's a layer of systems around the outside of the centre of the galaxy that everyone has to pass through to get to the only objective in this otherwise entirely motiveless game. Which means if you get there and start vanity-naming as many of those systems as possible, there's a reasonable chance other players will see them. On my second playthrough, I spent a couple of days just jumping from system to system around the sphere that surrounds the galactic centre. A few had already been discovered and named, confirming my theory. All the undiscovered ones got a name of my own devising. Most of them were just things like "MOST DISAPPOINTING GAME EVER" or "I WISH I'D BOUGHT AN XBOX" or "HELLO GAMES ARE LIARS". They weren't specific, but I'm guessing that the email referred to me naming a system "DIE SEAN MURRAY DIE". Antisocial behaviour, or valid comment? You decide. I don't care.

My advice to people disappoint with NMS is to get Elite:Dangerous. It's the game NMS wishes it was. It is (or can be) a long, tedious grind to get anywhere, but hey - space is big. Really big. You just won't believe... and so on. Dump the amateurish cartoon nonsense and tool around an actually somewhat accurate recreation of our own, real galaxy.
