both parts were pretty good imo. second one was a bit long, could have cut out the sappy letter from stanley at the end or just had less individual scenes with one-note scares

Yeah, I skimmed it real quick but the gist is that you should assume that your platform is going to be infested with bad actors so try and anticipate how a total shithead would abuse the platform kind of in the same way you'd pay a white hat hacker to break into your system so you can figure out how to defend against it.

Hell of a headline though.

gonna start offering my services to Silicon Valley as a white hat shithead so they can test how their services would respond to real shitheads

hence why it made up the bulk of the trailer. ben's was dumb, bill's took way too long, and ritchie's was okay but just so tiresome. eddy had the other totally good one imo

they decided to bring the kid stuff back even though the movie was obviously meant to be split on the kid adult line.

I saw part 1 and it did nothing like the book to imply that Derry’s residents were full of suburban psychopaths, sometimes called republicans. Of course Pennywise was drawn to it

This is a normal take that no one is supposed to publish.

CEOs are disproportionately sociopaths and that’s the way boards like it.

Or, you know, clickbait that has little to do with the text of the article.

fahrenheit is better for hotter temperatures (gently caress saying 30 degrees is hot) but celsius makes more sense for colder temps. that's my weird take on it

Fahrenheit is based on Kelvin which is technically more accurate. It'd make more sense if the freezing point of water was 0 degrees fahrenheit.

Celsius is the more bourgeois system

If you want a physics based one that rules use Planck temperatures

This is not true. Kelvin is just Celsius plus 273 degrees. Kelvin is based on Celsius, and Farenheit is independent of both. There's not a "more accurate" set of units for recording temperature.

water is also pretty arbitrary

nothing fundamentally wrong with a temperature system that gives humans a rough 0-100 point scale of real-world temperatures that stretch from "cold as balls" to "hot as balls"

Compared to entropy and atom count, turns out temperature is useful to humans but not really that transcendental of our use of it so it's just not worth it to hunt for a 'true' system.

the celsius scale has roughly 100 degrees between the coldest and hottest temperatures on earth, centered on the freezing point of water. it just makes sense
