🎬 Christine
Another classic where I don't know whether I had seen this as a teenager. But I really couldn't remember any scenes. This was fantastic, though. Apart from obvious technological or cultural clues, you wouldn't think this is such an old movie. It really holds up.
Now, the film actually manages to portrait Christine as and actually evil car. The stunts are top-notch - oh my, the whole scene at the gas station! - and the special effects when Christine repairs herself are an absolute sensation. Great characters, too - it's been quite clever how the evilness progressively affects Arnie's own mood.
Bonus was seeing this on the big screen, getting to fully experience the film's awesome sound and music.
🎬 Longlegs
Has tons of atmosphere and Nicolas Cage as Longlegs is actually really creepy. Lovingly filmed. And great acting. I thought the plot pace was a little odd (it's high-paced in the beginning and the end, and in the middle quite slow), and the resolution was not all that satisfying. Overall, though, I was really into it, and didn't notice how time flew by at the cinema.

Twenty years ago this past February, Kevin Marks and I introduced #microformats in a conference presentation.Full post: https://tantek.com/2024/044/t1/twenty-years-microformatsAside: This is an even shorter summary of that post from ~200 days ago, which #Mastodon readers never got due to a Mastodon #federation bug (details in https://tantek.com/t5Yo1).Since early 2023, here are the top three updates & interesting developments in microformats:1. Growing rel=me adoption for distributed verification (✅ in Mastodon etc.) * Wikipedia, Threads, omg.lol2. Proposal to merge #microformats2 h-review into h-entry, since in practice (e.g. on #indieweb) reviews are just entries with a bit more.3. #metaformats adoptions, implementations, iteration

Uff! Brutal! And really menacing and suspenseful. Liked this a lot! The gore effects, that sequence when she enters the other body, and how this looked, sounded and felt in general. A few minus points for missing explanations and the what I felt not-so-logical ending. I'd watch this again!

I wasn't planning on joining Nicole when she put on this movie. But then the characters and plot drew me in. I wanted to know how and why the three ended up where they ended up (the film is very non-linear, which I liked for the most part). The acting was great, too.
But unfortunately, it's downhill from there. It's increasingly less about Art - the only really likeable person - and only very slowly unveils more and more about the relationship between the other two. The soundtrack was irritating. And the ending is not very plausible and it's a collage of infuriatingly endless slow-motion shots.
This is my first attempt at soldering switches into a keyboard…in fact, haven’t tried to solder anything since college. I also didn’t like the open board, so tried to 3d print one…from a template…needs refining, but good enough for now.

📖 Tiere essen – Jonathan Safran Foer
Es ist ja nicht so, als hätte ich mich nicht schon öfter mit diesem Thema auseinandergesetzt. Aber diese Buch hat mir den notwendingen Anstoß gegen keine halben Sachen mehr zu machen und mich vollständig vegetarisch zu ernähren. Diese Buch ist natürlich keine leichte Kost. Aber das sollte es bitte auch nicht sein, wenn doch die industrielle Fleischproduktion und Massentierhaltung so ein riesen Haufen barbarische Scheiße ist.
Der Autor selbst geht trotzdem noch recht diplomatisch an die Sache ran, und versucht nicht einem (s)eine Meinung aufzudrücken (obwohl er diese trotzdem für sich sehr klar formuliert). Und mir gefiel auch, dass verschiedene Stimmen und gar Kompromiss-Lösungen beschrieben werden. Für mich aber lässt das alles nur eine Schlussfolgerung zu.
