Another 8m12s mile in 100F.  So slow otherwise, it's tempting to crush walnuts 1 day early but slower.


Sciatica evolved over the last 9 months to the point of the left leg going numb from lying in bed.  It has responded to eccentric strides & not sitting down.  It might respond to a slower stride rate.  There was a step up in sitting last year to try to boost the posterior tibialis.

Slowly working through the mission impossible reckoning series, the money shot was of course


Heroine saving Tom Cruise. 

The heroine was 1 of the dumber characters in movie history, but she finally came unto her own after the transformation into Cruise 2.   Sadly, her train sequence was useless since there was no way to stop the locomotive.


Aside from heroines saving Tom Cruise, the collapsing train scene & the car chase scene were the too long scenes.



The train fight & motorcycle chases were the 2 moments lions thought they already watched the movie.  There's some definite reuse, but the time between these movies is getting compressed.


The spoiler character definitely over did his part.  No matter how many clues he got, he still didn't get it.



So the villain had a lot of knife kills & there was a trend of all of them coming back to life.  Lions suspect the short stack heroine of the previous movies comes back to life & evolves into a love triangle between the 2 heroines.  Of course, it's not the headline it was before polyamory was normal.

The problem is Cruise's heroine sidekicks have to be really short so they're never very dominant.  Despite being more dominant than the last sidekick, Atwell is manely a bit part in marvell movies.  She got really scrawny after hitting 40 & getting married.  She was a grubby millennial 10 years ago.






After finishing the series, the heroines didn't save Tom Cruise in episode 2.



They saved the scottish guy.




Never figured out who was the poor fool pilot Tom Cruise killed off to get in the air.  The villain didn't have any sidekicks.


Then the villain finally died by basically being written out.

    It was time to take on the lion kingdom's 1st 1 star movie. It honestly wasn't as bad as the Dictator, Bedazzled, Monty Python.  Most of the hate was from comparing it to the classic.  Visuals were good for animals who are into castles.  Wonder Heroine as the villain was a good twist.  It was bat shit boring.  Tedious jobs like dialog writing are all automated now & that's definitely not as bad as other movies.  Automated 3D model generation has made modern visuals very lavish.  If only that level of detail could be done in realtime for VR goggles.    Zegler was back from her previous engagement in district 12.   The mane redeeming factor for lions was evil Wonder Heroine.     & finally the Joan of Arc scene everyone hated.    & the ending just fizzled.  It seems they're trying to depart from the physicality of past heroine warriors & make them more like housewives.  It's h...

 Finally tracked down the Sun bootloader font from many decades ago & put it in Cinelerra as gallant12x22.  Put Sun Gallant Demi into the goog to get useful results. https://github.com/dim13/gallant/tree/master/ttf   It's a fixed point font in an archaic format.  Some guy converted it into a TTF with a lot of antialiasing.  He has a PNG image showing no antialiasing.  It has to be set to size 22 & requires a threshold to get rid of the antialiasing.  Freetype might be shifting it 1/2 pixel vertically. It had a kind of curiosity value, but lions have had no need for any fixed point fonts besides the 24pt Sony of CAEDM fame. Another hit said it was 1 of the fonts available in kernel framebuffer mode.  Lions haven't used kernel framebuffer mode in decades.  It could possibly replace 24pt Sony if lions wrote a fixed point converter. As for the other Sun lore, there's some potato cam footage of the Sun flight simulator, Aviator.  You ...

  The lunar eclipse situation. Diced tomato spagetti 2.  Plain noodles shining through the diced tomatos, meatballs, oregano, pepper, & cheese still has what it takes.  It's better than watered down sauces with tiny bits of meat. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Once again pondered if the S & P is another Nikkei 225. The nikkei is back where it last collapsed, 40 years ago, with a similar rate of increase in the last 25% but slower in the preceding years.  Maybe the index fund play has worn out or maybe it hasn't. Both the S&P & the Nikkei doubled in the last 5 years.  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
