  • I ever manually corrected and uploaded the subtitles (language and sync) of the .avi/DivX version of Fight Club. That’s like more than 20 years ago.

    I have it in my iTunes Movies (or whatever it’s called) collection now, and watch it maybe once a year. The final song still gives me goosebumps when I hear it out in the wild.

    That and Taxi Driver are my most watched movies. The Taxi Driver sounds and soundtrack are just so smoothing, I can comfortably sleep to it.

    Bringing Out the Dead probably comes 3rd.






  • I’ve always thought that Google knows what I want because Google knows how I’d ask for what I want. It wasn’t the first but for sure the longest time I have used a search engine. It’s hard to break free from habits.

    For many years I’ve been trying to default DDG just to use the !g all the time and eventually get fed up and switch back. But besides YT Family the search is the only thing left.

    This year I haven’t changed it back (yet) although occasionally I do use it, mostly for local searches. Even with adblockers and all, G is prioritizing sites I have already been on, and often I need some new perspectives in my searches. DDG feels like I have to keep my mind sharp, sometimes that means rewording what I want.
