Also origin stories. I think 4 out 5 fantastic four movies are their origin. Same with superman and spider, and probably all of them.

I think one reason for that is, those are the types of movies that people might prefer to watch in a theater. If the story takes place in homes and offices, and there is no magic or explosions, you might as watch it on TV.

I used to go the theaters all the time, no I hardly ever go.

In no particular order:

1. Way to expense for an experience that, at best, is marginally better than watching it on television.
2. Annoying people in theaters who talk non-stop and use their phones.
3. Movies are not very good. Uninteresting stories. Uninteresting characters. Rehashed woke crap. Nothing that is thought provoking in the least.
4. Time travel and parallel universes mean that nothing that happens actually happens, so who cares? Main character dies? No problem, some time travel will fix that right up.
5. It will be streaming soon enough anyway.

I used to be able to stream smoothly with Firefox, now I cannot. I don't know what changed. But I gave up on firefox for just this reason.

> What stops Microsoft from locking down Office?

Commercial interests. If MS betrayed the trust of the customers, that brazenly, it would not be good for business. MS is an international company, they do work for, or represent the USA.

BTW: I am no fan of MS. Far from it.

I hate to say it. I have used Linux as my primary desktop for 20+ years. I am using Linux now.
Most of LibreOffice is more than adequate for what I do, but Impress leaves a lot to be desired.

Because only Republicans have been in office for the last 50 years?

I have some old floppies I want to get date off (if I still can). I have some old floppy drives around, but they don't work, even on my ten year old desktop.

The article seems to agree with the guy on slashdot.

> “I’m an optimist, in the sense that I think we will build a sustainable future,” Wagner says. “But it’s going to take 30 or 40 years, and by then, it’s going to be too late for a lot of the creatures that I love.

I think BSD administration is easier, and much more UNIX like.

For example, If you want to use a static IP instead of dynamic, it is a very simple one or lines to change. And it stays the for years, if not decades.

With Linux, first you have to consider which distro you are using. Then there is a systemd way of doing things, and a UNIX way of doing things.

I find BSD more straight forward and consistent.

Except the gold supply cannot be doubled overnight.

> Yet, Trump is saying to this day Medicare and Medicare is fraud, waste, and abuse.

Trump said no such thing.
What Trump did was uncover huge amounts of fraud, waste, and abuse, within those systems.
Trump is trying to deny benefits to people who are not entitled to those benefits.
This is being done to keep the systems from going broke. Because if the system went broke, the deserving would be denied their benefits.
