Cannes has a big market. Hundreds of movies are sold globally in Cannes, at the same time many producers find funding for their big budget and indie films. Netflix buys movies for a few dollars and produce a mere handful of movies every year. Cannes is still a very important platform for the movie business.

Netflix has no space in this old world. They simply put online any movie and people may decide to watch it or not. Meanwhile everyone else has to find distribution and pay for advertising.

So people are commenting on a movie they haven't seen it yet.

I think it's in the tone of The Empire Strikes Back. It's an emotional ride! and the producers didn't touch their heart to tell a story, and if you follow the archs of the SW stories, you know what will happen in the second movie of this trilogy.

It's very Seth Rogen driven comedy, funny at moments but most part of it smells a little like US propaganda. It depicts a smart, maniac and manipulative Kim Jung Un. Funny enough, we know CIA it's capable of trying to murder a foreign leader.

This city was built in mind to have a car, so there's no way to solve the problem with wider streets. Other megacities have solved this problem with better public transportation.

What FB should have is an "I sympathize" button.

99% of iPhone users buy a case for their thin devices.

So, instead of selling PCs, vendors should advertise their equipment as bundles:

-- "Behold! The new ASUS this-and-that PC plus Windows bundle!"
-- "Do you have ASUS this-and-that PC plus Linux?"
-- "Oh, we only sell PC-Windows bundles, sorry"
-- "Then I only want the PC."
-- "Then go to a PC vendor. This is a bundle vendor."

Problem solved.

We have very long summer breaks. My kids have the French calendar, two whole months for vacarions, and a week break every six weeks.

Civilization comes with war. Warriors need a lot of testosterone and battles lead to anihilation of hi-testosterone individuals. I find some evolutive path to decrease of testosterone.

Maybe the videos are 30FPS but the player is doing some interpolation to achieve 60FPS, like modern TV displays.
