The 1991 movie was my introduction to the Addams family, and, yeah, I had a VHS of it that I watched way too many times as a kid.
You don’t really see the result of that scene, or have to deal with any actual murder or on-screen violence, everything is played for laugh.
It’s very similar in humour to the first Men in Black movie, also by Barry Sonnenfeld. Very cool cast, especially Raul Julia.
Not sure about other adaptations, but the first Barry Sonnenfeld movie literally begins with that exact scene.
The reason they’re cheaper is because the carrier is expecting to keep you locked in their network.
Not worth it IMO. Similar to cheaper phones with loads of preinstalled crap, you’re not getting a discount, you’re signing a deal to be farmed.
I don’t buy very expensive phones, but I try to find ones that are mostly free of crap (not easy), and I’m ready to pay a bit extra for that.
Most people are indoctrined into fear of the afterlife. It’s obvious it doesn’t work.
Echo, your “boyfriend” was so vain and stupid that he literally invented narcissism, and then died from it.
In my experience, cats usually do when they pass their paw over their head to clean themselves. While dogs don’t seem to give a shit that their ear is backwards for hours.

(I got half of this from memory. I shouldn’t be proud of that.)
Little known fact, it was really a huge statue of Odysseus making an obscene gesture. A bunch of drunk Trojan frat boys loved it and couldn’t resist bringing it in.
Cassandra was appalled.
I am more amazed by the fact that in 2118 they have 1930’s journalists really.
His baseless methods, who were proven non-efficient for treatment in studies, are what is still taught today in many psychology universities, with heavy lobbyism from Freudian-Lacanian psychologists. Some of these universities almost exclusively teach that (especially French ones).
It’s more like instead of building from the laws and mathematics that worked in Newton’s works and experiment to try to refine them and put them to the test, today’s physics had taken into account his views on theology and alchemy and taught them as is.
Except it would still be missing the part about ruining lives by being used as a practical field of medicine.
If only. Thanks to him, today we still got con artists with medical degrees making up stuff like “Yo momma loved you so much she made you autistic” and achieving nothing but more depression and fake memories.
Psychoanalysis is so ingrained in pop culture most people don’t ever realize there are people trying to treat psychology as an actual science out there.
Honestly though? Regardless of who said it, it already sounds like bad advice to me.
Give it a quick spin and if you’re fast enough, it’ll just shake everything a bit but everyone around is going to puke.
My VR headset can create pretty accurate 3D maps of my environment like nothing, and it only uses cameras to do so, so I can imagine it’s doable.
Then, yeah, it doesn’t “make sense” for that thing to externalize that.
There’s something not working in this article.
They say it “makes sense” for the device to basically send the plan of your home to some online server, because the vacuum is not powerful enough to process this data on its own. This is already a bit horrifying to me, but okay.
And then when that guy blocked it out, the vacuum “worked for a while” before something sent the kill command through an update.
How come is it still working at all if navigation requires that server?
The thing in the lower right is not a signature, it’s the logo for a mobile game.
Fuck off with your shirty attempt at a disguised mobile game ad.

Checks out. They were already “vibe socializing” long before an AI could fail at that in their stead.
It’s what is referenced here, yes.
Though really, I’ve visited quite a few old castles, and every time the historian guides told the same story : the medieval boiling oil dropping thing is a myth.
Oil was way too precious to waste like that. Those murderholes did exist, especially over the gates, but boiling water did the job just right, along with whatever rocks they could use for impact.
Also, in a coastal fortress I visited, apparently heated sand was a thing too. Quite vicious since it got caught and stayed in armour joints. As a famous person once said “it’s coarse, rough and irritating and it gets everywhere”.
