      • Jurassic Park (or World). Man, Dominion was a turd. The opening scene was a cringe and the whole felt like I was watching four movies in one.
      • Terminator. It’s pretty much dead after Salvation. T3 was fine, ironically this was my first Terminator film I watched.
      • MCU
      • Star Wars

      In Hollywood? Everything and anything will be remade and continued. Even a flop will eventually return. I don’t doubt the dark universe (with Tom cruise and Russell Crowe) will be revisited after a few years.

        What’s unique with Fast & Furious franchise is that they combine practical effects and extensive CGi at the same time, and it’s glorious when you watch them in theaters. lol

      Working from home, while living in an isolated mountain cliff surrounded by forests is a dream I’ve always have had–until I realize the logistics of actually fulfilling that dream, lol!

          Yun nga eh!! Dun pa lang sa hassle na mag-connect ka ng internet connection, kuryente, at tubig eh. O di kaya mag-iinstall ka ng sattelite dish, generator, tapos deep well?

          Nakakapagod isipin!

      There’s something about the smile though. Something that kinda feels sinister and threatening. It’s like it’s about to prod the carabao into a charge.

    This is such a first world problem thing, I guess, but here goes.

    A software update broke my workflow, thus I can’t do much work today. If that’s not enough, I’m also temporarily swamped with tasks that all of a sudden got dumped on me today. Shit.

    To go back up a little bit, a package that I didn’t even think would interact with ungoogled-chromium got updated earlier. I did my updates as usual and rebooted once they’re done. Nothing seemed to be broken–until I had to open chromium. It flat-out refused to start. Since there’s no time to fix whatever had gone wrong, was forced to do testing on Firefox! (It went well somehow, fortunately, except for some visual quirks and UI not working as they have been in chrome.)

    I should really just do software updates (and other maintenance stuff) on weekends, but I’ve been lulled into a false sense of security, and false confidence of being able to quickly fix things when shit does happen. Oh how wrong I was. Lesson learned, I guess?

    Does this mini rant belong here? IDK. I just wanted to vent out a little.

      I have learned to stop running updates, actually. My last two OS updates (Mac) broke so many things in my dev environment that finding a solution wasn’t easy and led me to reformat my computer both times.

      I should really think about setting up a backup.

        Minsan din kasi kailangan ng updates to keep stuff up and running eh. I’ve been advised when I first installed this OS I’m using (btw), that I should at least go over the list of updated packages in order to at least anticipate any problems and to decide to delay updating until there’s enough time to deal with them.

        The person who recommended my current OS to me said: “updating is a user error,” and while hyperbolic, I’m starting to see where that sentiment is coming from.

        And yes, setting up a backup is a really good idea–though I’d be the first to admit that had I not been dragged kicking and screaming into making a back-up, I would never have done it. There’s just a big (mental) hurdle, I suppose? Now, my system basically runs a command to sync my files onto a backup. I didn’t even have to think about it once the set-up (which is surprisingly minimal, just an rsync command, plus a cron job to run it) has been done.
