It's a rash from collar Netanyahu leads him around by.

That thing’s lucky I’m not armed!

These two things are not remotely the same.

I have all of SK's books. The Dark Tower series is the only set I've never read, as I couldn't get through the Gun Slinger. Probably his worst writing, and I enjoyed his earlier Bachman stories.

I think King hated it, even though he directed it :) The worst film associated with him was the Lawnmower Man, I think - they just used King's name to sell tickets - the film had nothing whatsoever to do with the book...

Couple of Easter Eggs from Duel:
1) In the scene where the driver mistakes a pest control car for a cop, the name of the business on the car is Spielberg spelled backwards.
2) The sound the truck makes as it goes over the cliff is the same one the shark in Jaws makes when it sinks after exploding.

That would pretty much be the plot of Maximum Overdrive - not one of Stephen King's best :)

THE. REGIMES. ARE. NOT. VICTIMS.

I was about to post the same photo - yes I know this. I’m fully aware of the history of the region. I don’t think there is any point continuing though. Goodbye.

You’re not saying anything I didn’t already know. However, thinking that all the Arab countries are filled with non sentient drones who cannot be blamed for anything that happens within their own countries is simplistic. The regimes in these places took power and aim to keep it. They’re not victims.

Yes I do know the history - I’m completely against this regime change too. I don’t support Israel or anyone else bombing anywhere, but that doesn’t change the current situation. If you’re female you would have a better life in Israel than Iran (or some other Arab countries) That’s just a fact.

You are giving them the benefit of the doubt. You’re doing it in this very post. I’m not sure why you can’t see it.

Iran IS blatantly evil. Maybe look into how the population have to live there - especially women. They have NO democracy, they haven’t been able to choose leadership for a century. You know they’re also supplying the drones Russia is using to kill men, women and children in Ukraine right?

Propaganda never shows anything. It only hides things. There is no point continuing this as you seem to have such hatred for one side that you’re happy to accept anything to confirm your preconceptions from another evil regime. There is a term for this but I’m not going to be rude. Have a nice day.

You don’t seem to be able to accept the fact that an evil regime in Iran is just as likely to lie as Israel. The first casualty of war is the truth and you are falling for blatant propaganda here. The difference between us is that I would call it out from both sides.

You realise Iran is an evil dictatorship that routinely kills its own people and has one of the most repressive regimes on Earth, right? You’re blindly believing them based on nothing here…

You’re talking about two completely different conflicts and military scenarios. When a country attacks another they don’t instantly think β€œwe really need to bomb the girls schools first to gain the advantage”. Iran obviously used the most incendiary propaganda so that people would spread it…

As far as I know, the military tatgets are far more obvious in Iran, and so targeting a random girls school when it would obviously be morally outrageous and indefensible and have zero strategic impact is ridiculous. Don’t blindly trust propaganda from any side.

I think people should realise there is going to be a LOT of disinformation from all sides now. Taking, at face value, Iran claiming Israel targeted a girl's school in their opening attack is frankly idiotic. They'd obviously go after military targets. I'm expecting Israel/US to blatantly lie also.

... I then thought it might be cool to have a watch display that's larger than the screen, so wrote that :) Side-note, I was working on event installations at the time, and this display was an Easter Egg if you interacted with a screen in one of the London banks in the right way! #electronics

A while back I was designing a product to use this circular display. So just for fun, to "test my driver code" I wrote some watch designs for it (it was never used in a watch :) I always thought the idea of Pacman characters drawing the time would look cool :) #gaming #pacman #electronics #arduino

Just reverse engineering a proprietary adapter box that’s incredibly overpriced and probably has no real purpose beyond creating vendor lock in… #electronics #hacking

Step 1: NEVER connect it to the internet unless you want the brand to load it up with more and more adverts and other slop in the background. If you must connect it for Netflix or something, look into using Pi-hole to block the trash.

I don’t usually even see it - looks like my filters reset. Just been adding them again so hopefully this is the last time for a while…

People say this every time he's slightly critical, but he always disappoints. He makes too much money riding Trump's dick and bringing the billionaire ghouls onto his show.
