Captain Philips.


Not his best film, but I'm glad it has won the Yenster a lot of new fans.

10/10

 

The US movie of the year for me. Displacing The Counselor to a second place. Hell, it's maybe the best US movie since No country for old men.

7/10

 

Terrific performances from Matthew McConaughey (A surprise for me) and Jared Letto (The scene in front of the mirror was chilling). The script was so-so. The cinematography was very well done.

3/5 - suppose I don't get LARPing, Glau looked good though!

3/5 here too. Would of rated it lower but Summer saved it. Peter Dinklage did what he could but I think it was just a pretty average movie all over.

Planes: 4.5 / 10

 

It should have gotten a 7.5/ 10 but

* -1 for having an atrocious voice acting in French

* -1 for having the very same underdog/ugly duckling/fear your own fear/regrets story than Cars

* -1 for the abuse of computers: this is 2014, there are plenty of computer rendered movies all around, no need anymore to show that a company can model water or skies.

 

In the end, what could have been a very enjoyable family movie passes for a non-subtle ploy to sell plastic toys

    • App, useful & Teams shouldn't be used in the same sentence.
    • New Outlook for Windows and Web is getting a simple but very useful email feature by Sayan Sen Recently Microsoft put up a blog post highlighting not one, not two, but 15 total reasons why it feels you should switch to New Outlook already. If that was not enough, the company is bringing another new feature soon that could finally compel you to switch over to the new app. According to a recent update on the Microsoft 365 roadmap, the tech giant is making changes to how message sorting works when users choose criteria besides the traditional options of From, Subject, or Date Received. The idea is to provide better options for the attribute being used for sorting and make it easier to understand why messages appear in a particular order. For those unfamiliar Outlook already allows users to sort emails using a variety of fields including sender, category, importance, subject, and message size. Users can access these options through the Filter menu in Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. With the upcoming change, whenever users sort by a field other than From, Subject, or Date Received, Outlook will automatically display an additional column showing the value being used for the sort. For example, if messages are sorted by Size, a Size column will appear in the message list, allowing users to immediately see the data that determines the ordering of emails. Microsoft believes this should make sorting behavior simpler and reduce the need to manually adjust views or inspect individual messages. Support for sorting by Flag Due Date is also coming and should be especially be helpful for users who rely on email flags to manage follow-up tasks and deadlines. The feature is listed under Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 564803 and is expected to reach general availability beginning later this month itself (June 2026). You can find the entry here. As always though, users should keep in mind that roadmap timelines can change and rollout schedules may occasionally be adjusted by Microsoft. Outlook for Web is also set to receive this feature.
    • That is true. but the liability side of my balance sheet is clean and has been for decades.  Nobody comes a knocking,  calling or writing harassing me for the money i owe them.😎👍  Haven't dealt with "a money changer" in decades and like Jesus it was in Jerusalem.  Don't have much money, but have even less stress in my life.👍👍     P.S.  Sorry, can't walk on water or change it to wine,  
    • Maybe ? DLSS Swapper (can swap the DLSS/FSR/XeSS versions) as long as the game (typically online/competitive) doesn't checks for file tampering. You can try different version(s) or update if not the current version of the FSR. https://github.com/beeradmoore/dlss-swapper
