Lone Survivor (2013)

 

6.5/10

 

Overrated imo. I did not find the movie to be as realistic as some people say it is. For one the guys made some really strange and dumb decisions like releasing the hostage before having a confirmation they were getting out of there. The Afghans show no knowledge of combat (cover, aiming, etc ...) but yet are able to find the seals easily. From what i know it is not that easy to spot someone wearing camouflage and the well trained seals could have been anywhere since they moved after releasing the hostage. Also the action sometime is really a little bit over the top. Not bad and worth a watch but not worthy of all the praise. I highly doubt this is the way it really went.

 

Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom (2013)

 

7/10

 

Could have been better. Movie is too short and doesn't take enough risk. A by the book yet solid and honest movie.

Quai d'Orsay (2013)

 

6.5/10

 

Totally ridiculous movie. This is a 2 hours movie without any content. Since this is a political satire i would say it's pretty accurate XD. Excellent movie and well worth a watch.

Space Station 76, 2014

 

I'm not sure what the point of putting the story in Space.

 

Seemed more like a soft poRn movie.

 

No real ending.

 

Nice sets, special F/X, and good actors.

 

2 out of 5  stars.

 

Not a movie I would watch twice.

4/5 Just cause the OST is pretty awesome, who knew Keira could sing...

 

 

Also, a little bit of drama here and there. Fairly "modern" movie. Also Ruffalo nails it.

Gone Girl, 2014

 

Best movie of 2014 that I have seen.

 

I guessed the general plot about one-fourth of the way in:

 

His wife was framing him.

 

I guess that's just the writer in me. :shifty:

 

I was a bit surprised by the ending, expecting someone else to die.

 

Worth watching again --- 4/5 stars.

Days of Future Past. It was really good but I think overrated a little because I was kind of expecting it to be amazing based on what others had told me.

 

hmm.   i though it was amazing!  :)    best xmen movie for sure, and the best comic book movie for me too!   kept me interested all the way through.

 

 

 

 

finally watched guardians of the galaxy.      meh!     decent fun.    a bit childish for me.   easy to watch, but the humor did not work for me.   even boring at times.

 

should have waited for home release and not bothered to go to cinema.

It was good fun. Kind of a shame it bombed at the box office from what I read.

 

Yeah I think it did, well they doubled the production cost with $369.2 million vs $178 million but on the opening weekend, globally it only grossed $20.1 million

    • RapidRAW 1.5.7

      By Copernic · Posted

      RapidRAW 1.5.7 by Razvan Serea RapidRAW is a beautiful, non-destructive, GPU‑accelerated RAW image editor designed for speed and simplicity. It uses a lightweight (~30 MB), efficient code base built with Rust, React and Tauri. Ideal for Lightroom workflows, it offers rich editing tools—exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, whites/blacks, tone curves, HSL mixer, dehaze, vignetting, film grain, sharpening, clarity and noise reduction—processed in real-time on the GPU. Features include intuitive masking (brush, linear, radial, AI-powered subject and foreground detection), generative edit layers (via ComfyUI), 32‑bit precision, and full RAW format support through rawler. RapidRAW also provides library management (folder navigation, ratings, metadata, EXIF viewer), batch operations, export presets (JPEG/PNG/TIFF), sidecar editing (.rrdata), undo/redo history, customizable UI themes, smooth animations, resizable panels, and preset copy/paste. A modern high-performance Lightroom alternative with polished UX and creative tools, RapidRAW brings powerful photo editing to photographers seeking speed, responsive GPU feedback, and streamlined workflows. RapidRAW v1.5.7 release notes: This update serves as a direct follow-up to the core architectural migration introduced in v1.5.6. While the transition to a more modular state management system marked a significant step forward for RapidRAW's stability and long-term maintainability, it also introduced several edge cases and regressions within the library and editing workflows. This release focuses on addressing those issues, with a particular emphasis on a complete overhaul of library performance to ensure smooth and responsive browsing following the refactoring. It also resolves inconsistencies in the copy-and-paste workflow and expands RapidRAW's accessibility by adding support for eight additional languages.

    • JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements by David Uzondu JetBrains has released the fifth EAP version of Rider 2026.2, bringing a faster startup flow with the new non-modal startup screen and quality-check hooks for Claude Code and Codex. In the latest EAP release, Rider now has newly bundled "quality-check" hooks that run background tests on code edits before the external agent proceeds. For example, after Claude Code rewrites a class, Rider immediately triggers a PostToolUse hook that analyzes the code for syntax errors and formatting warnings. It then passes those findings back to the model as feedback, allowing the agent to fix its own output before finalizing the task. If Rider detects compilation errors, the IDE prevents the agent from treating the task as complete, while minor formatting warnings simply help guide the model toward better output. The "Explain with AI" feature can now tackle tricky build errors directly from the console, helping .NET developers who frequently wrestle with multi-targeting failures and MSBuild errors. JetBrains introduced Explain with AI back in the 2024.1 release cycle. With this feature, instead of forcing developers to copy long diagnostics into a separate chat window, Rider now lets you trigger these explanations directly from the error source. In similar EAP news, JetBrains recently opened the first EAP for IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2, with features that appeal to both those who are into AI-assisted coding and those who prefer "classic" manual development. For manual developers, the release adds revamped dependency completion for Maven and Gradle build scripts, which pulls data directly from the local cache to suggest relevant versions. It also brings the Spring Debugger update, displaying security indicators next to endpoints to visualize secured routes during runtime. In addition to database migration tools for Flyway and Liquibase, this build introduces a Hibernate debugger that shows the exact SQL or HQL queries that the framework plans to execute, letting developers jump directly to the Java code that triggered them.
