did anyone notice in the trailer.. that there is a scar on Pitt's throat?

I read the first 2 chapters of the script (didn't want to read it all and spoil it :p) but the scene from the trailer is in it, and in the script it says:

"The scar will never once be mentioned"

That is great! A good catch on both accounts; observing the scar, and revealing its (lack of) nature. :D

I probably shouldn't have put quotation marks around it, as those words aren't actually said by anyone!

It's just mentioned in the script, showing that the scar will remain a mystery throughout and just adds a bit of edge to that character I guess.

I hope they have those posters for the other Basterds as well. I doubt they will though, because Pitt is the most recognizable among them; but it would make for a ****ing awesome set of wall/door posters if they had them all.

I hope so to, or at least release a big poster I loved the first poster with the baseball bat so epic.

The war genre has been done to death, there are at least 3 BIG movies each year that about the same stuff, and about another 7 based on the time period, so I was kind of reluctant to follow this, but looking and how cool Kill Bill ended and that Brad Pitt is it, it's must be ****in awesome.

Ok, I though you were being sarcastic at the end of your post, so I was harsh, but if you weren't I will say (in defense of the film; )

This is not just another "Brad Pitt" movie. You will be sorely mistaken if you expect this to be "Ocean's Fifteen" This is not even "Kill Bill meets WWII"...if you don't get it, you don't get it....and nobody can someone for that at this point as the movie is not out yet. I just say, even with preconceptions, wouldn't quite count it out just yet.

Edit: this is mostly a bad post because I caught what I said wrong at the wrong time. So; Pick it is as you will!

but then I will always question why . Everything I do see on screen should be significant. Especially something as big as the scar. Like he should be dead? but he's not? like WTF? lol.

    • Microsoft adds reusable skills and finance data connectors to Copilot in Excel

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Microsoft adds reusable skills and finance data connectors to Copilot in Excel by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft is giving Copilot in Excel a collection of new features aimed squarely at finance teams. The update introduces reusable instructions for common tasks, connections to services such as FactSet and Morningstar, and a better way to review what Copilot intends to do before it starts changing a workbook. The most interesting addition is 'Skills' finally coming to Copilot in Excel. Skills let companies teach Copilot how to handle a recurring process, so employees do not need to write the same detailed prompt every month. Users can create skills that can specify the steps Copilot should follow, along with the required layout, formulas, and formatting. Microsoft says users can create their own skills by saving a SKILL.md file in OneDrive. The file is written using Markdown and tells Copilot when and how to perform the task. Once it is available, a user can select the skill in the Copilot pane or mention it in a prompt using the @ symbol. There is also a library of prebuilt finance skills for customers who do not want to create their own. Microsoft plans to let developers distribute additional skills through the Microsoft Marketplace and the Microsoft 365 Admin Center, with LSEG, Ramp, Rogo, samaya.ai, Velixo, and Vena among the first partners involved. The company says that it is also expanding the external data that Copilot can access from inside Excel. New connectors are being added for CB Insights, Daloopa, FactSet, Morningstar, PitchBook, and S&P Global data through technology developed by Kensho. There is a catch, however. Accessing these services may require a separate subscription from the relevant data provider, so a Microsoft 365 Copilot licence will not necessarily unlock all of them. FactSet is also only available in preview for now, with general availability planned for July. Microsoft is also trying to make Copilot’s workbook edits easier to inspect. Users can switch to a planning mode that shows which sheets, cell ranges, formulas, and assumptions Copilot intends to work with before it begins making changes. Once the work is complete, the Show Changes pane can distinguish edits made by Copilot from those made by human collaborators. The update continues Microsoft’s push to turn Excel Copilot from a chatbot into an agent that can carry out longer tasks. The company previously added an Agent Mode capable of planning and completing multi-step Excel work. Microsoft also recently acquired financial AI startup Fintool, another indication that finance is becoming a key target for its Excel AI strategy. Prebuilt skills, personalization, workbook rules, external connectors, planning mode, and Copilot attribution in Show Changes are generally available to Microsoft 365 Copilot customers using Excel on the web, Windows, and macOS. Custom skills are initially available to Microsoft 365 Insiders on Windows and Mac starting today. Microsoft plans to make them generally available across Windows, Mac, and the web over the next month. Partner-built skills are expected during the third quarter of the year. Availability may still differ depending on region and licensing.

      Exactly. They serve different (although related) purposes.
    • Microsoft Authenticator - Constant Login Approval Requests

      Do not enter the code under any circumstances, or you will be sorry. It's definitely and most likely a hacking attempt.  That happened to me a couple of years ago, and I kept receiving those prompts for months. It's simply the attacker trying to get you tired of the constant requests, so you just give up and enter the code, so they can log in to your account.
