I do not use Facebook often, but just shared this...

If someone told me when I was 7 years old while wearing my favorite outfit, which happened to be Captain America Underoos, that in 30 years not only was there going to be a movie that showed the action figures sprawled across my bedroom floor in a realistic manner, but that I would be also watching it in 3D in my own living room, I never would have believed it. Just watched The Avengers for the 3rd time since it was released. First time watching it in 3D. The 7 year old boy in me is still blown away.

Lazy Saturday afternoon, rented Something from Nothing: The Art of Rap

I grew up loving Hip Hop music, but am definitely not a fan of what it has become, or for that matter what it has been the past decade, if not longer.

I have to say for anyone like me, this is probably the best documentary I have ever seen about what it means to be an MC.

I also do hope that the kids that like Hip Hop now, that do not know much about it's roots, take the time to watch this as well, to see what it once was and still could be about.

And do not get me wrong, there are still plenty people making Hip Hop, but what is known to be Hip Hop as it is portrayed and shown by the mainstream media and what is represented as the top selling artist of these times, is IMO not what it should be.

So if you loved it like I do, or just have an interest in it from an American Cultural standpoint, highly recommend this documentary. Good job by Ice T making it.

Watched Lawless last night, very good film - the girlfriend is loving Tom Hardy(and his cardy)

Tonight, watched That's My Boy - another good film, but I know Adam Sandler is a very aquired taste.

Started watching Avengers Assemble, but got bored, so will try again tomorrow.

Rounded out the weekend of movies by going to see Looper at a matinee with my wife.

Was damn good. Actually not what I expected, and the trailers do a great job of keeping the plot unknown. Kudos for a trailer not spelling out the whole damn movie in sequence for once.

Actually want to see it again so I can catch all of the smaller stuff I missed the first time around, as I am pretty sure it is there.

    • Celebrating Windows XP's 25th anniversary this year

      By carols23 · Posted

      If I could, I would commemorate it the best way possible: Replacing old machines that are still running Windows XP with something more modern, stable and better.     Noone and nothing should be running Windows XP in 2026.
    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.
