I didn't go to see it this weekend mainly because I didn't want to fight the crowds and mostly because every showing was sold out this week at my local theater. My wife has already started up, wanting me to take her to see it so I guess I will soon do just that to keep the peace.

I'd wait until its all died down, myself I am waiting for the Blu-Ray it's easier plus in my house there's no screaming people :p

My Wife and I watched it with the rest of the crowd of 400+ on Friday night. They played it every hour on the hour in several theater #'s at my 15 theater place. We got there at 9:20pm for the 11:00pm show and we were about 32 people behind the front. By the end of waiting we had about 350 behind us.

We were fans of the first one so watched this one. It was good in our minds and about everyone there was impressed with it as well.

Not for everyone I am sure but it was for us. :)

I read half of the first book, I couldn't finish it. It was worse than Harry Potter.

Go ahead and google some twilight hate and you'll find some websites dedicated to literature break down on how bad the books are in detail.

And the movie...

-How can everyone in school have the hots for your crotch and yet be depressed and think they hate you?

-No matter how well or fast or EXTREME you drive, no guy can look cool in a volvo, especially dead glittery ones.

-Blinking 100 times a minute is not good acting.

-Stuttering and blurting to near spaz on every line is not good acting either. Where did they get this girl? A rehab center at mid-sobriety?

-Apparently you have only one class, biology.

-Going to high school all your life might raise questions like: Haven't you gone here before?

-And if you're immortal, you're a loser if you spend it at high school.

I can go on like a broken record that has been said before, say, "It's not a curse if you can walk in day light and just eat tofu deer forever." Or the fact Bella is a Jane Doe with a minus in the personality department.

I think I'm ganna start putting Bram Stoker books on top of twilight books at my barns n nobel.

I can't imagine any males liking the book or the movie, and if you do. Congrats, you're a couple bars down on the evolution graph. If my ex liked the book or movie she would have been my ex a lot sooner.

No one has standards anymore.

I saw New Moon with my wife yesterday and I have to say it may be one of the worse movies I've ever seen. I was yawning viscously about midway through the film. Even my wife was disappointed in it and she's a big fan of the series.

Hmm?

Twilight is certainly not my taste in movies, i prefer action movies preferably war or war related set in modern time but i dont have a problem with WW2 setting, that said i liked Twilight, all this bashing is boring.

I guess that applies to all the undeserved praising it as well?

Friday estimates this week

    • Secure Boot

      By cork1958 · Posted

      Simple answer is yes, you will still get the Windows updates and as long as browser is up to date, you will be good. Only thing secure boot does is protect you against boot level threats and make it harder to install other OS's. I've been looking into this pretty thoroughly lately myself as wifes computer has secure boot disabled plus my other, older computers that run Linux, don't have secure boot enabled. Have seen all kinds of questions about this on the Linux Mint and MX Linux forums. Just don't suddenly enable secure boot now.
    • Ford execs say they made a mistake when they replaced human engineers with AI

      By TsarNikky · Posted

      How many other companies will follow Ford's lead? Or, have they already gotten lazy and become enslaved to AI--and now can't figure out how to get out of that mess.
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By TsarNikky · Posted

      Why would any self-respecting intelligent person follow any recommendation by Donald's GOP administration? With almost two years of fabrications, deceit, and blatantly illegal behavior, why believe them now? They had best be gone after the November 2026 election, so we'll wait and see.
    • AltSendme 0.4.1

      By Copernic · Posted

      AltSendme 0.4.1 by Razvan Serea AltSendme is a minimal, cross-platform application designed for fast, secure, and private peer-to-peer file transfers. It allows users to send files or entire directories directly between devices without relying on cloud servers, accounts, or any personal information. Everything is encrypted end-to-end using modern protocols like QUIC and TLS 1.3, ensuring both strong security and low-latency performance. Transfers are verified with BLAKE3 for data integrity, and interrupted downloads automatically resume, making the experience reliable even on unstable connections. You can transfer anything—images, videos, documents, and more. Integrity checks are performed on both ends, so your files are automatically verified for correctness during both sending and receiving. AltSendme works seamlessly across local networks or long-distance links, capable of saturating multi-gigabit connections for extremely fast delivery. With built-in NAT traversal and encrypted relay fallback, it connects devices almost anywhere. The app integrates with the Sendme CLI and will soon support mobile and web platforms. Fully free and open-source, AltSendme offers a lightweight, privacy-first alternative to traditional cloud-based services, removing size limits, upload costs, and unnecessary data exposure. AltSendme 0.4.1 changelog: Release Highlights Self-hosted relays: Run your own iroh relay so transfers don't rely on public infrastructure. Includes a full deployment template in deploy/relay/ with Docker Compose for a VPS and configuration examples for production use. Fly.io support: One-click deploy template for Fly.io, including a quick-start config (fly.dev.toml) for testing without a custom domain, plus production setup with Let's Encrypt and your own hostname. Relay settings UI: New Settings → Network panel to choose how AltSendme connects: automatic public relays, custom self-hosted URLs (with optional auth token), or disabled. Test connections, verify latency, and see live relay status in the footer. Disable relays: Turn off relay servers entirely when you only need same-network transfers (e.g. LAN). Direct connections only. No relay hop required when devices can reach each other. Android graduates from beta: Android is now part of the regular release cycle alongside desktop. APKs ship with each version (universal, arm64, and armv7). Other improvements Private relay access control via shared auth token Relay fallback notifications when a custom relay is unreachable Broadcast mode toggle in sharing settings Android release build fixes (split-per-ABI APKs, universal APK preservation) UI polish: mobile safe-area insets, dropzone layout, transfer progress animation Bug fixes for minification-related serialization issues and system tray icon loading What's Changed feat(relay): add relay status functionality and settings UI (a120cdf) feat(relay): implement custom relay server configuration and verification (51276c7) feat(relay): add configuration for private relay access and enhance observability features (48fbabf) feat(relay): enhance relay URL validation, display connection status (d4fffa0) feat(relay): add RelayChangeGuard component and enhance relay-related translations (16ba514) feat(broadcast): add toggle setting for broadcast mode in sharing UI (ca6d977) fix(relay): correct QUIC discovery port, pin image, templatize fly.dev (52a2ba5) fix: More broken serialization due to minification (67491a9) fix(android): preserve true universal APK across per-ABI builds (e9f256f) fix(ui): conditional safe-area insets padding on mobile (1182f0e) refactor(transfer): CircularRing component animation fix (944572b) chore(android): drop x86 and x86_64 release APKs, keep universal+arm64+armv7 (34ada0b) Download: AltSendme 0.4.1 | ARM64 | ~9.0 MB (Open Source) Download: AltSendme for MacOS | Android Links: AltSendme Home Page | GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Why Delta Chat is the best decentralized messenger you have probably never tried

      By zikalify · Posted

      You are mostly right about the ephemeral nature of it. As I mention in the article, if you dont add a second device or take a backup of your account before uninstalling it, then yes you will lose access to your account. That said, in terms of actual user experience when you sync multiple devices your message history carries across and there's also a Saved Messages chat like there is on Telegram to send messages and attachments between your installs. But yh, what you point out are correct and its not trying to emulate Messenger or Telegram.
