House exploding into applause at the end of the show you worked hard on

Guaranteed weak-knee, must-hold-to-my-console moment

If you’re talking 2006 The Departed, be sure to watch the original “infernal affairs”

Tampopo

The princess bride

The grave of the fireflies

I couldn’t stand Shawshank, but Casablanca and Godfather are literal movie-making lessons

I hope you both are going to watch your own list as well (of which I’d only retain Spirited away I’m afraid)

“Kernel maintainer steps down” - and here I thought the dude fiercely opposed to Rust, that dinosaur vowing to fight with all his might against… a project he wouldn’t have a single line of code to maintain, ever, was the one to resign.

Instead we lost “Marcan”, Hector Martin, the lead of the Asahi Linux project, following an intervention in the drama-thread by none other than Torvalds himself, who rather than arbitrating or defusing the situation, added to it by scolding Martin with “you are the problem”.

Marcan also deleted his Mastodon account ; I am not quite sure what impact this will do on the Asahi Linux project, but fuck me sideways this all reads like unsupervised five years olds bickering in the schoolyard.

One of the best films about war, of all times and genres. Incredibly powerful and, yes, quite a tearful experience.
