What's the dumbest blockbuster movie you have seen that somehow received high praise?
I’m not saying the worst, otherwise I would need to include the star wars sequels or transformers movies… Just some really dumb movie that somehow got praised....

Spring Potential Energy
Say a dissolvable spring is compressed with a bolt and nut that do not melt in a sulfuric acid solution. The spring has quite a bit of potential energy at this point since it is compressed. Assuming the spring dissolves perfectly (no breakage, just complete disintegration), what happens to the potential energy of the spring?
Nostalgic Distros?
I tired Linux a few times in the past, but didn’t really start using seriously until 2019. I love poking around old OSs and distros, and I want to spin a few up in some VMs my next free evening....
Capitalism is essentially alive
I think capitalism can be understood as a living entity, a being composed of billions of smaller beings (people), essentially cells. It evolves (legally and through market innovations), has an immune response (police), and grows and reproduces itself (imperialism). The cells are independent life in their own right, but they...
Can a browser and keepass both be run in flatpak and work?
Hey all!...
Is Linux Mint's package repository having issues or is the problem on my end? (Solved, I think)
Edit: Last night, I used the “Fix MergeList problems” option in the maintenance tab of software sources and at least for now, it seems to be working. So I probably wont need help with this anymore, hopefully....
New game from original creators of The Elder Scrolls has almost been backed on Kickstarter.

[Meta] Genuine community request
Making a genuine effort here to make this post within the rules of this community. I notice there is no qualifier for meta-posts; mods I’d love if you could just let me know to take this down rather than ban me. :)...

Peacock live streams
G’day all. I want to watch sports radio shows like Dan Patrick and Pro Football Talk on Peacock when they are live, but can’t find a site that has the daily shows from the 'Cock available to stream. I checked through multiple megathreads and can’t find any resources for this :( Additionally, I would love to find a place to...

Help for getting started with hardware
I dived into the selfhosting rabbit hole once again and again I am stuck at the hardware part. I’d like to start small-ish to make it realisable. I thought about a NAS (Openmediavault probably). First I wanted to do it on a Raspberry Pi with an external hard-drive but then I read USB connected drives are unreliable and so on....

Even if god exists religion can't possibly be the way to god
So I thought about this in the shower amd it makes sense to me, like praying and stuff never worked for most people I know, so a direkt link to god gotta be unlikely. That made me conclude that religion is probably fake, no matter if there’s a god or not. Also people speaking to the same god being given a different set of...
