    Have you seen Devs? My interest in philosophy, specifically free will or the illusion of free will, is a main reason I loved it so much.

    No but I’m going to have to check it out because that is very interesting theory right there.

    Dark on Netflix is an interesting philosophical bender as well.

    Anybody seen Watchmen on HBO?

    It was very interesting and well done in my opinion.

    We've been rewatching 'The League' and for my birthday today my girlfriend "got" me a bottle of 3 Penis Wine. I rolled on the floor laughing when she presented it.

    Finished, great mini-series. Very very well done. Nick Offerman was surprisingly good in a serious roll.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I didn't see it during quarantine, I watched it last year when it came out, but if you haven't watched Chernobyl, you should. The whole mini-series is really interesting, but the final episode was some of the most fascinating TV I've seen, though also pretty geeky.

    It was great except for the Russians having British accents.

    Oh. I thought that's what Russians sounded like.

    I watched James Bond movies after Chernobyl and wondered why everyone loved a Russian spy.

    We are almost done with Giri / Haji on Netflix. One of the best TV shows we have seen recently.

    Only thing that bothers me is that they took an idea we had for a past startup about converting video via image processing to look like painting - they do it in the "previous episode recap" section - and I think their code is not anywhere as good as the code we wrote 4 or 5 years ago (We abandoned it because a different idea proved to be more lucrative, but I always enjoyed that work).

    Sailor Moon. It was a metaphor for our age.
