Do we really believe that the kind of people who sign up for the military have this much reasoning ability?

The whole point is to mould them into unquestioning footsoldiers.

They aren’t as bad as police who have to actively try whereas someone can just “fall” into the army. But still, they are enemy combatants and can’t be expected to follow reason.

This is one of the few movies where I find the remake far superior. Barbara is a limp fish rag in the original. It hits harder for a social point at the end with Ben, but I kind of like the retribution of the remake

It is 100% there.

It’s legal because of the 16th amendment.

I have no idea what this is referencing. May I have some context?

No, more like the differences in lenses, how they pull focus, the light they let in and f stop for the shutter.

The film Matters too, but since OP specifically asked about vintage equipment, film was a given

Army of the Dead has a super small focal point due to the lenses JJ Abrams used and it is a noticeable affect all through the movie.

The parts won’t work if you mess with the computer anymore than they will with Apple. You can hack into it and be malicious, which is what you’re talking about doing here

They certainly do tell you which parts you can add to your car that will void the warranty or make it illegal to drive on the street

Yet he still did the right thing in VI despite his bias. (And if you watch the Orville, there’s a character in season 3 that has the same arc).

Balance Of Terror was when/how they discovered it

Within the past week I’ve had to listen to 2 people talk about how Apple products were such shit because they couldn’t access their accounts or get into their things for work because they had forgotten their password or fucked up their two factor authentication.

These are the exact kind of people who will download some game just randomly off the Internet because they don’t have to pay for it and then when their phone fucks up, they will blame Apple

Yeah. I have no idea what the article is about because I don’t know what munching is. But the ArsTechnica headline gives me more contextual info
