I enjoyed uprising. It deserved a sequel too though, and was clearly leading to things it didn’t get to wrap up sadly. Well worth watching anyway though.
Me too, because after I posted that, I also remembered his monologue about how if you steal $100M in bearer bonds they will find you unless they think you are dead.
So yeah, I don’t remember if it was discussed but I think McClane just sped up the timetable for getting the authorities involved. They definitely tried to keep it quiet at first though.
But also, Mr Takagi was murdered before John had done anything, IIRC.
The more rare, obscure, or just a guilty pleasure, the better. Maybe you grew up with it, maybe it’s just the nostalgia talking, any reason is fine....
Here’s one I played a lot of and loved that I never hear about anywhere… Bionic Commando - 1992. A port of a Nintendo game I only got to try a few times, but the game boy version was better to me.
In addition to the other suggestions, check out Space RPG 3 and Space RPG 4 for Android (unsure of IOS). Great spiritual successors I recently put hundreds of hours into. Space RPG 3 is now free. 4 is $2.50 IIRC.
Something I haven’t seen in the comments but is very important to the equation… Louisville has a very messed up bussing situation and has for years.
I’m not SUPER aware of the details, but that’s because I live on the southern Indiana side of the river (just miles away from Louisville). My wife moved over here years ago specifically to avoid this issue for her kid before he was in the school system.
Louisville has a long standing policy where there is some sort of lottery that chooses what school you go to, rather than your school being determined by your nearest available.
The idea was clearly based on good intentions… to ensure that kids from any neighborhood would have the same opportunities, etc etc.
However, in reality it is a nightmare. Louisville isn’t the largest metro area or the most sprawling, but still, trying to bus students from every school to every part of the county is ridiculous.
I think they made some changes in the past few years to make it easier to get a closer school, but again I’m not super up to date on it because it doesn’t affect me other than the bus routes being an issue every year and hearing about it on the local news.
It’s gotten worse and worse over the years though.
Again, I’m sure there are much more informed people with better info on this out there, but until they jump in I figured I’d add some pertinent info since this isn’t a local lemmy community.
When I first started this show I found it to be a really awkward mix of comedy and seriousness. It had some jokes thrown it at the most inopportune times as some kind of comic relief from a really serious situation. Perhaps the first half of the first season was actually a bit rough or maybe the show just grew on me, but by...
