Ooh, that...Puts it in context. Also had no idea they were working on a Kraven movie (then again, didn't realize Madame Web was coming out either).

That sounds pretty appealing tbh. Thanks for elaborating on it!

Are you a fan of Charlie Day stuff, or did you go in more off the ideas of it? It sounds interesting skimming the Wikipedia page on it.

Is that Madam Web related to Spider-Man, or an entirely different Madam Web?

This Poor Things, I take it? It definitely sounds different!

Diablo Cody stated that Lisa Frankenstein is set in the same fictional universe as Jennifer's Body.

...Did it carry those vibes after all this time, if you've watched Jennifer's Body before?

Did Heroes eventually have a proper ending, or did you also abruptly stop watching as it continued to drag on?

My most recent gripe is half bad on Netflix.

Netflix the notorious unfinisher, was it only truly a quarter bad by its end?

Then you’ve got seamless integration with Vscode as a bonus, it’s more like why would you not use GitHub unless you have a specific problem with them.

Does GitHub still only permit one account? I remember looking into it awhile back and not wanting to get things mixed up between personal/professional arrangements and the one account policy put me off.

Microsoft fucking sucks, but I want people to know ways around stuff so they aren’t wasting time and money if they don’t have to.

What is the way around Microsoft accounts during 10/11 setup?

As an analogy, you can try taking a selfie using an old laptop’s front-facing camera. You probably won’t like how you look either - you’d look either sickly pale or drunken red, eyebags appear out of nowhere, the distortion of the lens makes you look fat. All of these qualities aren’t because you are any of these things in real life. It’s simply that laptop cameras are bad. Same is true for microphones and speakers.

I think you make a good point with the hardware aspects of this, and on this last point I can't help but be a little amused, as while it's often very true, personally I sometimes prefer the lower res quality of a laptop camera as it can help obfuscate some of the finer details I don't much care for. It's basically a hardware lo-fi filter, and I appreciate it not catching every pore. 😂

I suspect this is basically it, however I've often thought similar could be said of one's appearance; as it's distorted by different lighting, whether your clothing's gotten wrinkled up a certain way, the wind's messed up your hair, or you accidentally smudged makeup or some dirt on you somewhere. Although that all is also typically easier to adjust (give or take the lighting and wind) than your voice, so that undoubtedly plays into it.
