Is Dune part 2 worth watching? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 30 points 4 weeks ago (3 children)

As an avid Dune books reader (all of them), I think Villeneuve did the best adaptation possible. As a character, Chani is much more fleshed out in the films and Rebecca Ferguson CRUSHED it as Jessica. Oscar Isaac also was a very good Leto.

My big gripe is with Stilgar and Paul. Stilgar in the second movie was almost relegated to comic relief. Yes, he is also portrayed as a believer in the books, but it felt like a caricature in Dune Part 2.

As for Paul, I had hoped for more focus on why he actually went to drink the water of life. In the books he wanted to avoid it. But events he couldn't foresee and put people he loved in danger pushed him over the edge. In the film I didn't get any of that.

Still, loved both parts. Definitely worth a watch.

With normal news websites, A/B testing could be a thing. We had a rudimentary implementation of that back in 2011 already. But this is Reuters, a news agency. They are B2B and don't care about clicks, their business model is selling first hand reporting to other media outlets (e.g. CNN, USA Today etc). As stories develop, so does the title. Especially when ongoing conflicts are concerned.

Sorry I don't. I only have the HDMI card.

Does the Index really need full DP or does it work via USB-C? Because in the end all those expansion cards are just USB-C accessories. I'm asking because we own a Quest2 and use it with USB-C and my desktop PC. Haven't tried it with my Laptop.

I have the 13" AMD one. Only reason I still have Windows on it is because I can't get Davinci Resolve to run under Ubuntu. Otherwise very happy with my purchase.

Had this exact thing happen to me. Luckily my Framework laptop's BIOS allows me to pick the EFI boot order and I set it back to the Linux Boot loader.

Risks of CPR in c/[email protected]

This. When I got my CPR training, the consensus was: if you hear or feal something crack, don't stop. Messing up is better than doing nothing.

I admit it: I'm a lurker 99% of the time. I do partake in the up- and downvoting though.
