I disliked Rian Johnson since I finished watching The Last Jedi. I won't go too far into why that was (some of his ideas could have worked better if he committed to them instead of yoinking them back by the end credits), but suffice it to say that because of the 7-8-9 back and forth whiplash and the "Your Snoke Theory Sucks" Twitter snark toward the audience (yes a lot of Star Wars fans are terrible, but come on), I only saw Glass Onion because my wife really, really insisted I gave it a try.
I concede that Rian Johnson writes excellent contemporary mysteries and I enjoyed the entire run of the movie and look forward to also seeing Knives Out now. I was truly pleasantly surprised. It doesn't hurt that Daniel Craig gave a weird but impressive delivery and really sold the character he played.
Yo! You are talking my language!
I didn't really think it was something I wouldn't enjoy, but I was definitely reluctant to try it since I have zero background in electronics. But when people started modding Nintendo Gameboys back in the day I thought it was so cool that I just had to try. Turns out it's fun as hell, it's useful, and you usually get something cool at the end.
My recent projects have been these DIY guitar pedal kits you can buy online. They send you all the stuff you need and you just put it together. It's extremely zen. That's such a great way to put it.
I like hacking/modding consoles but never got into hardware mods, dunno why. Just that extra hurdle of needing to buy a new set of tools I guess.
Yeah definitely understandable. I started with softmods as well, which are also pretty fun. I'm still a little too nervous to mess with newer, more expensive systems in case I break them. It's pretty fun to mess with old stuff though. Swap out parts, update the technology, make them look cool, etc.
