Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire

I watched Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire so long ago. This post is supposed to be a review or my thoughts on that film. I can’t. I forgot anything about the movie.

Wait. I vaguely remember something about freezing to death. Or was it being scared to death? Yeah something about that.

It turns out that even though I don’t remember anything. I’ll still give it a mediocre score.

3 of 5 stars.

Not really having something today, I guess. I just want to post something for leap day. I also want to post something so that February 2024 has more than one post.

I just did a quick check of my favorite sites for this link and this one about Pluto’s orbit seems appropriate for the day. Does Pluto have a Leap Year?

“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”

Even Mac gurus have this problem.

I had signed up for an iTunes music account a long time ago maybe perhaps even when it was announced. Then I signed up for a Mobile Me account before it became iCloud. Then I most likely have a Japanese iTunes account. And I think I have a work one, too. I just have too many Apple ID accounts.

And there is no way to resolve them being one. No way.

Today’s link finds Daring Fireball himself stuck trying to navigate the multiple Apple ID accounts. He’s getting ads for services he’s already bought and it’s because of the multiple IDs that has confused him.

I, too, am confused by it all.

One of my favorite programming things is regular expressions. What are regular expressions? Well, they’re patterns mainly used to search text files particular words. It’s a code for how to find a needle in the haystack. My favorite is Perl regular expressions. I like programming in Perl because I like using it for searching for text in a file and processing that text into what I need to do. I hate when your search feature doesn’t use Perl regular expressions. (I am looking at you sed.)

Today’s link is to help you to use regular expressions. I think I have to read this, too.

I think I like train travel. I haven’t really done much, and in America it really doesn’t work, but it is very intriguing to me. I’ve done a few train trips before — once from Paris to Barcelona, a trip into Munich, trips to New York. It’s a small sample size, I know, but still I find it highly interesting.

So today’s link get’s you to see all the American routes of Amtrak. It does show you how to get from one side of the country to the other by the terrible American train network.
