Just give 'em one'a deez;

It's a bit stupid since people who are going to have abortions regardless of the law in Ireland will have them in the UK. It has been done for some time now.

Since you can't just drop down and get it free on the NHS, you're stuck with private services, which restricts who actually gets one through an artificial barrier. The poor get fucked, other than literally, and then have to take care of a child they thought they weren't capable of. One life created, more often then not two lives ruined.

Rights of unborn children has been quite conservative in all regards in Ireland. There was a case a few years ago about a braindead woman being refused the right to die on the basis that she had a 6 month fetus. Don't know how it turned out.

It's alright if you stick to lurking.

Get all the info you can, then get out before you see the comments.

The real pro tip is in the comments.

Ahh yes, but not when it's some gif or interesting that doesn't really warrant dad-joke-tier comments.

I'm the lindburg baby! Wah, Wah!

Oh sweet jesus this is hard to watch.

Just go home Deci. You can't take a joke and we don't want you hurting yourself again.

watch the movie again you didn’t pay attention to the weird details the movie leaves behind

also watch the directors cut I think? it has a different ending

ehhhh does the director's cut really add to it or just make you question deckard's humanity?

Theatrical beats you over the head with the plot and Deckard's detective work via VO, omits the unicorn dream and has a generic "driving off into the sunset" ending, as well as a few other details. Ironically while it serves the plot on a platter, the hints that Deckard may not be human aren't really developed. Iirc the escape scene deals with the fact he left Rachel alive rather than them both being replicants.

Director's and Final cut have little differences to each other apart from a few CGI improvements, colour filtering, and their format (originally the Director's Cut was VHS, and lower quality, while Final Cut got better quality through advances in film restoration on DVD/Bluray, and some bonus features).

If you get confused, go back and watch it again at some point. If you're still totally stuck, find a theatrical copy and watch it because all the detective work is explained with a jarring VO, or read the plot on Wkipedia.

Album came out today

What even is this thread.

Oh, thats what people are calling "dark corner of internet".

Sounds like two sides of an argument going through Google translate to insult each other,  with one being slightly illiterate.

the most disgusting aspect is he's letting his bare skin touch a mcdonald's floor

More like the thin film of grease that layers the place. That's why his spazzed movements on the floor were so jerky, he was slippin'.

Saw 2049 and enjoyed it a lot. Definitely deserves a second viewing.

Agreed, but I have one misgiving;

Two weeks ago, 28 floors high in Kuala Lumpur;

Finale was probably the most boring.

Tales from the Citadel and the premiere were the best imo.

I feel like most if not all countries would do or have already done this to their respective citizens on their soil at some point.

DSLR's are medium-high end cameras, they're pricey (cheapest are somewhere around £5-600) and they're sorta bulky, but only to accommodate all the lenses and shit they need to take really good pictures, with MegaPixels (MP)'s well beyond everything else with picture-taking abilities, and most are also able to be used as a video camera. These are not really suited for amateurs or as starter cameras as they cost a bomb, and although they have an automatic setting, you won't get the most out of the camera's power to make real use out of it without knowing a bit about ISO's, light intensities, apertures, lenses, and shutter speeds, as well as what a RAW file is.

Compacts are what it says on the tin; small enough to fit in your pocket, at the cost of higher quality (similar MP-resolutions as a high-end phone), but are significantly cheaper, which can be under £100 if you get an old model. Great and cheap for starters, but may be limited in features such as only producing JPEG images that are harder to edit later on, might not have filming capabilities, and may or may not be limited to an auto-only setting (so you can't do specific focus on a subject, change the aperture, etc). Compacts can also have niche features, like being waterproof (good for diving or underwater photos), or being generally more rugged than a DSLR.

Compact DSLR's are a more recent thing - more compact than a DSLR, more features and quality than a compact, and somewhat in between the two for cost (between £3-400, but getting ever-cheaper). They may not have DSLR super MP quality, but are far less bulky, have filming capabilities, can have the niche features of compacts, and have slightly cheaper options available.

There's also the older SLR's (the D being Digital in the above) and 35mm film cameras. These can be dirt cheap because of their age unless it's some "classic/vintage model", but are a lot more finnicky because the tech is likely to have come from the 90's or earlier (i.e. no pre-/post-shot preview screens, limited indicators on shutter speed/aperture/light intensity, film is far more fragile to heat/light/cold/humidity/water/dust, x-rays and other radiation, etc), plus it's a constant cost to replenish the film, which depending on the camera and film type, can be very rare and/or expensive. The upside is you get a "classic" camera, with the mechanical bits and clicks, actual film, getting back negatives and actual photos, that sorta thing. It's kinda popular with hipster types, old folks and hobbyists.

I myself have a compact DSLR (Panasonic Lumix something or other) and an old Minolta 35mm from the 80's. I've been using the Lumix for ages now to learn how to do all the settings manually with the help of the preview screen to see the results before I click, so that I can transfer over and use the totally featureless 35mm and gauge what settings I need at the time to get a decent photo out of it.
