1. The lounge is for the CodeProject community to discuss things of interest to the community, and as a place for the whole community to participate. It is, first and foremost, a respectful meeting and discussion area for those wishing to discuss the life of a Software developer.
The #1 rule is: Be respectful of others, of the site, and of the community as a whole.
2. Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific programming question answered please use Quick Answers[^], or to discussion your programming problem in depth use the programming forums[^]. We encourage technical discussion, but this is a general discussion forum, not a programming Q&A forum. Posts will be moved or deleted if they fit better elsewhere.
3. No sys-admin, networking, "how do I setup XYZ" questions. For those use the SysAdmin[^] or Hardware and Devices[^] forums.
4. No politics (including enviro-politics[^]), no sex, no religion. This is a community for software development. There are plenty of other sites that are far more appropriate for these discussions.
5. Nothing Not Safe For Work, nothing you would not want your wife/husband, your girlfriend/boyfriend, your mother or your kid sister seeing on your screen.
6. Any personal attacks, any spam, any advertising, any trolling, or any abuse of the rules will result in your account being removed.
7. Not everyone's first language is English. Be understanding.
Please respect the community and respect each other. We are of many cultures so remember that. Don't assume others understand you are joking, don't belittle anyone for taking offense or being thin skinned.
We are a community for software developers. Leave the egos at the door.
cheers,

I decided to buy an Akura (a stealth helicopter) because ... why not?
And the trade price is $1M less, so I thought I'd do the Doomsday Heist Prep mission which gives you the reduction for the first time.
But ... you have to do those in a open Freemode session, which means all the Griefers get told what you are doing and can come get you.
OK. Look at players list. 26. Gulp.
In, shoot, shoot, run. Get the chopper, back to the facility, done. Less than ten minutes in total ... and nobody even tried to attack me (other than NPC's)!
Maybe GTA V is growing up?
Anyone else noticed this?

You missed the rest of the statement:

Not watching that.
The activities of "Computer Programming" include(d) the process of plugging wires into very early computers -- which, I dare say, is not coding.
Like those early computers, I don't know that "Coding" really exists anymore. I'm sure others on here can provide a more accurate view. I never used punch cards, but is it not the case that an engineer would define the program and then hand it to a "coder" to punch the appropriate cards? (An early version of pair programming?)

Anyone seen "Dr Strange in the multiverse of madness"? Saw it this Saturday. Amazing, never-ending CGI. Entertaining. Sticks in your head.

My wife and son saw it last week and found it very difficult to follow. My son did not like it. I think my wife was being nice. I told them that I had read that Sam Raimi had a mandate to make the movie appear chaotic. From what I read so far, he did a good job at that but many fans did not care for that.
Glad you liked it. Dr. Strange is one of my favorite characters on screen for this movie genre.
I am going to wait till it streams to see it.

You really have to have seen Wandavision to follow it.
And it also includes a lot of extra characters that have only appeared in other not so mainstream Marvel TV series and films before, which is great for the avid fans of all of Marvel's stuff, but makes it a bit more confusing for the ones who only watch the main MCU movies.

A lot of the Disney Marvel/Star Wars show have online streaming series that are pretty much mandatory if you are going to follow the plot and characters of the big theatrical movies now. Great if you are a fan and watch everything and sucks if you are a casual fan or a new comer to the show.

The last thing I would want is sticks in my head. What did the doctor say?
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

 - I gave up on crappy Hollywood comic book / super hero flicks about 10 years ago.
Sadly that leaves ~2 "original" movies per year... on a good year.

"Sadly that leaves ~2 "original" movies per year... on a good year."
I doubt there are even that many. Hollywood cannot think of a new idea even if they tried. And I am pretty sure they don't try. I have a neighbor who writes for one of the "shows" on one of the networks. She doesn't have an original thought in her head.
To err is human to really elephant it up you need a computer
