Such a great film! It's one I like to take a decent break in between viewings, and it always hits me so strong. Across the board, great stuff in art, story, direction, acting...just wonderful. I still vividly recall seeing it when it came out. It was probably the last time I was so engrossed in a film I forgot I was at the movies. Went to see it with a friend from art school and we were both blown away by it. Then we had to walk out into the Rockaway Mall in northern NJ...that was kind of a letdown, lol. But it's always nice to remind myself what great, visionary directors can sometimes do.

Great stuff, Terry! It always floors me.

New student housing near VIA University College in Denmark is now the largest 3D-printed housing project in Europe—and it shows the possibilities of 3D-printed housing when it’s built at scale.

Called Skovsporet, the development is a 36-unit complex spread across six buildings on an area of 17,760 square feet in Holstebro, a town on the west side of the Jutland peninsula. Each low-rise unit is made from a low-carbon concrete that was 3D-printed on site. Each of the private apartments was designed as a complete home, with a sleeping area, bathroom, lounge, kitchen, and study area.

Large windows and a slanted timber hybrid roof allow in natural light, and cork panels and glass give it texture in addition to the 3D-printed walls. Each apartment was built around shared courtyards connected by walking paths and garden landscapes.

The previous largest 3D-printed housing project in Europe was ViliaSprint, a three-story, 12-unit complex completed this spring in Reims, France. Germany built its first 3D-printed public housing in the city of Lünen in 2023.

This large Anheuser Eagle sign was recently installed at the main AB/InBev Brewery in St. Louis, which starts on the next block from my home. I was told this was from the brewery in Newark they sold not too long. I used to live in NJ and would see it often when flying out of that airport. I think I saw online it was at one time the "largest animated neon" sign, with 'flapping' wings? Someone else told me it will be rotating and they're supposed to turn it on soon, 8/31. It should look pretty cool, sorry for the crappy phone pics!

Sorry if someone has posted this already and for the crappy phone pics, but I just saw this new VERY large sign was recently installed at the AB/InBev brewery. I've been seeing the platform being put up over the last month or so, didn't know what it was for (maybe another helipad for them, lol?) Headed for a walk to this morning and saw this giant eagle, about 40ft tall maybe, on top of it. Should look cool all lit up! I wonder if it will rotate, hah?

Free, fun, and worth it. Right by eades bridge

I have an Anycubic Photon Mono 4K printer that's about 5 yrs old, has been very reliable. I've noticed lately I'm getting what look like "bubbles" in the printed resin, visible in the lower right hand of this back of this base. They usually show up on larger prints like this of course. Does anyone have any suggestions what may be causing these and possible solutions? Thanks in advance for any helpful comments!

And no don't ask why we can't replicate the same buildings ever again with our modern technology in one month when we created those things in one year 100 years ago cost effective prices something etc, also who would want a marvel of architecture that would attract millions of tourists and generate billions in revenue? who wants that? stop asking dumb questions.

Wait, you don't believe Wikipedia? You are an extremist conspiracist.
