  2. Be civil: disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally insult others.

  3. Spam, self promotion, trolling, and bots are not allowed

  4. Shitposts and memes are allowed until they prove to be a problem.

    Regarding spoilers; Please put "(Spoilers)" in the title of your post if you anticipate spoilers, as we do not currently have a spoiler tag available. If your post contains an image that could be considered a spoiler, please mark the thread as NSFW so the image gets blurred.

    Please use spoiler tags whenever commenting a spoiler in a non-spoiler thread. Most of the Lemmy clients don't support this but we want to get into the habit as clients will be supporting in the future.

Failure to follow these guidelines will result in your post/comment being removed and/or more severe actions. All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

My housemate grumbles about getting rid of her DVD collection from time to time. I told her that she's not allowed to get rid of her Dogma DVD. I even watch it once in a while.

USB DVD readers are pretty cheap and backing up a DVD movie to a file (either just the movie as mp4/whatever or the whole disc with menus, special content and all that jazz as an ISO) is trivial. DVDs themselves are fragile circles of plastic that store data a micron-thin foil layer that can be hurt by too spicy a laser pointer. Do yourself and your roommate a favor and make a copy of that thing for posterity's sake.

100% agree. I backed up my Dogma DVD (as well as the rest of my DVD/Blu-ray collection) and now I enjoy them streaming through my Plex server.

What a coincidence? I backed up your DVDs to my Plex too!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

That’s so funny, because I was just wondering where you got your copy of Dogma that I backed up to my Plex server!

Good for him, Kevin is one of my favorite people.

I really miss Smodcast.

I downloaded it from youtube years ago to watch on my phone whenever I feel like.

Hopefully I'll be able to watch it in HD soon!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

Kevin Smith is a wonderful film maker but I wish there was a way to delete his tweets from the internet lol

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago (1 children)

What's your problem with them?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Yeah really, what’s up?

I did find this:

Ten years in and we bone like we're cheating on each other WITH each other. A decade-plus and her clit/brown/taint-area still pOwns my dick.

But that’s hilarious ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This was the one I was thinking of.

Also the pictures he posts of himself looking sad when he has watched sad movies -
