I have a smart watch that can detect when I fall asleep. I would love it if there was a way to sync that time stamp with when I started a movie and automatically fast forward to 5 mins before then.
It would have to be some third party integration so the streaming service doesn't harvest the data and decide to stop making things I enjoy because I had a long day.
Good Chicken Tikka Masala is good in any vessel. I live in Southern California and there's a place near me that wraps it in a burrito with basmati rice. The burrito is basically naan and I would argue this is the best format.

This sounds like "facts don't care about your feelings," which almost always goes on to cite cherry-picked/non-sensical/incorrect "facts."
I worked on one of these games (and a PS3 launch title). I feel like this post makes it sound like I should be living in a retirement home instead of still trying to figure out how to become a first time home owner.
I've still got some invites if anyone needs them.
Two car related pranks:
We lived near a mall with a giant parking lot and cars were always driving really slow while not looking where they were going. We were dumb kids who learned how to take a spill without hurting ourselves from thousands of hours practicing skate tricks. If we were walking through the parking lot and noticed that a driver hadn't looked in our direction at all, we would roll across the hood of their car and either off the same or opposite side (never the front). People freaked the fuck out and often offered us money. We thought we were doing a public service by teaching them to pay attention by scaring the shit out of them.
We would get the biggest soda cup from 7-11 and instead of filling it with soda, we would put some rare earth magnets inside it and slap in on the roof of our car. That bitch wasn't going anywhere. People would wave at us and try to get our attention, we'd just smile and wave back. They'd shout and point up and we'd shrug and point at our ears like we couldn't hear them. This mostly happened at stoplights. While driving, people were usually trying to work out the physics of it not moving. We took it on the highway a few times and thought the cup would tear itself apart, but it didn't even crack. At that speed, folks caught on real quick and we saw a few bust up laughing.
I mean, it's not like this really tests their acting chops. It's a fun flick, but don't get your hopes too high. 😅
Best I can do is Helen Mirren with Pierce Brosnan and Ben Kingsley as a book club at a retirement home that solves the first real murder after only previously reading about them. David Tenant is the antagonist and Tom Ellis (of Lucifer) as Pierce Brosnan's son.
So do you grow your own food and harvest your own electricity and smelt you own ore to make your own electronic devices to post on the internet that you're accessing via your own isp?
"Small business owners" feels like an arbitrary line. Sure, there's those that are doing it because they're bootlickers and capitalists, but restaurants are terrible investments. If you're avoiding chains and conglomerates, you're more likely to be supporting a comrade who is trying to survive in a capitalist country. This is not an ACAB situation. There are employee owned small businesses and work places that treat workers fairly.

I think you're thinking of Niki de Saint Phalle, who does a lot of sculpture covered in mosaic and has installations at several places in San Diego (including Balboa Park). AFAIK, she's never done anything with this subject matter or level of realism (her stuff is usually stylized). Also, the trees in the background don't look native to San Diego.
