Gareth Edwards just seems like a fan of ultra wide formats, Rogue One was shot in a 2.76:1 format before being cropped slightly to 2.39:1 for release.
As much as I love that a lot of movies have been coming out in taller formats, which look great at home on our 16:9 TVs, there’s something special about the wider formats, at least when you see them on a suitably large screen at a proper theatre.
It is in a super wide format, so perhaps you are not used to seeing that because it isn’t all that common these days with a lot of big spectacle films moving back to taller formats
odysee is a weird place, lots of “creators” that were forced off youtube and other places for far out views or outright dangerous lies ended up there as they have almost no rules.
There are a lot of non-far-right weirdos that use it, but it is hard to scroll through without seeing some fringe crazy shit.
In ranked choice voting systems, single issue parties have a meaningful purpose, they don’t need a full platform covering every topic of running a country, they just need to show the major party that gets their preference flow that people support their cause and they need to take note of where those votes came from
Massive first preference vote losses maybe, but the preference flows would still trickle down to two major parties, it always does.
That preference flow data can then be used to shape future legislation to keep voters on their side and even to pull swing voters from the other sides, or at least that’s how it is supposed to work when the media isn’t actively working against you.
“hey we only won because of votes from this minor single issue party, maybe we should consider our position on that issue”
I’ve been voting pirate party for years now, though thankfully I am in a country with ranked choice / preference voting so I’m not damaging democracy by voting for a third party, in fact I believe I’m actively helping democracy by using the tools given to me.
In Australia they are now part of the Fusion Party, which combines pro-science, pro-choice, pro-environment and secular minor parties.
If you are into self hosting there is a very good tachiyomi plugin for Komga which is a manga and comics server you can self host and fill with your own content, it also supports connecting to multiple servers.
I have 2 Komga instances running on my home server (one for normal manga and one for the… other kind), content is collected by FMD2 which automatically downloads series I have set to monitor (similar to sonarr but less polished). then in tachiyomi I have access to all of that content streamed across the web to my phone and boox e-reader anywhere in the world. it’s pretty neat but the only missing feature is synchronising read status and position across devices.
It’s probably possible and safe for roms, but then there are already more or less complete packs for basically every console and retro computer ever made so it’s not that useful.
