I fell asleep during “A new hope” 3 times, and just stopped once out of boredom before I was finally able to make it through the whole movie. 100% feel you here. I respect it for what it is, and enjoy a lot of the stuff that has come after it, but man do I feel the original was just LIMP.
FWIW I’m using the downvote button as a “You didn’t explain”, “That’s a band not a movie”, “That’s a show not a movie”, “That’s a genre of animation, not a movie” button ;p I’m definitely clicking it far more often that I typically do =p
It’s wild how many people can write but not read.
I use a hardware password manager that connects over USB or bluetooth for most things. The few things that I use often I have a system for, and that system is popular culture.
Love “The Prisoner of Azkaban”? Initialize it, and add the publish date some where: HP&TPoA|1999
Starship troopers fan? Initialize a memorable quote. “The enemy can not push a button… if you disable his hand. Medic!”: Tecnpab…iydhh.M! Need numbers? Find a quote with numbers, or add the release year, or the number of times you watched it that one weekend where you and a friend watched it 32 times.
Like TV shows more? How about the fourth episode of family guy: S1-MindOverMuder-E4.
Metal Fan? I do love track three off of Metallica’s 1983 album: #3|Motorbreath-1983
Etc.
Tiling WM that you are not sure you want to get into: Sway. It’s a great alternative to i3 IMO.
What I use when I care to put in the effort of setting something up in great detail: Enlightenment. Some may argue that it’s not “lightweight”, but you can readily include only the bits you want, and avoid things like network config guis and system tray apps or whatever it is that you don’t want. Even when you’re using “all the things” which is not technically “lightweight” what it IS is performant. Oh, it’s also very pretty.
I don’t watch a TON of these things, but I do enjoy them from time to time. The two bits I enjoy the most are vicarious rediscovery of something I enjoy, and getting a very different point of view on the same thing.
Generally when I watch these it’s stuff like “Classically trained musician listens to Megadeth for the first time”. I get reminded of some bits that I’ve grown accustomed to, and sometimes get a whole new perspective on something I’ve been enjoying for years.
I will say, I don’t get “Youtuber reacts to other youtubers reaction to some twitch streamer breakdancing” or “Gymrat listens to ABBA for the first time”.
