Learned about the discontinued DIVX disc format recently. Not to be confused with the video CODEC.
Major selling points were being able to “purchase” a movie/disc, take it home and watch it like a rental (watch it multiple times within 48hrs), never have to return it, have the ability to rent it again or buy it (pay to play model) or just throw away the disc.
What a stupid idea that was.

I only play fortnight to spent time with the kids. I think it’s the 3rd person view I just can’t get used to/enjoy.
I still refuse to spend a dime on it, I continue to rock the default characters.
For me Halo > Fortnight.
Although, we all play Boomerang Fu together and that’s super fun. If you haven’t played that, highly recommended. You play as a food character with a boomerang via top down view, many laughs are had in that game.
Introducing the Dark Knight trilogy to a couple of my kids tonight. They insisted in watching the latest The Batman last week… but I told them it has nothing on Nolan’s series.
Batman Begins tonight 🦇
It was pretty fun to watch! Story line was good and had a few laughs. Not a movie I’d go out of my way to own, but happy that I saw it.

One of my daughters has just joined Nostr because she wants to share her drawings and photography!
Thanks to @melissa and @🟠 isolabellart for the nudge of encouragement to let her try it out. 🧡

PSA: if you encounter no internet connectivity after updating your iPad to 17.6.1, as I did, you may have to perform a full network reset to get it to work again.
To do so, go to "General" -> "Transfer or Reset iPad"
Tap "Reset" -> "Reset Network Settings"
After doing so, the iPad will reboot and you'll need to re-connect to your WiFi and it'll start working again. 🙏🏻
