  • Modern PCs don’t truly hibernate, they sleep. If the tower loses power its considered a hard reset.

    If anything, Windows machines often have ‘fast boot’ enabled which saves certain things to state, so today’s manual shutdown (without power loss) is closer to old school hibernation than today’s ‘sleep’ is.

    You can shutdownyour PC each night, but depending on what you’re working on it can disrupt workflow, so I understand why many people prefer to sleep instead.



  • My expectations werent high but given these remakes are often 1:1 to originals, I was looking forward to at least seeing Jumbaa. And then they made Jumbaa and Pleakley just regular humans. Boriiiing.

    Downside with live action I guess; in the cartoon the disguises are paper-thin but their human clothing is sufficient. Live action uncanny value takes that away from us; they can’t even pull it off with Stitch (really highlights “blue koala with bin-lid mouth”).

    So are we not getting scenes where Jumbaa is so large, heavy, and strong that he causes damage or gets stuck? Where rubbery flexible Pleakley responds to physics or his wibdmilling arms when he panics? Jumbaa and Pleakley are never going to fight over sharing a wig (anf well never see it perched delicately on Jumbaa’s head) because they’ll simply never use one.

    Ruins the fun when you take aliens put of the movie about aliens imo.
