... and the screen is damaged. I guess it's time for a new point and shoot. I remember feeling it was a wasted purchase when I bought it, but before too long the big DSLR wound up in the closet and this became my primary camera. Before I go out and buy the latest Powershot though is there anything better I should consider?

I primarily use it for street photography in urban environments. The best feature was the 40x optical zoom paired with the rapid shooting. I wasn't blown away by the image quality though, and shooting even in low light was terrible. But is there anything better that can fit in my pocket?

• Country: Used
• Condition: New only? Use

There was a film that was promoted on the Criterion Channel last year, I thought I had it favorited but I guess it's off the platform currently and thus not showing up on My List. I think it was a 90s or 00s indie film, but the clip they promoted was a bunch of guys doing a dance number straight out of MGM musical, but they were all regularly dressed and there was no musical score, the only audio was the dancers grunting as they performed their move. If this rings any bells for anyone I'd really appreciate it

There's a ton of throwaway scenes in the original Robocop. The writers were both young and enthusiastic. Paul Verhoeven was still fresh in Hollywood (and to speaking English) and kept them on set. They all tweaked the plot constantly to flesh out the world of Robocop. One thread that's implied but not explicitly stated is that the President seems to be planning to do some dark shit, perhaps even installing himself as a dictator.

The film focuses almost entirely Detroit, so the few details about the outside world stand out.

Consider:

• We hear that the President is visiting an armed Space Station
• While he's up there's (or shortly after he left) there's a "misfire" that by coincidence

I upgraded from an Acer ConceptD Ezel to a Surface Laptop Studio over the weekend, and something must be wrong. The SLS has terrible stylus performance out of the box, in particular drawing diagonal lines with anything other than fast strokes produces really bad waves. In certain programs its more noticeable than others. Blender and One Note are the worst; Clip Studio Paint handles it better but the jags are still noticeable.

This isn't just worse than the Concept D, but my old Surface Pro 4, and iPad too. I've tried it with a Wacom Bamboo Ink, and a Surface Pen. I have a slim pen 2 on order but I'm not expecting it to do any better.

This makes the whole thing useless for digital art, an

I was asked to put together a yearly plan for all my direct reports, and given a spreadsheet to fill out. Is there any better template for this sort of thing that anyone can recommend? Right now I'm calling out a brief annual goal with a quarterly breakdown, but that seems very simplistic.
