>Teton County law enforcement officials said Tuesday the high-profile Gabby Petito case has helped them locate a body matching the description of a man missing in the area since August.
>
>“The widespread news coverage of the Gabby Petito search helped bring light to Lowery’s case, and resulted in at least two members of the public calling local authorities this past weekend with new information about his possible last seen point,” the TCSAR statement said. “The new information put Lowery on the Black Canyon Trail, wearing a black baseball cap with a gold ‘P,’ and carrying a black duffle bag with the Nike logo.”
>
>Given this new information, search and rescue crews initiated a response. Crews conducted a search for Lowery at the base of Teton Pass Tuesday.
>
>“After four hours of searching on foot, a team with a search dog located a body fitting Lowery’s description on a steep, timbered slope,” the statement said. “Cause of death is currently unknown. The family has been notified as authorities wait for verification.”
>
>At about 1 p.m., a dog team located a body and black Nike duffle bag significantly off trail on a steep, wooded slope.

"Lowery was last seen on video at Piste Mountain Bistro at the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort in Teton Village. It is believed he took a rideshare car to Pearl Street Bagels in Wilson the following day.

Lowery had never been to Jackson prior to his arrival and may have had plans to go camping, as he’d recently obtained a sleeping bag and tent. However, he had no previous camping experience.

Lowery’s family believes he might have been working somewhere in town before he disappeared. The last “ping” on his cell phone was in Jackson on Aug. 23, but the phone is now no longer working or trackable.

Lowery is 6 feet tall, has brown hair and blue eyes and often wore a Patagonia vest over a T-shirt. He was last seen wearing a black baseball hat with the letter “P,” a blue down vest, a plaid shirt and blue jeans.

Before Lowery left Houston, he canceled his mail delivery."

Looks like he may have been planning to relocate to the area, his family thought he was looking for a job there.

May not be connected obviously. But thought it was interesting.

Robert was a great father. He did everything and even more you’d expect out of a 10/10 dad. He will always stay in our hearts. And he will always be with us. Once again, we appreciate your prayers and condolences. Rest In Peace Robert Bob Lowery

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 81%. (I'm a bot)

> The premise of "The Old Man & the Gun" is telegraphed early on, and never falters: As obsessive real-life bank robber Forrest Tucker, Robert Redford plays a man who can't stop doing the one thing he does best.

> Redford may claim that "The Old Man and the Gun" is his final role, but like the smirking thief he plays here, there's a lingering sense that even he doesn't buy it.

> The filmmaker has been channeling late-'70s cinema ever since his expressionistic crime saga "Ain't Them Bodies Saints," but "The Old Man & the Gun" eschews pastiche for a sweet, affable character study that resurrects Redford's original star power with a wet kiss.

> Set in 1981, "The Old Man & the Gun" culls from journalist David Grann's 2003 New Yorker article about Tucker's decade-spanning robberies and jail breaks, but it roots the story in a specific turning point.

> "The Old Man & the Gun" goes beyond empty celebrity worship to give Redford one of his best animating devices - a romance.

> As the period-appropriate tunes keep playing, "The Old Man & the Gun" generally feels like the best kind of tribute, one that understands the material so well that it inhabits its very essence.

NOTICE: This thread is for discussing the submission topic. Please do not discuss the concept of the autotldr bot here.

It's a bit depressing that all of the American auteur directors of the 1970s indie film boom (Scorsese, Schrader, Spielberg, Coppola, Allen, Lynch, and etc.) are dead or nearing death, while the American auteur directors who made their names in the indie boom of the 1990s (Tarantino, Linklater, Paul Thomas Anderson, Wes Anderson, Noah Baumbach, Steven Soderbergh, Spike Lee, Darren Aronofsky, Coen Brothers, and etc.) are nearing retirement age (albeit, many have no plans to retire).

As you scan the landscape of current American cinema, it's incredibly difficult to find any American directors under 50 who can take the place of these last 2 generations. There are many talented young directors, but very few seem to have the clout to get bigger budget stuff made. Obviously, this is partly due to how much the studio system has changed. Studios have started putting money into streaming, while also focusing primarily on big budget blockbusters, meaning that there really isn't the same amount of money in American indie filmmaking that there was in the 90s.

So let's take stock of the American directors under 50 worth watching (sorry Sofia Coppola and Sean Baker, you barely missed the cutoff). I'll list all the ones I can think of, and you all please fill in who I might be missing. As a note, I don't necessarily like all these directors, they just seem to be the people who are getting work and making some amount of impact. Personally, it doesn't seem to me like any of them will rise to the level of power to make what they want in Hollywood like some of the 90s auteurs, but you never know:

• Bo Burnham (31): Started out making comedy youtube music while still in highschool, branched out into a career in comedy, unexpectedly made the well-received Eight Grade in 2018. Disappeared for a bit, then came back with a critically lauded musical, comedy, apocalyptic, pandemic special on Netflix (Inside).
• Trey Edward Shults (33): A24 director, which means he's done horror (It Comes At Night was a solid, low budget, riff on 1970s Jon Carpenter/Wes Craven). I haven't seen his other stuff (Krishna, Waves), but I probably should as they got good reviews.
• Safdie Brothers (35/37): Came up in the mumblecore movement of the 2000s (one of their first, Daddy Longlegs, is on Criterion and is great), but unlike most mumble core directors, had the talent to outlast that and stick around (biggest films: Uncut Gems, Good Time).
• Ari Aster (35): A24 horror kid. U

This sub is overlooking Bitcoin way too much.

After reading this sub daily I most say to most of you: Please be careful about being too emotionally invested in projects you believe in. The vast majority of project will not make it and will see a -99% downfall. Why? Centralization. Almost every project out there is too dependent on a smaller amount of people and is giving the illusion of decentralization. No other established project is fully decentralized other than Bitcoin.

Be careful using the analogy: "Bitcoin is MySpace - something better will emerge" or "Outdated tech" etc..
Bitcoin will stay #1 till the death of Cryptocurrencies, or by that time death of humanity.

I myself use my investing & studying of other projects to accumulate more to allocate to Bitcoin. And I'd would recommend you doing the same. Of course while still being invested in the projects I've got the must trust in.

I've always seen Bitcoin as just this "store of value" crypto which have given consistently great gains. But holy shit It's so much more than that.

It is hard to give a summary about things I've learned after digging down the Bitcoin Rabbit hole - but here are some conversations I'd recommend you listening to. These will change your perspective about Bitcoin:

My favorite quote about the Bitcoin energy usage "problem":

>Bitcoin using too much energy is the functional equivalent of saying your military is too powerful - Jason Lowery

*For the people interested my own allocation is atm ~12% BTC

Sorry it allows only 6 choices. Please comment if I have I have not given that particular choice in the polls.

View Poll

Down the YouTube rabbit hole and watched a few Saylor interviews, then a few of Tom Bilyeu’s interviews, Particularly loved the Robert Breedlove one, the Raoul Pal one, the Pomp one. Then watched a a few more interviews with Pal and Pomp, then Pomp with Murad Mahmudov and the recent one with Jason Lowery. Plus some debates with anti-Bitcoin ppl to try to make sure I’m getting all sides of the argument and can make my own opinion. Anyway, curious for some recommendations of people’s favorite talks, interviews, and debates. Thanks!
