Potentially, this movie. It reminds me of a certain shady chefā¦
Young couple Margot (Anya Taylor-Joy) and Tyler (Nicholas Hoult) travel to a remote island to eat at Hawthorne, an exclusive restaurant run by celebrity chef Slowik (Ralph Fiennes), who has prepared a lavish molecular gastronomy menu where food is treated as conceptual art, but his approach to cuisine has some shocking surprises for the wealthy guests.
Avant-garde Danish Polish cuisine, anyone?

I would expect no less from one of the best villain actors of our time.

I watched āClose Encounters of the 5th Kindā on Amazon Primeā¦ At some point, they show this upside-down pyramid thing with some mountains around it. They werenāt snow-covered but my immediate thought was the (wire suspended) upside-down pyramid where the partners would have their VR(?) meeting. Seeing as how this film was made in 2020 I do have to wonder if someone from IOI wasnāt inspired by (either) this film, or perhaps the story of this event to put something similar in the game (in Hitman 2 - since it had the still images). 
Or is it just a coincidence?
Obviously omitting anything about ETs or UFOs like in the filmā¦
Edit: if anyone is able to watch the film you can see it at 1:20:41.

Ok, I have a really good story to share, itās a good one, but a bit long so bare with me.
So, it was an evening and me and my roomate were having a convo in our dorm room, it was all cool, and then out of nowhere, the roomās air conditioner stopped working, it made a loud sound that reminded me of a cough, we started to see what was the issue and we couldnāt figure out what it was, it just stopped working randomally.
A couple of days later it worked perfectly fine again, so I asked my roommates how they fixed it and what was the issue, a random person, that was standing outside of the dorm room, just went and turned the engineās compressor all the way around, basically turning the engine off, we donāt know who was it or what was their intentions, and my Hitman brain just thought about the āTurn Off the Engineā distraction from the WOA trilogy, maybe he wanted to lure me out to assassinate me, maybe wanted to assassinate my roomate, who knows? But the bigger question is, who the hell did it and why?

We used to do all sorts of minor anarchy back in college. Weād remove the screws from the light switch and outlet covers, take light bulbs out of their sockets, remove pull chains from ceiling fans, etcā¦just because we were little gits.

Happy to see that people like this one.
Not sure about that tho, it took us a couple of days to figure it out with the help of someone that knows a bit about ACs, and only then we figured out that someone manually turned the compressor all the way around, the distraction didnāt get us to check the engine outside, but my roommate had a meltdown just because of the thought of sleeping without an AC, itās pretty damn hot, no AC means sweating while sleeping.

Yea most of the Muslim quarter felt like the medinah (old city) in Marrakesh. Itās interesting how similar but also how different the 4 quarters were. I expected the buildings to all be newer in the Jewish quarter since they kept being destroyed, but the Christian and Armenian quarters also had their own distinct feel to them.

Iām suddenly reminded that in the mid-90s my dad was commissioned by his company to make a scale model of the old city-center of Medina which was then to be plated in gold and sold to pilgrims traveling to the city. I donāt recall ever seeing the finished product but he spent months on it and got access to some very old blueprints of the city.

I donāt know if this is the right place to post this, but in my biochemistry class we need to memorize the 20 different amino acids. One of them is alanine, which only has a CH3 side chain, whereas almost all the others have more complex side chains. The way I remember it is by thinking of āAllan please add detailsā cause itās so simple.
