I have the HD blu-ray and I never noticed this. How cool!

AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright - Dexerto The AWS outage caused chaos for owners of Eight Sleep’s Pod3 mattresses as they had no offline mode and were stuck at high temperatures.

So it’s Talk Like a Pirate Day. But let’s not forget: Some of the sharpest swords, fiercest tempers, and cleverest strategies belonged to women.
