    in the correct order. Probably just gravity feed your water source
    into it and it comes out the base.


    It sounds like a fun project. I can probably recycle an old swimming
    pool filter for such a thing.


    well you should probably go bigger than that.
    or just use an rv filter like i have.

    well the john wick movies had very little substance and story
    telling. i think that type of movie would work fine as a ai movie.
    but they had keanu as the draw. you cant just put anybody into a
    movie like that.


    John Wick movies worked because they were a deliberate cheesy
    callback to action movies from a couple of decades ago, of the sort
    they don't often make these days. At least the first ones were.
    My opinion is they worked mostly because they pandered to
    subconscious nostalgia.

    The movies themselves were just "Hero kills bad guys non stop"
    movies, which works for me because most of the fighting was well done
    and they tried for it to be varied. I don't think the plot and
    wordlbuilding is award material, though.


    it worked because everyone loves keanu. and they killed his dog.

    I appreciated the callback in a sequel when Halle Berry's character
    kills everyone in the room. John Wick questions the overreaction, and
    she says "They killed my dog!"

    John Wick says "I get it..."

    One of my favorite lines of dialogue in the John Wick movies was I think in the 2nd movie, where one of the mob bosses was telling someone "I can assure you that the stories you hear about this man, if nothing else, have been watered down."

    When the mob boss calls the shop owner to find out why he hit his son,
    and he tells him he stole it from John Wick and killed his dog, his
    response - "Oh." says volumes.
