Best movies list for Christian viewers

-

Over the years my wife and I have watched secular movies for entertainment, all while keeping a biblical worldview. We have come across many movies that are not Christian, but don't excessively offend us and sometimes do offer edification when filtered through the Bible. I'm grateful for common grace.

The list of ratings excludes anything with nudity (brief or otherwise) and excessive blasphemous uses of God's or Jesus's "literal" name. Those two things remove our interest in watching a movie. No entertainment is worth compromising your walk with Christ, so avoid movies that do. Our conscience is clear about watching certain movies, if yours is not, then avoid the movie.

My Movie List

If you see a movie in the above list rated below a 5, then that movie should be avoided, because upon watching it, something not mentioned in the reviews or ratings, was inappropriate to see or hear.

Our entire movie list is on IMDB.

On another note, the best movie I've ever watched is American Gospel: Christ Alone:

Python SUDS with Windows Authentication (SOAP)

-
While intergrating Plone with CRM4, I stumbled upon Suds. However, it didn't support NTLM. Then I found python-ntlm, and merged the two libs. Below is the result. You can add it at the bottom of suds/transport.py class WindowsHttpAuthenticated(HttpAuthenticated): """ Provides Windows (NTLM) http authentication. @ivar pm: The password manager. @ivar handler: The authentication handler. @author: Christopher Bess """ def __init__(self, options): # try to import ntlm support try: from ntlm import HTTPNtlmAuthHandler except ImportError: raise Exception("Cannot import python-ntlm module") return HttpTransport.__init__(self, options) self.pm = u2.HTTPPasswordMgrWithDefaultRealm() self.handler = HTTPNtlmAuthHandler.HTTPNtlmAuthHandler(self.pm) self.urlopener = u2.build_opener(self.handler) u2.install_opener(self.urlopener)

Text Sherlock the OpenGrok alternative (Source Code Search Engine)

-

OpenGrok has taken much to long to setup in the past, so in my dissatisfaction, I wrote Text Sherlock . Text Sherlock strives to be an easy to setup version of OpenGrok , written in Python. Think of Text Sherlock as a personal source code search engine. But, it can be run from a dedicated server. Features: It has built-in support for whoosh and xapian backends. It provides a web search interface similar to GitHub. It quickly installs. Set the configuration options in the local_settings.yml script. Then run an installation script in your install directory. Once done, everything is a simple command. Web search interface. Matched document interface. Well documented and it works as expected. Check it out and drop a comment or submit an issue via GitHub. https://github.com/cbess/text-sherlock

How to remove, update, or replace the WKWebView inputAccessoryView

-
Many others, including myself, have been trying to safely modify the WKWebView.inputAccessoryView. Now in iOS 13+, you can do it! TL;DR; The WebKit team update the code, Apple updated their dependency in iOS 13. Swift code sample: import WebKit class RichEditorWebView: WKWebView { var accessoryView: UIView? override var inputAccessoryView: UIView? { // remove/replace the default accessory view return accessoryView } } In another class somewhere: // set accessory view to replace it, if left untouched, then it will be removed let webView = RichEditorWebView() webView.accessoryView = SomeAwesomeInputAccessoryView() Because WebKit is a library that iOS uses (like SQLite), I assumed that Apple would update that dependency as well for iOS 13, since the change was resolved around June 2019.
