Ew, vinegar?!

I donated my DVD collection (200ish titles) to my local library last year. Warmed my heart a bit to read this.

Which I like. I work in IT and am constantly getting shocked reactions when I say I don’t use AI and that it’s actually problematic in a lot of ways… A lot of people are not aware. I hope more companies choose to brand themselves as “human,” as long as it’s true.

At least 38% – The other 62% still vote the way the way they do in spite of their suspicions.

For an old, white, career politician, he looks exceptionally trustworthy.

They’ll fix it in the next patch.

Our kitty has the same tattoo. Whenever we spot it, we like to regale him with the fun but regrettable story of how he got so blasted on catnip in Cabo for Spring Break 2012, that he woke up with no recollection of even having got it. But he did, it happened, the proof is right there.

But he’s matured a lot since then.

“Computer, is there any way to generate… A nude Trump?”

The man cannot tell the truth, so it’s perfectly on-brand.

Imagine being able to maintain an erection while looking at that illustration.

Well, if it ain’t the ol’ Reverse Barbara Streisand Effect Method…

I did a highschool social studies project on Sweden with a focus on their musicians, and featured (among others) Freak Kitchen… I got to play about 30 seconds of “Walls of Stupidity” for a class of 20 or so highschoolers, and I can remember the teacher melting under her desk when she heard the line “I am God in your asshole.”

Anyway, it’s been almost 20 years since I have heard anyone even mention the name of this band, and I’m all for it. Thanks for sharing.

Withdrawal is an unpleasant, but necessary, part of detox.

On the other hand, I 100% agree it’s going to be a shit show. Technological development has outpaced the law as long as I’ve been alive, and the disparity is only growing… Authorities are not equipped to provide solutions to the problems that technology has created, and continues to create.

Fast forward 100 years, and we’ll be working on anti-ad glasses that counteract the Meta glasses that counteract the anti-ad glasses that counteract the Elon eye implants. 😔

If it’s not “baked in” to the video, then it seems like it should be trivial to detect and block the ad… Ugh, or else it’s literally new technological horrors beyond my comprehension, which is also very possible.

Not when the only metric considered is ROI.

18 Gang, represent! Let the bed-clothes do the bed-clothing.

If I miss a day of Zyrtec, I can get into the 30s easy

What made it so effective?

It’s a testament to the power of artfulness in filmmaking, which is all the more effective in our present setting because so many of its peers are little more than hollow investment vehicles for the wealthy to get wealthier.

One of the major traits of films directed by Eggers is his “strict attention to detail”.

A24 is also known for the originality and artistic style of films it produces, generally shunning the style of films produced or released by the major film studios…

To be a bit more specific, I think The Lighthouse was so effective because it had everything a film needs to be effective: Every component was carefully planned and masterfully executed, a collaboration of countless professionals at the top of their game with the funding and studio support they needed to get the project done, and without any distracting baggage like product placement, surprise cameos, merchandise, or jarring music/editing choices.

Perfectly on-brand: He got what he needed, so now fuck you.
