I suspect the third reason might be that most media is owned by a handful of people. If there's no money in news, why are these companies owned by billionaires? [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentration_of_med

>I'll never be a rich man. But I will lead a rich life. it's interesting how relative this statement is. For a lot of people, being able to lead a rich life means you're already rich; if you're not worrying about mone

King's come around by saying basically it is a good movie but a bad adaption, and he's not wrong. They're two different stories with different characters.

I looked up their meta critic scores out of curiosity: Elemental - Metacritic score of 58/100 The Little Mermaid - Metascore of 59/100 Indiana Jones - Metascore of 58/100 Wish - Metascore of 48/100 Haunted Mansion - of 4

I don't understand your use flow there. I have a hue bridge with a static ip in my house that controls my lights. Management through a third party app is instant. Are you individually connecting to each light through Bluetooth?

Oh, dang. The screenwriting she's done for fantastic beasts is not on par with her novel writing. If she's something like a show runner here with hands on each script, it would make the series suffer. Some people are great at stor

Could you detail a bit more your gpt4 usage for language learning? I was wanting to get back into French and thought about using chatgpt, but I'm worried about it's hallucinations and teaching me wrong.

Depends on your political alignment. Superhero movies are basically fascist propaganda (the people who are most powerful will have your best interests in mind and save you, you dear children who enjoy comic books in your adulthood).

It's the one I still use! Between it's constant updates and plugin support, I have no desire to swap to something new.

It sounds like you found a problem you're improving. I don't want to stop you. But to me it feels like a bandaid fix, a short term stop gap for a larger issue. The reason it got a negative response from me is that I look at the pr

For real, it seems this business asked "How can we make living harder for the majority of the population?" And found an answer.

It ends with him saying his ultimate goal is to funnel the worlds wealth into a non profit, then redistribute it. Kind of terrifying that the future of the world relies on one guy, basically. I wonder if in his contracts with microsoft, the

You're right in your thoughts. It's the perfect form factor for those single player narrative games, especially if you don't own a tv w/ a steamlink or the like. I usually have trouble finishing games, because i'm o

I just tried playing Curse of Strahd with chatgpt4. It seems like it generally does okay, but changes so many things for no real reason -- often to determiental levels (ie, the first two characters i ran into knew about artifacts that are s

I was about to set up a matrix server with Cloudflare Tunnel, but now I'm going to try funnel instead due to e2ee staying intact.

Smart to cut yourself off. Unless you're a production company, it makes most sense to rent the gear for a planned shoot.

When I was a teen, I heard an author say they loved signing clearly well worn copies of their books. Not only did it mean it was not likely going to be resold, but it also meant it was well loved. I've always treated my books roughly s

Your product claims to be end to end encrypted. Since it is closed source, do you plan on providing any proof via a third-party security audit?

You'd have to pay me to sign up for a meta account. I'm sad the general population is okay with paying to be the product.
