  • never put a face to the name Rob Schneider before

    he looks like the half of that stage magician duo who got cursed to never have a speaking role

  • if anything, Star Trek is less woke now

  • wowie, do you think Prime Minister Bank DeEngland is gonna veto it or will we get the more interesting outcome

  • If there's some part of Warhammer lore you think is really cool and unique, I can almost guarantee you that it's actually cribbing from a short sci-fi novel that was published in the 60s or 70s, and that short story still manages to more thoughtfully explore the concept more than all endless pages of lor and fan-wikis ever could

  • Aren't these the same chips Nvidia was begging the US government to exempt from the export restrictions? lol

  • Facebook was never burning billions of venture capital just as operating expenses.

  • Would it be effective advertising? Yes. Would it be a profitable business model for OpenAI? Ehhhh... kinda doubt it. Advertising (and tracking) may subsidize practically all search engines, but I don't think there's anywhere near enough marketing departments with the kind of spending budget Sam Altman needs to dig himself out of the hole.

  • It is clear to us that a lot of people want to use a lot of AI and don't want to pay, so we are hopeful a business model like this can work

    hm, do you think they'll do the smart thing and have the chatbots reprint advertising copy and premade images? Or are they gonna burn even more tokens generating ✨unique ads nobody wants or reads?

  • Optimistically, most of the comments to this were pointing that out.

    Pessimistically, I looked at twitter comments to learn that.

  • fill his hollowed out acorn full of soup and send him on his way while going tisk tisk and shaking your head ruefully

  • Good on her, not just giving up all agency. Hell, maybe there's even a chance she makes it out of this ok, given how many different plates the Trump admin is trying to keep spinning all at once both domestically and across multiple continents.

  • Was gonna say, it's really funny to contrast this with like Steve Bannon going in front of the Conservative Partnership Institute and proclaiming that if dems win 2028, then they're all going to prison.

    Chuds buy into the DNC pageantry of competent statesmanship just as much as liberals do^[because in America, everyone is a

    ], while additionally recognizing all the failures of liberal governance. They just think those failures are done on purpose.

  • Wasn't that same aircraft carriers pulled out of the region so they could patrol the Caribbean? Or am I thinking of a different one?

  • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empress_Chung

    On August 12, 2005, Empress Chung became the first film to have been released simultaneously in both North and South Korea. It played in 6 theaters in North Korea and 51 theaters in South Korea. The film won a prize at the 2003 Annecy International Animation Film Festival and won the top prize at the 2004 Seoul International Cartoon and Animation Festival. The film grossed US$140,000 on its opening weekend against a US$6.5 million budget.

  • Empress Chung was created as a collaborative work between South Korean (AKOM) and North Korean (SEK Studios) animators as a way to help unite the animation industry between the two nations during a time of increased collaboration and cooling of tensions in the early 2000s. While critically successful it failed in the box office.

    Due to its poor box office results and rising tensions between North Korea and South Korea over North Korea's nuclear missile tests, Empress Chung was never released on home media and became a lost film

    The truth is stranger than fiction. Not because you couldn't make this up, but because your publisher would tell you to tone it down a notch with the hack metaphors.
