You do realize virtually all movies are made up of shots often lasting no longer than 10 seconds. Edited together. Right.

I love these hot takes based on profoundly incredible tech that literally just launched. Acting like 2030 isn't around the corner.

Is this a joke? Go outside. Go hiking. Make a garden. Visit Yosemite. Take up bouldering. Learn to surf. Cycle. Go camping. There's a world of living and massive communities but around real life. Explore what your body and mind can do

That is a ridiculous take. Look at the absolute SEA of bottom-barrel content flooding every single streaming platform. For people at the top of the studio system, they are already living out their AI power trips, just in the meatspace. The

I don't believe for a hot second Spotify has 600,000,000 legitimate users.

Hardware is just fancy physics. Medicine is just fancy chemistry.

This is heavily reducing the human experience. Even better technology and post-scarcity aren't magic solutions to all of the insanely weird evolutionary quirks/pitfalls/problems built into our monkey brains. Having a planet o

Awesome, thanks. I'm only versed in JS and Lua and all of my pixel fonts are basically glyphs on a big sprite sheet of 32x32 pixel grid cells. How difficult would it be for me to simply patch what you've started to work off someth

Love the font but wish you'd share your custom algorithm. I've designed a number of pixel fonts in the past I'd love to convert to strokes in this way. Any chance you'd release a little conversion kit?

Why is this downvoted? What's wrong about it?

SF homeless isn't even REMOTELY comparable to NYC, and I've lived in both cities for 8 years each. Not even the same planet.

And why do you continue to deal with scum like this? You're ultimately going to pay it and business will carry on as usual for them.

You just added yet another Thing in that huge pile of things representing millions of lines of code. That's the point.

Too bad there's no way to hide the ugly pixelated state/country borders to just see the beautiful raw photography.

Is it possible to build a smooth hires animation of these? How often are the images updated?

Honestly, I get that it somehow became cool to ignore the grammatically correct "computation" and "computational resources" in favor of just grunting "compute" — why not go all the way? "efficient utility

And yet if you can't even implement a smooth scroll of 2D images over a backdrop in 2024, why would I listen to your opinion of microservices?

This will be a boon for Fortnite's licensed character business, Disney's merchandising business, Disney+'s content, and absolute downgrade/extortion for all Unreal users. Guaranteed.

Is taking screenshots of a paused YouTube video illegal?

Eh. If I make short documentaries in MP4 format and only distribute them in RSS are they podcasts? If I'm a musician and make music videos through RSS are those podcasts? In other words, is any 1+ set of media files on RSS a podcast?

A very bizarre subset of the population enjoy reading reviews for some reason. Either to: tell them how to feel about something, to validate their own opinion because they lack social company in real life to do so, or because they enjoy it

Since day one, Pitchfork (all white nerds) used to love to throttle good music but they'd always give a pass to mainstream rap, praising even the most generic mass produced hip hop, like they always secretly wanted to fit in with that

This does not make sense to me. ChatGPT is completely nerfed to the point where it's either been conditioned or trained to provide absolutely zero concrete responses to anything. All it does is provide the most baseline, generic possib

"As someone who didn't grow up with computers, can someone explain the appeal of spending hours alone staring at a screen? Why would you want to be isolated in a dark room for extended periods tapping on a keyboard, when you can s

It's their culture of saving face. The solution is extremely simple. You tell the person "I was told I had to pay this <X fee> to release my package but I don't know who or where I pay" while waving the cash around

It's always a guy with a gun. Fact of life. Border crossings? Find the guy with the biggest gun and bribe him. South America, Eastern Europe, etc. Import/exports have armed security too.
