A ★★★★★ review of Frankenstein (2025) Short review, if you have Netflix there is no reason to skip this anyway. I've had the lovely opportunity to see this in a cozy 30-seat theater and got every bit of emotion out of this wonderful film....

Chained to a busy week, but took the time out for this one:

AI generated content disclosure via Arc Raider's Steam page: The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this: During the development process, we may use procedural- and AI-based tools to assist with content creation. In all such cases, the final product reflects the creativity and expression of our own development team.

Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice.

They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

Ein Verbrenner, also eine Wärmekraftmaschine, verwandelt 70 Prozent der Energie in Wärme: Das ist gut, wenn Sie eine Heizung auf Rädern brauchen, aber schlecht, wenn es um Bewegungsenergie geht. Und um die geht's halt beim Autofahren und eben weniger darum, auf der Motorhaube ein Omelett zu braten. Umgekehrt würden Sie's auch nicht begrüßen, wenn zwei Drittel Ihrer Heizkosten dafür draufgingen, dass Ihr Heizkörper durch die Wohnung rollt. Gerade wir sparsamen Schwaben hätten eigentlich die Ersten sein müssen, die sich vom Verbrenner verabschieden: Wenn Sie für 80 Euro volltanken, zahlen Sie gut 56 Euro davon einfach nur dafür, dass Ihr Motor heiß wird. Daran ändern auch E-Fuels nichts. Verbrennungsmotoren sind Verschwendungsmotoren. Die Erkenntnis quält, weil wir in Württemberg gut 100 Jahre lang zum Begriff "schwäbische Ingenieurskunst" onaniert haben, aber verglichen mit einem elektrischen Antrieb ist selbst der raffinierteste Verbrenner ein schlechter Witz.

I've just rewatched the 2002 one, this is perfect to find the next one.

please watch movies and read books and play games and look at art, please view it with your own eyes through a lens you made yourself and not just through video essayists and ending explained videos please im begging you

Perhaps the most ominous satellite presentation we've seen. Cat 5 Melissa within 2 hours of landfall in Jamaica. Winds at 185 mph (tied for 2nd highest on record). Pressure at 892 mb (tied for 3rd lowest). Will be one of strongest Atlantic storms to make landfall ever recorded.

Normally I like putting Unwinding Clock or Sol Ring in it. But with Mycosynth, copies of Seedborn Muse should put the fear of God into people.

Guillermo del Toro quote "...think about wealth for me for example. A wealthy man that has enough..."

"not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite somebody to beer..."

"...you're rich. If you have, whatever-"

"- yachts and planes and islands and you STILL need more? You're not rich."

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

No, but they don't care much about their own foot.

Spotify stock graph showing a decrease of $28 in one day (Friday 10/24), the day after Spotify’s boycott became a trending topic on Bluesky. This is a roughly 5% decrease in value.

Y’all, Spotify’s stock price sunk by 5% in 1 day. YOU did this by spreading the word to boycott them for running ICE ads.

These billionaires only speak one language—money—so let’s keep up the pressure. Tell everyone you know to cancel their Spotify subscriptions. Send them to BoycottSpotify.com.

Investors high on coke and acid want to share their daily experience.

Microsoft Pushes Xbox Division to Hit Higher Profit Margins Management’s goal of 30% profit margins for gaming has led to job losses, canceled projects

Fans have spent the last two years wondering why Xbox is closing studios, canceling games, raising prices, cutting jobs, and releasing its games on rival PlayStation and Nintendo platforms.

This ambitious 30% profit margin target helps explain many of those moves. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Love it, a bit more precise, a lot more flexible.

So, who is going to turn it into a short video first? We need that.

Read this in quicker doomscroll session than usual, it can be done. Quite well put together.
As Jim (from Spikes) points out, just talking with content of the arrows already helps.

New developments in my 3 year Epstein investigation, this time regarding JP Morgan Chase and its CEO, Jamie Dimon. This is a long thread, but worth sticking around for.

You will find me complaining about AI and not using it professionally.

JK Rowling pledges to keep up fight against SNP trans policies Author vows to bankroll campaigners after Scottish government fails to pay group's legal fees in Supreme Court equality case

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Yikes, well that will keep the kids from playing something all-ages.

Mann Co. Robots, standing there, menacingly.

Alita Battle Angel has some mean looks, though technically cyborgs.

Putting in TF2s Mann Co. Bots would be funny.

This from @realgdt.bsky.social talking about 'Frankenstein' is so good.

Anyone still trying Elsha, the Infinite? I'm alone?
