You might as well ask,
"Hey, Guillermo, why don't you hire someone else to make art for you?"
He'd say "No, *I* like making the art."
In fairness the movie barely explains what it is

The last significant innovation in cell phones was the iPhone, almost twenty years ago. Since then, phones are just that, but with more specs and better cameras. They don't *do* anything new or unique.
22.10.2025 22:01 โ ๐ 4 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I think sometimes about how part of the problem with a great deal of tech is that it's over. Like, operating systems have been pretty much complete since the late '90s. Your Windows 11 machine doesn't do anything that an XP box couldn't, except it requires 100ร the resources.

Williams requested a local brewery supply 84 litres of demineralized water for their race car's cooling needs.
Adelaide has long been famous for poor tap water, but I suspect few F1 teams ever used it anyway.
