This is probably the most textbook example of Moving the Goalposts I’ve ever seen.

The fact that there are employees like you out there who would be OK with this kind of behavior is almost more frightening than the fact that there are companies who do this crap.

Which they will probably try addressing through other avenues than this. Who knows if it’ll be successful, but they’re not willing to resort to this just yet.

No, because I want to watch movies in the theater. The internet does not offer a solution for that. To watch movies in theaters, we need theaters. And more than the occasional art house. If art houses had to bear the load of mainstream movie releases, they wouldn’t be able to serve their current function of showing…

Art houses can’t hold up to the volume of releases we have. They’ll have to be really choosy about what films they show. And finding a theater nearby would be harder, since there would be way less of them.

Sometimes == pretty much always, in my mind.

God, I hope not. I love movie theaters.

I think by not participating in this program, their status quo will be maintained. They’ll still play movies for as long as they always have, and they won’t receive any of the incentives Paramount is offering to theaters who do participate.

I hate cynical people.

It’s Star Wars, of course it has a name. He goes on to become an assassin, taking on contracts from the Rebel Alliance to take out high-ranking members of the Imperial remnant. Rumor has it he’ll show up in the background of some shots in Episode VII.

I’m also full of shit.

Man, he really looks like a Reeve here.

That’s exactly what it is. The YouTube app on my iPhone does the same thing. When I perform a search, and go to tap on the first result, an ad loads right under my finger right before I press. It’s a really shitty practice.

Yep

Ah, I see. That kind of chart doesn’t really adequately convey the idea that dinosaurs are all archosaurs, and rather seems to show that archosaurs and dinosaurs branched off separately from a common point.

I think you’re missing my point in all the semantics. According to that chart, aves isn’t within dinosaur, as you state. It branches off beforehand, from archosaurs.

Did you ever see it written? I work with an Indian man named Dixit, and it is pronounced just like that.

All modern birds fall under Aves, right? So this chart says that modern birds actually aren’t technically evolved from dinosaurs, but from archosaurs. Which is correct?
