Countercounterpoint. Yes.

The original Gojira is a classic work of world cinema about the horrors of nuclear war, but it also has a line about dinosaurs being around two million years in the past. Serious or goofy, this has never been a franchise rooted in realism or even basic scientific accuracy. It’s all about emotions, the way audiences…

The thing I really appreciate about these movies is the spectacular level of dumbness to which they commit themselves. There’s no effort to ground the action in any kind of plausibility, like having a scientist character namedrop Einstein-Rosen Bridges in a Marvel movie. It’s just straight-up 19th Century Hollow Earth…

A benchmark for it’s ability to extrapolate. We know what it should look like, the AI extrapolates what it “thinks” it should look like. Then we can compare the two. Presumably, we could also provide said benchmark to the AI to see if it can figure out why it failed to match the original material and thereby get…

Came back up in my feed too.  Is it because of Thanksgiving, maybe?

#16 was paramount

Will accept nothing else...not even K.I.T.T....

I think this is primarily an issue (that Google is more than happy to jump on) because Apple refuses to adopt RCS, which is a universal, global communications standard. It’s not a Google invention or exclusive.

Look, I think Joe Jonas seems like a twerp, and his habitual demeanor reminds me more than anything of someone waking up from general anaesthesia, but let’s not take weird swipes at his height - that’s shitty.

I switched when Windows went to 11 (!) and wouldn’t run on old machines without the Trusted Party Module. I had rebuilt my tower over and over again, but at that point I became a free agent and went M1 Mac. I have a suspicion that I’m not the only one who needed a new machine at exactly the same point as Apple rolled…

So uh... Depending on the arrowhead used, compound bows can have better penetration than 9mm bullets or even .22 bullets...

Agreed. That was probably the second-worst thing about my 2018 MBP, next to the butterfly keyboard.

I need to know the story of the two french sisters who bought a 25 year old Chrysler product and road tripped it to a rally in the desert.

True, but in your case, I suppose the lack of metadata would be evidence of falsification..

Or, you could just chop your head off. 

So lightbulb manufacturers entered into a collective agreement

Can we all just take a minute and observe that the top photo is pretty decent photoshop work? The pacifier is so-so, but the baby sun hat is a pretty convincing sell.  Just needs a little more edge blur and depth of field.  Nice!

I find the brainfart that led to that error more fascinating than anything. Sure, the flags look similar, but it’s not like somebody is grabbing them out of a hat in order to make a digital render. I just want to know how it happened. Did they just space and think he was Cuban or were they really searching, “blue,…

Wait. A. Minute...
