Hey James, now that Gizmodo’s not owned by the herb anymore, how about finally booting the obvious trolls?

You’re going to proclaim PIP as the best Star Wars character ever? Good luck telling a certain homicidal maniac that.

Hiroyuki Shimozawa? You mean Hiroyuki Sanada, right!?

According to other articles, it is an adaptation of the Gardner book. Also, the Henson Company is involved. Two points that might have been interesting to mention.

I just wish they’d give us a proper UCS Milano. LEGO’s already done the Milano two or three times at this scale, and then they double-dipped again for the new Guardians ship (Benatar). The newer sets are definitely more screen accurate than the old ones, but they feel super tiny once you shove all four minifigures…

That makes it two of us. Somehow I like the Milano better. 

You’d be surprised!

It’s exactly why he hates unions, seeing as how they might object to workers being maimed on the regular

Oh my god, when you say he “never finished” I got curious, looked it up, and he just died on March 20th! How the hell did I not come across any obits on my usual haunts? Time was, someone of his stature might have earned at least a small news bit on here when they passed. (Though thinking about it I just haven’t…

I was feeling pretty agnostic about which Dem wound up with Feinstein’s old seat, but knowing that these people really don’t want her to have the job, suddenly I *very much* want her to have the job.

Easily the best part of Helix, too.

“within one’s native language, accents are impossible”

That statement is simply incorrect. Accents are differences in pronunciation of words. Dialects are different words and vocabulary.

BTW, the Minnesota accent is NOT limited to the upper north of the state.

Probably just about everything. But probably specifically the potentially huge liability that they could face depending on how the winds blow in regards to legislation around AI and training data and royalties (talking billions).

No, that cannot be assumed. It’s an extremely pervasive myth that a lot of people believe, that publicly traded companies HAVE to maximize profit by law. It comes up time and time again in these discussions.

Don’t help give companies the shield of “oh well we just legally HAVE to do it!” because it’s a lie.
The C-suites…

Boy howdy would we be better off if nobody ever taught kids on the internet what a fiduciary obligation is. There is no law that corporations pursue exponential profit margins. Agents of the corporation are required to act in good faith with respect to the interests of the board and shareholders. Maintaining a good…

You know what? No. I’ve had it today. I’m not gonna let this lie.

I haven’t been paying much attention to Critical Role for a while so I missed the restraining order, but prior to that I’d noticed she had stopped wearing her ring which I thought was a little odd. The full story is a lot worse than I ever could have imagined.

Thank God someone thought of the children and made all these fairy tale characters public domain. What a hero. Now we’re finally free to use Snow White and the Big Bad Wolf as characters in our own works.
