Perfect precursor to a real AI-driven Thought Police to seek and arrange arrest of all responsible for thoughtcrimes as defined by the ruling regime.

It’s the Radiohead/Napoleon mash up we’ve always wanted

He thinks BIG PICTURE for sure. Hard to imagine someone else doing it like him, in quite that way. Genius gets thrown around but... genius.

Based on my extensive knowledge of Assassin’s Creed Unity, the English accent Napoleon spoke with here is historically accurate.

Herbert Lom is seriously underrated

Sidenote: up until now, the greatest performance as Napoleon was by Herbert Lom (yes, the guy from Pink Panther) in King Vidor’s epic adaptation of War and Peace. Not much screentime, but he fully embodies everything you’d imagine Napoleon would be like.

Ridley Scott is such a treasure - he’s getting up there in years and I’m going to miss his work when he’s gone. He’s taken some big swings and had some misses, but man. He takes his shot and he’s made some great, great films in his career. Very excited to watch this.

That looks really good, actually. Man, intrigued by this movie a lot.

Working /touring comedians actually make a lot of money. Before the age of Netflix guys like Brain Reagan, Bobby Slaton and other that weren’t exactly household names, were millionaires just from touring.

He made enough money to randomly buy his dad a Cadillac, after all.

Plus, there was that one episode where Elaine sees how much he makes (maybe that was related to the Cadillac), and, because of his income, is suddenly attracted to him again.

He was also the Bubble Boy’s and Keith Hernandez’s favorite comedian and he also did some local commercials. So there is some indication that he was at least modestly famous.

Exactly what you are saying is not the case in Europe. There, public view means anything that can be seen when on foot. Not when using a crane or drone.
As such, taking pictures of copyrighted landmarks is allowed under EU law when taken from public property,i.e. on foot. But if you take pictures with a drone, you have…

Going to sound VERY weird/gross, but like, isn’t this akin to upskirt cameras? Where “what is publicly viewable” is literally a matter of perspective, and that perspective may be incredibly unreasonable.

Well, GE images are only updated every 1-36 months so there is a wide range of time it may not be accurate.

I doubt they saw anything with the drone that’s not shown on google earth. Which raises the question of why the town paid for information they could have gotten for free.

I could see a lot of opinions on this depending on how much of a police state someone is comfortable with. The concept of something being in ‘plain sight’ or ‘public view’ was very different just 30 years ago versus how easy it is for the government to use modern tech to see & do a lot without a warrant. I won’t be…

I think there is an expected but not quite documented level of privacy above your property of like 500 feet, but that isn’t really that high for the resolution and zoom a lot of cameras have now.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I’m no lawyer, but I think it’s generally accepted that if something can be seen from a public area, such as the street, that no warrant is required. My bet would be that the Michigan Supreme Court decides that the sky above someone’s property is public, but who knows.…

Except Seinfeld was never presented as “small time” and it was also the 1990s. If you have issues with his relatively modest TV apartment, what do you say about Friends?
