Ok but I bet it can’t identify which pictures contain street signs 

Yeah, but what happened when they asked it this?

It’s not perfect yet. “It was the best of times, it was the BLURST of times? DAMN YOU, STUPID TEXT GENERATOR!”

Nice. One of the very few things I did right in my youth was going to see an Apollo moon launch in person. In January of ‘71 I was finishing an undergrad degree in Physics at the University of Maryland, and some friends and I made the trek to Florida and saw Apollo 14 lift off from several miles away. We had a great…

Don’t forget Romulus now too... Fucking JJ Abrams. Vulcan and Romulus gone in one creatively lazy fell swoop. And what the fuck is “Red Matter”...?! Fucking stupid *grumble grumble grumble*...

Krypton, Vulcan & Alderaan are really all blown up and just don’t live up to the hype.

Can we all agree that David Attenborough is a planet wide treasure? I get sucked into Youtube holes so easily with him narrating things.

The problem with looking more “real” is more or less the same issue with the SOE that people hate. Outside of fast action scenes, the SOE gives the entire picture that extra sharp look that you get in Soap Operas. It looks too real. The same issue with the Hobbit in HFR, regardless of what you thought of the movies…

We queer dudes took back the pink triangle. And the word ‘queer.’ We non-Nazi folk can take back this from a bunch of idiots with their ‘mythology’ bullshit.

Oh good christ. Digging a little bit are we? Thule is a well known supplier of car/bike racks, Vw still makes cars and Hugo boss still makes suits. Are we gonna tsk tsk for every example of one time Nazi affiliation?

I heard Nazis used written words and breathed oxygen too. Guess we’re all Nazis now!! 

Didnt he?

On one hand, fuck Nazi’s. Obviously.

What are you talking about? LA is extremely dense. You think there’s room to put this stuff above ground?! Laughable. 

I think you’ll find, SIR, that the only alternative to letting Mr. Musk do whatever he pleases is doing absolutely nothing at all, forever.

He missed that opportunity, yes. But I think he lost the right to complain the moment he started working on $250k worth of footage without backing it up. That’s literally the very first thing that should be done after capturing valuable footage - duplicating it. 

If the footage was really that critical he should have turned his system off the moment the files were deleted instead of trying to recover them himself. The delete just marked the space as free to use and didn’t actually erase the data. While fumbling around the space was probably eventually overwritten. Solution…

You’re talking about just you media files backup 4 times? I had media files, backed up 3 times. Drobo DAS, Synology NAS, and 1 off site external disk. Whole system on 2 time machines one in to AirPort Extreme, one to DAS, and a monthly whole system clone to same offsite location at my office.

“Make backups upon backups of all your stuff—it sucks, it’s expensive, but it’s essential.”

I have to say the real lesson learned here is to always have at least two copies, preferably more, of your irreplaceable, valuable files.
