Exactly. No matter what, this bill will make things slightly better for Canadians.

“Facebook doesn’t like it” is really all I need to know to support it.

I never get tired of seeing other countries smack down American corporations.

If you’re getting your news from Facebook, you’ve got bigger problems than this.

Oh noes, I might have to get my news information from reputable sources and only use Facebook for staying in touch with my grandma, noooooo... -_-

Cry me a river while we play the world’s smallest violin.

He also mentioned that since they’ve been doing deep sea excursions (I think he dated back to the 60's?) there have been zero fatalities — until now. That’s a pretty astounding track record, that this negligent “expedition” now undermines.

Cannon films would’ve cleaned house on this (worst) list. 

It raises* the question

Is it just me or is watching 50 something people have sex and whine about their rich people problems about as boring as watching paint dry.

With this being a new show with a new name instead of Season 8 of Sex and the City, it should be able to stand on its own without reference to that former series, like you can watch Frasier without having watched Cheers. But the only reason to watch the adventures of Miranda, Carrie and Charlotte in And Just This Shit …

My guess is that they will follow the example of M in Casino Royale: just keep the actress every loves in the role, who cares if it’s a reboot, only hardcore nerds who can’t accept any non-diegetic explanation will be upset.*

“Tell us / without telling us” is a such a cringey meme template. It’s physically painful to read.

Part of this is them testing the waters and it needs to be made clear that the waters are unfriendly.

“But keep in mind that this is only the first step. They’re using AI art in a way where they can justify its deficiencies as a creative choice and say that they aren’t really taking work from human artists because they wanted it to look bad, actually. The next time won’t be this obvious or as brazen.”

This. Over…

I’m almost certain that what happened is that an exec at Marvel said “AI art is trendy and super cheap, let’s use that in something” and then the justifications about Secret Invasion involving spies and shapeshifters and questions about what is real were shoehorned in afterwards. The exec may not have even known how…

They’re using an AI generator here because the characteristic fucked-up way that it tends to render human subjects is artistically appropriate to the themes of the show.

Except in this one it’s only going back to 2021, not the 1940's.
