It's a common meme in Warhammer that Magnus did nothing wrong... It is also a correct statement regardless of how you look at it. He was instructed to do nothing. And he did that wrong.

The Youth are just wrong here. Exclamation marks by themselves are expressions of surprise, not agreement, this is like an iron law of comics

So I just learned that Brian K Vaughan, co-creator and writer of Saga, wrote the screenplay for Dune Part 3 coming up. Now it has my attention. BKV does not miss, and the man knows space operas.
I just learned that the Criterion collection is releasing Del Toro’s Frankenstein on Blu Ray, and already has his Pinocchio. Why can’t they do that with the two later Knives Out movies, also currently exclusive to Netflix?
What I feel when I even *consider* using an LLM is best described as… revulsion?
interesting thing that is rarely talked about with authors trying to use AI in debut novels: you will get caught once edits start or at MOST on book two. self publishing is different i suppose, but anyone out there trying to break into traditional publishing with AI clearly does not know the process

If Amnesty is afraid to call anti-rights groups anti-rights, they are no longer fit for purpose.
This is also true for the generic corporate music composition gigs. Music that exists to sound optimistic on corporate videos without actually evoking any meaningful emotion. It was steady gig work and a foot in the door. And I don’t begrudge anyone who wrote that kind of music.
Owen Dennis: Infinity Train/Among Us Show creator@owendennis.com · last wk.Seeing every small business, be it a local restaurant, a moving company, whatever, all having AI logos and AI ads, really puts into perspective just how many artists are out of jobs now.

Do y'all know who Emily Wilson is before she wrote a scathing critique of a Hollywood movie? She's one of the scholars & translators to be most respected, I've had my eye on her for a while. She's a big deal for her contributions & Homer is her whole heart. She gives no fucks about Hollywood.

I know eulogies and funerals are for the living. But when we say that we don’t mean we’re supposed to appease a dementia addled narcissist by talking about them.
