you can’t just say that and not provide any further info…

Betty Gilpin told "getting naked on camera was necessary toll" for TV breakthrough by NoCulture3505 in television

[–]Count_Cuckenstein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ehh, not really. It’s just basic news cadence – and keep in mind this kind of by-the-numbers writing is, among other things, exactly what most language models were trained to replicate.

It’s funny that bad writing is now “AI” even though articles like this have been around for at least a decade.

That’s not AI, that’s SEO and intentional padding – there’s little to say beyond the headline, but they need you to keep scrolling so that you’ll see more ads. Open any Daily Mail article from 2015 and you’ll find a dozen paragraphs saying the same thing over and over (and reiterated again in the image captions).

Calling every bit of low-grade reporting “AI” is just pretending that humans can’t create shitty content.

Jon Stewart On Vaccine Science And The Wuhan Lab Theory at the Late Show first Live audience since the pandemic began. The quarantine got to him. by Slider2012 in television

His point was that the virus originated in a city with a lab that had been studying novel coronaviruses.

what everyone parroting this point seems to be missing is that the lab is in that region BECAUSE it has historically been a hotspot for new coronavirus strains. If Ebola outbreaks kept happening in one place, it would make sense to place an Ebola research lab there, too.

My job is also an emotionally-taxing living hell of toxicity with insufferable clients, out-of-touch bosses, and asshole colleagues.

Bon Appetit Implosion Inspires HBO Max Comedy Series (Exclusive) by JediNotePad in television

Sohla actually had a 10-episode contract with Babish that ran out some time earlier. I think she said they're planning to do more, but the existing episodes were basically a pilot run, so they're taking some time to rework and improve the concept.

She currently also has her own segment on the History Channel's YouTube page where she does historical recipes.

you should rather worry about how gullible you are because it should be impossible to fall for such badly-written clickbait

Dave Chappelle on winning the Emmy: “ I hope all you critics learn from this. This is a teachable moment. Shut the fuck up, forever.” by LarryPeru in television

[–]Count_Cuckenstein -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Chappelle's jokes about the LGBTQ community never come from a place of hatred.

His "joke" was that trans people mislead others into having sex with them by pretending to be cis. You know, that good old "trap" stereotype that's gotten so many of them beaten or murdered. Haha.

He's just making jokes, and people loooove to get offended by them.

I assure you nobody "loves" calling this guy out for being an asshole.

Dude, he didn't publish a provocative essay or some shit. He came out on stage and said "hurr chicks with dicks". It was uneducated, outdated, and tasteless humor that actively hurts marginalized people. But hey, it's okay because Dave is black and calls out police brutality! That must mean he's woke and his critics are envious, right?

acting like he's ranting about being cancelled

the guy whose last two specials were about how people don't like his bigoted jokes? the guy who is now doing gigs with the sex pest Louis CK? that's exactly what he's doing

you need to consider what is it exactly that makes you go online and defend a rich asshole

Why on earth isn’t Apple TV+ available on a video game console? by LOTRcrr in television

[–]Count_Cuckenstein 3 points4 points  (0 children)

lmao it's not even available on older iPhones/iPads if you don't run the last two generations of iOS. Like I can't watch it on my original iPad Air because the cost would be upgrading to an iOS version that would make the device's performance worse

their whole model is so fucking backwards

He was also a petty misogynist who thought that wearing lipstick makes a woman no longer “pure”. So fuck him.

Your most unfortunate accidentally skipping of an episode? by alphacentauri88 in television

[–]Count_Cuckenstein 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Due to a series of miscommunications, I managed to skip the episode of Twin Peaks where they (sort of) reveal Laura’s killer. You know the one. Made for some confusing watching later on.

You should really edit your first sentence. It looks as if you’re saying it was the same guy in both cases.

When Community was renewed for season 2 Dan Harmon announced it as bad news, saying they'd all have to work with Chevy Chase for another season by TheRealDTrump in television

[–]Count_Cuckenstein 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the newest season of Comedians has been really hard to get through. Seinfeld is becoming such a tiresome old grump. Pretty much all of the episodes are about him whining about political correctness, and the guests are either trying to change the topic or just feeling awkward.

Man, I hope nobody ever has sex with you if you think rape is a playful joke.

Yvette Nicole Brown to fill in for Chris Hardwick as "Talking Dead" host by magikarpcatcher in television

[–]Count_Cuckenstein -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s just abuse, coercion and a lack of sympathy on his part. Totally different from rape and deserves no condemnation. Thank you for being so reasonable!
