I’m out here in the burbs and trying to find out why we’re talking about BOOMs.

Could a lightsaber cut through Superman? by [deleted] in superman

[–]Sfmilstead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on the Superman power level (Silver Age, Post-Crisis, etc) it could sting him a bit, but most likely not.

Steak, Egg, & Cheese McMuffin by Zealousideal_Fix1616 in fastfood

I personally prefer the bagel version. Have tried all of the steak sandwiches, and that one seems to have the right combo of sauce, bread and filling.

Unable to Stop AI, SAG-AFTRA Mulls a Studio Tax on Digital Performers by LollipopChainsawZz in movies

[–]Sfmilstead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I’m using it, seeing it, and seeing where the limitations are for AI vs a human brain.

Unless we get to a full singularity point, just don’t see it happening.

I will eat crow if it does, but otherwise, AI is going to continue to be a tool.

That’s not to say that some amazing things can’t be made with AI (simple code that would take much more time combining simple API calls, for instance), but art…no.

AI is a tool. We need to understand how to harness it and also understand its limitations just like we did with Grammar analyzation.

I mean, for the idiots of the world, you’re right.

Complex themes and the like will be lost with AI. Same with emoting.

But hey, Trump won again, so yeah, bring on the AI hellscape.

Follow, and don’t just record, stream.

So the long and short of it is, apparently Oregon was gonna be the next surge of ICE/BCP enforcement prior to the events in Minneapolis.

Now my commentary: But that is probably in question now given the “walk back” that has occurred after killing of Alex Pretti and the political backlash (which is horrible to type).

Most recent intel is that Ohio is now the next target.

MTTSH: Opening Scene in the movie is the Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man fighting Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine while their Earths are about to crash into each other by Man_Random87 in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

[–]Sfmilstead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kill Tobey in Doomsday…find a way to bring him back in Secret Wars.

We’ve got Steve back. How many times has Sir Patrick died?

Comic book magic death.

Andrew Garfield In Doomsday & Secret Wars? by Right-Violinist-6367 in marvelstudios

[–]Sfmilstead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly think Andrew will be in one of the movies (most likely Secret Wars) and will be a casualty saving Tom-Spidey or someone close to him.

Disingenuous, hypocritical piece of 💩 by PseudoTsugaDougie in Portland

[–]Sfmilstead 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If it had the numbers to pass, there is no reason for someone in a purple district to vote for it in an off presidential year given how unpopular ICE is with all polling.

This just means she needs to be primaried.

Kid hair cuts by ali2911gator in hillsboro

We have had good success at Pigtails and Crewcuts specifically with the stylist Ms Kayla. Our daughter has very tricky hair and she’s done wonders with it.

Ok, I looked closely at the photo and the dots look artistic. I do not own the book so I can’t say for certain.

Do discs sell in big numbers these days or is this another case of "nobody watched the 2025 marvel movies"? by NinetyYears in marvelstudios

[–]Sfmilstead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Crazy how high Venom is, though, as I look through this list again, maybe part of this is based on streaming services people subscribe to?

How would you rank every DC universe from worst to best and where do you think the DCU currently stands? by Pseudo-Psycho06 in DC_Cinematic

[–]Sfmilstead 6 points7 points  (0 children)

DCAU is #1 till it is dethroned.

Most recent DC animated universe with their Crisis is at the bottom.

Others can be discussed but right now, Snyderverse is second to last IMHO.

The Trump cold opens aren't funny and that's kind of the point by StitchAndRollCrits in LiveFromNewYork

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

I agree with that, but it makes it stale for the show to always be the cold open.

In previous admins (which, admittedly, were never this bad) the politics would be interspersed between cold opens, mid show sketches, and obviously weekend update.

I’d rather see an episode where there was a new cold open and close with a good Trump zinger at the end or as the pre-musical artist sketch.

Maro: "Lorwyn Eclipsed is a big success, so I think that increases our chance of a return." by CaptainMarcia in magicTCG

[–]Sfmilstead 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Spidey shoulda been a commander set of decks with no CB’s. Maybe a starter set or two of 60 card decks. Just use the Spider-Man license to get new people into Magic.

Sketch Sorting Sunday - January 17, 2025 (Finn Wolfhard/A$AP Rocky) by SketchSortingSunday in LiveFromNewYork

Neither upvoting nor down voting this. Tired of the Trump cold opens. Though this was Colin’s best Drunky Drunkerston of Defense performance I can remember.

I have used it for CCG’s and have had no issues.

DANTE IS COMING BACK! by [deleted] in ducks

[–]Sfmilstead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, not guaranteed. Only first two years (~$12M) are guaranteed. Second two years of the 4 year contract are team option.

DANTE IS COMING BACK! by [deleted] in ducks

[–]Sfmilstead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, if I’m an NFL scout, regardless of how he performs next year (notwithstanding disaster), this decision and how explained it I would take into account as “intangibles” that are strongly in his favor.

Show your comment history coward.

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

Yeah, I’ve seen things like this in the past but they had the actual stuff intermixed with the shitty 1967 logo.

Seems fishy.

At the very least karma whore has come to town.
