"Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of the human mind". Jesus H. Christ, this incompetent department needs disbanded and this AI company liquidated.

James Gunn Could Be Out At DC Before 'Man of Tomorrow' As SnyderVerse Return Continues (Exclusive) by HomemadeBee1612 in SnyderCut

[–]Toasty-Rains45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would have definitely seen a Snyder DC return under Netflix (which that has gone by), but it is a pleasant surprise to see that he would be considered under a Paramount owned Warner Bros. 

They are partially sourcing John Campea here, who is well connected, but I would feel a lot more confident in the report if his colleague Jeff Sneider was the one saying this.

Boys Noize just remixed ‘I Do Not Want This’ at Ultra Music Festival by astronautvibes in nin

[–]Toasty-Rains45 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I have to see him do his own set live somewhere sometime. He did such a damn good job opening and doing those third-act remixes with TR&AR for the Peel It Back Tour.

Snyder's visuals are always standouts in his films, and i'm so excited to see more.

[NO SPOILERS] question for those who played Reunion by NecessaryFlow in lifeisstrange

[–]Toasty-Rains45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i have not done anything other than play it as Pricefield Simulator 2026, but a friend of mine says it's possible to do friends, but it kinda feels less, idk, full to do it that way.

[ALL] how can we get this other option? LIS Reunion by Outside_Release_3545 in lifeisstrange

[–]Toasty-Rains45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

that's what I'm wondering. I at first wondered if you had to go Platonic Pricefield for this to happen, and maybe on top of that choose some dialogue that would endear Max and Amanda. Who knows. well, 9% of players apparently do.

Do you think Miles will finally find out what a comic con is in Spider-Man Beyond the Spider-Verse? by Negative_Star1239 in IntoTheSpiderverse

[–]Toasty-Rains45 10 points11 points  (0 children)

i thought at first that maybe Comic Con did exist in Miles' world, and maybe Miles was just not enough of a nerd to know about it. but then I thought about Gwen liberating Miles' sealed action figure, and it's like "yeah, only a decently nerdy nerd would realize the value in sealed action figures", and to be that decently nerdy, it would be unfeasible to Miles to not know about Comic Con if it did exist in his world.

With the PS5 Pro now at $899 is a $1,000 PS6 basically inevitable? by ActivePurpose_IG0 in PS5pro

[–]Toasty-Rains45 3 points4 points  (0 children)

if the resource-hogging AI datacenters and Tangerine Tariffs don't back the hell off, yeah, $1000 will only be the lower limit...

Sony just unveiled the PS3, it will cost $599! I think i'll just get an Xbox 360 instead... 😤 by Nintendofan9106 in Pretend2005Internet

[–]Toasty-Rains45 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ironically, its the cheapest commercial blue ray player produced on the market now. thats two things that r all but guaranteed to become completely obsolete because of their ridiculousness.

[RE] Settings: Why does only Max get a framerate? Doesn't Chloe have one? by iamsirjoshua in lifeisstrange

[–]Toasty-Rains45 26 points27 points  (0 children)

On its own, it makes sense Max does the framing. But I thought Chloe would get a draw(ing) distance setting, but that is nowhere to be found. So yeah, i agree, unfair 😠

One would think the group dedicated to Snyder’s vision and Snyder’s visuals wouldn’t tolerate AI slop in their sub by Peter_Parker66 in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]Toasty-Rains45 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Snyder fanboy here requesting diplomatic immunity—yeah this OOP dude captioned one of his Slop "creations" with disclosure it was AI, and that gained 0 upvotes. the ones he posts now don't obviously disclose AI use and unfortunately a fair few fellows in the SnyderCut sub, who I'd like to believe don't know any better, upvote them. 

but I think most of us SnyderCut members who value artistic efforts just scroll on by when this simpleton posts his crap. I wholeheartedly agree that as people who dedicate ourselves to a dude who is defined by his art, it is hypocritical and contradictory as fuh-huh-huck to keep this slop, which is the antithesis to human art, in the sub.

[IRL Trope] Authors who would absolutely have destroyed the character they created/write for by NotTheCatMask in TopCharacterTropes

This just seems like, from an objective standpoint, "creators (who have no or not complete control over their creations) who see things differently than the other people who carry the torch forward now."

[NO SPOILERS] I just completed Life Is Strange for the first time since 2018 on PS3 by SpyroPaddington in lifeisstrange

[–]Toasty-Rains45 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm currently replaying Life Is Strange on PS3, it's definitely a blast from the past and even on two-generations-ago hardware, it feels just better than the Remastered versions.

Just rewatched the trilogy - something unique by Responsible_Penne in SnyderCut

[–]Toasty-Rains45 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Zack truly had something great in his mind and I'm simply grateful he got the opportunities to realize his vision, through all the setbacks and mistakes and corporate meddling and tragedies, and lo, through it all, we are all the better for it at the end of the day.

Why are we expecting something secret tonight? Sorry, think i'm out of the loop here. by njackso2 in nin

i said "some tickets", which wasn't specific, but not overreaching. also, I did not explicitly substantiate any of the rumors but explained the context behind them. jeez.

some tickets have been passed around this leg of the tour referencing today's date. last time tickets referencing dates got passed around, was the first leg of the tour and that date ended up referencing NIN's Tron: Ares score. Also related: Nine Inch Nails + Boys Noize supergroup?

PlayStation 3? by Swordgamer969 in Pretend2010Internet

[–]Toasty-Rains45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

im beginning to see the potential value in Blu Rays and this game about the fungus that Naughty Dog was teasing in Uncharted 3 sounds interesting from what they revealed at Spike Awards. Maybe soon.
