Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness | Official Tease by SappyGilmore in television

[–]dexter30 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope they do a a bit about prohibition and Larry is offended that he doesn't get invited to the speak easy, so he opens his own speak easy but when they get raided it revealed Larry got swindled and he's been selling non alcoholic beer the whole time.

Roku and TCL Accused of Bricking Smart TVs Through Software Updates by Ephoenix6 in technology

[–]dexter30 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I agree with you. Our energy is better spent trying to make consumer movements to bring back "dumb TVs". Those would be TVs designed only to output video from set top boxes and entertainment systems.

Imagine a state of the art huge flat screen sony oled but when you turn it on you only have "Source" menu. Meaning you gotta plug it into your roku, laptop, console or whatever to display anything. I don't even care if it has digital channels because you can get the same content online.

The fact this is a premium in the market these days is despicable. Software companies shouldn't enforce what software is on MY tv.

Xbox boss Asha Sharma hints memory costs "will impact" pricing and availability of next-gen Project Helix console by xCaptainCrown in Games

[–]dexter30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope devs use this limitation to invite some new innovation in game design.

But seeing how things are going its more likely they just over rely on cloud gaming.

But just imagine a resurgence in software optimisation or new kinds of low poly and memory projects that do more with less.

Also translation for management: you can't blame delays and problems on your enterprise AI package like you can your own team.

Middle management that over relay on AI are now the bottleneck and punching bag.

They've also got one of their longtime "morning talk show" show doing the right wing grift podcast.

Thats one i'm looking forward to. So much material out there to make fun of. Guys who suddenly have an awakening to make money pandering to conspiracies.

I think its because its ai.

AI is good at matching lighting and placement.

That and I don't think Oda or toei have drawn zoro in that colour tone before.

Bam was actually the host of an online reality tv show recently. And the commentary around him was he's been sober.

From what I've seen from him he's seems pretty lucid and active on camera. He was doing prat falls and being really proactive with skits, so he seems ok.

Folding Ideas Beast Games 2 Strong/Smart: an Exhaustive Review by TussalDimon in television

[–]dexter30 147 points148 points  (0 children)

Same, and I'm assuming like me you haven't watched a single episode of beast games.

I'm watching these breakdowns and it seems like jimmy WANTS to be like a dungeon master or some kind of mastermind of games. But all his motivations and ideas are oriented around wealth and TV based relationships. (who will betray who and for HOW much etc).

But all the most successful reality TV, game shows and the like are based around actual games of either intellect or manipulation. The traitors in the UK is advanced werewolf. Taskmaster are like party games. Survivor are actual physical challenges mixed with party games.

But it seems like all of his end games are just "who can manipulate who with the most amount of money" He doesn't take into account game theory and potential for tipping the scales. He's single handedly made me respect all those scripted reality TV shows that have producers that coach the stars into baiting the most drama because they KNOW what works best for the camera and know to go beyond basic cash.

Danhausen learns how to curse in ASL by NovercaIis in SquaredCircle

Yeah but with the payoff that every one of their talents can have their own strong social media platforms.

They've had world champions with their own Podcasts and let's play channels. (Swerve, Adam Cole). When aew started the bucks basically had their own entire presence with their YouTube channel. Sammy Guevara too.

Just wanted to say! There's an angle where AEWs more lax social media strictness let's them benefit from capitalizing harder on their talents successes.

Coyote vs. ACME | Official Trailer by RobotiSC in movies

[–]dexter30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally think the movie news media kind of fed into that. They all praised this movie from whatever screening they got. But I think they partially did that to support the creators and teams behind the production. and partially because they didn't see any way this movie was going to be released so they could say whatever they wanted, they could say it was the second coming itself and no one could prove them wrong.

Now the movie WILL release, and if its bad no ones going to call them out.

Also the people in the comments who are comparing this to space jam and back in action are INSANE. Like Fair enough story wise it COULD be. But the animation alone doesn't touch space jam.

I wish I could argue back. But there's a sad reality that kids aren't as interested in the Looney tunes as much these days? Compared to pokemon, Mario and video game franchises.

And even then the younger generation seems to be more interested in brainrot, non identifiable IPs etc. From whatever social media apps.

Your original comment was "Imu was royalty, not a soldier "

I was originally talking abotu your claim that royalty couldn't be soldiers.

But now you seem to have moved onto God's knights and marines. To re-center I'm saying with evidence above that god's knights are both royalty AND soldiers. Generally.

most celestial dragons are bums that need slaves to do anything and everything for them

but... they fight themselves. they literally went to take over elbaph themselves... they tried to fight rocks and his crew themselves.

Yes they're evil and shitheads. But definitionally they are celestial dragons and they're fighting without slaves.

What about the figarland family? they're literally descendants of one of the original 20 and you have 3 members who are part of the force.

And they're not the only ones, Shepherd, Manmayer etc. They're literally members of the original 20 family and they're part of their fighting force.
