The big media corporations have been pushing legislation and legal crackdowns since the 90s and it hasn’t made a dent in piracy. They’ll keep trying of course, but it still won’t work.

My biggest issue with this whole debacle is that the non-profit board hasn’t clearly explained itself to the pubic or its employees. There’s an ethics discussion that absolutely positively needs to happen and there needs to be some sort of governance in place around a myriad legal and moral issues from copyright to displacing human jobs and that can’t happen right now because we still don’t know what the fuck the board was trying to accomplish.
I’m all for responsible stewards of AI, but I don’t think this board is it. They’ve cut themselves out of any future governance ability in any event.
It depends on how well it holds up, but I like having the option to keep it longer and better support usually means higher resale value if I do decide to upgrade in two years
I’m coming from a 6 Pro and getting the 8 Pro. I’m pretty happy with what I’ve seen:
I hope there’s a “Lemmy Is Fun” app eventually, but I haven’t heard whether the original developer is interested. He’s apparently working on something with Tildes.
Yes. I have had many dreams where I’m actively reading something, I’m texting somebody, there’s a weird newspaper headline, the sign was wrong and gave me bad directions, etc.and I very clearly remember reading literal text and writing too.
I don’t know where that “you can’t read in dreams” thing came from (The Simpsons?) but it’s bullshit.
I think it still has potential but it needs more time to grow
There were lots of interesting online communities with great information and conversations before Reddit but they mostly died out as people moved on to other platforms. It’s a tale as old as time.
Lemmy’s just a platform and communities take a while to grow and there’s no guarantee they even will
I agree. I loved both, but I think B5 hit harder and is more relevant.
The effects were what they were. B5 had like half of DS9’s budget. DS9 still used mostly practical effects and models until season 6 which hold up better too, especially vs. early TV CGI.
I’ve had 2 Chevys 1 Ford & 2 Hondas. I had multiple breakdowns and expensive mechanical issues with Chevy & Ford.
The only thing I ever paid to repair on either Honda was a windshield because a rock hit it.
The force is definitely more than just the mechanics of biology. I can’t imagine a blood transfusion does anything. It shouldn’t connect you to the force any more than chopping off a Jedi’s arm and waving it around would.
And there are loads of inanimate objects strongly connected to the force: holocrons, kyber crystals, whatever materials are used to construct and paint Jedi temples, etc. Droids are too.
I think it’ll happen eventually. I was shocked when B5 got the sprucing up that it did. The tools to do even a semi-remaster are getting better and cheaper and generative AI is making it a much less labor intensive proposition.
I like trying all the different styles and learning about new ones. Neapolitan, Sicilian, Roman, New York, Chicago deep dish, Chicago tavern thin, Detroit, etc. I just had quad cities style for the first time recently.
The variations are endless!
But it had to be something that the Klingons found very upsetting. If it was opera, they’d just keep rolling with it and having a great time
I don’t think we should assume the Kelcie Mae is particularly slow either. The ship’s speed isn’t determined by how many nacelles it has.
It’s really not free. Piracy is still a bit of a chore. It’s just less of a chore than juggling a dozen streaming services, shitty and inconsistent apps and playing the whole “what major corporation’s subscription service has the rights for this show?” game.
They ought to try sucking less.
