It’s on AFI’s top 100 movies, yeah you’d better watch it. It’s great to see bogart not playing suave, suited characters ala cary Grant.

John Huston was super interesting and influential filmmaker in his own right.

I’d say given the current tech environment that book would “educate” based more on a Brave New World caste and less on ideal knowledge to raise someone up but to keep them in a certain assigned position.

You’d have to get lyrics, and then cross reference them to scripts, probably not that hard with an LLM; the key is that many of these are recognizable movie scenes and characters that add their own weight, nostalgia, and association to the original song, so putting one together well would be a bit more effort.

Well no, just the largest ones who can pay some fine or have nearly endless legal funds to discourage challenges to their practice, this bring a form of a pretend business moat. The average company won’t be able to and will get shredded.

The language is not typical for an investor suit recognizing the inherent evil in the process, it makes me think it’s for publicity or to drive a legal precedent around the inhumanity required to operate a C corp.

Thank you for sharing. I feel like this is the first fediverse exploration I’ve had the energy for since coming over in the Reddit exodus.

Can someone explain how this can/would work for a Lemmy user? They talk about federation, would that be just within this bonfire platform where anyone can put a website and social media to connect via their goals and aims and structure or could this connect to Lemmy somehow, or would that require an integration between bonfire and Lemmy? How would instances of bonfire decide whether to connect or federate with Lemmy or vice versa?

While also completely missing the boat on the potential of graphics cards and watching Nvidia and even AMD become massively more relevant in recent years.

And then, to bring us full circle to OP, Microsoft made it’s strategic acquisition of Nokia long after they had squandered enviable market share to Apple and Google 😂 https://www.theverge.com/2016/5/25/11766540/microsoft-nokia-acquisition-costs

Hey, RIM/Blackberry’s CEO went to mobile world Congress in 2010, 3 solid YEARS after the iPhone launched, was dominating and defining the smartphone world and said, “we feel touchscreen is not the future of mobile phones” and rolled out another hybrid touch/keyboard model like the 5 they already had

Blackberry was $150/share as of 2009 with the entire world in front of it. It’s now worth $3.59/share.

Yeah, that at least can be systematically identified and corrected; the bias and also inaccuracy of judgement of current human officers seems far worse and when combined with the fact non-vehicular safety is seen as a low priority or completely ignored, getting to “good” for safety of non-vehicular traffic is life and death. A few tickets that get waived, or in my city, Portland Oregon, a citizen sued to prove the cameras inaccurate where they were and won vs. engineers, is a small price to pay vs. the current state of zero enforcement and bodies littering crosswalks and cyclists mown down in “bike lanes”.

Right; I’m considering requesting cameras in my city to protect crosswalks, pedestrians and cyclists as none of the laws are currently enforced in any meaningful way. One of the most cost-reasonable, effective ways to do that would be to have automatic cameras but the lecherous vendors that want 20-30% of the cut and authoritarian state are two massive concerns I have that make me, at the cost of my own daily safety, hesitant to call this stuff out.

South Korea mandated internet explorer for all purchase checkout until relatively recently maybe the last 5 years. They had all these pieces built around it so checking out at a website you would have to prove your identity using national ID and then only IE would work.

Be very careful what you ask for.

At the rate we’re going in the US, anti science and antisocial, clubbing one’s next meal or foes and eating the meat raw for lack of other tools is not far off current trajectory.

These fuckers will do anything to invent a flying machine except the proven model that works because they knoooow it gotta be possible with large square blocks of quarried marble tied to huskies. Just need more dogs. Or maybe more marble. mush! Ok add some more marble see if that works.

Heretic!

Those dudes have radar like NASA used to and all he wants to do is talk and get attention. I imagine it was like figuring out who the quarterback was dating at a high school house party for them.
