Seems like they shouldn’t be completely shocked since this is his third time leaving the band. I don’t know anything about this guy, but from what the article says, it sounds like he has depression.

Do you have kids…?

That’s absolutely what’s going on.

A fun way to combat this would be to get every artist to add giant, throbbing dicks to everything they create in Photoshop with the hope that it creates the thirstiest, nastiest AI model out there.

Wow, it’s been so long that I had forgotten about Randy’s stroke. Its a real shame that he can’t really speak or sing anymore. His voice was amazing.

On one hand, this use of AI is really cool. There are a few moments of the audio equivalent of “uncanny valley,” but overall it’s extremely convincing. And if Randy was really as involved in the process as they make it seem, then it’s a great way to give him a “voice” again.

But then again, all this makes me so nervous about the future of the music industry. I really don’t want to live in a world where the music charts are full of posthumous singles.

The Beastles song was a cool use because AI helped clean up an existing performance. Randy Travis releasing a new single using AI to sing for him is a cool opportunity (and maybe some type of closure…?) for him and his family. But I can see the flood gates starting to open…

Fuck this.

Ah. I have most but not. So I guess it’s in one of the ones I’m missing, ha!

Wow. I don’t think I’ve ever seen this one. Maybe it didn’t make any of the collections…?

Was it also a geographical oddity?

That’s lame! I really like my local Ace.

My favorite is still Matt Smith’s parody. I remember when he posted this on the Portnoy forum. People lost their minds, haha!

Didn’t Captain Disillusion already debunk this…?

I use Plex on my PS4. It runs great!

Yikes!

Incredible song/album/band.

SO glad they haven’t actually made a Calvin & Hobbes movie (yet). There’s no way one could ever live up to the magic. This post scared me for a minute…

No.

Wish I could read the article, but I can’t seem to close the stupid pop-up (I’m using Lemmy)…

But I’m guessing it’s the real story dramatized here in “Fat Man and Little Bit.”

EDIT: Finally was able to read the article. I’m not sure why John Cusack’s character is made up in the movie, but he’s essentially a combination of the two scientists killed by the demon core.
