Drone Corps would need benefits and awards to move up the ranks. Being able to sit in a chair that smells of everyone's farts is not one.

Also, we have space force and air force. Very remote work with benefits anyway.

I think so. They definitely have some Disney people working for them now, and the rainbow flag at their offices. However, they have worked to keep ips as accurate as possible.

Yeah, it's not being helped by bad movies.

I saw that one, and then stopped. Really sad because the animation style was fun.

I believe we should and will happily work with anyone willing to release these noble creatures into the wild. Preferably near LA.

My family has a saying that goes Start at Shit and Build Up. It works all the time and drives people nuts

It's a good move for Netflix because Max is the channel I watch the most. If they kept the Scooby Doo shows, I would have watched more.

Germany is proudly gray. No opinions that will get us in trouble and everything works on time and on budget.

Seattle wonders why San francisco keeps moving into their proudly gray area.

Why is the Klingon smiling?

Enough of the take over of the world by San Francisco. Let people scowl you weirdos.

Yeah, Mums been in the basement for years along with her siblings. They keep talking about how big and important they were back in the day, and then get scammed by Somali online emails and stuff.

Canada has been declaring itself the good son because he never fully moved out. Australia is trying to prove that his twin New Zealand is the cuck. South Africa got a new wife and nobodies really seen him for years. He keeps sending cards that he's ok, but non of them make any sense.

It won't be a big bag of money, it will be a ham sandwich.

I think the Saudis and Chinese will be bought out by Open AI or something.

At one point it was the other way around. Not today I guess. The mighty truly have fallen.

At which point the only company left will be, what, Disney Amazon?

I'm wondering about all the Scooby Doo that was everywhere and suddenly no where. Also, Netflix has DC, which means it will go even further woke.

I said it was going to Universal, and was wrong. I apologize for that.

The cost is pretty high for that. My favorite thing at the IAAPA expo. Tons of fun, but not a lot of people with the area or money for it.

It's another tech bubble. Everyone is investing in things that have little to do with making it work. I remember the dot com bubble right before 9/11. Investors spent hundreds of millions on stupid things like the name of the website. They didn't actually think things through on how to actually give the product over. Most of the promises form that era are now done by Google and Amazon from slowly growing, not the rapid growth expected.

Another one is VR. It's viable, but not in home. Maybe, and this is a very slight maybe, it can be used as a computer monitor. But the reality is that VR needs a lot of room and computing power to do stuff. Meta came closest, but even it didn't survive. However, the market for our of home use is still in power. People make AR and VR stuff all the time and it makes money. I played some great racing games and shooters at IAAPA, along with experiences by groups like Steamroller or L3D. The in home use needs too much space and money to really work. Even my kids are playing VR games from a computer monitor instead.

AI has some definite uses, but the people investing in it want a specific thing. It's going hardcore right now where anything cool is only cool for 2-3 days before another cool thing overtakes it. Lots of investment in creating the cool thing, but no real use for it. My bet is that Stability AI, MidJourney, and probably ChatGPT are going to survive. Chatgpt is the first to make the conversational model that works, while their image creation is great for small things. MidJourney has no public investment and has been growing based on users instead. Stability AI has gone through the roughest time, but most video models and others are based on it. I have no idea where 3D or Gaussian splats are going to go, and the companies tend to be universities.

The really big factor is what can be created. That means creators need to know what they are doing, and how to use a product. Right now, people are making characters with MidJourney, putting them in situations with Gemini Nano Banana Pro, and animating them with Grok. Meanwhile Sora is making a tiktok like app with crazy videos.

When I do link dumps, the second largest is always AI because so much happens at the same time.

Stop insulting Kabuki like that. We got Ganbare Goemon and Momotaro from it.
