Sergio Toppi is one artist I can never deconstruct to work out how he does it or why it works so well. He's a bloody genius, and I am forever in awe if his design sense

James Cameron on how close he came to directing 1993’s Jurassic Park & what he thinks of Steven Spielberg’s adaptation. I love this for the honesty, modesty & graciousness of Cameron’s reflections. (It’s from the latest edition of the estimable Empire magazine.)

Just imagining how much better it would be if ALL news stories about vaccine-preventable illnesses were illustrated with pictures of people with the disease, not pictures of needle injections. If you must show something that people will find scary & unpleasant, make it the disease, not the cure.
I'm so tired of measles.

I'm also tired of people using needle shots on stories like this.

Show what measles looks like.

* ANNOUNCING *

Quick note to anyone thinking of buying my books: please purchase the new Swift Press versions, NOT the relatively small number of Unbound versions still knocking about, & being sold by OOINYA. Unbound stopped paying me for my work early in 2024 and I will never see a penny for these books.

It's the same thing they did with Uber. Run at a massive loss until you're locked in then hike the prices. The problem is they're not trying to take over an established industry with guaranteed returns, they're trying to slice lumps off every industry at once. Not a good plan.
"They're trying to change our habits, because all of the projections rely on people becoming truly dependent on the technology. Whether or not it's actually a good thing for society isn't considered to be a factor."
Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?
Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

If the Venezuelan sailors were enemy combatants, then the 2nd strike is a war crime.

If the Venezuelan sailors weren’t enemy combatants, then both strikes are criminal murder.

It’s that simple.

The framing of that Telegraph article about D&D - and the framing of the responses to it, even on here - has been rubbing me the wrong way. Lots of, "No, the reason it's dying is it's not woke *enough*..." type sentiments, or talking about a gaming culture that hasn't existed for decades.

A nation that demonises people fleeing war and terror and constantly paints them as lesser humans is a nation without a heart. That’s the path we’re on and we must not blindly walk it.

At last the BBC push back against the household budget theory of public finances. High time, I have been pushing back against this for almost 15 years now.
Isn't it refreshing when someone actually does nuance and detail?
