The Joel intro suggests there was a time when he could control when the movies begin and end, and I want to see his descent into madness that leads him to tears those apart to make his robot friends.

I see they've chosen to hide the true dark horse, SCUD Gundam.

Did you know we offer free shipping on store to store sales. That means you can walk into a Seattle Pink Gorilla and pick up any of these titles just like as if you were at the Las Vegas location

Didn't they close their gaming division and shutter a bunch of their existing games? I could fund a whole company on what they waste on (likely) internal feudalism.

Seems to me the lesson here is he will say anything if he's paid enough.

I do suspect he offers a significant discount to certain groups that align with his thinking.

Is there a way we can keep the "Make-a-Wish" side of making life magic for children and people going through it, without the egregious capitalistic tourism side?

Oh, we care about the treaty now? My bad. I'll just sweep this under the rug.

call me when the robot can do my dishes and laundry for me and put them all away in the correct drawers/cabinets/closets without my input. that would give me more time to write, the thing AI keeps trying to do (poorly) for me instead.

Come out to T-Mobile on Friday and find out 😆

Initial idea inspired by Mega64 and their TMNT/Critters showing.

Done with my first "edit" which I call 'Hot Point Boys 3' (AKA The Hot Fuzz Action Trilogy).

Join the boys in Hot Fuzz and go deeper watching Point Break and (most of) Bad Boys II along with them.

It's just under 6 hours. I need a trailer... Maybe pitch it to @museumofhomevideo.bsky.social

Hello from Downtown Portland North Park Blocks!

…Coders who were, in fact, working slower w/ "AI"? *Reported Thinking They Were Working Faster*.

…I mean just holy shit.

If these results hold (& I mean multiple cohorts, controls, peer-review, &c), then *all* the self-reported gains in workflow productivity/efficiency are *At Least* questionable…

…Let me say that again: Expert coders using "generative AI" demonstrated a nearly 20% *increase* in their time, vs when writing code on their own; oh, and those increases are *worse* on the tasks with which they have more familiarity.

But that's not even the crucial part; this is the crucial part:…

I need a better picture of my Crockett. A favorite of my SLDF mechs.

This week in the BattleTech Mech Overview, Perigrin stops by to look at the Crockett/Katana.

Believing in the possibility of good things. Like the Mariners winning the division today in Detroit.

It's weird as a superstitious baseball fan to actually have to plan for success, if you want to have any hope of getting tickets to a theoretical World Series.

CHATGPT: I understand where you're coming from. You worked really hard to get here, and now it's time to enjoy the fruit of your labors.

ISILDUR: So I should keep it? Elrond says I shouldn't

CHATGPT: The ring is precious. Sometimes friends don't have your best interests at heart.

ISILDUR: true

Trump broke the union contract here. That's the only reason we need to even think about this shit! Stop worrying about norms. They stopped! He's taking a significant portion of your lunch money by doing illegal shit and we're supposed to say "that's fine, too bad for us"

Employers pay fed taxes on your behalf. The money doesn't magically appear. It's yours. They send it for you. Gov can tell local companies to put fed taxes in escrow (or whatever) and make Trump come sue for it. Get creative! But try something. Don't throw your hands up and say oh well.

Seems like MechaGodzilla II is the closest it gets to a Jaeger. Built by humans, human pilot(s). It is a byproduct of time travel and a cyborg Kaiju, so not sure how that affects the family tree.
