Magic: the Gathering.

It churns out a ton of unique settings and ideas for worlds.

Get work to implement it.

I didn’t, but it comes off as preachy for a question asked in a community called “No Stupid Questions”. A dumb question was asked about AI and the response was “actually, these are the things we need to be worried about because I’m very smart to worry about it”.

Yep. That’s a lot of words to try to seem superior to other people. Did you use ChatGPT to help you write it?

I know The Simpsons sends the grunt work to East Asia, but I thought that South Park is so simple that a US team can bang out production with the writing staff within a week.

I’m putting enough money away that I see myself retiring. At minimum, I would transition to a less stressful job about 10 years away from retirement and ride that out as I go to work less and less.

That said, I know I’ll kill myself if my health degrades too much. I haven’t decided what would happen if I run out of money.

Probably not, but it doesn’t have the issues that Reddit has regarding moderation. Facebook communities are a lot more isolated than Reddit’s are and are generally filled with older people going to the groups for more targeted reasons.

You’re probably now experiencing a thing of Facebook that makes it really valuable to others.

It has gone to shit.

In some cases like McDonald’s, the ingredients have been on par while the cooking quality has tanked.

For a lot of other places, both the cooking and ingredient quality tanked.

Taco Bell is probably one of the few major chains I still eat at because their ingredients are hard to fuck up cooking and putting it together isn’t that difficult.

I didn’t take the photos.

I know, but my response sparked further discussion so it’s cool.

I’m not a native German speaker, but I figure I should add some bit of context.

Acting on stage is far different than acting on a camera. Facial expressions are exaggerated. The body is used more to communicate emotion. Speech is louder and more exaggerated. Most stage actors have to be told to tone down their acting when switching to film or TV because you can see more acting on a screen than in person.

Hitler gives his performances as a stage performer, but we are watching his performances on film in close-up.

I find it interesting compared to the USA.

The USA has migration from richer parts of the country to select poorer parts because the lower cost of living makes up for the lower wages. There are also states that built themselves in part on the back of being a low cost of living place to retire.

Why isn’t Europe there yet?

Both programs were developed to work on high end consumer laptops, which meant being able to work on IBM PC and therefore DOS.

Those programs also were likely 2D in their initial versions in the 1980’s. They were also competing against human drafting, which was considered to be industry standard at the time.

Cost and ease of use were likely more important than other potential users of 3D software, so they went with DOS and made the transition to Windows.

Neither Autodesk nor Bentley had a good economic reason to develop in Linux. Those companies also spend a lot of money on major clients to produce tools for them, which they then force all contractors to use.

At minimum, we would need AutoCAD, Microstation, and Projectwise. We also need these exact programs as our clients require our CAD submittals to be in specific formats.

We also need Bluebeam Revu for other client coordination.

Zombie Strippers! (2008) is far better than it has any right to be, especially if they had kept in the deleted scene. The film has Jenna Jameson as a stripper at a club who turns into a sexy zombie, getting a lot of fans in the process. The other strippers as well as others tied to the strip club then have to deal with the consequences as more strippers become zombies to increase their earnings.

A Scanner Darkly (2006) is a rotoscoped movie based on a Philip K Dick novel set in future LA with a detective trying to find the supply of a dangerous new drug while being addicted to it and suffering from his addiction. The rotoscoping helps add a vibe of delirium to the movie and it is well acted including probably one of the best uses of Keanu Reeves as an actor.

Birdemic is a bad movie where everyone does a bad job making it. The only part that makes it somewhat interesting is that it includes obvious wish fulfillment by the writer-director.

Yeah, but I don’t want to flip through photos in GIMP.

This is a work problem and a lot of software we use isn’t supported on Linux.
