Ohhhh I get it, Pixar's Hoppers isn't Avatar with beavers, it's Dune with beavers.
But actually I'm really excited for this movie; it looks so much more chaotic than their usual fare!
I just do not have the time to write anything long-form about this but the ongoing Mozilla AI debacle is really indicative of a very, very troubling aspect of the broader AI debacle, which is that a strong majority of even the *actually* well-intentioned, smart leaders in tech have had their brains fully cooked by these heuristics machines
Just read an article detailing how Microsoft executives are confused and upset that people don't appreciate their AI features and don't like people giving them shit about them on Twitter. "How are people not impressed with this stuff?"
Fellas, have you used the internet lately? It's fucked. Have you used Windows? Fucked. It's shit. People are sick of it being shit, because it didn't used to be as shit as this. You've gone and fucked everything, that's why people aren't happy with you.

AI-generated "evidence" is infecting the legal system. Until judges come down HARD on the the lawyers doing this stuff -- and until some of the lawyers are disbarred -- these sleazebags will poison the system completely.
My needle felted Red Panda! When they're threatened, they rise up and try to look scary. Yep. super scary!

My posts can be very thought provoking. For example, you might read something of mine and find yourself thinking "this guy is a moron".
doing the corny "sample of a voicemail someone left me" in every song on an album but the voicemail is someone being like "alex if you're still out can you pick up five eggs at the shop, thanks", and the followup voicemails on each song become successively more urgent "looking more like six eggs now" "please text re: eggs"
Hey, my first post here on Mastodon! Allow me to introduce myself! I am a hobbyist LEGO stop motion animator and aspiring storyteller! I like good stories focused on original concept as well as great stories around already established franchises (Sonic, etc.).
I hope to gain some traction on this new platform, and some new attention and feedback on my work as a whole!

Today I am stepping down from my role as the CEO of #Mastodon. Though this has been in the works for a while, I can't say I've fully processed how I feel about it. There is a bittersweet part to it, and I think I will miss it, but it also felt necessary. It feels like a goodbye, but it isn't—I intend to stay on and continue to advise the new leadership and contribute, because Mastodon—and the fediverse—is one of the very few beacons of hope for a better web.

So there was this really great Youtube video that came out over the weekend about why a lot of modern movies just don't feel "real" anymore and generally kind of look terrible.
Anyhow in other news I just saw the trailer for the live action Moana remake.
