I'm going to be controversial on main for a moment. "Edge of Tomorrow" is by far the best of the suggested titles for that movie.

I don't care how good your YouTube video is, if you segue to talking about the sponsor mid-topic without a notification, I will stop watching.

You know when someone in cinema grins and the light reflects off their tooth with a "ting"? The weird thing *isn't* that reflected light should be completely silent. The weird thing is that we have accepted it so much that if film-makers ever omitted it, it would make the whole scene seem wrong.

Watching Maul:Shadow Lord. For a character with three lines of dialogue in Phantom Menace, this guy sure loves a good monologue.

My "I am not complicit" public statement sure is raising a lot of questions answered by the statement.

It's for sure the presence of the word "seduction" in the game description. I'd bet a lot of money that auto-tripped the adult game censor.

Asking companies to slow down in their race to invent artificial superintelligence is like asking them to slow down in their race to invent time machines. Predicting the most likely next word in a sentence is a longass way away from birthing Brainiac.

Simply sit down with a pen and paper and work out exactly what Britain would look like today without the Norman conquest (should take about 5-10 minutes) then compare it to how it is.

"Your Honour, be could not have been sucked out the window, as the window in question was at that point several hundred feet away and accelerating towards the Adriatic. He may have been sucked out the hole where the window had been, but as he has not asserted this, we move to dismiss."

Their defence: "2020, zero passengers sucked out a window. 2021, zero passengers sucked out a window. 2022, zero passengers sucked out a window. 2023, zero passengers sucked out a window. 2024, zero passengers sucked out a window..."

I think they're throwing us the slop machines because they all need to make a billion dollars a month to stay afloat and that's the only part of AI that fifty million end-users *might* pay 20 bucks for.

Boosting 1-star reviews never ends well. People then start writing them just to try and go viral.

You know that scene in The Wire where they just say "fuck" with no other dialogue? Someone should write a comic where it's just "bamf" and "snikt" and "thwip" and so on.

If Game of Thrones has thought us anything, it's how to deal with sociopathic narcissists who live in castles alongside rivers named the Blackwater.

I remember the "Bruce Wayne: Murderer/Fugitive" arcs from a few years back. They were collected into TPBs and I bought them. Turns out the killer was some character acting out a grudge from some comic years before, who hadn't been mentioned in any of the TPBs before the reveal.

For fun, we put the classic story "Don't invent the Torment Nexus" into a Torment Nexus. The results are fascinating.

I misread the first line as, "We're no strangers to love." Which isn't Yeats, but is certainly poetry.

If Doctor Strange practiced medicine the same way he practiced magic in No Way Home: Peter: I have a stomach ache. Strange: Lie on the table. Strange (as he's cutting): I'm going to remove your liver.
