Duncan Jones somehow hasn’t made a movie in eight years. He’s back with ROGUE TROOPER, an independent animated film that just premiered at TIFF. I asked him why he’s been gone for eight years, why it’s difficult to get a “Duncan Jones movie” made, and why he refuses to use AI

Duncan Jones on Why It’s ‘Harder Than Ever’ to Make His Kind of Movies (and Why He Refused to Use AI for His Newest One)
It took almost a decade for the "Moon" filmmaker to get his animated adaptation of "Rogue Trooper" off the ground. One shortcut he won't take? AI.

Captain Haddock looking very frazzled, saying, “What a week, huh?”
Tintin leans into the frame and says, “Captain, it’s Wednesday.”
Snowy aka Milou is very excited about the drink he has found.

El capitán Haddock, sentado a una mesa y con aspecto de estar agotado, dice: "¡Menuda semana, ¿eh?".
Tintín, a su derecha, le dice: "Capitán, es miércoles".
A la izquierda, Milú mira muy contento la bebida que está en la mesa.

"What was once a constitutional nice-to-have, has become an essential safeguard in the face of real danger to democracy." 💯 @pollytoynbee.bsky.social is right. Electoral reform can't wait any longer. We're calling on Andy Burnham to act and announce a National Commission within his first 100 days.

I think a lot of ppl underestimate how much their dollar actually helps artists, writers, journalists etc. And I think a lot of people overestimate how following translates to income. I don't have a 1$ tier so it is hard to convert, but about 1% of my following is actual subscribers.

Some things Norway has that we're a little jealous of: ✅ A fair, proportional voting system ✅ 57% trust in their government ✅ Over 75% turnout in general elections ✅ The same Prime Minister since 2021 (while we're about to get our fifth...) ✅ Erling Haaland

Whoever replaces Keir Starmer at 10 Downing Street needs to hear the message loud and clear: The UK's democracy is in crisis. A fair, proportional voting system isn't a "nice to have". It's a priority and we need it now.

It will never stop being funny to me that the street fighter subreddit has a much better, well reasoned ai policy vis a vis literally all universities.
Hi, thanks for posting! We do appreciate you thinking of us even though we have to moderate.

Our stance on all AI generated content (Images, Video, Voiceovers, and whatever else LLM based AI gets up to in the future):

At best, they are approximations of street fighter characters as the AI has no clue what it is trying to create. Because of this, there is no street fighter content so they are not allowed. (rule 1)

Also, they aren't allowed per our source rule. As AI sources cannot be tracked, we must assume that they use uncredited sources in the learning data. (rule 5)

Finally, AI images, video, text, and voiceovers are barely any different than posting a screenshot of a google search. The level of effort is so low that we consider it spam (rule 3).

Because of these reasons, AI art and other AI content is not allowed.

If you would like to contact the moderators about this removal, you can do so here.

Two-player #BBCMicro Elite will be a deep-space dogfight game The rest of Elite wouldn’t be that exciting with two players, so I’m sticking to the core combat experience When you fire it up, you can choose what kind of contest you want Here's the all-new config screen 🚀 Game on! #retrocomputing

21 May 1971, Marvin Gaye released his album 'What's Going On'. The concept album told the story of a Vietnam veteran returning to the country he had been fighting for, and seeing only the hatred, suffering and injustice. It is regarded as 1 of the greatest albums of the 20th century. #WhatsGoingOn
