There a profound truth in this:
1) the original Tron was not nominated for an Oscar for visual effects because the VFX people thought using computers was cheating
2) Oppenheimer was not nominated for an Oscar for visual effects because it didn't have any CGI in it, it was all practical effects and VFX people now think that only effects involving computers count as VFX

AI done right - that is, mixed with digital filming - is getting very close to perfect.
But so long as it has a distinctive look, it will be devalued.

@zoomyzoomm It's blue-pilled to say anything about women is "unfair" unless it involves government enforcement. There are higher standards for men in almost every way because men are superior in almost every way.

Body standards are so ridiculously unfair
How guys get attractive:

> Single digit body fat
> 1 hour cardio daily
> Washboard abs

> Tall
How girls get attractive:
> Don’t eat like a whale

@ElliotIkilei This isn't very relevant since there's every reason to believe the current war will be far more disruptive to the oil trade since it involves twice the volume of oil at stake.

Dear ZB, RNZ, NZH, Stuff, Spin and other NZ Mainstream Media.

4 years ago today, oil was $113.69 a barrel, it’s $96 a barrel now. I didn’t see the NZ MSM cutting live to gas stations around the country back then, or quizzing the government about oil reserves! Just saying

@wideawake_media This is an old joke... The reason nothing notable happened is a lot of coders fixed old code.
Whereas with things like climate and covid they are deliberately creating the bugs and have no idea what fixing even means apart from gaining more control over everyone.

This is the reason people over 40 aren't concerned about the "climate crisis". 🤣

To stop them from standing together they jumped on the first churches to openly refuse to comply.
To be clear there was actually mass disobedience in churches, in a spectrum from small churches in more rural areas just ignoring everything to larger churches in cities adopting various degrees of fake compliance. But the Government successfully scared off anyone thinking of making a *public* stand.
The situation with doctors was very similar. Most non-compliant doctors were and remain very careful to stay under the radar. Those who didn't were made an example of and a few are still fighting to retain their licenses.

@gracefool @bobmccoskrienz Wait - why would they “demonise and legally pursue…churches” when Christians didn’t “stand together”?

“To put it really bluntly, someone like myself could have gone out to the protest … we’d have lasted 48 hours, 72 at the most, before we would have been forced to resign”
Speaking about the 2022 protest in Parliament grounds, Simon O’Connor reveals the pressure and enforcement that was going on behind the scenes. Truly awful.

@dcopechatter By calling a man "her" you are encouraging his delusion.

A transgender 'comedian' says that trans activists should 'start killing kids' until they are allowed to use whatever bathroom they want.
Jordan Raskopoulos sparked major backlash after she said that trans activists should "start killing kids" to force access to preferred bathrooms.
She made the comment during a stand-up routine, in which people in the audience started laughing and clapping.
Critics say her comments are a dangerous normalization of violent rhetoric that is being used more often in Democrat circles.
Raskopoulos said:
"I think that we've experienced the last like handful of years where trans people have tried to get our acceptance by being nice, being accessible, being the kind of person that you would be comfortable with ... babysitting your kids or whatever."
"I think we should start killing kids until they let us use whatever bathroom they want."
The audience's response of cheering and applause, has fueled accusations that these types of "jokes" aren't really jokes at all, but a hostility toward traditional family values and child protection.
The 41-year-old comedian and Twitch streamer, publicly came out as transgender in 2016 and identifies as non-binary.

@Anusien Exactly. The difference between sci fi and fantasy is that in sci fi you come up with at least a half-assed explanation for why your world works the way you want it to for dramatic purposes.

A hugely underrated aspect of the Dune universe's appeal is how Frank Herbert built a world where people zip around the galaxy in spaceships but then fight each other with swords and knives. It makes everything 50 percent cooler than a world of ray guns and robots.

@hansvanharken Don't give them ideas... it's just a matter of time before someone fakes a making-of.

i recommend young gen z and alpha hunt down various behind the scenes documentaries of classic movies.
if there’s one thing AI can’t and won’t ever be able to do is have the exciting story of making a movie.

Obviously the last thing anyone against the mandates would advocate is forcing a decision on it...
I have sympathy, but he doesn't sound regretful.
I'm also one of those who lost his job. It's just a sad reflection of humanity that the further one rises, the more one has to lose and thus the more cowardly one becomes.
Yes, no-one cares now. But the fact remains that if more people had done what we did, thousands of lives and tens of billions of dollars would have been saved.
And the very people whose stand people would have cared about, did not - with very few exceptions. A few more MPs losing their jobs, or a few more doctors, would have had more impact than a hundred thousand ordinary citizens doing the same.

I have sympathy for him, because I know people who both took the vaccine to save their jobs (which directly affected their ability to have a home)
And others who took a stand, lost their job and their house and now have completely different jobs and are rebuilding lives at lower incomes.
The truth is, no one cares what both these people are doing now. As corrupt as the govt was, there’s no silver lining for either of these choices.
Personally, I was willing to die on the vaccine hill, but I can’t force that decision on anyone else, even my adult kids.

He should have gone out and been forced to resign then. We desperately needed more authority figures doing that. It was the most important source of moral authority.
If removing all rights and destroying the country economically is not the time to make a stand, what is? What is even the point of being in Parliament if you never truly stick your neck out?
The reaction of churches wasn't any better. Yes they demonized and legally pursued the few large churches who publicly stood for basic rights. But if even a small proportion of churches had stood together, the government would have folded like it did after the Parliament grounds occupation.
The occupation represented a million and a half Kiwis, and I don't know how many visited, but there were less than two thousand sleeping there and only around double that in attendance at any one time. That was all it took to put significant strain on the national police force, and after a minimum government face-saving period succeeded in ending the mandates.
Even though they would have wanted to, they couldn't have arrested tens of thousands of Christians for going to church as normal. Not only did they not have the physical capacity, politically it would have looked awful except for the fully brainwashed minority.
They were already doing as much as they could to persecute their new underclass, anything more would only have lost them support - which is what happened at Parliament.
