Everything in “Mad Max: Fury Road” was done with practical effects.

Astonishing.

@hotdogsladies That deserves a capital V or even all caps.

I’ve had an idea for a mix in my head for almost 30 years, and today I discovered the Djay app.

The Beach Boys x Eric B. and Rakim

I just had an idea for a neat thing Apple could do.

Y’know the little tabs that pop up when you select text in iOS?

It’d be cool if the device learned which actions you tend to choose in a given situation.

So, if you choose “Translate” more often than, say, “Format,” they could make that a little easier for you.

This is an idea that I just had.

@hotdogsladies I hate that Apple News not only ignores my feedback, but seems to consider 👎as positive engagement.

There's yet another open letter from the AI safety crowd. If they want more people to take them seriously, they need to get more specific

Intel’s new “Lunar Lake” chips promise big GPU and NPU upgrades, minor CPU boosts

Lunar Lake returns to a more conventional-looking design for Intel.

@arstechnica Isn't #Intel claiming 14% P core performance boost and E cores now closer to Meteor Lake P core performance? I consider that a bit better than minor, or did they really downplay it?

589: The Correct Amount of Rocks

Rumored AI features for WWDC, the state of LLMs, and a ridiculous desktop speaker setup.

@atpfm Please do more research before discussing topics like the TikTok ban. For many, you are a source of information and this is clearly a subject you aren’t deeply versed in.

@siracusa I did. You all have a very large following who look to you for informed and researched perspectives. Your influence on them shapes their beliefs and understanding.

@hotdogsladies I still love Leia for “I don't know who you are or where you came from, but from now on you'll do as I tell you, okay?”. Hoth Leia is my favorite by far.

The past week of news out of OpenAI illustrates how a company that once prized moving with caution is now dead set on winning at all costs, whatever Scarlett Johansson or anyone else thinks about it https://www.platformer.news/open-ai-scarlett-johansson-her-voice-sam-altman/

Anyone into here? I just finished Frieren (so good) - what should I watch next?

@JenMsft I just started. The first couple episodes are very chill. But it has great reviews.

Based on #YouTube comments, quite a few of us refuse to watch #Draymond on #NBAonTNT. There are so many great people they could have who aren't unapologetic violent idiots. #NBA #TNT

"Raiders of the Lost Ark" was Alfred Molina's first movie.

Not too shabby.

@hotdogsladies I loved hearing about Spider-man and how he was contracted for 3 movies, but thought it was over when they killed off his character only to be brought back 17 years later! I still can't believe they pulled that movie off so well. Loved it.

Gave myself a weird home haircut.

I was kinda thinking George Hurley and was ready to settle for Mike Patton but in the end I landed in an unanticipated third location.

Watched the first 90 minutes or so of Fallout and I’m still looking for the plot.

Which is not unlike playing the Fallout games.

@thomasfuchs Never played the game, but found the show to be bloody and over the top for shock effect... not my jam.

SloanStudio,
@SloanStudio@mastodon.social avatar

@thomasfuchs I see. Pretty much put me off watching. Similarly, there is a lot I like about Invincible but the gory killing is just not my jam. News every day is already bad. 😳

This afternoon, I was in the light bulb aisle of the hardware store, and I made an audible remark about how they don’t make light bulbs bright enough anymore.

And then I stepped merrily into an open grave.

When I posted this, I did not expect all these replies reporting similar issues. The number of people saying they occasionally/often have to restart Safari to make it work properly is flabbergasting to me. I probably restart Safari at least once a day, and that’s mildly frustrating.
