  • The first movie was a masterpiece of being a deconstruction of superhero tropes while also being a great superhero movie. I don’t think that’s something you can do twice.

    I’m glad they went a different route for the sequel, and even though it was not as good (literally impossible to be better, I think). I liked the sequel quite a bit except for the ending set piece.

    I’m not expecting them to reach the brilliance of the first, but if they make a good movie, I’ll be happy.







  • There are no Linux gatekeepers. There are assholes everywhere, that’s the human condition. I came across these assholes and I learnt that I should take advice and consider it myself.

    If you close your brain and listen to random online people without thought, you’ll have a bad time, Linux or no Linux.

    This stereotype of people in Linux or open source as assholes is FUD spread by people who have a vested interest in spreading it.

    I’ve found people mostly very helpful and courteous.

    I think the point you’re missing is modern cameras (especially smart phone cameras) already have AI and don’t “capture” what they see accurately.

    In fact photographers going back into the earliest days of photography have been modifying photos with all the tools available to them.

    Generative AI is just the latest tool in the toolbox and still requires skill and creativity to get good results.

    This cartoon is stupid and the artist is a Nazi, but let’s not throw the baby out with the bathwater.
