I think you responded to the wrong comment. I said nothing about the quality of the film industry's output, only that it is going to be replaced.

No, generative AI is. Why get props, lighting, actors, etc. when you can just not and say you did at a language model connected to a video generation model?

You forgot Bernie. He was a Trump favorite.

If Trump wins, pardoning these people will be his first order of business. That signals to his supporters that he wants them to do it again but in greater numbers to keep him in power indefinitely.

This article isn't in The New York Times.

No, we wouldn't be, Mr. Negative Karma Throwaway. A recession is two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth. The US had exactly two in Q1 2022 and Q2 2022 before going back to positive growth. The US had a much larger recession in Q1 and Q2 2020 before a big recovery in Q3 2020. https://www.statista.com/statistics/188185/percent-change-from-preceding-period-in-real-gdp-in-the-us/

This is already about to pass in California. https://legiscan.com/CA/bill/SB478/2023

The FTC is going to write a rule similar to what local governments have given themselves power to regulate. The article gave some examples, but it is not exhaustive.

If he was a bigot back then, is he still a bigot now?

Yes, he is. As I said, he has posted why he spent money to deny gay people the right to marry and to nullify the marriages of gay people who were already married, and he has not apologized for it since.

Which is almost never.

Then there is no problem. Just tell people to use Firefox.

That owning slaves is wrong and denying rights to gay people is wrong and treating it as a political issue where both sides are valid is nonsensical.

You don't get a promotion for blocking a buggy launch.

This isn't about what Eich used to believe. This is about a law that he helped pass and still supports. I wouldn't give my money to somebody who helped pass a law to bring back slavery and still supports it. We know that this is wrong.

Eich and the KKK can continue to advocate for the wrong side. We should continue to argue against them and not give them our support.
