Margot Robbie

So now Shadowheart is easily the most agreeable companion in the game since she approves of everything good or bad you do as long as it does not involve Shar or Lae’zel.

It is as Jeff Goldblum said in Jurassic Park: “Life finds a way, that way is plastic, and it’s not fantastic.”

Well, well, well, producing movies based on “The Sims” and “Monopoly” doesn’t seem so far-fetched now, does it?

I’m pretty sure you are thinking of somebody else.

You forgot to mention the Academy Award nomination.

Zuck has never been an original ideas guy, every product Facebook has ever made they either copied or bought from somebody else (including Facebook), what he is good at is taking someone else’s idea and squeezing every bit of money out of them via ads.

So what happens when Facebook finally runs out of other people’s ideas to copy? Facebook and Instagram are both dying a slow death, because their core audience are leaving, and Tik Tok proved to be their toughest obstacle yet. Oculus was always meant to be a side project for Facebook, until suddenly it became the centerpiece of “Meta” out of the blue. It’s no wonder then Oculus became what it is today, because putting ads and collect data from everything is the only trick Facebook knows.

This is why Sydney Sweeney isn’t on Lemmy.

You are probably thinking of another talented blonde Australian actress.

That’s esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie to you!

I think this is a fake quote that somebody made up for an Internet comedy bit, since it seems unlikely for Hollywood actress Sydney Sweeney to have such uncharacteristically strong opinion on software version control, of all things.

Because she of all people would know that there isn’t anything wrong with using git merge, and it ultimately comes down to personal preference to what you are used to.

Somehow, the Joker returned.

The Arkham Joker has been dead for more than 10 years at this point, and the decision to bring him back for yet another Arkham game is questionable.

At least someone is not involved with this Suicide Squad.

Barbie!

Lemmy doesn’t have Karma, it’s not visible on the webUI currently and will be completely removed in the next version.

Phew. For a moment I thought I might have got some of them wrong there.

In case anyone didn’t get this comic, each of these panel is a literal illustration of the name of a famous band, which are:

• Three Jackdaws
• Nano Avalanche
• Flower for Bony Jerry
• Turn Down for What?
• Airship Down
• The Stanley Parable

In general, drunk me is the last person I would ever trust with literally anything.

It’s like waking up in the morning and reading your own drunk text messages.

If they only appreciate me enough to hand me my Oscar this year…

Instagram had slowly morphed from a website to share artsy filtered cell photos to an advertisement platform, where people are turning themselves into characters living the perfectly imperfect life on social media, in an attempt to turn themselves into living advertisements, to buy and sell products, Every photo (especially the natural looking ones) is carefully shot, curated and edited by a team to imitate authenticity, no different than shooting a movie or a TV show.

So then, what happens if that role of a living advertisment can automated by machines, equally as heartless and unrealistic as these performance of perfect daily lives on Instagram? Why go through the efforts, the hours and manpower, to conduct the photoshoots and Photoshops for that one perfectly imperfect targeted post, when anyone with a modern GPU can effortlessly make thousands of machine generated pictures with way less work in the same timeframe?

Why should the role of “social media influencer” even exist then?

I’ve been unhappy about the state of social media for a long time now. But as it appears, the role of the social media influencer, as the lowest common denominator of photography, will be the first to be rendered redundant by AI automation, which brings me hope that in time, social media can be brought back to what originally was: a place for people to talk to people.

Especially when your identity on Signal is STILL only tied to a phone number, instead of a username, and there is nothing less private than actually giving out your real phone number.

Absolutely baffling.

Yay
