Nehmt euch für das neue Jahr vor #amazon #prime zu kündigen. #Disney auch. Vernetzt euch, helft euch gegenseitig #linux aufzusetzen und #microsoft aus den Wohnungen zu verbannen. Beschafft euch #US Medien/Filme aus alternativen Quellen und tauscht. Trinkt keine Zuckerpampe von Coca Cola. Nutzt #KI nur da wo ihr sie Tracker- und Kostenfrei nutzen könnt und macht das zum Verlustmodell. Zerstört den #US Aussenhandel wo ihr könnt, das ist für alle positiv, auch für #US Bürger.

I read comics since the late 70s, and stopped in the mid 90s when big media conglomerates got involved. The people at the top of a comic publisher , the ones who genuinely gave a shit, were replaced by dutiful corporate stewards who lived by one evangel: Line must go up. So these geniuses had a bright idea: Variant covers. The same story, but with 5 or 6 variant covers. Nothing else special. It was the same story, no "extras", just a different chromatic 3D cover. Months later, these variants would be found in 50 cent clearance boxes. Nobody wanted them.

Flash forward to the dawn of the MCU. Many of us long time Marvel fans had dreamed of films being made of our favorite heroes and villains. In 2008, Iron Man kicked everything off, and it was a ride from there. (Author's note: I'm not going into the whole bloody timeline and all the phases, because my ADHD took one look at that wiki page and went "Aw hell naw!") All of this led up to Avengers Infinity War and End Game. This, in my opinion, was the bow. The perfect end for an amazing journey.

I'm feeling Avengers: Doomsday is a variant cover. But, hey, maybe I'm just jaded.

How GenAI is taking true fans activity – and creativity – to the next level

Walled Culture has written a number of times about the true fans approach – the idea that creators can be supported directly and effectively by the people who love their work. As Walled Culture the book explains (available as a free ebook), one of the earliest and best expositions of the concept came from Kevin Kelly, former Executive Editor at Wired magazine, in an essay he wrote originally […]

In a watershed moment for Hollywood and generative artificial intelligence, Disney said on Thursday that it would buy a $1 billion stake in OpenAI and bring its characters to Sora, the A.I. company’s short-form video platform.

Gen AI is slowly producing the Library of Babel -- in which all books exist, but it is mostly an overwhelming plethora of nonsensical books, so that finding the useful becomes hopeless due to lack of searchability. #NoAI



Just visited the nearby university library and was fascinated to learn that

students are bombarding it with requests for references that do not

exist--the product of ChatGPT and its ilk. "It's a goddam nuisance," the

librarian said. "They don't believe it's all made up."

"Last week, a poll conducted for Global EV Alliance, made up of electric vehicle driver associations around the world, found that 52% of Americans would avoid buying a Tesla for political reasons."

Then she notes the effectiveness of the campaign to cancel subscriptions with Disney+ and Hulu when Jimmy Kimmel was suspended.

She quotes Joy-Ann Reid in an Instagram video:

Asked about the #EpsteinFiles, #Trump attacks #reporter

The same reporter who asked earlier about #Khashoggi asked Trump why he is not releasing the #Epstein files now, rather than waiting for #Congress to vote.

Trump responded: "It's not the question that I mind. It's your attitude. I think you are a terrible reporter. It's the way you ask these questions."

He added "You're a terrible person & terrible reporter."

He added that he thinks #ABC's license should be taken away.

You know #BrendanCarr is at the ready

#Trump said that broadcasting licenses used by affiliates of #Disney's #ABC should be "taken away" after he didn’t like a question posed by an #ABCNews reporter for the network in the Oval Office.

Trump made the comment after a reporter for ABC News asked Trump about the Jeffrey #Epstein political scandal.

Among the old British Celts, a newborn prince would often be given to another family to raise until he became an adult. In some early King Arthur stories, Arthur is raised by the fairies. In later stories, he's instead raised by Sir Ector, the father of Kay (Arthur's best friend).
