Looks like we might be discussing the same movies. I checked out the link you included, and he did work at Shaw Studios and was apparently known to splice in footage not filmed by his crew. Nice

I was listening to Knowledge Fight which isn't a regular listen for me, and it sounds to me like that Alex Jones dude is just shit faced at all times.

Could be any kind of performer be it comedian, podcaster, actor, etc.

I think you're talking about those like bootleg ones that were hastily assembled pieces of shit from stolen Run Run Shaw films, etc

Right?

People like to rag on AI here because it grants them coolness points and because they're threatened that it will literally do a better job, faster and cheaper than they can. If the so called "tech gurus" around here would think more about the greater good (as in helping to train AI instead of always criticizing it) we'd have a much better society.

I really feel that would sell like hot cakes.

But since nicotine and caffeine are related molecules and are similar neurostimulants, we could just smoke tobacco hey

There's a ton of stuff that applies to the female demographic - all kinds of stupid words with LED lights on them, idiotic fake wooden plank signs that say wine o'clock, horrible "inspirational" messages in that goofy curly font, something that you'd normally sell to a guy except they hot glued a pink pom pom on it.

You're not entirely wrong but my point is actually that yes it is literally and directly true that it is more important to women than men. I say this from a lifetime of lived experience as a non binary person, I've spent my life in both groups.

It is so bad, when I'm with groups of women I often think to myself, is the only thing these people think about..... men? (edit: This also applies to bi and lesbian women... all they talk about is every chick they've fucked, how they were wronged by their partner, who they'd like to fuck, and the dynamics of their relationships and social drama)

 

While re-listening to Bitches Brew tonight it occurred to me, there's never been anything that sounds quite like it since, and there never will be again.

What are your favorite unicorn albums?

 

Come on, you know what I'm saying.

 

“Because 3D printing can produce complex geometries, save material, and enable unique designs, we see this printable alloy as something that could also be used in advanced vacuum pumps, high-end automobiles, and cooling devices for data centers,” adds John Hart, the Class of 1922 Professor and head of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at MIT.

Here's the paper published in The Journal of Advanced Materials

 

A neat video from the 1930's demonstrating animation with synthetically-generated music

The synthetic sounds are generated by variophone, an optical synthesizer that used sound waves cut onto rotating cardboard disks.

Pioneering work in graphic sound was underway in 1926

 

This is our work cat, Fancy Pants

 

He was an amusing sales guy that got into the TV advertising game early in the 50's. He found great success from barraging radio and TV with ads, especially late night TV, and half-ass daytime radio ads that were so bad they were good

With a disarming and quirky personality, he wore an inappropriate outfit and tall cowboy hat. He'd refer to the furniture store as the corral, call the viewers partner and always end with his catch-phrase 843 Main Street - C'Mon Down!. None of the cowboy presentation made sense given our city's culture, but perhaps it help him stand out!

His gag was constantly blaming his dopey No. 1 Son for leaving the furniture-making machine on overnight hence the blow-out sale (You'd think after taking so many losses he'd install an timer kill switch on the machine or get his son help, but I digress)

He was clearly not concerned about quality in the radio ads in particular, and you could just tell most were first-take probably to shave every cent off ad costs. He often was too leisurely and charming in the first 15 seconds, then realizing he's running out of time spoke faster and faster to get out the sales points, until he has but a second left to belt out his closing catch phrase, good fun

His philosophy in business was "give the customer more than they expect" which I heard him explain on a local AM radio time-filler interview one random weekend, but that really stuck with me and truly served me well in my life!

Mr Hill passed away many years ago but his memory is still strong here. The original building at 843 Main Street is gone due to arson but few will forget the impact this humble furniture salesman had in our city's culture

I know nothing about this but apparently most people are fully abreast of the situation
