Remember the Cant!

Can’t sell something they can easily steal and get away with it.

LLM/AI: also GPUs.

The link between conspiracies and ads is way stronger than that. The ad industry really went into high gear following WWII when the people working on pumping out propaganda to drive their own side of the war stepped up the game by applying psychology, new media, and a bigger budget.

Those people and techniques then moved to the commercial market when the war ended and applied their trade to peddle us the crap their customers wanted to sell. Make us feel bad if we don’t buy product X and go on an endless consumption treadmill to try to feel good and adequate about ourselves.

It is despicable and even worse with ads targeting children.

I’ll add Winter Soldier as well. Nice to have a bit of the paranoid spy genre into a Marvel movie.

That’s 70% more bullet. Hard to argue with the math.

You didn’t miss much.

With a big image from the Dune universe on the title. Now Dune Total War would be interesting. It also happens to be the IP that was used for the grand father of RTS games.

Same vein of conservative nutjobs. Perfect!

With allies like these, who needs enemies?

The joke is on them, piracy was motivated by the extreme convenience of streaming to make it as convenient as ever.

The bubble is bursting.

Competition caught up with Tesla’s lead while Elon was too busy with his many side projects while somehow also micro-managing the company to death (e.g. Cybertruck).

He should have focused on scaling up manufacturing and driving the price per car down. But no, he had to chase the self-driving pipedream, launch a ridiculous pickup truck, and wreck the “genius” person he had built to replace with an alt-right one.

Yeah but the longer term doesn’t looks good.

Not if you work in one of the many, many fields of science and engineering “involved in the coverup”.

All those millions of conspirators who somehow managed to keep a huge secret across borders, time and ideologies. Even between sworn enemies humanity united on this one secret.

That would be the Top Gun movies.

Covenant was so brilliant it went with the “let’s kill off some of the protagonists offscreen” of Alien 3 again! Such a great movie to require watching a video on Youtube to understand that and just ignoring the path they were on in the previous movie.

Yeah, they could put the ads in the same stream but it would be too costly or inflexible. Ads have to be targeted to the specific market or even user so that would kill their advantage and turn them into generic TV ads.

Yeah, but controls are… unreliable.

Training tends to fall out the window when Lacy sees the flames spewing from her backpack.

Fremen setup some shields in the desert to punish the Harkonen for randomly firing lasers at the sand trying to smoke them out. Or something like that.

Hell yes, it’s hard to go wrong Trent Reznor on the soundtrack.
