A true blow for film fans. Lynch was a visionary that really didn’t compromise. Pushed the medium forward. A true artist. People often complain about his approach to storytelling in films but after seeing one of his films they are rarely forgotten or thought of as “just another movie”.

Toto and Eno!

Does anyone know if he was legally allowed gun(s) while on probation and after you know he was convicted of used guns to endange people based on a internet conspiracy?

I’m going to say because it’s short, stupid catchy. Sometimes your brain goes to random places and then logic sets in. Ignoring typical reason is what makes absurdist comedy work. We obviously have a character playing it straight trying to figure it out getting more and more upset by the illogical which makes the bit work. The music is silly and not eerie at all and then getting scared freeze frame when they continue to point out the character is not scary is the kicker and sort of makes it worth it. This was probably just a random skit they threw in last minute and thought, just have fun. A lot of hit songs are simple, obvious, stupid and catchy. Rick James thought Superfreak was a throw away song too dumb to be on the album and it’s his most recognized song.

Yah. Pearl Jam spent years in limbo because they thought everyone would join the fight. But no big name artists ever did because no one wanted to rock the boat. During COVID ticketmaster / clear channel/liveNation/ iHeartRadio whatever have continued to consolidate. They own the tickets they own the resell websites they own most of the big venues they can demand merch sales at the venue. If you refuse they can remove you from playing their venues.

At this point it would take 10+ huge artists to final kill this beast. We are talking Taylor Swift / Beyonce big that actually have complete creative control. I don’t even think most top artists have that. They would have to organize everything and they would probably lose union contracts for stage craft and audio, lights, transportation. Basically they would have to start their own ticket & touring companys that outdoor fields and sports areas? and would have to stick it out for years and convince a good majority to stop buying tickets from any place using Ticketmaster.

It’s sad to hear but I think we all need more news stories of people dying trying to take photos in nature. While hiking the past 10 years I’m surprised how many people at the top of cliffs are just gathering for selfies. Idk why they don’t realize that not going to the absolute edge maybe 5-6 feet away is the exact same photo and tripping backwards wouldn’t immediately kill them.

What about rclone? I’ve found it to be amazing for cloning or copying.

Anyone use this or something similar for the shield? Looking to eliminate the ads.

Netflix finally trying to make smart business decision? Shocked. I know it’s not optimal but couldn’t someone use a browser and make it full screen?

I didn’t know. I’ll have a look. thanks for sharing.

I don’t see an official statement but it would be really amazing for a company that is asking everyone to follow the new rules to ignore the well established laws at the same time. They can have whatever opinions they want but these places are recognized as such.

“Some organizations must also file a request with the Internal Revenue Service to gain status as a tax-exempt non-profit charitable organization under section 501©(3) of the US tax code.”

“Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc is a nonprofit organization It is a tax-exempt corporation under Internal Revenue Code section 501©(3)”

I find these ai compositions to be both fascinating and frustrating. It sort of exposes our primal ideas of pleasing sounds and how unoriginal a lot of pop music actually is. At the same I’d like to hear something that I personally think is better and more original than an actual artist that would make me want to buy an album or song. Could that ever happen? I don’t know. So far nothing I’ve heard has come even remotely close without lots of intervention from an actual artist.

I do hate the idea all this generative music would be used in commercials, etc. To cut corners instead of actually paying people.

Anything specific advice you would give to others to prevent corruption? Or keep drives healthy?

So let’s say the API sever for the authentication that the browser has not been altered goes down. Does that mean that all sites that require the browser are unreachable?
