The New Coffee Room

Wow!!!!

The leaps and bounds made by AI video in the last 12-24 months is insane. We might already be there, but soon enough it will be impossible to tell what is real. Scary future!

Agreed. Symbolic at best and not an attractive symbol.

The meme is the Mayor of Amityville, in the movie 'Jaws', telling the townspeople that the beach is safe, despite the huge predator shark. It's comparing that to Trump saying 'we obliterated their nuclear program' when there's some doubt that that actually happened.

I have found AI invaluable for deciphering various error messages and their resolutions, and figuring out how to do technical things I may not have done in the past. Manuals typically tell you everything but what you need to know.

It's all optics, no substance.

I have read about this a bit. Another case of money not being able to buy class.

A quote from a progressive white female lawyer on a Trump hating podcast yesterday, went something like "I loved Justice Jackson's dissent so much. She was just Black Girling all over that court."

Moron this later.

LOL

So there is such a thing as "city mouse" vs. "country mouse."

@Doctor-Phibes said in BBC News now wants $8.99 a month for subscription.: I may end up paying, particularly if they start charging for BBC sounds, which makes my drive to work bearable. I am guessing that you are not talking about this website? 555 Many years ago, I came across this and bookmarked. Quite interesting with a lot of unusual and different sound effects. https://sound-effects.bbcrewind.co.uk for example Aircraft: Trident - Exterior. Taxi up & past.

Listening to his Schubert Impromptus. Sublime.
