    Trailer SUPERMAN Final

    Oof, that leaked review is pretty rough. It basically sums the film up as overstuffed and superficial eye candy. Lets hope it’s an outlier.

    Trailer SUPERMAN Final

    I think this one post just changed my life in a meaningful way. I’m not even joking.

    Who is your favorite James Bond?

    See, if they’d cast her as Bond she’d be top of my list! Magnificent actor!

    D&D General D&D Beyond's Users Online Over Last Year

    Except it’s not clear that it is. Thus the discussion. There are so many variables and missing information. So folks are wondering what to make of it. Sans more context, all I feel comfortable saying is that there are some numbers.

    AN AI band has 900,000 monthly listeners

    Yes, and also it was being made by actual human beings. This is apples and oranges.

    Who is your favorite James Bond?

    I always feel like folks who vote Lazenby are just taking the p*ss.

    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    Not so sure about that, though.

    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    An anecdote: the International Baccalaureate diploma is very rigorous - it is basically modeled on British A-levels, and students earn univeristy transfer credit if they earn high enough marks in a subject. Although some of the assessment is done internally, all of it is moderated by IB, and...

    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    So, this is hyperbolic yet also gets at the heart of the roles we use for AI. Because it really does raise the question "what is the point of you?" in a lot of situations. I have unfortunately become something of an expert in this as an IB Diploma teacher. Cheating using AI is a huge and...

    I also wonder if becoming much less visibly associated with Critical Role has impacted DDB usage. I specifically started using it because of CR.

    D&D General D&D Beyond's Users Online Over Last Year

    Hmmm...that makes it a bit more useful, but I don't think it tells us much in isolation. I would like to see paid subscriptions year over year, as well as the distribution between app users and online users (for example, when we play I am the only person not using the app). My vibe amongst the...

    D&D General My experience with paid D&D tools after 3+ years as a DM/Player

    I'm a bit embarrassed by how heavily I rely on various Google tools (Meet, Docs, Sheets, NotebookLM), but we use it so much for work (teacher; Google Classroom is foundational) that it is just automatic and simple/lazy for me, even though some of these bespoke tools are probably much better. So...

    D&D General D&D Beyond's Users Online Over Last Year

    Could you unpack some of that in more detail? 1. Where do you find this number? 2. What is the difference between "forum statistics" and "site statistics"? At the moment, I am having trouble understanding what this graph is suggesting. I need more context. For instance, if it's measuring forum...

    Judge decides case based on AI-hallucinated case law

    But did the court reach the wrong conclusion?

    Smallville - Love the show, but Clark is so irritating at times! [Spoiler]

    No, that's definitely a comment on current US politics. Not that I disagree.

    The Fantastic Four: First Steps - Official Teaser Trailer (2025)

    It would be so annoying sitting next to someone with that ridiculous popcorn bucket. Movie popcorn is generally absurd, at least at mainstream cinema. And I like popcorn! Love it, in fact, esepcially when coated in just the right amound amount (not so that it goes mushy) of fresh, melted butter...

    AN AI band has 900,000 monthly listeners

    This is so completely apples and oranges that I have no idea what point you are making. I'm going to hazard a guess that not a single person thought that the cartoon avatars for Gorillaz were the actual musicians.

    D&D General Optimistic Thoughts on Optimizing

    We kinda had this happen in a recent game. A new player, super good friend, who was great fun at roleplaying. But once combat started, she just wanted her druid to wildshape into useless forms, like a slug, for RP reasons. Which was frustrating for the other players as it was a tough battle and...

    D&D's New Solo Player Guideline Explained

    I kinda wanna take one of these and try it as a solo play with an AI running it. But I’m not sure of the ethics of purchasing it but then running it through an LLM. Maybe if I use NotebookLM to ensure it remains proprietary.

    D&D 5E (2024) Solasta 2 and the 1/2 elf

    And? You are aware that every group has final say on how they want to play D&D, yes? If you wanna play as a treant and your group is good with it, then bless. And if you want to use 2014 half-elves, or your own home brew half-elves, then bless. There is absolutely nothing stopping you.
