Just like I said about contrasting Doom With Doom: Annihilation; the latter only cost 4 or 5 million, compared to the former's 60 million, and yet it (the cheap direct to video remake) was the one that was watchable

That's a good point. It's not just Boll. Even the big name directors and studios seem to be doing something that's at least money laundering adjacent EDIT: Or possibly just embezzlement?

I went and looked this up. A technology that adds bad CGI where there was no CGI before? That's diabolical!

There's definitely a lot of sketchy accounting in Hollywood. I heard somewhere that most of the Star Wars movies officially "lost money" according to the studio accountants. They lost so much money thet they decided to go ahead and make eleven of them.

It's 13 times more than the reboot, Doom: Annihilation, which actually looked good

I wouldn't say AI is reliant on that. OpenAI's obnoxious decision to make a *****y PG rated AI is reliant on that. And now I've gotta download it locally retrain it on horror movie plot summaries and the works of the Marquis de Sade if I want to use it to generate heavy metal type situations...

That's arguably a part of the reason why they're bad. Maybe 2015

In any case, the smartphone OSes have led to a decline in software quality. They seem universally less functional, less customizable, and less good at what they do than programs written for comparably fast laptops and desktop computers, and they're slowly dragging said laptops and desktops down...

Apple is basically a cult

I wouldn't kill smartphones, however I would kill smartphone operating systems. Smartphones should run whatever the main desktop operating systems were 15-20 years previously Nobody in the history of the universe has ever referred to forums as "social media" outside the context of this specific...

Agreed. We need a solution that kills ALL analytics and tracking without harming that other stuff EDIT: Also, since you mentiomed online applications. Very few applications actually have any legitimate reason to be online. On my phone I've used NetGuard to block everything except for my email...

Facebook's name is shockingly appropriate in retrospect

So basically like a prehistoric person

You can totally turn lead into gold, it just requires a giant particle accelerator and a stupidly large amount of energy
