If suicide wasn't taboo, you think everybody would just be itching to kill themselves? I'm sure glad I don't have your worldview, must be pretty grim.

Titanic received Academy Awards for: Best Picture, Best Director, Cinematography, Art Direction, Costume, Visual Effects, Sound, Sound Effects Editing, Film Editing, Original Dramatic Score, and Original Song.

Tied with Ben-Hur and Return of the King for the most awards given to a single movie... It is also the 3rd highest grossing movie of all-time adjusted for inflation

Universally approved by critics, the media and viewers as a great movie.... but you don't like the love story, so it must be a horrible film.

• Schindler's List
• Titanic
• Ben-Hur
• Spartacus
• Gone with the Wind
• The Matrix
• The Sound of Music
• Oppenheimer
• Dances with Wolves
• JFK

All these movies are over 100 minutes long and all of them tell a pretty good story.

Many gamers are moving back to PC's... with a steam deck for mobile gaming... IMO the console market is dying. I don't expect another real console to be released. I think the next "console" will just be a connector to game pass or some other kind of online streaming.

Yeah, I realized this after I posted it... jumped to conclusions before reading the article in typical /. fashion. :P

Well that's it for trusting Wikipedia for information. I already knew to be skeptical of Wikipedia edits, but going forward Wikipedia will be edited by AI bots with little to no human intervention. It will just be an entire shit show of hallucinations or bias opinions based on whatever training data the AI is fed.

AI is going to send us back to the stone age. AI will create the next great war as the working population deals with massive job and income loss. In 20 years we will have a generation who are functionally illiterate and won't know a shred of history because nobody will trust any information as factual. Technology will be lost due to nobody being qualified to manage it. AI is going to make a society of idiots.

Are you new here? This is how many websites have authenticated over the last couple years. I'm with you, it's bullshit... welcome to the new internet...where enshitification is of utmost importance!

They can pry my RTX 5070 from my cold dead hands....

Fuck dummy terminals. This idea has been pushed by corporate elites for decades...

That Sony OLED was released in 2007, not 2004... sorry, not like it was 20 years ago or anything.

Sony XEL-1

I remember back in 2004, the Sony Store had a "demo" OLED screen that was about 10 inches (could have been slightly smaller or bigger, can't remember) and it was available for purchase for something like $25 000 (Canadian $).

Around this time I bought a Sony 16:9 32" 1080i CRT.... looked incredible... weighted about 150 pounds. Got it for about $1000. At the time I was the only one I knew who had a HD TV... all sporting events were watched at my place! I only got rid of the grey beast because I didn't want to move it anymore (I was in my early 20's and moved frequently) and LCD's had dropped significantly, by 2009 I had replaced it as my main TV for a Samsung 46" 1080p LCD.

Is this a problem with the AI or with morally corrupt humans who spent hours to break the system for personal gain? It seems to me that the AI would have worked if humans just played along instead of trying to convince the AI that it was really in Communist Russia and everything should be free like the article indicates. I think this is comparable to the saying "As easy as stealing Candy from a baby." Is the Baby wrong for being naive and giving their candy to the older person who is taking advantage of their lack of life experience? Or do we look at the adult and say; "shame on you for being a piece of shit human stealing candy from a 1 year old." I think all this article shows is that many humans are shitheads who shouldn't be trusted. Sure, the AI could be better trained to not budge on set rules... but that will come in time. I look at the current state of AI as comparable to a 5 year old child. That child one day could be a doctor, but not today... they still have a lot to learn. AI could be great one day, but like trusting a 5 year old to do critical business tasks at this stage of the game is just stupid.

This is a story about nothing really. If you have paid for the software this doesn't effect you in anyway. I bought a lifetime Plex pass 5 years ago for under $100. So at time of writing it has cost me $20 a year and will continue to get cheaper the longer I use it. This is a story to rage bait cheap bastards who feel they are entitled to free everything. If you use Plex and enjoy what it offers, pay them a few dollars and be done with it. I can't blame Plex for wanting to get rid of people who host servers like a god damn public movieplex as a side hustle.

What did you expect with a bunch of diversity hires?

Current LLM's are like chatting with a chronic liar. Once you learn everything they say is just randomly spewed nonsense, you eventually stop talking to them or disregard anything they say as a lie. That is AI in it's current form. It's not useful when you have to spend more time fact checking answers, then if you were to just do the damn thing yourself in the first place. That's why it is underwhelming.

30 years ago? Roger Waters warned people about Record Companies 50 years ago. Check out the lyrics from "Have A Cigar" where Waters writes the song about a Record Company Exec talking to the band:

"Come in here, dear boy, have a cigar
You're gonna go far, you're gonna fly high
You're never gonna die
You're gonna make it if you try
They're gonna love you

Well, I've always had a deep respect
And I mean that most sincerely
The band is just fantastic
That is really what I think
Oh by the way, which one's Pink?

And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it Riding the Gravy Train

We're just knocked out
We heard about the sell-out
You gotta get an album out
You owe it to the people
We're so happy we can hardly count

Everybody else is just green
Have you seen the chart?
It's a hell of a start
It could be made into a monster
If we all pull together as a team

And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
We call it Riding the Gravy Train"
