Comment Re:DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY -- no spoliers (Score 4, Informative) 69

Ah, the fine words of someone that wanted a movie that spent half its runtime retelling Superman's origin story, and the other half rehashing a specific comic book word for word.

Interesting you have so much to say about a movie you watched one quarter of.

Comment R7 already supports RAW (Score -1) 11

" Imaging unlocking Open Gate on the R5/R6 lines, or RAW on cameras that don't have it (like R6, R7, etc.),"

Imagine unlocking features that already exist. Mind-blowing. Even the R100 (the lowest end of the R stack) supports RAW.

Do they mean the 7D? That also supports RAW.

Do they mean some other format like dual pixel RAW? R7 at least already supports that too.

It's always fun watching people on Reddit talk about stuff they're utterly unfamiliar with.

Comment Moviefone? (Score 0) 99

The pining for Moviefone really undermines their messaging, to the point where I think it can be dismissed entirely despite the general idea that media browsing UIs for streaming services suck.

First, there's the "OK, boomer" aspect of Moviefone. I'm in my mid-40s and never once used the service, but maybe I'm an outlier.

Then, there's comparing Moviefone and the newspaper listing showtimes for the 5 movies showing near you, to the listing of hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of pieces of media in a format that makes discovery even remotely possible. Utterly incomparable to begin with.

If you just want a listing of movies showing at your theater, call your theater and ask. Or go to any of countless sites that list movie showtimes, including your local theater's.

Don't undermine your messaging by opining for what was obsoleted 20 years ago and wasn't exactly good to start with.

Only when the answers are widely known and documented. Since LLMs don't have any means of performing logic operations like math, the LLM isn't actually DOING math (barring outside libraries, which isn't the LLM doing the math but more the UI/frontend choosing to load a Python library rather than sending the raw prompt to the LLM).
