Colbert is a noted Tolkien fanatic, I never watched much of him but sheerly through internet osmosis I know he loves the property. He's also been getting into adapting fiction, owning the rights to and trying to a produce a series from The Chronicles of Amber, one of the major inspirations for Game of Thrones. I guess I don't know if he has any skill at writing narrative fiction, but unlike the dreadful LOTR TV show produciton he's at least got the enthusiasm and appreciation for the subject matter.

Comment The blatant lies part of the hype (Score 2) 107

it's been a neverending stream of blatant lies out of Nvidia around this, the kind that spells "easy lawsuit" when the bubble pops. Someone finally got through the PR machine at Nvidia to find this thing is nothing more than a slop filter pasted over video games. All the stuff about "materials and lighting" and artist input and etc. are easily provable lies. The demo itself is basically a lie, 5 second clips without camera movement because if the camera does move stuff can start warping around randomly. That's the point we've reached in the hype bubble, when even the biggest companies feel free to spout nonsense, legally actionable lies to keep the hype going then the collapse is probably within a year.

I have announced Oxygen+. Better than stale old oxygen, I've re-engineered it for the future of breathing. Better, faster, stronger, and since "old" communist deployed oxygen suddenly seems to be running low as of late you'd better take out a lifetime subscription now, as you could certainly be caught dead without Oxygen+!

1. Subsidize product running off "big iron" 2. Get people hooked 3. Jack up the price as high as it'll go 4. Wonder why everyone decided to run the software on their own hardware instead. Rinse and repeat decade after decade.

Cheeto man literally tried and failed a year ago. There's a congressional law that mandates any state that starts using daylight savings time cannot legally stop without permission, and Congress is filled with so many dusty liches that they refuse to repeal this law despite overwhelming popularity to do so because their literally fossilized brains cannot comprehend doing the jobs they were chosen to do.

America's problems go far deeper than dementia Hitler, the two houses of Congress are nothing but petty robbers so old they think walking on two legs is a modern invention, and it has a populace so disconnected and uncaring about how the government works or what it does they keep re-electing these paleozoic cretins indefinitely. Cheeto man is just the apotheosis of glitzy, substanceless drooling uncaringness that is the United States.

Understanding the US is currently under the thumb of an ancient, tyrannical dictator US President Donald Trump has vowed to end the regime of the United States and free its people from oppression. The President is quoted as saying "They have oil, they have all the oil, did you know this? I just learned how much oil they have, and land. So much land, the United States will be the biggest the country on the continent after we take over the US. The US President better surrender quietly."
