If they’re decreasing their production, it could mean that physical media is ending. If so, that fucking sucks because you can’t own anything anymore

Sony owns the blu-ray format. I’m worried.

This is just the Euro NCAP guidelines, not actual EU regulation, but still a positive development.
And I agree that the EU have been on an amazing streak lately, they seem to be the only governing body actually fighting for consumer rights.
Then how do you suggest we keep in touch with those older people in our lives who think other social media are scary?
I broadly agree with you, but it feels like cinema is shifting back to quality again. We’re all tired of shitty superhero movies and many of the recent ones have bombed at the box office. Hell, one of the biggest movies of last year was mostly about men in suits talking about science and it was great. Dune pt. II is also an incredible breath of fresh air and shows that it’s still possible to make a massive blockbuster with mass appeal but also a strong sense of style and integrity. I really hope this trend continues because I want real cinema and not mere ‘content’.
Hell yeah. Unfortunately they don’t grow where I live, but we have plenty of Porcinis and Chanterelles which taste amazing
I never pick any mushrooms which could potentially be confused with anything toxic. Even if I’m 99% sure, that’s not enough.
Last year I picked a huge amount of mushrooms in the forest, dehydrated them (you can buy a dehydrator or use an oven) and ground them to a powder.
I put mushroom powder in damn near everything I cook, gives it a nice hit of umami.
Definitely skipping that update then. Thanks for the warning
Yeah totally. In fact, I’ll be playing a live Porcupine Tree/Steven Wilson tribute set next month so I’m thoroughly immersed in that music at the moment
Is your username a Porcupine Tree reference? They’ee one of my favorite bands!
Which search engine do you use?
I’ve started to use Duckduckgo but it’s a bit hit and miss.
The total annihilation of the advertising industry is on my utopian wish list.
Also, don’t greenlight 100 shows if you only plan on giving 5 of them a second season, and you base that decision entirely on algorithms instead of genuine human feedback.
And please, for the love of god, let me look at a movie for longer than 1 second before you start automatically playing it because your almighty algorithm determined that it would force users to pick a movie faster. It’s the most annoying “feature” that makes me inclined to avoid Netflix as much as possible.
I have close friends from Grindavík, it’s surreal and sad watching its destruction live on television. A building is currently being surrounded by lava on one of the livestreams. Luckily it’s only an abandoned research facility, but it’s only a matter of time until it reaches the nearest residencies.
I think the bigger a corporation is, the more shitty things it had to do in order to reach that status.
There are some good companies with a moral code, but they’ll never become competitive with the big dogs in our current capitalist system.
You’re right, copyright laws were written ages ago when mass media was exclusively owned by big media companies. If there was ever a copyright dispute, the company’s lawyers would meet up with the other company’s lawyers and either settle or go to court, and both parties could easily pay for the legal fees because they were, you know, big media companies.
But nowadays everyone can simply upload something that can potentially reach billions of people, which is unprecedented in human (or legal) history, and the legal system simply hasn’t caught up to this radical shift in the status quo. This is why Youtube has to compromise between the big media conglomerates with expensive lawyers and, well, the rest of us.
Runk means masturbation in Icelandic so that adds another layer of hilarity to this
