Turn around (mouse)
Zoom with + and -
Change quality to 8K if your system can cope
During the junk-yard scene (2:33), a screen at the back shows outside the studio - you can see the days whiz past.
I've not seen the movie; it sounds OK.

Being able to watch the monitor where you can see the blur of the animator adjusting the character is fascinating - you're seeing two completely different versions of reality at the same time.

especially when the "new" legal FM system kicked in. Truckers stayed on AM and the new licensed operators would get washed out by them especially those who fitted huge home antenna's and 100w amps. a 4w radio was no match and the slagging matches that ensued where a joy to behold with physical violence and equipment damage not uncommon. with such short ranges it was a lot easier to find somebody and there was no hiding behind a keyboard :)

This is an edit of a recent Spacex first stage flight. It's of special interest because there's audio! Get your samplers out! I reckon the RCS thrusters alone make a fairly decent range of drum noises.

cool, is that real time? it seems to take off and turn back much quicker?
almost like a video game shooting stuff when landing

Nah, it's not real-time, it's very sped up at the beginning - like 10x or something. Launch to staging is about 2.5 minutes, not 15 seconds.
After 15 seconds, it's only about 500m altitude, doing 200 kph.
Launches are surprisingly slow, really. Only about as fast as a regular car accelerates. But then, it keeps accelerating.
The later parts of the landing is real-time - ie, the landing burn is about the last 30 seconds.
In real-time, it landed at about T+8 minutes.

Demonstrated and discussed this project.
It didn't win in its category.
The highlight of the convention was someone infiltrating an INTEL zoom meeting furiously masturbating.

We get this all the time with AI learning from inputs: if the data stock is skewed, then the output is too.
Reckon it'd be simple enough to fix with more stock images. Not a machine learning expert though.

IDK about that. I came across it on TV yesterday - the "Now 80s" channel, which I put on while cooking. I remember it originally being quite an innovative video, back when Channel 4 was showing MTV.

Denis Villeneuve. Sicario, Arrival, Blade Runner 2049. That's not a bad back catalogue. He might totally have dropped the ball on this one, but I'm willing to go and find out.

Well, I tried to. It was impenetrable and incoherent, so I gave up.
Then I borrowed the book from a schoolfriend, thinking that it would make sense if I read that first. It didn't. I found it to be even more impenetrable and incoherent than the film, with added fucking footnotes and appendices.
Years later, I watched the film to its conclusion. I was glad that I had, and I thought it was slightly less impenetrable, but still incoherent. I haven't attempted to read any of the books again, because life's too fucking short.

"A 13-year-old boy in Glendale, Utah, was shot several times by police officers after his mother called 911 for help with his mental health crisis.
...
He was experiencing a crisis because it was her first day back at work in almost a year and "he has bad separation anxiety", she said.
...
"I said, he's unarmed, he doesn't have anything, he just gets mad and he starts yelling and screaming," Ms Barton said. "He's a kid, he's trying to get attention, he doesn't know how to regulate."
...
An officer shot the boy when he tried to flee on foot, Sgt Horrocks said.
According to an online fundraiser set up to raise money for medical bills, Linden Cameron has suffered "injuries to his shoulder, both ankles, intestines and bladder".
"The long-term effects of his injuries are still unknown, but it is likely that his recovery will be long and require multiple kinds of treatment," the page, set up by a friend of the family, says.
According to data compiled and regularly updated by the Washington Post, 1,254 people with a mental illness have been shot dead by US police since the beginning of 2015. This represents 22% of all people shot and killed by police across the country over that period."
