Either mass block or do a big spin of your scroll wheel like you're on Price is Right whenever you click on a big tweet.

I love when I click through on a controversial tweet with a lot of bluecheck replies. It feels like I'm a miner who just found a rich vein, except for blocking

Did Seth Green ever try to make that NFT show after he got his ape back?

Also, why are we talking about NFTs again? Did something new happen?

This post would have been a PM, but apparently when I got banned a little while back I lost plat and didn't notice, so. Saddest Rhino, whoever reported me if anyone, good looking out. I had some unexamined animosity towards homeless people cluttering my psyche that I needed to discard. Every day I'm trying to become a better person, so thank you for giving me a push in the right direction.

That’s literally what happened with Disney and that boba fett show. The whole reason it existed is because of a dispute over somebody working on the mandalorian, and the parts with the fully cgi animated and ai voiced Luke was to prove they didn’t even need to hire the big name actors anymore. It looked and sounded awful and everybody complained, but hell, give it a decade

Calling a bit of BS here as they already did Rogue One and created Tarkin from scratch. Mandalorian is a natural progression of that AND Tron Legacy with Clu and Jeff Bridges.

And THAT is after the entire cast of Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. (A different company, but still a demonstration of tech)

De-aging and replacing actors with CGI is not a new thing.

quote:

NEW YORK—In a viral video that has put heightened pressure on local authorities, a vigilante reportedly killed Eric Adams Thursday after he acted erratically as mayor of New York. “While I didn’t want to do it, [Adams] was ranting and raving incoherently, making me fear for my safety and the safety of everyone around me,” said the unnamed vigilante, who claimed he felt threatened when the visibly unhinged mayor took the microphone at a press conference and began screaming about gutting the city’s social services, an act that left him with no choice but to put Adams in a choke hold for over 15 minutes. “He was acting all crazy up there on the podium, and I just had this gut feeling that if he didn’t hurt me, he was going to hurt someone else. It’s lucky I was there; otherwise, who knows what he, as a high level official, could have done. We can’t have mayors like that loose on the streets of New York.” At press time, the City of New York had released a short statement indicating that while any loss of life was tragic, there were clearly serious mental health issues at play in the incident.

Don't bees swarm like this when the queen is relocating or something? Like hypothetically at the center of that mass is a queen and if you take her out and move her the mass will follow.

Yep. That's why they wanted a beekeeper, who routinely relocates swarms. Unfortunately, as mentioned in the second thread, beekeepers aren't allowed to touch the plane.

It's pretty funny that they have a specific rule that says beekeepers aren't allowed to touch planes. What happened in the past to make them put that rule in place?

Beekeepers aren't allowed to touch planes because it's feared they'll buzz the tower.

I just assumed that anyone who isn't a member of the flight crew or airport staff isn't permitted to touch airplane stuff
