That's a conclusion you could draw but it's hardly proof! The other cited were a film-length conclusion to a tv series, an unnecessary live action remake of an animated movie, and another superhero movie. Another conclusion one could draw is that people don't want derivative crap and don't care how it's made or what the budget is if it's a good film. Or you could conclude it's a success of viral marketing, or...

    It's becoming widely accepted that it's not safe to put pictures of your children on social media... (cont. in post) in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

    If you think kids won't get around any restrictions in about 14 minutes you've never met a kid. Yeah not all of them could do it, but it just takes one and then then bypasses are circulating within 16 minutes. It's completely unworkable for what they claim they want, and will only hurt people who do comply when the collected data is leaked in 18 minuites

    He's been less clear on that but generally on the correct side of trans issues. Other queer issues he has been a staunch ally, apparently even when it's apparently caused arguments with his own family, and calling out the pope while being Catholic. So please allow me this one tiny bit of hope - I had such high hopes for Starmer and they were all dashed and then hopes I didn't even know I had were dashed too... and Starmer was the best prime minister of the previous 14 years!

    I'm looking for tech communities that are not specifically about AI but also not fanatically opposed to AI (feddit.uk)
     

    The ones that I have found react with vehement hatred spewing the same oft-debunked nonsense every time AI is mentioned even obliquely, and anything even vaguely critical of that groupthink gets downvoted massively, and frankly it's tiring and boring! (If you're thinking of responding with such comments here, don't!)

    But I do want to read and talk about tech in general

    General communities like AskLemmy or whatever are also welcome

    I just spent four months in hospital in the UK. How screwed (financially) would I be in the US? (feddit.uk)
     

    I spent half that time in Critical Care (much of that on a ventilator, a small amount sedated), and most of the rest in a specialist neuro-rehab unit. I would have died otherwise.

    Fortunately it cost me nothing - Thank Bevan for the NHS - but if I were in the US I imagine I would be financially crippled!
