  10. Re:Who cares? on The Oscar-Winning Special Effects of Blade Runner 2049 (bbc.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    personally i thought that this movie related to all the subtext of the original rather well. the original was probably sold as an action flick with some philosophy added to appease the fanbase (electric sheep) and writers and the creative process.
    this however took that deeper meaning and made the questions that we may ask have more nuance and extend where the story goes.

    I rather enjoyed it a lot. i think they should have kept "Rachel" from showing emotions because that was the only way to catch her fakeness, can't copy the underlying muscle.. at least not just yet plus the softness texture of skin was in stark contrast with Decker.

  13. you are missing the point that most jobs don't require a human. we only used humans because there was no other valid option.

    my name is "Peggy", you insensitive clod.

  24. i quote
    "." "Facebook and Google have popularized scurrilous news sources through algorithms that are profitable for these platforms but inherently unreliable," Murdoch said. "Recognition of a problem is one step on the pathway to cure, but the remedial measures that both companies have so far proposed are inadequate, commercially, socially and journalistically.""

    all this is valid criticism of Facebook and google.
    it of course does not take away from the hypocrisy of "fair and balanced". If these statements were made by Times, or Guardian or washington Post... they would be just as valid.

  25. if its an AI and not some bullshit database pretending to be intelligent then yeah no worries i would swipe right.
