I don't think it's as much about good/bad cgi as now being able to do things that are so over-the-top unbelievable while at the same time looking completely real. The uncanny mountain?
I fell asleep all three times that I attempted to watch the second Hobbit movie. I didn't even go to the last one. It's not about CGI (I very much enjoyed Avatar, but the bending of reality like unrealistic fight scenes where someone can fall off a 10m cliff, brush themselves off and run away like nothing happened.
"Sweden has always been a solid market economy", states the present right-wing government on its website. And that is certainly true. Sweden has never been a socialist society - based on public ownership of production, workers’ control and management, social equality and a democratic plan of production. Neither has Sweden been a ‘mixed economy’ or provided a ‘third way’ - an alternative to both capitalism and socialism, if such a thing were possible.
from the monitor cable from when the breadboard slid off the desk. I've been too lazy to clean it up and afraid I'll short something of I touch it. Uptime over two months.
I was here long before ID's existed and held out during the registration controversy, but eventually got one in the 60-thousands. I rarely use it, not worth it anymore.
Isn't that what automated code testing does? I attended a sales demo once and the people were showing all the types of bugs that it could catch. This was twenty years ago and hope that it would be much better by now.
I remember a story that I read when I was in college about some guy who got laid off from his job, so bought a pail and a squeegee and wandered through neighborhoods washing people's windows for $5/house (this was 20 years ago) and wound up making some serious money. His son also worked with him.
That way they can say I know I'm so bad for doing this but...
Everyone already knows smoking is bad for you, being fat is bad for you, buying useless crap that ends up in a landfill without even being opened is bad for you, driving without a seat belt is bad for you, riding a shopping cart off your roof is bad for you. Yet people continue to do such things, even very smart and well educated people.

The Hobbit vs Dragonslayer . I remember thinking while watching District 9, wow this is like watching a video game, how boring.
your music sucks
I'm a little surprised by this. Previously good music came from when times were bad. Maybe things aren't as bad as bad as people say.
Dumbing down is a real thing. There are many causes for this.
Millennials don't know the difference.

I wrote a program in high school to translate between languages, It was written in BASIC and did an OK job, at least as far as my homework went

$5,000 is not much money
I think technically, you could just print the money for interest on the debt.
I make less than $2k/month. My expenses are less than $800/month. That is a lot of money to play with, especially when you already own everything.
How would my life be any different if those 20 people were dead? If it wouldn't be, then I have no problem.
What happens when all the doctors leave?

It's always different this time. The only thing humans have ever learned from history is that humans don't learn from history.
Bet we get
What are you betting? Someone else's money?
You're forgetting Elon Musk.
If I was willing to work for $10/hr, I see countless opportunities around me to earn that much on my own business.
How many are going to do that
Most of them after they reach 45-50yo.
