KOKO: No, Professor Purchase Koko Gorilla
CHOTINER: That doesn't sound like the funds were justifiable.

lmao that we built the magic superintelligence and asked it about a stock and its insight was “fundamentals and market sentiment”

LUCASARTS PRESENTS
Columbo in:
SCUMM of the Earth
#pixelart
a pixel art scene of Columbo doddering around rendered in a style reminiscent of LucasArts' Point and Click adventure games. Columbo is looking at a dog resting on the ground, with the inspect dialogue: "You're a real friendly boy aren't you? Oh, you're a girl." In his inventory is a cigar, an egg, some sunflower seeds and some dog treats.

No correct aspect ratio upload to be found on YouTube, and I could be more rigorous about my editing, but I genuinely think this is some of the funniest 106 seconds in comedy history, and definitely in my top five Simpsons jokes.

typically when i arrive in a new location i send out a pulse, an electromagnetic wave that helps me "see" the surroundings. it also helps me locate nearby objects of interest to my mission, like power sources or communication hubs

Buried in Altman's post is the real story: "People are generating much more than we expected per user," using massive compute resources on content that's often being generated for very small audiences (it is, after all, a social media app). OpenAl will "have to somehow make money for video generation," Altman wrote. Translation: Sora is burning through compute costs with no offsetting revenue. Altman floated a potential solution: "We are going to try sharing some of this revenue with rightsholders who want their characters generated by users." The idea-perhaps similar to You Tube's ad-monetization program for videos that include copyrighted material -would give studios a financial incentive to opt in. "The exact model will take some trial and error to figure out," Altman acknowledged, "but we plan to start very soon."

Just saw these stills from Akira Kurosawa's High and Low and said "Good heavens" out loud.
Man peering out of a bed of flowers with a reflection shining back from his glasses. Back facing shot of a man watching sail boats from behind a fence. Silhouette of a man pulling a gun on another man as he looks at the backdrop of the mountains Mustached man gripping his briefcase tightly, face scrunched up in a scowl, as he rides in a filled passenger car.
