tonight @jamesotron.bsky.social and I rewatched Prometheus, a film about a robot called David saying "nothing it's fine don't worry about it" with nefarious intent each time a character asks him what he's doing with all that scientific equipment

Welp I've been using Tidal for the last 24 hours and it totally rocks so I've kicked Spotify to the kerb, thanks to everyone who recommended it!

Win10 users, today's the day they make all big holes in your PC and all the hackers swarm into them...

...unless you click "no thanks actually" in which case they just actually keep supporting Win10 for another year for some reason. here's how:

James Wallis @jameswallis.bsky.social · 1d

Windows 10 users in the EU and UK, you can get free Extended Security Updates for a year just by:
> Settings > Windows Update > Check for updates. Click.
Scroll down to Enrol in Extended Security Updates (or similar wording).
Click on it.
Follow prompts.
Bingo, you're good for a year.

they're amazing. i don't know how to put into words what i'm feeling. it's a new toy, but it doesn't feel like it. they feel like 1980s transformers (with more articulation) that i found on ebay in great condition

and @sixotf.bsky.social's video won me over, so pink and white arcee got the stickers

With the stories that have come out of my local comp recently concerning teachers encouraging students to use AI to write all of their essays I can absolutely believe it 😩

Boatcka ⚓️ @tainkirrahe.bsky.social · 20h

Yep they’re filming without any script whatsoever at the moment!! which is…certainly…a thing…

Boatcka ⚓️ @tainkirrahe.bsky.social · 21h

I think Avengers is going to be a mess anyway with all the stories of filming being done without a finished script (???) but Avatar will make bank, that’s a movie spectacle you need to see on the big screen. Audiences really seem to gel with it

Boatcka ⚓️ @tainkirrahe.bsky.social · 21h

And I say this as someone who used to love 30STM’s music too

Boatcka ⚓️ @tainkirrahe.bsky.social · 21h

True, but when the allegations are around someone general audience barely know they tend to stick as being the only thing that person is “known” for.

We’ve also had films like Sinners be runaway successes at the box office on smaller budgets so audiences are showing up - just not to Tron :/
