It's very sweet that your friend Mario is so supportive.

Wahoo!

I think the only better option than this was Apple (and that was never really happening).

This could've gone to the Evil Ellisons in a true nightmare scenario.

My hope is their goal is to use the WB banner for theatrical and keep Netflix streaming-focused.

But that's probably too idealistic for this timeline.

Judging by Bailey's reaction, they do not feel the same way:

I'd much rather have Netflix own them than the Ellisons over at Paramount

Either way, feels like a no-win scenario

You know how I know this is bullshit?

There isn't a single government building that isn't constantly playing the news on every TV in every room.

When I worked gov, first thing I did in the morning was change my office TVs to Animal Planet and wait till someone noticed.

This is actually the Bluesky introduction of my new pup Zero.

He demands you feel better.

Jim Downey? The star of There Will Be Blood?

With the island?

And they even set up a Nightmare on Elm Street crossover:

Resolve took some time for me to get used to for sure, but the updates have really pushed it closer to the Adobe suite.

Also, while DaVinci did add AI tools to the program, they didn't force you to randomly pay more money out of nowhere because of them (like Adobe).

Here's a breakdown to compare the two if you're interested. They also only have a one-payment model (and a free version that has a lot of stuff).

Sick of After Effects? Switch to Fusion in 2025 for VFX and Motion Graphics!

I've been slowly transitioning to be part of the DaVinci family (🤌).

AE is still the better program for 2D motion graphics stuff, but Fusion feels more like it's for filmmakers than designers.

I'm glad I know AE because most projects/employers will use it, but I ditched it for personal use.

I was ready to stop using Adobe programs when they went subscription model.

I canceled once they forced AI.

Alex Karp? From Palantir? The ones who funded Jeffrey Epstein?

And they'll call it "DEI" and say she didn't deserve it

Why would @mehdirhasan.bsky.social employ a hack like this at Zeteo?

Didn't he deal with enough Nazis during that Jubilee thing?
December 4, 2025 at 11:02 AM
You work for @mehdirhasan.bsky.social at Zeteo and you're fine with Nazis?

You sure about that?

Are you telling me the guy who shilled Bored Apes with Paris Hilton is a greedy creep?

I refuse to believe it.

And stop using genAI, even to dunk on them.

GenAI empowers Nazis because the money goes in their pockets.

I too get my sociological statistics from… Wall Street Apes.

According to you. It was taught in a graduate Economics program by a professor with a lot more experience than you or me.

I'll take their word for it over random internet contrarian.
