For sure. Especially if you’re ever planning to work at a smaller company, have any interest in showing off your own work, generally enjoy 3D… really it was a bit of a joke.
If I knew a bit more about blender specifically I would have said something like, “Good news! With the xyz fur shader even a crudely drawn grayscale map will blaj* the hell out of that shark.” ^*I also didn’t know Dutch? ;-)^

making materials/textures sucks
Don’t. In a production pipeline, that’s someone else’s job ;-)

I remember when he bulldoze a bunch of people‘s vehicles… and part of me was like “Cool, riding an ATV in Central Park for fun probably should result in your vehicle getting crushed…” and the little voice in the back of my head says this is a bit over the top, even for a publicity stunt. 
Need to listen to that little voice more often 😅

Obviously you’ve never been… everything here causes cancer. We’re amending the law next year so we can just label everything that isn’t carcinogenic because it will substantially reduce the number of Prop 65 labels that end up in landfills ;-)

Yeah, it was definitely intended as humor an attempt at levity.

Pagers, often used by civilians and healthcare workers for communication, are small, battery-powered wireless devices that receive text messages, audio, and visual signals.
Boy do I feel old now…
According to Walla, the operation "neutralised a significant part of Hezbollah's military command and control system."
This was the next sentence. My personal pity-party was subsequently cancelled.
A further linked article speculates that the pagers were rigged with explosives. As their main power source is an alkaline AAA battery. No crazy Mr. Robot hack, just regular depravity.

Followed shortly by ‘oh shit’ and ‘we dropped two weights’ then ‘guys, it’s getting kind of wet in here…’
Just kidding, mostly.
Serious question: how does a submarine know how much it weighs?

Fine work you’re doing here… really hope I can hand a lend someday.
Anyone notice siri no longer recognizes common foreign idoms anymore? Either in TTS or Ask Siri… The only concrete example I have is recognizing “Croque Monsieur” since my love for hot ham sandwiches has spanned the ages… but I feel like there’s something more nefarious at work here. It feels like used to be able to ask for a info about random foreign words and it would at least trigger a web search for something phonetically similar, which would often get me the translation I was after. But lately* the TTS engine is militantly transforming everything into English. Obviously this is more subtle and open to other interpretations, but for example I just asked her what “hikikomori” were which got interpreted as “Hickam Morty,” with top hits for the show Rick and Morty.
Not sure if I just haven’t noticed the standard disclaimer before or if it’s a new “feature” 😬
Okay, it probably doesn’t really qualify because it’s; new, high-budget, directed by Zac Snyder, etc. But hear me out. This hot mess starts with space-nazis vs space-vikings, takes a turn through Star Wars, Oceans Eleven, space-Rome, and a few tropes that defy easy space-hyphenation. To say the plot makes almost no sense would be generous. I’m loathed to spoil the greater arc here, but the plot does hinge on a village on the edge of space being forced to harvest grain in order to feed a passing army… there’s probably a Kurosawa reference here somewhere, but good movies just aren’t my jamb so I wouldn’t know ;-) As I stare at the frozen credits at the end of part two and contemplate my life I have to note that there must actually have been footage cut from this movie (you’ll understand if you watch it) because they credit a Snake Wrangler! So, if you have 4-5 hours of free time this weekend, a Netflix account you haven’t already cancelled, and are allergic to nice weather, I humbly submit, for your consideration: Rebel Moon parts I & II. ………. (All the periods I probably should have used)
