I’ll let you know in 2 years when it is on sale for at least 50% off.
Put it simply I just hate ads. Anything that puts in ads is terrible. Including Sync for Lemmy who seems to have completely missed the point of getting the hell away from Reddit.
The next terrible thing is automatically generated content and bots, but I guess those are also really just ads.
I understand the headphones in this scenario would be made by Sony which is why it being partnered with Noctua seems kind of pointless. They don’t bring anything to the table when it comes to headphones beyond the color scheme.
No, because Noctua is not just a color scheme it is a company known for making quality fans. I don’t care about brands. I care about quality products and as far as I’m aware they have never produced headphones before or know anything about making headphones.
I’ve never seen this show, but that guy 2nd on the left looks like some kind of skater punk in space. And that thing on the far right just makes me laugh because of how serious he is being while looking like that. I need to watch some of this just to see what it is like.
Yes, which works for the few, but they know that the majority are completely oblivious and will just consume whatever they are given.
When looking into this show awhile back I heard something about how the CGI effects were done in 4:3, but then a latter release was in 16:9 so all the CGI was stretched because they couldn’t re-render the CGI. Are they implying that this is going to be resolved with this release?
That all sounds reasonable. I’ll be sure to watch it when I have time. There are a lot of them though. Do you know where a good place to start is?
The plot of the Blame! movie is almost non-existence in the manga. Some elements of it are in there for sure, but I would not consider it even attempting to adapt the manga. But at the same time it doesn’t really matter due to the nature of the manga. Which is basically Killy going on an adventure over an indeterminate extremely long period of time across an indeterminate seemingly infinite distance. Since his adventure is basically endless the events of the movie could conceivably happen at any point in the manga.
So the only problem with the movie is that it ends. Which means you don’t really understand how endless his journey is.
I’ve also just never seen Macross. The art always looked beautiful, but I’ve never picked it up because I didn’t understand the concept of the singing in a sci fi setting. I’m sure I would enjoy it whatever is going on, but I’ve had endless other things to watch and read.
I think seeing this movie in theaters in the 60s would have a drastically different impression on me. Being in my 30s I obviously wasn’t alive when this movie was released. I have seen so many other wonderously imaginative works of science fiction leading up to having seen this one a few years ago. It is difficult for me to imagine this movie, which still holds up today, as being one of my first introductions into the genre in a time where such visuals and concepts were not really a thing yet.
I suspect there is a lot one could glean from the story on a personal level, but after having finished it I didn’t feel like I have learned anything new about the world, society or myself. It’s highly possible that I missed the point or moral of the story they were going for. It was definitely an experience to remember though.
I love this movie, but I feel like it is more of an art project than a compelling story. But it is worth watching for the cinematography alone.
Here’s some notable highlights.
I wish this image could be larger… Here it is on imgur so you can expand it. https://i.imgur.com/DddifXR.jpg
You might really like the book The Final Architecture. The author has very imaginative ideas on alien species that basically share nothing in common with humans biologically.
I actually tried watching Battlestar Galactica awhile back, but the religious themes made me drop it far before the end. I’m glad I did if it turns even more into something I wouldn’t enjoy.
That isn’t a good justification to me. If it’s ok for you then it’s ok for the rest of the world too. You might believe ads aren’t bad and that’s fine. At least we can agree to disagree on that as our opinions aren’t reconcilable. If your app can’t exist without ads then I don’t believe it should exist at all. Or any other software in the world.
