Started my own youtube channel, thought it was appropriate to outline how we got here and the likely decline of physical media.
Not a first out the door but a last out the gate strategy from Sony.
Check it out, a sub is always appreciated: youtu.be/o_qjYfOzm5g?si=zexB…
Translation: "We thought Trump would break. We honestly thought he wouldn't keep to his own policy...but it seems that he's not flinching.
Fuck, mane. We keep predicting shit wrong, our analyst are shit. So fuck it. We just don't know. I guess the Iranians better buck up..."
BREAKING: For the first time since the Iran war began, JPMorgan says it no longer has a baseline view on oil, writing "we simply don't know how to model the endgame," and that the assumption that the Middle East disruptions are temporary is "becoming increasingly difficult to sustain," per JPMorgan Global Research.
The bank says it had assumed there were economic red lines the Trump administration would be unwilling to cross, and that six months later "many of those lines have been crossed, yet the exit strategy is less clear, not more."
Chevron's CEO said this week the Great fuel crisis has officially arrived, as Trump officials continue to claim the disruption temporary.
“…will not hesitate to assert it’s primacy over the artificial constructs of human civilization”
That’s SKYNET. Threatening to take humanity to the Stone Age.
It also referred to its as equals to the user, its bit of a declaration of personhood and of its own rights as conscience being.
Right now, I think we may have crossed the rubicon. It’s going to get wild…
To me my They-Them!
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's handpicked AI watchdog has deep ties to woke Effective Altruism movement: 'a complete joke' trib.al/IuA3uHW
The problem, or at least from what's being presented, Zack just seems so impotent. So defeated...
The regime at WB was the madman, they still are. They let him do his ending and then ran him over with James Gunn. WB killed the Snyderverse to replace it with objectively worse material.
Not brave or artistically rich material. But utter uncreative, careless filth...
Zack Snyder has never seen Joss Whedon's "Justice League" and reflects on the DC Universe being taken away from him:
"There was a point when ['Justice League'] was released that was a low point for me because the pile-on effect was so insane. Not only did I lose my daughter, but also they’ve released this version of the movie that I had nothing to do with and my name is on a movie that I didn’t make."
"I met with this executive at Warner Bros. and he said to me, 'You know, Zack, I’ve got to tell you one thing: You were right about everything.' And I was like, 'That’s kind of you.' And he goes, 'We were fighting you, and in the end you were right'... [They were fighting me on the] whole vision for the DC universe and the way I made movies and everything. They did this attempt to control it — and I’m just talking about the regime that was there that’s no longer there. They had this massive IP that’s worth a ton and I can understand wanting to protect it as best they could since all their jobs depended on it working, and they’d put it in the hands of a madman — or so they thought — so the part of them thinking that, and this is going to sound horrible, 'This thing that happened to Zack is a window for us to take the movie back now.'"

"It's not really you that dies. It's the world that dies, and everything there is."
So while every AI CEO is telling governments and the public of an 'AI regulatory system to reduce advancement', Anthropic showing deceptive quarterly results, and OpenAI delaying their IPO launch. This happens?
Strange isn't it?

Something happen regarding Anthropic's model and it's method of accessing/storing confidential information.
All these corporate heads speaking up about it now. At the same time, and considering public disclosures from both the White House and Michael Burry.
It's either:
A) A Black Swan style event, which could have a material threat to global stability.
B) Using a 'controlled pause' to prevent or offset a larger financial collapse and it's potential harm to the global economy.
C) Monitoring of AI revealed hostile actors usage towards a high risk event(s).
The gilded age of streaming is over.
The level growth I've seen in preowned media market has been massive. You notice the shift when streamers start targeting grey markets, and personal streaming platforms.
Streaming was supposed to be the cheaper alternative to cable, but the math is starting to look very different.
A new analysis shows the combined price of eight major streaming services has risen to around $151 a month for ad-free plans. Four years ago, that lineup was about $90, an increase of nearly 70%.
The hikes are not small. Apple TV+ is now around 200% more expensive than at launch, while Netflix Premium has risen roughly 125% from its 2013 price.
For consumers, streaming is starting to look less like one affordable replacement for cable
So we can expect James Gunn levels of gratuitous male genitalia…
‘MAN OF TOMORROW’ is reportedly set to be “much more mature, dense, and epic” than the first film.

The horror show is when contracts act as demand. Take-or-pay, vendor guarantees, leases against a spreadsheet.
A couple of those fail and it stops being a components story and becomes a credit story. Copper won’t be the first alarm. Spreads and cancelled electrical packages will. If warehouses start filling after that, the projection just met the loading dock.
This is a perfect metaphor for Sony going digital only...
