Great points

Hey ya think if the coolest thing ever were rejecting consumerism it’d make it palatable? Like your kids’ friends relish in having only three high-quality outfits or something, and read library books for fun… (like their parents)… then maybe your kid doesn’t beg for the cool new toy.

Pipe dream ya just thinking in that case if commenting about rejecting consumerism helped spur a trend it might be OK. Think TikTok driving Stanley thermos sales but the opposite

Edit: “can we get minimalism viral again”

clears throat Don’t you think we should ask for more than a million dollars? A million dollars isn’t exactly a lot of money these days. Virtucon alone makes over 9 billion dollars a year!

Any paranoid people in this community, no just me OK nvm

Guilt absolved! The lady is using it as her profile picture:

“For anyone with any interest in cinematography, here’s an excerpt from the American Cinematographer detailing the lighting rig for this location:

Batman’s sleek secret bunker was built in the hangar at Cardington, a walled open space that measures 200’ long by 60’ wide and has no support columns. Onscreen, the entire ceiling of the bunker emits light. “Cardington is an enormous space, and it took a bit of engineering to light it from above,” says Perry Evans, a veteran of Batman Begins who served as gaffer for the U.K. shoot. “Our lights couldn’t interfere with the construction that supported the ceiling, so we brought in a rock ’n’ roll-lighting company that built a huge gantry that hung 40 feet above the set.”

Evans and his team hung 300 space lights about 15’ above the actual ceiling; each lamp had six 800-watt bulbs, diffusion and silk skirting. The production tested various materials for the actual ceiling to find a type of Perspex that allowed enough light through while hiding the actual elements. Around the entire light rig, the crew hung a series of 20’x20’ white sheets to contain and smooth out the light. The thorough prep, which included six weeks of rigging, made for smooth shoot days in the bunker. Evans kept a couple of Image 80s on hand for closer work.

The script called for a light gag where the lights in the bunker come on and off in dramatic fashion. Possibilities discussed included dimming lights up, starting in the center and expanding concentrically, or in a chase, one at a time. During prep, Evans and his team programmed a variety of options and Nolan chose a method that followed the action. As Batman walks toward the elevator to exit, the lights go off in rows moving away from camera until Batman is seen in dramatic silhouette, lifted out of the frame by the elevator. Then the last light goes out. “That was a fun challenge,” says Evans. “It took a couple of takes, but once we got it right, it looked really good.””

:DDD

Also, complaints do allege things.

Allegations can be entirely bulletproof accurate.

No way! What country is this? That sounds expensive! Any videos of these situations (don’t want you to selfdox too hard if avoidable but maybe it’s nbd depending on the politics of your post history)?

Oh almost forgot

More than three years ago we founded Worldcoin with the ambition of creating a new identity and financial network owned by everyone; the rollout begins today. If successful, we believe Worldcoin could drastically increase economic opportunity, scale a reliable solution for distinguishing humans from AI online while preserving privacy, enable global democratic processes, and eventually show a potential path to AI-funded UBI.

Thank goodness I was raised where etc. I was; feel like I have a handle on it.
