I've cared about animated works, and I still care a little bit about the product/franchise/etc.. I have never cared about the specifics of the people behind the microphones, or the artist drawing it or using CGI/CAD to create it. The "human factor" is totally unimportant to me, only the end product.

Why should the government step in for a private business? Especially if it's one that can be done better and more effectively without humans in the loop? Other jobs get automated - weavers, construction workers, and more. We shouldn't surrender to Luddism.
Cool. If the AI voices are an acceptable quality, cheaper for production, and faster to implement, then I'm in favor. I'm not super attached to a person or a specific voice in new animation or voice-acted media. Reducing costs and speed of media creation is a good thing.
Oh thank goodness. The big subs, or at least some of them, will get back to business as usual.
The novel and the first movie are based on actual events that happened down the Jersey shore with a great white shark. Why would you regret telling something that's one step off reality? You regret telling people to actually pay attention to shark warnings and be aware of them? Or bringing attention to the very real issue of coastal predators? I just don't see the cause for regret.
A Microblog is a Mastodon toot or a Twitter tweet.
A Post is a Lemmy post or a Reddit post.
A Thread is a Post and the comments which respond to it.
Hope that helps!
Never heard of this. How does it work compared to Pj64?
But aren't they a sanctuary city? Doesn't this go against that?
I've watched too much sci-fi. So the things that stick with me are almost all the memetic ones
"Be excellent to each other!" - Bill & Ted
This is one of the best philosophies out there. It's simple, it's understandable, and it's mostly unambiguous.
"I have one job on this damn ship, it may be stupid, but I'm gonna do it!" - Galaxy Quest
Having been the person with the "stupid but essential" job, at work and socially, it's important to stand up for yourself. Whatever you do, it's your job, and you should do it, regardless of what others think.
"I! WANT! ROOM SERVICE!" - Johnny Mnemonic
This is from a man at the end of his rope, who's been put through the grinder and all he wants is his life back. But for me, it's also that he breaks down, loses his temper, and then - most importantly - picks himself up with the help of Jane/Molly.
"A STRANGE GAME. THE ONLY WAY TO WIN IS NOT TO PLAY." - WarGames
The realization of the potential for a no-win situation is kind of crushing. But over time, learning what might not be possible helps you to grow into a stronger person.
Yes, two of them are Keanu. Oh well.
I have to admit, I'm more in agreement with Soran's thought process: Time is the fire in which we burn.
Have you read the Burning Chrome collection and Johnny Mnemonic?
@Simulation6 Amazingly for a weekend, I was up all day, and not busy doing things.
