Furiosa was fine. In a vacuum, it was actually pretty good, but in being a sequel to Fury Road it can’t shake comparisons.

I figure that it looking so visually similar to Fury Road in trailers made a lot of people ask themselves why even bother watching it when they’d already seen Fury Road. The title including “A Mad Max Saga” is clunky and throws up big vibes of this being a tack on story (which it is), which really doesn’t create the kind of hype wave needed to reach out to people who are already cynical about going to a theater.

The word of mouth all seems to start with “Well it wasn’t as good as Fury Road, but…” which isn’t going to put a fire under the seats of undecided people.

$6000? I guess I’ll just buy one.

Did the DNC just forget this when scheduling their convention?

Relying on the goodwill of republicans to make an exception seems like a poor strategy. This is an unforced error that could have been avoided.

This is a bad situation for her. I am genuinely curious under what standing she is suing. Thinking it through, this seems like a situation where the laws might not have caught up to what is happening. I hope she gets some changes out of this, but I am really curious on the legal mechanics of how that might happen.

I presume at that point the store would just have security walk out the person wearing the hat.

A tangent to explore. I though am curious how the current case under the current laws is expecting to go forward.

If the AI is flagging faces and immediately alerting employees, it is likely also going to throw up a flag for abnormal interference like that. Or if it doesn’t do it now, it is a feature that could be added if such hats become a common enough.

I am waiting to follow the case for updates, because while I hope that the outcome pushes back on AI system like this, I am skeptical of current laws to perceive what is happening as protected class discrimination. I presume in the UK the burden for proving fault in the AI lays on the plaintiff, which is at the heart of if the reason is legitimate in the eyes of the law.

And this is why I’m asking, because I know little about UK law, and am trying to figure out how this is going to move forward. She can sue, now I wonder about the theory that leads to a win. Protected categories is a start, but it feels vague, and I’m curious what the precise angle and evidence brought in will be.

Sawn Off M79 (lemmy.world)

The M79 grenade launcher is a single-shot, shoulder-fired, break open grenade launcher which fires a 40 x 46 mm grenade and first appeared during the Vietnam War. Because of its distinctive firing sound, it earned the nicknames of “Thumper”, “Thump-Gun” or “Blooper” among American soldiers; Australian units referred...

Just HEDP, smoke, and chalk.

What nation? To me “HD” means mustard gas, and that doesn’t sound right.

Any idea what the round designation is? I have never come across an HDHE designated 40mm in person, and can’t find any examples online.

Thanks. I’ve been working away at other parts of him, really trying to get a unified look to the reflections.

He’s a great sculpt. All of these Space Hulk terminators are so over the top.
