Seeing this... this is what really old people must feel like when they begin any kind of serious cognitive decline. The world starts looking strange, familiar but somehow wrong, and everyone just acts like this is normal. Things used to make sense, but now everything seems stupid and devoid of meaning and context.

I get that feeling all the time now, to the point where I honestly ask myself if I’m personally in cognitive decline.

For instance, in the next top level comment after yours someone misspelled the subject of their sentence as “get” (presumably instead of “they”) and I stumbled over the sentence a couple of times before understanding that “get” shouldn’t be in there at all. No one else acknowledges it, so I ask myself several times “I didn’t misread this, it’s incorrect right? Is it me?”

Between AI images, rampant misspellings, understandable ESL snafus, and people just saying full blown gibberish or bizarre political views, I’m hit with something perplexing about once per minute of reading, which has me really considering my mental health.

Everyone has to act like it's normal or else the person with cognitive decline can become very destructive very quickly.

The article is wrong that Shatner never wore a tie in Trek.

And not to mention Wrath of Khan:

Oh shit. It took multiple pictures for me to realize that was Shatner.

I made a poster for the m4 fan edit of the hobbit for myself in gimp in an hour and it looked better than this slop.

How is it? Where can we get it? I only saw the first one and it was steaming pile of shit.

[-] CubitOom@infosec.pub 3 points 8 hours ago

The 3 hobbit films certainly were, the m4 edit makes it a lot more watchable.

[-] schipelblorp@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 hours ago

I'm dumb. How do I watch (preferably d/l?)?

Excited for this!

Edit: To prove my original point, this was intitially a reply-to-self.

I would use a torrent, and a VPN, and a DNS that doesn't track.

A good source for this info can be found here. https://wiki.dbzer0.com/piracy/megathread/

The links for the torrent are on the page I linked.

If only there was some, perhaps bespoke, piece of art with which one could present or advertise a movie to potential viewers...

[-] Kirk@startrek.website 19 points 15 hours ago

This is hilarious, why didn't get just use the many existing original posters?

[-] Vittelius@feddit.org 3 points 11 hours ago

Probably because of personalisation. I assume the idea is to eventually present you a hyper targeted advertismebt of a poster (if they aren't already).

[-] Kirk@startrek.website 1 points 10 hours ago

Good point! It's probably some weird A/B testing.

[-] rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

Or, if they just wanted to get a shot of Kirk from this movie, they could screenshot any of the tens of thousands of frames of him from that very movie, which they own and for which they are making the thumbnail.

GENESIS PLANET?!?

[-] makyo@lemmy.world 12 points 15 hours ago

I feel like this is malicious compliance on the part of the designer they asked to do this

[-] Lumidaub@feddit.org 12 points 15 hours ago

That Wrath of Khan ought to have Ricardo Montalban as THE Khan Noonian Singh.
