The Tau Ceti Petrova line scene would look incredible.

There's no need when it's a lot easier to leach off existing music streaming services. See: https://forum.mobilism.me/viewforum.php?f=1332

In my experience - the Spotify cracks break frequently and require too regular patching to be worthwhile, but other platforms like Deezer tend to be pretty stable.

Stremio is a solution to video content being divided among platforms in a way that music is not, and there platforms being a lot more difficult to leach off of.

It's been four years since UE5. It's not that devs lack the experience using the engine - even Epic can't use it properly - and we're well past the point we're you can just write it off as growing pains. The reality is it's an engine designed to give that AAA style cost effectively to appeal to suits, and last to actually create games that are enjoyable to play.

I fucking hate Unreal Engine 5 so god damn much.

Defenders come in and say the stuttering is an issue of optimization and lay the blame at developers, but fucking Epic can't even fix it. Fortnite has that shit too.

And god that default UE5 look is so fucking ugly. It's going to be the piss filter of this era.

You listen to Shadowheart's story in Baldur's Gate 3 and, since you pass no judgment, fall in love.

Not that different than a lot of the relationships I had when I was young to be honest.

The Forgotten Realms has most of these

Vampire Dragons: https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Vampiric_dragon

Demon Unicorns: https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Black_unicorn

Skeleton Wizards: https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Lich

Fey Werewolves: https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Brokenstone_Vale

The only think I don't have on hand are angel ghosts and lochness mothmen in the Forgotten Realms, though I think you probably could find the former.

In announcing the series, Time Studios President Ben Bitonti said the project provides “a glimpse at what thoughtful, creative, artist-led use of AI can look like—not replacing craft but expanding what’s possible and allowing storytellers to go places they simply couldn’t before.”

Except the whole reason AI can do this is we have gone to this place so many fucking times. There have been thousands upon thousands of works visually depicting the American Revolution which it is copying. It's not a terribly difficult period to film.

they should have turned the gender flipped version into a movie

That was surprisingly good

Just going to work through this, but:

I already got ears, not sure what a tail would add. Seems like it might be inconvenient even. Pass.

I don't need estrogen. If I somehow need it later, it's readily available in forms other than pill. Pass.

I actually like my body hair, it's soft and feels nice when people play with it. Pass.

Look $20 is $20 but come on, pass.

I'd have passed on a more competitive board because the person I want to find me attractive already does, but this is still just broadly useful. Taking this one.

The difference between the best pizza I have ever had and the best pizza I have ever made isn't much in the grand scheme of things. It's not like there isn't a difference, but at it's best it's not exactly a mind blowing meal. Pass.

I was originally really high on water tasting and feeling like my favorite drink until I remember we use water for a lot more than drinking. Can you imagine cooking pasta in your favorite soft drink? Pass.

I can already talk to cats. They sometimes talk to me too. Mostly it's "I want food" and "I want you to open this door". I don't need a pill for this. Pass.

Not having to sleep is potentially such a brutal monkey's paw answer but I'm willing to risk it. Taking this one.

I guess I've got to circle back, and I'm going for master pizza chef. I almost went with $20, but I guess master pizza chef takes pizza from a fun thing I can make sometimes to a potentially marketable skill.

Very cool, though the quality leaves a bit to be desired.

For popularity>0, we got close to all tracks on the platform. The quality is the original OGG Vorbis at 160kbit/s. Metadata was added without reencoding the audio (and an archive of diff files is available to reconstruct the original files from Spotify, as well as a metadata file with original hashes and checksums).

For popularity=0, we got files representing about half the number of listens (either original or a copy with the same ISRC). The audio is reencoded to OGG Opus at 75kbit/s — sounding the same to most people, but noticeable to an expert.

The slop ratio hasn't gotten better from abandoning that format.
