Does the Louvre actively refuse all attempts to retrieve original works and tell the requestors the fuck off the way the British Museum does?
From my understanding that’s more of a British-specific problem, not most museums in general.

Russia has been pretty reliable for ISS transit ever since they launched the first module for it back in 1998. Despite political bluster, they’ve followed through when needed. Including after we unilaterally decided to decommission to Shuttle with no replacement, leaving Soyuz as the only crew transit option available at all.


Give it time. Its a slow recipe, but I trust the French to follow through if its a protest.


Probably something similar to all the Alex Jones lawsuits. Families disagreeing with each other about how to go about the lawsuit or the compensation they’re going for, so filing suit separately.


Because the family sued, and won. That’s how lawsuits work.
There are other lawsuits from other familie still going through the process. And you can be sure they’ll cite this trial and decision as evidence.
And elsewhere recently a judge dismissed the criminal prosecution for Boeing’s willful negligence related to these deaths, so civil penalties is all they’re going to see for corporate sanctioned manslaughter/murder.


Let me guess, they shot it down.
… read the article. Yeah, they shot it down.
That is 100% what every country needs to be doing. These aren’t mistakes.


Depends on who he talked to last. Like every other time. It’s all just manipulation of the Presidency. Both foreign and domestic.


I’m inclined to say that her vote wasn’t cast in time, even though it wasn’t her fault.
I’d say the exact opposite. The vote was on April 28th, she mailed her ballot on April 5th and it was returned to her on May 2nd.
She mailed her ballot in 23 days ahead of time. That is more than enough time to ensure your vote will be counted. There’s zero reason to expect your ballot to not be received and counted using the pre-printed label or for it be returned to you more than 3 weeks later.
This isn’t a case of someone sending it a day or two before and standard processing taking it past a deadline.


Not sure why you are being downvoted for this
The downvotes are probably because they’re just stating something obvious. No shit, bad looking CGI looks bad, that doesn’t mean the actual CGI itself is necessarily bad. Small things like wrong lighting can make otherwise great CGI look terrible. The reasons DO matter, even if the average person may not really care and just has the takeaway of “bad CGI”.
Posting that type of response is not actually providing anything to the discussion, it’s a useless comment that provides no value. Not all comments and opinions are valid or constructive. The voting system is not really for agree/disagree, but whether a post adds to the discussion.


I’d argue it matters quite a bit. It shows producers, and by extension a studio, that can’t manage production effectively, and that almost always extends to the rest of the movie. “Bad” CG is rarely the only issue with those movies, it’s just what you remember most since movies in general require the suspension of disbelief and that pulls you right out of it.


And often that’s not because the CGI itself is bad quality, but because the effects team was asked to do the impossible with half the tools necessary. The “fix it in post” mentality.
Even small things like having reference lighting examples from the set can be the difference between an okay outcome and something almost imperceptible.


There’s a lot of other shorr from content. There’s a lot that’s just quick highlights of longer form stuff for instance.
My YouTube Shorts algorithm doesn’t have any of that type of shit in it. Because that’s not the type of stuff that I watch, that’s not the stuff it recommends to be either.
If you’re using a new or privacy focused web profile, it’s going to show a lot of random things because it has no idea what you would want.


One doesn’t prevent the other. Congress can do more than one fucking thing at a time, despite what they try to make us believe with this type of bullshit.


No, I’m demanding everyone involved be held responsible regardless of the political party, as I said in my comment. But apparently people here seem to not like that idea based on the downvotes.


I mean, yeah in this case that seems to be indicated by the evidence.
I get downvotes yet the responses are agreeing with what I said.
I can only assume that because I called out the Dems for bullshit politicas releasing only certain names and protecting their own, people are assuming I’m trying to make the opposite claim, yet the next 2 sentences prove otherwise.
So they’re not actually reading and comprehending the comment, they’re just reacting to their own assumption of what the rest of my comment must be in their head.
That certainly seems to indicate that people have terrible reading comprehension, vote, and comment without actually reading the comments fully.
So you tell me… if they’re agreeing with my comments, then why the downvotes if not a lack of reading comprehension and impulse control on social media?


Not surprising that people here have terrible reading comprehension and just vote and post knee jerk reactions based on their biases just like everywhere else. Social media was a mistake across the board. It’ll be the downfall of our society.


That’s exactly what I said, idiot.
I can only think that you had a knee-jerk reaction assuming my initial word choice meant something that it clearly didn’t. That reaction is a large part of the problem with online discourse getting nowhere and everyone arguing all the time. You’re arguing with people agreeing with you for no fucking reason because you’re not actually stopping to understand the comments before responding.


Cool, now start naming the Dems as well. This isn’t a political issue. Everyone related to this shit needs to be held accountable.


It is a war crime as defined by the International Court. You don’t have to be in a formal war to commit a war crime.
Ukraine did not have the infrastructure at the time to be able to even safely store the nuclear weapons they had. The nukes weren’t going to stay either way at the time.
