Sometimes we have those little epiphanies in the shower.. sometimes they come from other places. This is a home for those epiphanies.

Do techbros that complain on the Fediverse about people hating on AI realize it isn't just here that hates AI? (sopuli.xyz)

Everyone pretty much hates it, its just here is one of the few places online where money and stupidity can't be waved around frantically to hide that.

Outside of self-selected back-patting subforums, none of them think computer animation is what ruined Wish. Nobody gets mad about the special effects that work. Not anymore. That kneejerk response has vanished, even though the tech is more common than ever.

Absolute opposition used to be so widespread and vocal that it felt universal. Now nobody really gives a shit.

my parents were against animation and it felt unfair to me growing up that i couldnt watch animated shows :(

Right, any use of "nobody" has an implicit asterisk over the fact some people are nuts.
