In my case I think it would be Arnold Schwarzenegger. Grew up watching his movies, the guy is still an icon.

Definitely agree, the promotion was so bad, such a missed opportunity.

Yes, I would like a sequel too, but maybe it was lightning in a bottle and they wouldn't be able to recreate such a cool movie.

Another one is Everything Everywhere All at Once.

Interesting approach to the multiverse theme, solid acting (especially from actors having to play different characters), and interesting scenario that went beyond the multiverse idea to address other subjects.

I'm going to start with Dungeons & Dragons: Honor among Thieves.

Very solid fantasy adventure movie. Good acting, believable world, coherent tone during the whole thing, good cinematography.

It's a shame it was kind of a failure box office wise, it was really refreshing.

Interesting, as an American why did you choose feddit.de?

Big Galaxy S24 leak reveals Samsung's strategy against Google's Pixel phone (www.androidcentral.com)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/10756719

Quoting the tl;dr in the linked article:

  • Samsung could be stepping up its game by offering seven years of major Android updates for the Galaxy S24 series, and the generous update policy might extend to other Galaxy flagships.

  • The Galaxy S24 series might also introduce charges for AI features like Live Translate and Pixel-like photo editing tools after 2025.

  • There's speculation that users may need to sign in to their Samsung accounts for certain AI functionalities.

We've been 'close' to achieving fusion power for 50 years. When will it actually happen? (www.space.com)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/10745664

Nuclear fusion power was supposed to be a dream come true. As soon as we discovered that you could smash little atoms together to make bigger atoms and release a small amount of energy in the process, scientists around the world realized the implications of this new bit of physics knowledge. Some wanted to turn it into weapons, but others wanted to develop it into a clean, efficient, inexhaustible supply of electrical energy.

But it turns out that fusion power is … hard. Really hard. Really complicated. Full of unexpected pitfalls and traps. We've been trying to build fusion generators for three-quarters of a century, and we've made a lot of progress — enormous, groundbreaking, horizon-expanding progress. But we're not there yet. Fusion power has been one of those things that's been "only 20 years away" for about 50 years now.

The primary challenge is that while it's relatively straightforward to make fusion happen — we did it all the time with thermonuclear weapons — it's much more difficult to make the reaction slow and controlled while extracting useful energy from it.
