  • The antenna were what sold the 2001 for me. That and Warburton. I don’t know that I’ve ever seen anything with Warburton in it that I didn’t like. But between him and those damn animatronic antenna. Even though he didn’t have the proper cowl Etc it was still very enjoyable. The fox show was definitely a lot campier and low budget. But that sort of worked for it in a way. While they had a lot of star cameos throughout the short run. Just some of the basic scenarios and situations were hilarious. Like the tick fighting the Red Scare in an elevator while Jimmy Carter watched on. But then I’m also an older viewer so probably your mileage could vary.

    Unfortunately edland didn’t have the full rights to all the characters. So each show is really its own experience. But I think at least some Nostalgia puts the 2001 a little bit out ahead of the Amazon reboot. Even though I could easily recommend it.




  • Then I hope to see you out in the next few days trimming the grass with tweezers. So we can all get a good chuckle. Take a lesson from the luddites. They didn’t destroy the Looms because they hated the looms. They destroyed the Looms because the owners sought to cut them out.

    A tool is simply a tool. It isn’t good or bad. It’s fashy Tech Bros out for a quick buck that make it bad. Be mad at them. Not the tools. AI isn’t going to make it impossible or undesirable for us to create as we always have. Just the fash.

    addendum Your value as a human shouldn’t be how useful your art is to someone else. Your art is valuable even if you’re the only one that appreciates it. And only fascists and other authoritarians will impeded your ability to create it. I for one welcome the day we see creations realized that couldn’t/wouldn’t have been realized other ways. Animations etc accelerated with better AI tweening algorithms etc. Allowing us to see truly unique even singular visions we wouldn’t have seen otherwise for example. Fuck the slop.

    Currently it really isn’t up for daily driving for anyone outside developers perhaps. It is getting better. But getting ahold of even a reasonably recent Firefox compile for it is tricky for the average user last I saw. It’s very nostalgic and very snappy on older hardware for sure. I putter around on it sometimes. But I always end up back in Linux. Though I’m still glad Haiku and React exist and wish them more success.
