Sometimes the issue you highlight is worth losing some things.

In terms of anime fansubs, it's normally just great folks in the community. Some got hired by studios. But the studio is meant to provide the subs.

They're in the subheadings, so I don't actually know.

I don't wanna say goodbye to Cavill, but am looking forward to this new Supes too.

Yeah, but to be fair. I look forward to all the films. Except the Ant-Man films and yet when I do eventually watch them, I enjoy them. Fantastic 4 has the potential to be the first one I don't gel with, but that's just PTSD from all the previous iterations. I take it you're excited?

So I really enjoyed this. I enjoyed Captain America too, but this was just objectively better. Good work Marvel.

First off let me say, thanks for having this conversation, I'm enjoying it.

Educational holidays are a concession and would have to be tested. So holiday goers would have to show they're attending lectures and visiting sites for the bulk of their visit. I honestly haven't fleshed out the idea as I just came up with it.

But to talk about tourism, I think it was Prague that was able to showcase just how damaging tourism truly is. The city centre has miniscule local residency due to properties being brought up to lease as Airbnbs. With businesses attempting to target tourists, prices of food and travel increased and you know what didn't go up wages. So people were forced to move out of the city and commute in just to serve tourists things they can't afford. During tourist season, it's vibrant and busy, off-season it's a ghost town. The citizens aren't benefiting, it's exactly the opposite. Tourism is just imperialism flexing its muscles.

The thing is tourism does more damage than good, hence saying frig recreational flights. If people are determined to travel, make them sign up to educational holidays.

It's a trend for NAS at the moment. They're all advertising themselves as AI.

That's fair. I would like to see the current model in Silicon Valley come to end so teams are allowed to iterate and polish and there's room for genuine innovation rather than chasing numbers. Even this release of Android 16 was only put out to appease shareholders before the release of the Pixel 10 rather than to ship anything.

Don't jinx it
