  • Comic Book Shops are NEVER Making a Comeback, Sorry.

    Comic Book Shops are NEVER Making a Comeback, Sorry.
    Jun 1 2024
    Comic shops are likely going the way of shopping malls, arcades and soon, movie theaters. Another major comic book retailer in Philadelphia is closing its doors, possibly forever. In fact, they’ve been EVICTED after almost 50 years in business because they can’t pay their rent. Fat Jack’s Comicrypt joins dozens of other major metropolitan retailers packing it in after DECADES in business. No, there is no coming back from this. We’ll never have a thriving comic shop ecosystem like we did before the pandemic. Comics will go on, but comic shops as an institution are basically over. Then we talk about how Marvel Comics might be looking to outsource comics after all these decades.

    Google Hurt ITSELF in Its Confusion!

    Google has unveiled AI search with Gemini, and beyond the LAUGHABLE search results... it’s helped end several websites by not linking out to them. The thing is that Google is cutting off a revenue stream for ITSELF, as these websites do a revenue share with Google via Adsense. But does Google even care at this point? Are they willing to take a short term hit to the bottom line to lock down the internet?

  • Hollywood Killshot?! New Program Makes Entire TV Episodes from Prompts!

    Hollywood Killshot?! New Program Makes Entire TV Episodes from Prompts!
    Jun 1 2024
    Hollywood as we’ve known it is OVER. A new startup has unveiled Showrunner, which can generate entire episodes of a TV show to order for each viewer. Yes, we’re getting closer and closer to the Holodeck from Star Trek. This will make "linear" and "prerecorded" content look absolutely antiquated in a few decades. The animation industry, in particular, is going to get hit really hard by this, as evidenced by an entirely AI-generated episode of South Park.
