@raganwald @pluralistic You know, I watch a lot of movies - I watched almost 300 movies last year. I also watch a lot of bad movies for fun. I went to a screening of Cats and I enjoyed myself - there were impromptu audience “burlesque” performances to the music.
I think that would be the only scenario where I could see myself watching this movie - an underground cinema with an audience that is there to mock it.
It needs a double feature with something very anti-fascist like IngloriousBasterds

@raganwald Do I understand this correctly, you will be paid to watch this movie in its entirety?

What are you gonna do? Charge me with standing up?

@raganwald Are you allowed to snore?

@RVLara23 @raganwald No, you won't get the promised $50. OTOH, this is kind of a Trumpish promise, so don't expect the $50 anyway.

@raganwald I predict a vast number of empty seats at many theaters when they show this film.

'Don't the flyer have some pretty specific things to say about leaving your seat during the screening?'
'Quite specific. It it, however, somewhat fuzzier around the subject of holding up big posters with ad hoc slogans on both sides.'

@raganwald a nice dark room, a comfy chair, no loud explosions. Sounds like being paid to have a nap.

I think it's more "paid to attend" this movie. They can't make you watch it.
Bring a book. Better yet a boombox from last century.

@raganwald
does free + 50 bucks mean that they pay you for that? and just 50$? -
The cruelty is the point.
@raganwald at the end of the film you’re handed a $50 QR code for a Trump Bible (cost $100 + $50 shipping and handling - please allow infinite time for delivery)

@raganwald Are these free tickets $50 or is that what you get paid to watch?
I don't get it.

@oblomov @cstross @jwz @lisamelton And then we know how much Google pays Apple yearly since, well... neither 2004, the WHATWG start, nor 2008, the Chrome start, but... did you guess when?
2005.

It's all coincidence until it isn't.
Google's enclosure of the web has over two decades of history, back when their motto was still "Don't be Evil".

@oblomov @cstross @jwz @lisamelton At any rate, Dave Hyatt was a former Mozilla dev who switched to Apple and started Safari, and so this entire thing.
He was also representing Apple at WHATWG from what I understand.
-
@oblomov @cstross @jwz by the way, @lisamelton might have some views.
-
@jens @cstross @jwz yeah, this is also something I tried pointing out on the subsequent rapid expansion of Chrome. Everybody was saying «relax, (the core) is free software». Which matters very little when the only thing that truly matters is who controls the platform. FLOSS is not immune to the dangers of monocultures (or of corporate control for that matter).

@oblomov @cstross @jwz As you will note by some research, in April 2005, so before the publication of WebKit, there was already discontent in the KHTML community in how Apple was developing WebKit as a fork.
How can that be? They complied with the letter, but not the spirit of the GPL. https://web.archive.org/web/20050428230122/http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/view/1001

RE: https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@stefano/115984116493117731
Luckily, many of my clients are intelligent and well-prepared people. Needless to say, that email, before making me laugh, had already made the client laugh. He immediately thought he was dealing with people who were great at marketing but had little technical skill.
I presented my theory on software engineering, but he immediately tore it apart, declaring himself extremely skeptical. In his opinion, it is more likely to be a technique to lower our defenses and then try to sell us "security products" after a "pentest full of flaws". Or simply sheer incompetence.Anyway, their connection hasn't any open ports. So they can pentest anything they want to, as long as they want to.
