Rev, for future reference, were nicknames allowed or not? I've got one that's technically a nickname, not the character's actual name.

Tough for me to decide without seeing it. I would think if people always/usually address the character that way, then maybe? I did add "Bronson" even though that was not his real legal name, because he called himself that and in fact made a big deal out of it. Post it and we'll talk it through.

well it's HUDSON HAWK. real name 'Eddie Hawk' apparently

AI isn't exactly under control of its 'owners'. It's entirely possible this is a rogue thing, or that if not directed at a specific target they just randomly review movies? Anyway, I am just guessing here.

how long till we have a movie that's entirely generated by AI with no human prompting, is then uploaded to streaming services by AI, and is then listed on IMDb by AI, and gets a bunch of AI reviews submitted for it? 

I'm surprised it hasn't happened already. The tech is there for it.

Weird News Stories / Florida carhop arrested for in...

Last post by sprite75 - Today at 08:20:58 AM

Florida man had to share something with the world.

A Florida restaurant worker was arrested yesterday for indecent exposure after he walked up to a woman's vehicle "while serving her food with his penis exposed through his zipper," according to a court affidavit.

Investigators say Artavian Crumity, a 25-year-old ex-con, was working as a carhop at a Steak 'n Shake in Largo when he made the off-menu delivery. "Video surveillance at the location displays the incident as stated by the victim," police reported.

Arrested for exposure of sexual organs, Crumity was booked into the county jail on the misdemeanor count. He was subsequently released from custody upon posting $1000 bond, and has been ordered by a judge to stay away from the Steak 'n Shake.

In 2020, Steak 'n Shake--which has about 400 restaurants--revived its carhop service in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Just like in "Happy Days" and "American Graffiti," carhops at select locations deliver grub on a tray that attached to a guest's open car window.

Maybe a fan-based AI? It's not that hard to build one. or maybe it's a test run for a later campaign, work out the bugs on older movies no one pays attention to, making sure you can fool IMDb's defenses, before deploying later to boost a new movie?

Told Kristi the other day that while we don't know how long we have left together (hell, does anyone? After all we aren't promised anything other than a beginning and an end, not how long we get between the two), that even if it was just one day, that it has all been worth it. I still feel like, despite everything that Iam winning at life, as much as it is possible to do so.

A magnificent attitude.
