I don't know, pointing to his (ultra-)nationalism doesn't seem like a pro-Russian narrative based on the variety of sources and him dropping it over the years seems more like a play to gain more mainstream support. I don't know if he's a Western asset or not, but I really liked his team's effort of flying drones over Putin's secretive compound and him going to Russia, knowing what would be waiting for him was ballsy as fuck. Contrary to what a lot of people here seem to automatically assume is that a lot of people who don't buy the NATO Ukraine narrative aren't fans of Putin or Russian imperialism either.
I should've added a smiley face myself, sorry. I thought you were joking.
Oh, thanks, I didn't know that. I'm not much into the animated stuff.
On first glance it could've been from Picard S03 which had a similar aesthetic that didn't work for me. Too clean, too polished, too much video game.
I definitely prefer the darker version, it seems a lot less artificial. To me, the brighter ship looks rendered, as if I was looking at a video games' screenshot.
An insight that's coming a couple of years too late though.
I can't recommend the Google TV/Chromecast if you have to interact with multiple apps or plan on using the Discover screen or search. The remote is finicky and feels cheap and the device itself is totally underpowered for Google TV. Its Amlogic SoC is slow as fuck and often drops frames and the 2GB of memory are barely enough to keep the bloated interface in memory while the storage is often full even after just installing a few apps. It has gotten a bit better after even Google had to admit that performance was abysmal but the optimizations just fixed the most obvious shortcomings.
I have sinced unsubscribed from all streaming services and just rely on the put.io app on Google TV to handle my media consumption needs and it is good enough for that. So if you just need the Stremio app (which I haven't used myself) to access local content, you should be fine. I never saw it struggle with 4k HDR content nor did I encounter A/V sync issues.
And I'm talking about desensitized comments almost cheering for and ridiculing the death of a Russian journalist (or evil propagandis, which makes it a-ok). Journalists know what they're signing up for when reporting out of war zones. It happens.
You still don't need to fucking be glib about it. That's all. I'm out of this discussion. You're all lost.
Your basically proving my point, I rest my case.
I was talking about the way they were treated, not which refugee is the better worker drone.
It's only bad when China does it.
