Sincerely, what did you expect? I mean, obviously it's hyped right now, but let's be real - AI is not going to go away anymore.

I don't want to poop on your well phrased comment, because I do agree.

But all I can think is "Oh nooooo! Poor Disney! Someone should give the multi billion dollar company a hug!"

So on topic of the original article:

Nobody is watching the Star Wars sequel trilogy — and that's a problem

Can anybody else who read the article explain to me what "the problem" is? Because I don't see it.

To me it seems more like a light at the end of the tunnel - that maybe we'll get out of the nostalgia fad (and probably straight into the next fad).

Boomers. As in, people born in the babyboom after the second World War.

You're saying you know more eighty year olds that aren't grandparents, than those that are?

I guess that could be true. But it just goes to show that n=1 is a terrible sample size.

Yeah, given everything that's come out, I don't even know what star wars fan would mean nowadays, but I'd be pretty insulted if someone did call me one.

I dunno, I was fine with GNU Image Manipulation Program.

I guess his flavour of tainment just doesn't jam well with me. Like I said, it's not the subject matter, but the content just feels needlessly padded. Compare this to videos by Tom Scott, CGP Grey, Matt Parker, Steve Mould, etc. Those videos are far more dense with content It reminds me of how mythbusters gets so much better once you take out the narrator and the endless recaps..

Regarding clickbait - to me a title this one is just another symptom of that disregard for the viewers time. Being coy and mysterious about the subject matter to lure people in. And yeah, hat's probably why it works.

I agree that the production values are incredibly high. But I just can't stand being treated like a simpleton who needs drama to be tricked into watching videos, it feels very patronising.

I feel the same way. I feel like I would love his subject matters he picks, but he's being so disrespectful of the viewers time that I can't stand it. Just the clickbait title alone is enough to put me off.

I was gonna post a list of other things that happened on July 9 2025, but it was all kinda depressing.

The post ended with "stay tuned". Do you have any update for us, OP?

To me it reads like "I'm going to move abroad if x wins the elections."

Actions speak louder than words, but even then I don't really care what you do in your personal life. Wake me if you need help or have something useful to share.

I think it's more useful to take their points at their own merit, rather than factor in who said it. Who cares if they said they were leaving, or if they torture puppies in their spare time. There's no need to make it personal - feedback is feedback. IMHO a user shouldn't have to know about federation or how it works - if lemmy wants widespread adoption, tackling these issues will help.

Does it allow differentiating between dependencies and dev dependencies though? I couldn't gather that from the article.
