I finished the season 2 days ago or so, very good and that ending, solid.   Season 2 will be interesting to say the least.  The show has already made a few changes from the comic, for the best I think.

Homelander looks like Bradly cooper and Michael Fassbender had a child.

At first I couldn't place him and then it finally hit me by the second episode that it's the main actor from Banshee, which is another show I really liked.

What's  awesome for 1 person can be bollocks for another.

Eh. I don't know if I would call it bollocks but I just felt like I didn't really care about any of the characters Except for, weirdly, Maeva. Out of all the characters good or bad she appeared to be the only one who regrets her actions and comes across as genuinely broken and conflicted and that she isn't happy with the way things are going.

 

I hated pretty much every other character in the show. They all seemed so fake and their motivations flimsy.

Having never watched that show before that entire fight scene makes no god damn sense. Sure it's spectacular but that dude is fighting no one after having an axe stuck clear through his color bone and probably into his lung and any number of arteries and veins.

 

I'm beginning to think modern tv just isn't for me.

All I see is Paul Rudd. No idea, but can't get it out of my head.

 

I like the show, I have one episode left. It does drag in the middle, nothing really happens. The last 2 episodes have been decent. Overall I'd definitely say I like the show but I'd doubt I'd ever watch Season 1 again.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models

      By zikalify · Posted

      UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.

      I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
