:wub: Bonnie Wright (Ginny)

Of course, I always loved Ginny from the very first scene she was in in the books, but whoever made that casting call is brilliant.

And best yet, she'll be making a much bigger appearance in this movie and the final movie.

That is one of the WORST teasers I've ever seen. Seriously, I mean I know people are really

looking forward to the movie (I am I know that much) but a 23 second trailer with one line of dialog that doesn't

really do anything but...well nothing? Bleh.

But then again, it's just a "teaser" so what should I expect yeah? :|

I just looked at imdb, and they are splitting up the deadly hallows into two parts. I guess this is good thing and not squeezing the story any further.

... except for the fact that, of all of the movies so far, Deathly Hallows has the most stuff that could be just cut right out, shortened, or would just happen to *be* short when shown visually rather than described. A whole lot of the Deathly Hallows is Harry and the gang sitting around and camping out, and all of that stuff could be reduced to a simple time-lapse sort of scene. It could very easily be made into one movie.

As compared with something like The Goblet of Fire, where something as huge as the Quiddich world cup is reduced to a single sentence ("Let the game begin!") and then cut to the after party. Even little details that play a *huge* part in the overall story, like Dobby's continual returns, were cut out due to time concerns. There are so many things they've torn out for the sake of keeping the movies down to a length they *think* people want, and that'll come back to bite them in the ass when it's time to write the script for the last movie(s).

It's funny how the books keep growing longer and longer, up until the 6th, but the movies actually get shorter. They've lost J.K. Rowling's blessing entirely by now (she was heavily involved with the first movie, and actually liked it due to the near perfect translation from book to movie). Now they want to split the last movie into two in order to make sure they don't have to leave anything out? When have they cared about that in the past? I'm sure that the decision was made mostly because two movies = two ticket purchases. They can double their money and prolong their paychecks.

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • PowerToys is getting a new window management utility

      By matthiew · Posted

      When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
