It’s likely the artist behind that ECCC table paid at least $450 for the table $500-700 for lodging $150 (+) for food/drink $300+ for merch. The financial risk is real! Be nice to the creators behind the table and even if you don’t got the $$ to spare, a kind word goes a long way.

Shane McGowan died in mortal combat with Henry Kissinger this morning. Having given battle against the vile shade for seven days and seven nights, such was the fury of his final blow that it rent his beating heart in two with its delivery. We will sing of his tragic victory for a thousand years

YOU THERE, BOY! WHAT DAY IS IT??

I made a long, long comic about AI and my toddler. It's a repudiation of techno-solipsism and it’s in The New Yorker. Is my toddler a stochastic parrot?

i talk a lot of crap about the internet, but then you get an answer for a deeply random Trek ask within an hour of asking

@beaucoupkevin.com thanks for the assist dude 🖖

very random question but does anyone have a copy of the star trek ships of the line calendar from 2012? i've had weirder questions answered, so i figured i'd give this a whirl...

Just a reminder :) Jpeg loses fidelity and is correct for online publication only Tiff does not lose fidelity but reads poorly on web browsers so it is correct for print only RGB is for online, CMYK is for print Highly saturated and luminous greens/cyan do not print.
