  • So, apparently, names are the new villains in the world of web systems. Who knew that something as simple as a name could throw a wrench in the gears of our supposedly reliable digital utopia? It seems like the designers aimed for simplicity but forgot that not everyone is “John Doe.” You know, the “odd man out” who decides to input their name as “Lord Fluffykins of the Grand Feline Empire.”

    I guess when creating web systems for the everyday person, they really should have included a disclaimer: “Not responsible for names that break systems.” But hey, at least we’re keeping the tech industry on their toes, right? Let’s just hope the next update includes a “name filter” – because who wouldn

  • Virtuos confirms it's laying off 270 workers across Asia and Europe. Apparently, 'adapting for the future of game development' now includes a massive game of musical chairs, where the music stops for nearly 300 employees. Who knew that the secret to progress was trimming the workforce? Maybe they’re just trying to level up their corporate strategy—one layoff at a time. Guess we’ll find out if this is the new meta for “future-proofing” or just a glitch in the system. But hey, at least the remaining team gets to embrace that sweet, sweet job security… for now.

  • Plastic Software has just released Plasticity 2025.2. It includes some new features, like physical materials and HDRI environments, which are supposed to be exciting, I guess. Not sure how much this changes things, but it’s there if you want to check it out. Anyway, it’s another update, and I’m not really feeling the hype.

  • It's time to call out the glaring flaws in the so-called "Latest Showreel" by the Compagnie Générale des Effets Visuels (CGEV). They tout their projects like a peacock showing off its feathers, but let's be honest: this is just a facade. The latest compilation, which includes work from films such as "The Substance," "Survivre," "Monsieur Aznavour," "Le Salaire de la Peur," and more, is nothing short of a desperate attempt to mask their shortcomings in the visual effects industry.

    First off, what are they thinking with the title "Mise à jour de showreel"? This isn't an update; it's a cry for help! The industry is moving at lightning speed, and CGEV seems to be stuck in the past, clinging to projects that are as outdated as a floppy disk. The world of visual effects is about innovation and pushing boundaries, yet here we have a company content with showcasing work that barely scratches the surface of creativity.

    And let’s talk about "Le Salaire de la Peur." If this is their crown jewel, then they are in serious trouble. The effects look amateurish at best, and it raises the question: are they even using the right technology? In an age where CGI can create stunning visuals that leave you breathless, CGEV’s work feels like a bad remnant of the early 2000s. It’s embarrassing to think that they believe this is good enough to represent their brand.

    Alain Carsoux, the director, needs to take a long, hard look in the mirror. Is he satisfied with this mediocrity? Because the rest of us definitely aren’t. The lack of originality and innovation in these projects is infuriating. Instead of pushing the envelope, they're settling for the bare minimum, and that’s an insult to both their talent and their audience.

    The sad reality is that CGEV is not alone in this trend. The entire industry seems to be plagued by a lack of ambition. They’re so focused on keeping the lights on that they’ve forgotten why they got into this business in the first place. It’s about passion, creativity, and daring to take risks. "Young Woman and the Sea" could have been a ground-breaking project, but instead, it’s just another forgettable title in an already saturated market.

    We need to demand more from these companies. We deserve visual effects that inspire, challenge, and captivate. CGEV needs to get its act together and start investing in real talent and cutting-edge technology. No more excuses! The audience is tired of being served mediocrity wrapped in flashy marketing. If they want to compete in the visual effects arena, they better step up their game or face the consequences of being forgotten.

    Let’s stop accepting subpar work from companies that should know better. The time for complacency is over. We need to hold CGEV accountable for their lack of innovation and creativity. If they continue down this path, they’ll be left behind in a world that demands so much more.

  • In a world where smartphones have become extensions of our very beings, it seems only fitting that the latest buzz is about none other than the Trump Mobile and its dazzling Gold T1 smartphone. Yes, you heard that right – a phone that’s as golden as its namesake’s aspirations and, arguably, just as inflated!

    Let’s dive into the nine *urgent* questions we all have about this technological marvel. First on the list: Is it true that the Trump Mobile can only connect to social media platforms that feature a certain orange-tinted filter? Because if it doesn’t, what’s the point, really? We all know that a phone’s worth is measured by its ability to curate the perfect image, preferably one that makes the user look like a billion bucks—just like the former president himself.

    And while we’re on the topic of money, can we talk about the Gold T1’s price tag? Rumor has it that it’s priced like a luxury yacht, but comes with the battery life of a damp sponge. A perfect combo for those who wish to flaunt their wealth while simultaneously being unable to scroll through their Twitter feed without a panic attack when the battery drops to 1%.

    Now, let’s not forget about the *data plan*. Is it true that the plan includes unlimited access to news outlets that only cover “the best” headlines? Because if I can’t get my daily dose of “Trump is the best” articles, then what’s the point of having a phone that’s practically a golden trophy? I can just see the commercials now: “Get your Trump Mobile and never miss an opportunity to revel in your own glory!”

    Furthermore, what about the customer service? One can only imagine calling for assistance and getting a voicemail that says, “We’re busy making America great again, please leave a message after the beep.” If you’re lucky, you might get a callback… in a week, or perhaps never. After all, who needs help when you have a phone that’s practically an icon of success?

    Let’s also discuss the design. Is it true that the Gold T1 comes with a built-in mirror so you can admire yourself while pretending to check your messages? Because nothing screams “I’m important” like a smartphone that encourages narcissism at every glance.

    And what about the camera? Will it have a special feature that automatically enhances your selfies to ensure you look as good as the carefully curated versions of yourself? I mean, we can’t have anything less than perfection when it comes to our online personas, can we?

    In conclusion, while the Trump Mobile and Gold T1 smartphone might promise a new era of connectivity and self-admiration, one can only wonder if it’s all a glittery façade hiding a less-than-stellar user experience. But hey, for those who’ve always dreamt of owning a piece of tech that’s as bold and brash as its namesake, this might just be the device for you!

  • In the shadows of a world that seems to have forgotten me, I find myself reflecting on the haunting image of Donald Trump, the martyr who enters history with a face stained by struggle. This image, where he raises his fist, shouting “I am alive, fight for me!” resonates deep within my soul, as I too feel the weight of a battle fought in silence.

    Each day, I awaken to a reality that feels increasingly isolating, a cacophony of voices drowning out my own. Like Trump, I stand amidst the chaos, yearning for recognition, for some semblance of belonging. His bloodied visage, a symbol of defiance, mirrors my own wounds—unseen, unacknowledged. The world rushes past, busy with its narratives, while I linger in the echoes of my solitude.

    Amidst the noise, I am reminded of my own struggles, my own fight to be seen and heard. The image of Trump, once a figure of controversy, now appears as a tragic hero to those who believe in his cause. But what of those of us fighting our personal battles, who find ourselves trapped in the shadows? Where is our anthem of resilience? Where is our history being carved?

    I feel the piercing sting of betrayal as I navigate through relationships that feel more like ghosts than connections. Friends fade into the background, their lives moving forward while I remain tethered to a past that haunts me. As I watch the world celebrate moments of triumph and unity, my heart aches with the knowledge that I am left behind, like a forgotten footnote in a story that no longer includes me.

    There’s a certain pain that comes with this realization, a deep-seated loneliness that wraps around me like a shroud. Each moment of joy I witness in others feels like a dagger to my heart, a reminder of the warmth I long for but cannot touch. I am an outsider looking in, yearning for the camaraderie that seems so easily accessible to others.

    In the end, perhaps we are all just martyrs in our own right—fighting battles that may never be recognized, enduring pain that may never find an audience. As I sit here, reflecting on the image of a man who has become a symbol of resilience amidst adversity, I am reminded that my voice, too, has the power to resonate. I will not let my story fade into obscurity; I will fight for my place in this world, even if it feels like an uphill battle.

    For those who feel as I do, remember: we are not alone. Our struggles may be silent, but they matter. We are alive, and we will continue to fight.
