@philoiseversion Translation: "That's a lie. I never said I started modelling when I was 7"

@RobProvince I don't think you can extrapolate the attitude of a nation from a single AI generated video.

I'd expect that author may like Trump, or that they may think that he is entertaining.

@ZhangZhiloong Thanks, just noting that this is for UK resident and for about 6 weeks (end of March -> Mid May 2025)

The worst thing about Pancake Day

@kaigani @Larapic From the outside; web3 looks like a lot of scams that prey on the socially underdeveloped and has introduced more problems than it solves.

Most copy I can find on it seems to obfuscate and complicate fairly simple processes to make them seem revolutionary.

[chris carter @chrishcarter]

@fergbrennanTD Yea, very naive take. It seems the author has a shallow understanding of the animation industry at best, and lots of their numbers are totally unreferenced.

I can definitely see AI expediting specific tasks, but I think it's a very long way before taking peoples jobs.

@jonnycope @JonathanLord @WillForster Can you share sources on the success of fracking? Many countries have also banned it.

The potential benefits to the UK in terms of energy cost are likely negligible as we are part of the European energy market.

Why not wait for categorical scientific evidence of its safety?

[chris carter @chrishcarter]

@jonnycope @JonathanLord @WillForster Can you share information on the "perfect reasonability" of fracking? It also looks like conservatives are breaking manifesto pledge "unless the science shows categorically that it can be done safely." (p57 of Conservative 2019 manifesto) https://t.co/IGBGlcW3Y4

Some thoughts about the new Clip Studio Paint business model and software with perpetual free updates:

Some people might have noticed that I disagreed the Bank of England’s decision to increase interest rates yesterday. It was completely irresponsible, but what happens now? Let me offer some opinion on that and a comprehensive plan to get us through this mess. A thread…..

[chris carter @chrishcarter]

@mrtombox Very Fun! thanks for sharing Tom!

[chris carter @chrishcarter]

@Matthew_Brooke Ah that's good, I'm sure most could increase their rate and still get work, particularly people like yourself who are proven to deliver quality and on schedule.

This BCTU resource could be handy also: https://t.co/cgGzsqsLXA (seems high to me but some must be getting that much)

@Matthew_Brooke Sorry to hear that. Have you seen the "salty animators" salary survey data? that could be a better indicator of design salaries: https://t.co/FzYRjJZmFA

Howdy gang! We have one internship slot remaining for this summer!

If you use ToonBoom and you're looking for an internship starting in May or June, give us a shout [email protected] ❤️

Hi friends, I've just released the first in a series of free classes called Animation for Anyone. I'll be sharing the ideas behind animation. Follow along for more :) https://t.co/HTJICzK59M

Channel 4 does not cost the public any money. It’s profitable. It supports an independent TV production industry across the UK. It nurtures new talent. It invests in investigative & foreign journalism like no other. C4 is an asset to the UK. There is no good reason to privatise.

[chris carter @chrishcarter]

@KayvonDFard Good luck Kayvon, I'm excited to see what you're cooking up!

Artists please stop doing this. You're setting impossible standards for your peers who want a work-life balance, creating an unsustainable and unhealthy schedule for yourself, and allowing companies to continue to underbid projects.
