even though there's a thousand serious reasons to never touch anything ambani owned in general, can't forgive @JioHotstar for taking off Little Zizou off of the platform.

please put my favorite film back on.

then, it tells me to check in my ipad settings if the paper pro subscription is active or not. and guess what, it is active. this is just so kafkaesuqe. even if you're not scamming, just MAKE. APPS. SIMPLE for the love of god.
p.s happy to have cancelled the subscription too.

[gaurang @spacemanstripes]

dear @evernote, are you scamming?

i had bought Paper Pro last year, when it belonged to @WeTransfer and i just recently got billed for another year - which is something i don't mind because i really did want to make something nice with it. (1/x)

then your help page suggests me to update the app. it already was updated. then it said follow to the "first aid" button in the support settings. when i click it, it says no issues found. (3/x)

Imagine being Miyazaki, pouring decades of heart and soul into making this transcendent beautiful tender style of anime, and then seeing it get sloppified by linear algebra

[gaurang @spacemanstripes]

after trying to stay afloat and learn animation and digital art for the last few years, im scared I've not done enough before what AI could give to this world. I guess I just have to live with it, cry about it and be fine.

[gaurang @spacemanstripes]

seeing what the ghibli AI artworks are doing, it's true that it's the worst insult we're causing to studio ghibli, miyazaki, the art of animation and hardwork itself. we were shoved genAI down our throats, yet we're happy with what we're giving up. guess this is the end of art.
