Oh no Mozilla, ads and AI?

From Mark Surman at the Mozilla blog:

I know that losing Google’s paid search money is basically all of Mozilla’s income, but ads and AI aren’t the answer. I would guess that anyone using Mozilla is blocking ads, and AI in a browser is just not worth paying for? I mean Mozilla’s current AI summarizes web pages, but is that a money maker? I mean really? AI costs money to run so you have to pay for it, and I just haven’t seen where AI in a web browser is going to make Mozilla enough money to survive.

And Mozilla needs to survive as there is Chrome/Chromium which you can’t trust cause it is Google, Safari, which is Apple so they will never allow Mozilla’s level of customization, and Mozilla, which makes no money.

PVC on LumaFusion v5.2 doubles video/audio track support

Awesome, great news. LumaFusion is a real editor for iPad that works with a timeline like Premiere or Avid and not Final Cut. And it gets better all the time.

Still it also makes me wish that BlackMagic would just release all the DaVinci Resolve pages on the iPad app, instead of having to use keyboard shortcuts to launch them, because then the iPad would have a real editor.

PostPerspective interview with Colorist Mitch Paulson on Grading Alien: Romulus

  • Post category:Interview

Another great interview from PostPerspective.

Interesting, and I mostly enjoyed Romulus, in fact much more than I thought I would. A mix of fan service and good movie making, but with some huge plot holes that Lee me from really loving it.

Like if they went and found the Alien from Alien, where do all the face huggers come from? They come from a. Queen right? If they also went to LV426 to get them why would Wayland Yutani have sent colonists? And if it was to get them infected just send some prisoners.

And they just aren’t able to use dead actors so why bother? It looks awful!
