    Check you're not just seeing the thumbnail, it's a good size for me. I think sone clients default to the small view unless you click them or similar.

    I'm on desktop and it's not very good. I thought my net was crapping out until I saw the comments

    That's really bizzare, on lemmy instances, even the poster's home instance, it's tiny and blurry, but on piefed instances (I've tried piefed.social and piefed.world) it shows up fine. Just obe of the mysteries of the fediverse I guess.

    It looks fine on this instance. Maybe it's a .world media storage thing going on.

    Nope, I'm on lemmy.world and getting the full quality image.

    Using the Jerboa app right now, so the client app might have half of something to do with it..

    Rename HBO Max to "Max"

    My favorite part was when Zaslav announced Max would be rebranded as HBO Max two years later, claiming, "HBO's prestigious reputation was too valuable" as if that weren't something everyone but him knew all along.

    I very cautiously submit Gabe Newell for consideration. I'm not aware of him doing anything overtly and blatantly evil yet.

    "Aware" being the operative word, here.

    Not that buying a custom, $100 million yacht is, in itself, a terrible thing, I mean, apart from the environmental issues, but I feel like it's just a matter of time before a few skeletons break out of his closet.

    Ye, no such thing as an ethical billionaire. I just mean that as far as billionaire CEO's go you can definitely find worse. He's done a much better job of keeping his evil tendencies (should they exist) under wraps.

    I feel like even with the yatches, or perhaps even because of the yatches, of all the money people around, Gabe is among the ones who more or less get it right in that he uses the money for Himself stuff, instead of say financing the IDF. Compare, say, JKR or the Mullvad CEO.

    A capitalist success story

    He looks like he's about to start a cult of pregnant teenagers.

  • source
  • Actually he wanted to sell it to Netflix (which is marginally better) but the shareholders choose Paramount because it offers way more money for the valuation of WB IIRC

    He is still a fucking asshole

    What is everyone on about? Blurry?

    The image is crystal clear on my end. I'm a member of lemmy.world and using the Jerboa app.

    I'm gonna save this post to investigate later, just out of curiosity, because seriously the posted screenshot image appears crystal clear on my end, and I don't think OP edited their post.

    What are you folks seeing to say its blurry/needs more JPEG?

    warn a brother

    Warn of what???
    We keep fucking saying that these epstein class CEOs are not just worthless but genuinely detrimental and should be put down like sick dogs. But you guys keep hiring them for some reason.

    I can highly recommend "Fools Rush In: Steve Case, Jerry Levin, and the Unmaking of AOL Time Warner" by Nina Munk as a fantastic examination of how things got this bad regarding media consolidation

    Why are so many people complaining about quality of the image? I don't think the quality can get any higher

    This is a high quality version. The main post opens to a much lower quality version for me and everyone else complaining, I guess.

    Not sure how well this will come through but here's a voyager screenshot. Your version is visible below and is much sharper

    David Zaslav sees no value in artists and animators and hates animated media. Garbage human.

  • source
  • [–] 3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

    The boards of directors of these massive entertainment companies care about money, and nothing else. It gives me only the slightest schadenfreude knowing that it probably makes them all crazy having to deal with a corporate sector that relies entirely on ARTISTS, who are notoriously as cooperative as cats. They have no choice, and they hate that.

    Be David Zaslav:

    • Become CEO of Warner Bros
    • Cancel finished movies for tax write-offs
    • Initiate mass layoffs of employees
    • Rename HBO Max to "Max"
    • Earn more than $550M as CEO
    • Put a beloved movie studio up for sale
    • Sell to the most evil highest bidder

    If you follow the link back to OPs home profile the picture appears normal there.
