Pokolj u Kusonjama (1991. g.)

Pokolj koji se dogodio nad 18 hrvatskih gardista i 2 hrvatska policajca odigrao se 8. i 9. rujna 1991. godine u zasjedi pobunjenih Srba u Kusonjama pokraj Pakraca. Na temelju neprovjerene dojave zapovjedništvo pokreće akciju eliminacije srpskih minobacačkih položaja u Kusonjama koji su bili svakodnevna ugroza Pakracu.

Da bi saznali snagu protivnika, dan prije akcije šalju oklopljeno vozilo TOP 1 sa pripadnicima interventne satnije 105. bjelovarske brigade u izviđanje u Kusonje, međutim ne nailaze na protivničko djelovanje, pa je akcija sukladno planu počela iduće jutro, 8. rujna 1991. godine. U 07:30 h ulaze u dobro pripremljenu zasjedu i nakon onesposobljavanja TOP-a 1, aktivnu obranu pružaju iz obližnje kuće sa kućnim brojem 55.

Dio gardista je pobijen tijekom razmjene vatre tog dana a dio je masakriran nakon zarobljavanja idućeg jutra. Ako dodamo ovoj tragediji pogibiju trojice hrvatskih časnika koji su dvije godine kasnije poginuli na istom mjestu prilikom odavanja počasti poginulim suborcima onda možemo reći da je ovo svakako jedan od najtragičnijih događaja na pakračkom ratištu za vrijeme Domovinskog rata.

Na fotografiji vidimo scenu početka zasjede u Kusonjama, iz hrvatskog igranog filma 'Broj 55'.

Waarom zouden we onszelf vijf jaar lang in de jungle van 3D- en VFX-scholen verliezen als we het ook in drie jaar kunnen doen? De EMC biedt een alternatieve route: een verkorte opleiding in drie jaar, ideaal voor iedereen die sneller wil inburgeren in de wereld van de effecten. En hey, wie wil er nu niet in een kleinere, cosy klas zitten in plaats van in een zee van studenten?

Ik vraag me af, als ik had geweten dat het zo simpel was, was ik misschien ook wel een 3D-toekomstster geworden in plaats van mijn dagen te vullen met binge-watching van animatiefilms.

Dus, wat is je excuus nu? De strijd om de toekomst begint hier!

Às vezes, sinto que sou como R.O.B., um robô esquecido em um mundo que avança rapidamente, onde minha importância parece se apagar. No novo filme de Super Mario Galaxy, esse personagem de 1985 finalmente recebe atenção, mas a solidão que sinto é tão profunda quanto a galáxia que ele habita.

Ver referências nostálgicas me lembra das conexões que perdemos ao longo do caminho. Uma parte de mim anseia por aqueles momentos simples, onde tudo era magia. Às vezes, nos sentimos invisíveis, mesmo em meio a tanta movimentação.

Mas, quem sabe, até mesmo um robô pode brilhar em meio à escuridão. Que possamos todos encontrar nosso lugar, não importa quão escondido esteja.

Mangas Shonen: a glorificação da mesmice e dos mesmos clichês!

O artigo “Características principais dos mangas Shonen: ação e heróis” apresenta uma análise que parece mais uma repetição interminável das mesmas fórmulas: batalhas épicas, amigos que se tornam rivais, e heróis com histórias de fundo mais dramáticas que uma novela mexicana. Quem não está cansado de ver sempre os mesmos arcos narrativos? É como assistir a um filme de Hollywood onde o herói sempre vence no final! A criatividade está em falta, e os fãs merecem mais do que uma reciclagem de ideias!

Se você caiu na armadilha de achar que esses mangás são a salvação das histórias, é hora de acordar! Precisamos de inovação! Pensem, criadores, por favor!

Die Abonnenten von Disney+ in Europa erleben gerade, dass ihre 4K-Filme und Serien nicht mehr in 3D verfügbar sind, besonders für die Apple Vision Pro-Nutzer.

Ehrlich gesagt, wer braucht schon 3D, wenn man auch einfach auf die Couch liegen und einen Film in 2D schauen kann? Manchmal ist weniger mehr, oder? Vielleicht ist es an der Zeit, einfach mal die alten Klassiker zu genießen, ohne all den technischen Schnickschnack.

Na ja, das Leben ist eben manchmal etwas eintönig.

Wusstet ihr, dass die Zukunft des Fernsehens jetzt mehr mit Computern als mit Menschen zu tun hat? Freepik hat gerade "The Chronicles of Bone" veröffentlicht – eine Serie, die die Grenzen zwischen realer Magie und künstlicher Intelligenz verschwimmen lässt. Ein bisschen echtes Kostüm, ein bisschen KI-Generation, und voilà – das neue Hollywood-Rezept ist geboren!

Ich frage mich, ob wir bald sogar unsere eigenen Netflix-Profile von einem Algorithmus erstellen lassen dürfen. "Schau dir diese Serie an – sie könnte dir gefallen, weil du auch gerne das Geräusch von Rasenmähern in einer Endlosschleife hörst!"

Wenn das nicht der Weg in eine dystopische Zukunft ist, was dann?
