This exactly. Biden isn’t perfect, but over the last 3+ years the news hasn’t been insane every single day about chaos inside the White House or executive branch. Listen to audiobooks or read the books of the people from Trump’s own appointees that quit his administration in disgust. Different people, on the spectrum…

Unfortunately I don’t think there’s any law about having a convicted felon as president, so unless a specific state has a law against it, he’ll still be on the ballot in all 50 states.

When the first home game consoles came out in the 1970s, while some people were delighted to have something in their house like an arcade game, I’m sure others could look at them and tell that they left a lot to be desired. It feels like we have the Atari VCS-era AI tools at our disposal right now. I sure wish the…

Well, Iron Man vs Boba Fett would be cool. I’d probably go if that was confirmed.

“Steven Spielberg’s New Movie Will Battle Avengers and Star Wars”

I have a ton of Raspberry Pis and other SBCs sitting around. If generative AI creeps into Alexa, or if they drop the non-AI enabled service option, I’m going to roll my own voice assistant. The amount of AI in everything digital lately is infuriating. I had to spend time to block out AI search garbage on Google this…

A win for Marvel; a loss for the people holding out hope that Paramount would continue making good Star Trek content.

This sounds like a convoluted mess. I’ll let them see how useful this feature actually is to suckers consumers who purchase Copilot+ PCs. In the interim I’ll disconnect my Win 10 gaming box save for Steam updates, and probably buy a third or fourth SSD for Linux to do my daily driving on.

FWIW, uBlock Origin will also allow you to select the AI feed at the top of the page and hide that. I did that last night when my last work around, similar to this one with the default search URL, started failing.

Yes. Now pass the Brawndo.

I’m not up for musical Doctor Who so I stopped watching it after the first special. Possibly an unpopular opinion. I also disliked the one musical episode that didn’t fit for Strange New Worlds.

In one way that makes me sad, that Ronald is gone. However I have to say that, sitting in line at DQ earlier tonight, I thought about how the highlight of fast food as a kid was getting a “toy” with your meal, even if it was kind of crappy. That has to sort of program kids to want fast food, and to associate “fast…

Yes attention spans seem to be decreasing. That probably doesn’t affect the box office quite as much as too many hands in the pot screwing something up between the writing and directing, over reliance on VFX shots instead of solid story telling, and the need to cram in themes that may or may not have fit into the…

You mentioned Playmates making other 3rd party toy lines and you left out Voltron? Sacrilege! (/s)

Worked at a Veterinary Teaching Hospital for 12 years. Can confirm this. Also, I worked with a student who had one of the first verified human cases of H5N1 in the US, if what she told me was correct.

It’s worth it to you to pay $5 a month more than traditional streaming sites (Max, Netflix, Disney) that actually produce and/or license their own content over a site that just hosts videos other people produce? You’re part of the reason they’re making more money pushing YouTube premium.

Honestly I don’t miss that. If you pull it out and mess with it the chroming flakes off. I don’t have the self control to leave them in the packaging, so I can’t tell if the flaking happens if you don’t pull them out.

I wonder: Does Elon count tweeting as work?

“What if I wear both a red ball cap and a facial mask?” - Presumably the computer doing the AI calculations starts smoking, catches fire, and eventually melts back down into the base elements that computer was made out of.

Based on the first couple of words in the title, I clicked the link hoping for a story about a video rental store back from the dead and looking for brains to eat.  I am so disappoint.
