So disappointed to realize that #WFUV laid off two of the most knowledgeable, erudite and mellifluous DJ's on the air, Darren DeVivo and Eric Holland. You will be missed, guys!

In a horrifying article about the dangers of Teslas, one point stands out: Teslas automatically disengage self-driving mode <1 second before an imminent crash--not enough time for the driver to react, but enough for Tesla to deny responsibility for fatal crashes, since self-driving "wasn't engaged."

$The real surprise came after the experiment. Fred Lambert, who writes for the blog Electrek, pointed out the same autopilot disengagement that the NHTSA had documented. “Autopilot appears to automatically disengage a fraction of a second before the impact as the crash becomes inevitable,” Lambert noted.$

You can understand how people in different cultures independently came up with the idea of vampires, of things that look like humans but exist only to consume humans in order to extend their unnatural lives.

Please. No more speeches in the Senate about “freedom” until one Republican has the guts to stand up to Trump’s lies about Ukraine & Putin. Ukraine did not start this horrific war. Russia did. Zelensky isn't a dictator. Putin is. The US must not enter into an alliance with Putin.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

So, encouraged, nay mandated, to get a new PC so as to run Windows 11, I have bought said item. Now explain to me why Windows 11 is better than Windows 10? They seem pretty similar to me. (Except the Taskbar is centered, wow!).

So I'm compiling a Spinning Playlist, and Spotify is hilariously playing Johnny Cash "Ring of Fire" when the track listing is "Foot Tapper" by the Shadows! (Neither of which will make it into tomorrow's playlist!)

It's that time of year. Lists.... here is my list of the books I have most enjoyed in 2024. As always, not necessarily published in 2024. Hopefully, you enjoyed one of these too, or may take them as a suggestion for next year!

A friend told me about this app. I had not previously heard of it. The Storygraph is a book reading app which is not corporate owned. I have signed up and will see which one I prefer. It means doing double updates for a while, but such is research. See HuffPost: www.huffpost.com/entry/storyg...
