"Infinite personalized music" sounds absolutely abyssmal. You did not "solve" anything more than the Spotify/Pandora algorithms, which often suck.

None of this makes any sense (for-profit companies begging to be regulated by the feds but also asking for an antitrust exemption - which they do not need - for catastrophe prevention purposes) unless you start from the proposition that they're robber barons running a type of scam.

I know this is all for soundbytes in the griftosphere but this is really pathetic attempted impeachment of a lawyer witness in a room full of lawyers. You got him to commit to the thing you think is false and then you flash a demonstrative with hearsay from 3rd parties and yell GOTCHA, PERJURER?

You have to love* that for the most part, the politicians who prattle on the most about freedom and free markets were the ones most likely to vote for the Protect College Sports Act within a few years of college athletes having the freedom to earn their true market value.

Oh, my, this DA is a whiny baby. "Furthermore, I have never been contacted by Jane Doe’s attorneys. Not to inform me the original statement was inaccurate and not to ask me to reconsider our decision." Why on Earth would they?!

I also love this chart and would speculate that some of the variance may be explained by part-time residence or tourist web traffic clouding the data (HI, FL, NY, TN, and NM).

What alarms me about Crockett is that endorsing someone you don't like is a really basic, minimum lift political competency. It's a team sport with group goals. Opting out is a choice and a massive unforced error that'll basically cap her political career.

This appears to be a spectacularly miscast and ill-conceived film. It'll get a baseline of good reviews because it's Sorkin with party-approved politics, but he's competing with Fincher and cast America's most humorless actor as a public figure who is patently ridiculous.

I know exactly one of the Billboard No. 1s this year in any organic sense. I specifically looked up Choosin' Texas last week. If I ever heard it in a grocery store I would've said it's mediocre country pop with dumb lyrics and moved on. This music reality is vastly superior to 1996's.

There are a lot of adjectives that could describe Sean Davis but I don't think "muscular" is one of them. This man looks like an egg that barely made it past quality control.

Area Self-Proclaimed Super-Genius Does Not Understand Evolution at a 10th Grade Level

Algernon's Law says that any simple (45) major intelligence enhancement will turn out to be a net evolutionary disadvantage. (46). The flip side of Algernon's Law is that there are some levels of performance that can't be achieved without the evolutionary disadvantage. If there were any way to duplicate the performance level of a Specialist without the downside, my SAT scores would be as common as mud; those performance levels would be part of the standard human neurology, like symbolic language or three-dimensional vision.

Social media is a flammable liquid. The spark here is still sportsbro broadcasters and a producer who picked one family in a stadium that seats 40,000 people for focus and speculation that probably felt like clubhouse banter in the moment. Way easier to get one big org to change its behavior.

This story is harrowing, but the local upstate NY college bar's claim that they didn't serve anyone underage is bigger bullshit than anything Donald Trump has said in the last decade. Sure, Jan, your waitstaff told 19 year olds with money hard no. And I've got a unicorn making donuts in my garage.

I realize this is ripe bait, but it's wild how quickly opinions change on TV shows. The Hollywood Reporter did a similar list in 2023 (www.hollywoodreporter.com/lists/best-t...) with Res Dogs at no. 6, Breaking Bad at 16, and many, many others not on this list at all.

I know it isn't a perfect correlation and there are valid reasons to divorce or be estranged from a parent, but a lot about John Cleese can be explained by the fact that he's thrice divorced and blames his mother for it: www.independent.co.uk/news/people/...

This is hilarious but teens doing this as well as using random blog comment sections are basically the internet equivalent of kids hanging out in abandoned buildings or wherever and why keeping kids off "social media" doesn't really work any better than policing who your kid hangs out with.

This argument shows a fundamental misunderstanding of the what, why, and how of adverse possession. Open/notorious use works with land because the owner can and should inspect the land. How do I know if someone is using my or a dead relative's ID? And IDs are by law not transferable property so lol.

Among other issues, for 1956 there were nine fiction finalists, of which four were women, one of the men (Bowles) was known to be LGBTQ+, and we really can't know for certain who else was LGBTQ+. The only one of the bunch in "the canon" I think is Flannery O'Connor's A Good Man is Hard to Find.

Hanania is a lot of things (grifter, pervert, pseudo-intellect) but don't forget that he's a plain ol' lousy writer. You need nothing here after the sixth line. We all get it. Sixteen more lines after that. "She a lyin' ho" fits on one for goodness' sake. Style matters.

Democrats were about twenty-five years late figuring this out, but drafting mainline ministers to run in red states is a fairly good defense against some of the more idiotic accusations that get thrown at "the left" and the GOP's attempted monopolization as the party of God(c).
