The most desperate thing about modern apps and websites is the pop-up that only gives "yes!" and "maybe later" as the options. Buddy you can keep asking I guess but I'm smashing that fake no button every damn time

Just saw someone say their AI runs their fantasy football team and I can’t stop laughing. Like, I’m sure everyone’s doing it or something but it’s very funny to me that pretending to be a team manager was so hard that you needed to pretend to pretend to be a team manager

I think through 4 games the Seahawks are very good team not entirely playing up to their potential, despite flirting with it. I think that's a pretty good spot to be at. Not a guarantee that they will peak nor hold at it, but the they very much are capable of it. Niners will be tough.

@loganjplant.bsky.social Listening to nvc and you couldn't have said better how I feel about fire emblem. I still love the tactical combat but so much of FW seems like a chore. Idk how I will do the other paths after i finish the first one just because it'll all be the same stuff again

Literally every mention of betting detracts from the broadcast. I'm trying to watch baseball. I don't care about kalshi predictions about how many minutes and hours the game will take.

Have we discussed the Astros winning their division at 81-81 and then having the unmitigated audacity to do a bullpen game in Game 1 of the postseason? That's disgusting. A bigger affront to baseball than the trash can thing

Another funny AI thing tangential to the last post is that Google tied Gmail's promoted ads to its smart features which, are all AI based now so if you turn them off you don't get that annoying Promotions folder in your Gmail anymore. The unprofitable AI business is cannibalizing their main business

2026 is funny because my phone just hard reset because I accidentally activated one of the AI features that I don't want but can't uninstall and that froze the phone until it crashed. Great products we have here

If only there was a 3 point play in which the Packers could have scored earlier to keep it a one score game during this collapse. Something like a 'field kick' or an 'air goal'? Idk I'm sure they'll think of something
