on the iphone there is a setting for "silence unknown callers" but it's four screens deep which is real annoying when you just need to switch it on for an hour for a delivery ...but you *can* use Shortcuts to make it a button on the home screen. enjoy!

this is terribly written and full of factual errors; for example hackman won only two academy awards as opposed to the four you credit. if you want people to trust your news, do the work of writing it.
text: In 1967, Hackman portrayed Buck Barrow in Bonnie and Clyde, a role that earned him the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. He went on to win a string of awards in the 1970s, including Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for his work in I Never Sang for My Father in 1970 and the Academy Award for Best Actor for his role as Detective Jimmy “Popeye” Doyle in The French Connection in 1971.

very sorry to hear the news of Bob Uecker's passing; if you are a fan of baseball or Uecker or both, please may i recommend to you his wonderful memoir of his time playing professional baseball, "Catcher In The Wry" like the man himself it does not disappoint. RIP

what i assume are intended as 'positive' talking points from our local science museum's exhibit on AI
Strategy in advertising
Some advertisers are using Al to target their ads to the most receptive audience, thus personalizing the ad experience to the consumer.Pricing items
Retail companies are using AI to set optimal prices for their products.
In some cases, prices are even tailored to the individual consumer.

just because someone asked, here's what i would have played for Danny Janson; later in the conversation, my final idea was to evoke the meme and play the Spider-Man theme 😎
I'm curious. What song(s) would you have played for Danny Jansen's at bat today at Fenway Park?

so i was thinking about it idly
and i think a real easy one everyone would get is The Beach Boys "I Get Around"
particularly in a summer day game
there's something to be said for the
"guess who's back / back again" bit from eminem's "without me"
or lorde "team" at the "we're on each others' team" bit
i was trying to think of a good like "i'm two people at once" song and i know there's a good answer but brain hasn't surfaced it yet

U.S. Techno-Industrial Base Eroding Due To Foreign Competition"It is not enough to say, 'We must drop bass.' It is not enough to say, 'We must rock the crazy beats,'" President Clinton said Monday in a secret live appearance at D.C.'s famed underground The 930 Club. "If American techno is to become the world's leader once again, we must drop much bass; we must rock mad, phat-ass, crazy beats; and we must do so quick-fast in a hurry, 24-7, 365. And I am out."
