Whole Foods AI stores were entirely Indians watching on video feeds and ringing you up. Waymos have live human support partially driving them. And the AI that has “Hollywood shaking in its boots” is…stock footage. With face replacement.

Yeah. We are sooooooo cooked, AI bros. Call me when it works.
From the above piece: “I hopped over to Seedance’s website and it only took 10 seconds to find green screen footage of two stuntmen performing the same fight choreography we see in the Cruise vs Pitt scene.” youtu.be/AKDWuFSy9DA

Why should "keep baseball on the field" be on the players if there's a lockout enforced by the owners? As a reminder, even if the bargaining agreement expires, baseball can still continue without a contract, as it did in 1994 before the strike. Canceling games is the owners' choice.

For all the salaciousness of Tony Clark's resignation, it offers MLBPA an opportunity to be a force for good and help keep baseball on the field in 2027. Free at ESPN: How creativity and open-mindedness from the players can save the game from doomsday. https://t.co/L2gEcmDDQd

I like Soderbergh, but if you spend two years writing fanfic that no one asked for, post it on AO3 like the rest of us. You aren't special.
Steven Soderbergh says he wasted 2 and a half years developing ‘THE HUNT FOR BEN SOLO’

“I’d made the movie in my head, and just felt bad that nobody else was going to get to see it. It’s insane. We’re all very disappointed.”

The men of the NBA get about 40% of total revenue.
Women are asking for 27.5% of total revenue.

This statement by the WNBA is simply not believable.
They need to explain clearly how a share of revenue below anything the men of the NBA have ever received would result in huge losses.
In a statement provided to ESPN, a WNBA spox calls the WNBPA's proposal "unrealistic & would cause hundreds of millions of dollars of losses for our teams. We... are running out of time. We believe the WNBA’s proposal would result in a huge win for current players & generations to come.”

His signature song is one of Eat It, Amish Paradise, Or White And Nerdy, based on your age. But shout out One More Minute, my favorite of his originals.

If I were a Democrat concerned about winning elections and was hearing that a significant number of voters wouldn’t support Gavin Newsom in 2028, I would simply stop pushing Gavin Newsom in 2026.
look if you want to freak out about people not voting newsom if he's the nominee a week before the 2028 general election, I kinda get it (but don't say you weren't warned). doing it now though is just a weird attempt to strong arm people into supporting him in the primary.
I think most (not all) of the "I will never vote for Gavin Newsom" people are communists who are mad that Americans don't like communism and want to destroy the Democratic party out of revenge. They don't care how many elections Republicans win or how many trans people die as long as the Dems fall.

The idea that people's financial struggles are a personal failing is a moral rot that needs to be excised from our culture.

This was fun. Only downside was some transphobia that reminds you it was made in 1991.
