Sure, but how far below water is HRC on “her emails?”

-NYT (probably)

Enten: "Trump is 39 below water on the Epstein case. 39 points in the negative! My goodness gracious. What Trump has been selling on the Epstein files, the Epstein case, the American people have not been buying at all ... less than half of Republicans are buying it. This is his worst issue by far"

This thread from @ryanlcooper.com is the correct take imo bsky.app/profile/ryan...

STOP TALKING ABOUT EPSTEIN

THANK YOU FOR YOUR LACK OF ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

I mean, nobody likes ads, but they’re how a lot of content creators support themselves, and I enjoy their content, so... I’d love a world without ads or paywalls too but that means finding a way to pay for a lot of stuff nobody is used to paying for.

I think our conception of plagiarism needs to shift too. Scraping websites and repurposing the information ostensibly takes food off the table of whoever originally published it by denying them ad revenue, for example, but I'm not sure most people would consider accessing public sites plagiarism

My hot all star take is making players wear their team uniforms would do more for competitiveness than any of this stuff

So to sum up the All-Star Game selection process this season:

24 All-Stars
12 from each conference
Positions don't matter
16 US players
8 World players
2 US teams
1 World team
8 players per team
If there are not enough US or World players then Adam Silver will select more to fill out the teams.

Looks like NBA just revealed the All-Star Game format this season. Two teams of American players and one World team. Same selection process for the All-Stars but they will not be picked based on position. So positionless All-Stars selections.

They did use it…but I’m confused why this required a challenge and the other one was just reviewed by default.

Sam Kamin @sjkamin.bsky.social · 2d

I’m shocked by the way AI has been normalized. The ethical conversations seem to be 99% “how should we use it if it’s sometimes wrong” and 1% “should we use a tool that’s built on plagiarizing the knowledge of the world.”

We have no thought leaders in tech because they’re all profit motivated.

“Court iQ?” Why is the Q capitalized…and the i isn’t…? Is it an Apple product?

Sam Kamin @sjkamin.bsky.social · 2d

Isn’t the Hawkeye (or whatever it’s called) just supposed to catch stuff like this without a challenge?

Sam Kamin @sjkamin.bsky.social · 2d

Just noticed this too as I was curious how they would handle the DDV “possession” moment

Sam Kamin @sjkamin.bsky.social · 2d

Lol

Sam Kamin @sjkamin.bsky.social · 3d

If they change the call at all (e.g. from a shooting foul to a non-shooting foul) it should mean the challenge was successful.

The answer to that question is “because one party hates you, hates this country, hates the concept of the middle class, and wants you dead. But don’t worry; we got your back.”

Not whatever this shit is.
