Seattle Sounders FC, Mariners, Seahawks fan. UBuffalo alum. Plays a lot of Football Manager, Oxygen Not Included, and Destiny 2. Director at Blizzard Entertainment. Opinions are my own and not that of my employer.
In my first match in Football Manager 26 beta, I tried to make subs and clicked on a drop-down in the Tactics screen... Application Error, game crashed. This FM26 beta seems a bit rough around the edges...

Imagine if Richard Nixon had just tweeted out the Watergate scandal rather than putting it on secret tapes.
That’s what this is.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.
This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.
All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

It's crazy how incredibly weak and craven most US companies have turned out to be, in the face of authoritarianism...
Zero sense of responsibility to their consumers.
Also they are lying. Read what Kimmel actually said...
It wasn't about Kirk. It was about cynical use of his death.
Cowards.

ABC as a network is now preempting the show indefinitely.
So this is nationwide.

BREAKING
Nexstar Media, which owns around two dozen ABC affiliates, says it will preempt Jimmy Kimmel Live indefinitely tonight due to his commentary on Charlie Kirk’s assassination.
Important to note that the FCC has to sign-off on Nexstar’s aquistion of TEGNA media group.

Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.
Release from HHS: HHS will wind down its development of the mRNA vaccine development activities under the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA).

Hey friends! I did a TEDx talk and it's now up on the TED Conferences YouTube. It's possibly the best and most important talk I've ever done.
I would ask that you watch it, and please SHARE it broadly and widely. Thank you! youtu.be/dVG8W-0p6vg #AI #Tech #TED

Turns out those whiz kid DOGE "geniuses" couldn't pass the basic, entry level tech screen it takes to get hired at 18F.
They didn't even meet the bar to *get an interview*.

I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include “climate” and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America. #AcademicSky
Just received an email saying that it's not advisable to include the following words in future applications for research funding to the US DOT. Here we are.
