Is there an organisation that makes you want to NOT watch and have to philosophically debate yourself more than #FIFA?

And I don't just mean this year.

@microsoft.com recenty updated outlook. It was already going downhill and now the contacts app is even worst than before. Rather than click the contact to see whta I want, I now need to find it, navigate to the contact, and right click EDIT to see anything. Sigh. Come on.

30 years ago I was calculating the derivative of a polynomial function and typed "3 =" to find the derrivative of 3x is equal to 3.

Today I typed "Please write that we expect ...." and Gemini responded with exactly what I told it to write.

With the distribution capabilities of today, am I crazy to think that @colbertlateshow.bsky.social will be just fine by doing his own thing ? The networks don't control us anymore. This isn't 1950.

So everyone believes this is totally true right ?
Attorney General Pam Bondi for months promised the release of documents on Jeffrey Epstein that could reveal damaging details, drumming up anticipation over the files. But on Monday, the Trump administration acknowledged a lack of evidence for conspiracy theories in the case.

President Trump said on Sunday that he had a buyer for the U.S. branch of TikTok, the Chinese-owned app that faces a ban over national security concerns. He didn’t say who was interested in buying the app. But the Chinese government needs to approve any sale.
Trump Says He’s Found Buyers for TikTok
He didn’t say who was interested in buying the app, just that it was “a group of very wealthy people.” But the Chinese government needs to approve any sale.

Whenever I see an ad that is obviously an AI faked celebrity that brings you to some type of scam site, I've been taking the 10 seconds and reporting it

It probably takes me longer to do that than it takes them to reject it, but I feel we need to hold the tech Giants accountable somehow.

Canada's DST goes live: 3%

Rev: $750M+ globally & $20M+ in Canada pay up.

UK (2%), France (3%), Spain (3%) already doing this.

How else should governments participate in the massive digital economy? Traditional businesses pay taxes on local revenue - why should tech giants be different?

You should watch this Mr beast video

It was engaging, emotional, and had a positive health journey.

I watched while doing leg day.
