The first John Wick trailer looked like satire, full of "They killed my dog!" and "That dog was the final gift from my dying wife" and "It's personal!" but somehow it rose above it all. So ya never know.

It takes the like 30 seconds of creepy-af scenes in Signs and does that for 2 hours relentlessly. And there's zero dialog, it's all terror. This is literally a page from the shooting script

Love that he also declared that polls will now only be responded to by blue-checks. So now only neo-nazis can respond to Elon polls about whether neo-nazis are bad.

That's quite the out-of-nowhere stinger they probably should have focused the whole story on:

"When pressed, Portillo denied taking a cut, or percentage, of his officers’ extra job wages."

Well they didn't all walk away. At least one of those Proud Boys is most likely LAPD too.

I'm pretty sure the children's book about two gay penguins adopting a baby penguin would clear your "printed in a newspaper or read on broadcast television news" hurdle, my guy.

Stop hiding behind excuses and just SAY you hate LGBTQ people. All this faux "protect the children" crap is exhausting.

Especially considering their own favorite techbro sells a *portable flamethrower* for $500.

I didn't get into it. Turned into an anthology, with whole new setting and characters. Setting was a Japanese internment camp, so had a seldom-seen perspective, but should have been its own show, not branded "The Terror" for no reason except marketing.

His accent died before Mina did. Also if you like this sort of thing and haven't yet, The Terror (first season) should be right up your alley.

I'd pay $1000 to watch this if there's an after credits scene and it's just Gary Oldman strolling in London and catching the eye of Winona Ryder from across the street.

Actually I may have to take that back. Section 10.4 explicitly includes "customer content" in the rights granted for functions of the app, but then has the "For machine learning" bit tucked in there. So it comes down to is Zoom making/storing copies of all of our *private* calls in the first place?
August 7, 2023 at 6:15 PM
There's a whole section in the TOS that explicitly explains that "customer content", ie the stuff customers make (audio, video, etc) are EXCLUDED from the "service generated data" that it collects. So no they won't be using our faces or private conversations.

I think Cleta Mitchell is in the mix.

Yes but doesn't "half its users" still leave it with like 50 *million* users? Compared to Bluesky's 50,000ish? That doesn't seem like a disaster, unless those 50 million users are all brands.

I like it if just for the vehicle of giving Ryan Reynolds the rare (tho less rare every year) superhero triple; Hannibal King, Green Lantern, and Deadpool.
