    NHL 2024-2025: Definitely the Leafs year

    OK. After seeing all the "national" broadcasts I have so far this playoffs (and the normal "home" broadcasts). SOMETHING has to get fixed.... Especially on the ESPN broadcasts. So hear me out. Option 1: Same broadcast on ESPN and ESPN2, except that one teams home broadcast (PbP and Color)...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    ok, Minor Jimmy Rustling... Social media sites which force you into "We put things in your timeline by the order determined by our magical behind the scenes algorithm. You probably won't get the option to just say "Newest first"." Then they will proceed to constantly inundate you with social...

    The thing that will be the death knell for Google search will, ironically, be something they've done to other technologies. Commoditized absorption. In 5 years nobody (or EXTREMELY FEW people) will go to a page to use a search engine. Search is being absorbed into the interfaces people use...

    NHL 2024-2025: Definitely the Leafs year

    I'm with you on the logo not being all that interesting. As for the name that was just the one thing I remembered hearing, although maybe that was over the name "Yeti" which was another contender. The only shit I want to see the Jets getting together is their golfing shit for the off season.

    I don't see how that's really disagreeing. We're both seeing aspects of the "AI is coming for her jerbs" effect. With CRWD apparently it's AI taking over non-customer facing roles internally. AI over the next 5 years will becomes a downward pressure on job availability because it's going to...

    If I remember right there's another hockey team somewhere with the name Mastadon(s), or something like that. Yeah, 2 hatties in three periods.... He definitely has something to prove, I'm just glad he's proving it in a Stars sweater....

    Home Improvement

    Before we re-did our patio into a proper climate controlled room it was just an enclosed "greenhouse" essentially with windows. We had a normal chest freezer and a normal fridge out there we kept stuff in just fine. This was N. Texas weather, so from around 0-5 degrees at the coldest to around...

    Yeah, this was from the CT scan today.

I'm awaiting...

    Well.... My enemy has been better identified, for whatever it is worth... Around an inch by inch and a half nugget of joy loitering around on the top rear of my left kidney. Hasn't changed in size that I can tell over the last month and a half. Will still need a partial nephrectomy...

    Holy shit... Jets definitely earned it. But that doesn't discount that their Goal situation is insanely unstable at the moment. Stars over Jets in 7 (6 if Robo/Miro are both back by game 2) Knights over Oilers in 6 Caps over Canes in 7 (Breaks my heart as I'd love to see if Stanky could pull...

    Probably also because D&W was really more "MCU Adjacent" than anything. Yes, it's the official "linking" of the cinematic universes on some level, but I believe they still established that it was still a "different timeline" etc... Also, D&W had far more autonamous control over it's...

    They also just announced a new initiative to be able to link crypto wallets and assets to your MC account so you can transact with crypto instead of USD.

    FOH Shower Thoughts

    When a woman tells her husband "GAH! I married someone just like my dad!" men almost always take it as a compliment.. But if a man DARES say "You're just like your mother" he had better have alternative sleeping arrangements for himself pre-made.

    We're seeing the same in my neighborhood, where the pattern has been "someone buys the house, raze it to the ground, build McMansion, sell McMansion". The McMansions are now finishing construction and still have "You could own this" (their version of a for sale sign) out front. Or they're...

    I figure I have a certain number of reviewers who seem to align with my tastes/takes. I'll give it opening weekend and see what they say. If I go see Thunderbolts it will be the first Marvel movie I've seen (in any form) since Spiderman: No Way Home.
