AI is pushing us backwards - instead of leading to cheaper stuff for the commoners, its leading to more expensive stuff as our future overlords generate more and more component demand.

Yes, The Lost World movie was almost nothing like the book - may have had entirely different plots and characters altogether. I read the hardcover right when it came out - its been so long I don't remember the book details too much - but when I saw the movie was like, wtf is this?. What I...

This is the wrong take. Spurs are the youngest team in history to make it to this point - they're not supposed to be here to begin with. For reference, KD/Westbrick/Harden were 23/23/22 when they made the finals against the Heat and had already suffered multiple playoff eliminations in years...

If it was rigged why make that call early in the game and nothing later to help seal the deal? Watching in real time, it looked like it was going to be very short and Robinson went up for it like he was expecting a lob. Both those things could have swayed to officials to not think goaltending...

Last night was too much, legendary. The logo 3 to tie it in OT1 was literally almost from the same spot on the OKC floor Steph hit the "Bang, Bang!" shot from. They needed Mike Breen there to announce that because the reaction Reggie and the other guy gave wasn't enough - for him to hit that...

I don't think Fox is the Spurs second best player at this point. Its Castle, and Harper is quickly threatening to jump into that second spot. Castle's poster on SGA was Sick, was fouled too. That was an all-timer game for sure. These teams were must watch against each other during the...

I think it would greatly reduce it. Since being in the cellar would no longer be rewarded at all (the 3 worst records will actually have lower odds than the 4-10th worst), bad teams would definitely try to win more games. They would stop sitting their best players past certain points in the...

Its not just Wemby - Spurs may have the best trio of young stars since KD/Russ/Harden. Still very TBD but its impressive what they are doing now, well ahead of schedule.

Probably - so they shouldn't have any problem with people going to dig through the garbage if that's the case.

Guessing this is going to be as lame as round 1 of the Epstein files "declassification" where they gave those worthless binders to the press.

I find Eric Weinstein more annoying than Jesse Michels though. Both Thiel disciples, but Weinstein is even more full of hot air. He presents himself as some great physicist. He has some airy "theory of everything" called geometric unity that he has never published a real paper on. In fact...

Abomination. * that in the history books.

Can't stand him either but have to watch some of his pieces because you don't hear the people he talks to elsewhere.

Yeah.. Atlantean government technology ! Supposedly a resin sample (had some sort of resin laced all over the surface) from the Buga sphere was submitted to university of Georgia for analysis and they radiocarbon dated it to 12,500 years old. Not sure what proof there is they actually sent a...

If she was actually accomplishing anything in AI I don't think they'd have moved her, since that is their current focus above all. And since they haven't been doing well in that space I think... she probably hasn't been. She may have done a good job looking like she was pushing goals and...

They'll do anything to take the spotlight off the cabal of cannibal pedos ruling the world. Start a war, release the UFO files.

They'll keep building Y and 3. Yes, they're shutting down S & X to transition those factories to Optimus production.

So this is the guy who developed the SAR technique which was used to do the deep scans under the Pyramids. A few of the more interesting points I gleaned from this: -They waited over a year before publishing anything because they knew this would turn shit on its head and wanted to be sure...

Damn, maybe it was karma got Jimmy this week. (season over)

Rule book doesn't say anything about how long you have to possess the ball to "survive the ground." I say he had control, "survived the ground," and then the DB ripped it out of his hands when he was down. The guy in the video, whoever he is with his 339 subscribers lol, says after he hits...

Not a Bills fan. Explain to me again how this isn't a catch for the receiver? He has control as soon as the ball hits his hands, control to the ground, control during his roll, and doesn't lose the ball until its ripped away from him. Defender never had any possession until the receiver was...

IV for life. I played enough of V and monitored enough of VI and VII to know I didn't want to even buy those. At this point I feel like buying these newer Civ games is akin to paying to go to trash new Star Wars movies. They can assassinate one of my favorite franchises; I'm not going to give...

I thought it was a bullshit call on the Broncos final INT - it was weird to me that nobody on the broadcast was questioning it. Like he clearly seemed to have possession before he hit the ground, then hits the ground (down), and only then did the CB very quickly gain some kind of possession of...

The unsportsmanlike conduct call was meaningless, game was over after the 2nd PI call. Brutal way to lose - I felt like the pick could have easily been called a catch for Bill's which would have set up the game winner for them.

Most likely they did some investigation into the possibility it was technological, that it could rendez-vous with earth with a maneuver. A prominent scientist was out there saying it was possible - seems prudent that may have at least investigated it. Even if they came to the conclusion that...

Nancy Pelosi laughs at the returns of index funds.

Yeah so many weird co-incidences, probably just a strange comet from a far off, far before place, yet there's doubt. This one is a bit more far out too - This guy seems like a kook - he has some serious scientific credentials, Phd from Caltech and whatnot, but he says some far out shit...

Tom Lee was also relentlessly calling for $200k+ Bitcoin by end of year. He finally had to change his tune to... "I think it can make it back above $100k by end of year..."

Not quite enough shares for covered calls. I've also noticed looking at the chart 4 out of the last 5 years, March/April has been an optimal buying time for Tesla where it dips from winter into spring. Probably just coincidence, and 2022 didn't follow the trend.

Yeah thinking of selling some. Long term very bullish on Tesla due to robotaxi and especially Optimus, but its going to be so long before either of those really start affecting the top line I think, and its bumped down off of these 460ish levels multiple times before. I want to be in it, but...

So we know 3I/Atlas showed non-gravitational acceleration at perihelion, much larger acceleration than any previous comet at that distance, but the course change overall was still piddling. However, new evaluation shows the course change was just enough so that the object will be on the edge of...

Download Stellarium free to your phone and point. It'll tell you if they are starlink or other satellites I think. I know for sure it shows Starlinks, just don't know if it has them all catalogued or how long after they launch.

Doesn't matter how much they piss somebody off, they can't put the LLM genie back in the bottle. They are everywhere, they're too easy to create, and too useful for a lot of things. Yes, maybe a market bubble will pop soon. But what happened to the internet when the .com bubble popped? It...

Once upon a time the console deals were a big deal for AMD, but small potatoes now vs. the large AI server pie that is out there now which they are starting to get pieces of. So I don't don't think AMD is "hard up" right now. Who knows what the real numbers are - but of course Microsoft would...

Yep the nickel is a weird one, one of the many reasons you have to at least consider artificial origin.

Nearly everything about it has been odd. Everybody who has been saying "Its a comet, its a comet, its a comet!" without explaining all the oddities since the start has been getting owned. Yeah maybe its still a natural object, but its not like any comet we've seen before.

We can mostly only see it with the instruments that designed to look at the sun now, those are the observations they used for that paper. Still a while before all the earth based optical telescopes can see it again. The Blue shift was unexpected - and the brightening that was noted in the same...

The government shutdown gives NASA plausible reason not to release the Mars orbiter images as long as it goes on.

Loeb pointed this out in one of the Hubble images as well, and claims he's the only one that has even tried to explain how this anti-tail could occur. Just another anomaly of this "comet." His brief about this feature and summary of all the anomalies. Some interesting comments there, such as...

There's no way get out of the games business entirely in the near future. $15B+ revenue a year in games and game pass, high margin businesses. Hardware is debatable, but they will keep selling games, and the old games you bought will continue to be available on their digital stores long into...
