Can't watch because of the general MLB broadcasting disaster. Will be rooting for all the underdog teams however.

In her review of Piketty, McCloskey points out that the Latin root of data is "things given," but that the documentation Piketty is working with, primarily tax records, is more accurately a reflection of "things seized." That is, not data, but capta.
I want to dΓ©tournΓ© McCloskey's point to argue that capta is the appropriate title for the currencies of technofeudalism.? It is an economy which is growing increasingly inefficient, coercive, and authoritarian because the economic process it glorifies is not one of mutual consent to market exchange, but of non-consensual seizure of attention, identity, and future potential.

I’ve been trying to use capta consistently, where appropriate, and have been pleased to find, for many, no explanation is needed. It is very intuitive, as disciplinary jargon should be.

Deadwood was and is - if you'll pardon the expression - a fucking masterpiece.

Also team-colored 1991 Donruss is surprisingly nice.

Hey #believeinfilm friends,

Watch Jeff and Suzan Bridges unbox WideluxX #1 and WideluxX #2 German-made panoramic film cameras: www.analog.cafe/comments/exwp

Youp, it's Jeff Bridges who played The Dude in The Big Lebowski.

Yes, those are complete copies of the original Widelux F8 cameras.

Name and position should be something like Trade Gothic. Team is more exotic. Neither should be in something Helvetica-like.

True. Donruss baseball looked like garbage compared to Donruss football but it looked more like a food issue from the 90s than an AI-ified trash fire.

That was such a nice baseball design too. But this looks like an AI copied it.

Doesn't as long as no one gets hurt. Bader in theory should be back pretty soon too.

Just pulled it up. Nice for him to get a bacon shirt. Saw him play in college and San Jose in the same year a couple years ago. Hopefully will see him when Richmond comes to town this year.
