That's also why so many celebrity photos on Wikipedia are of them talking on a panel at Comic-Con. There's just one guy who goes to Comic-Con every year, takes their pictures and uploads them to Wikipedia

The amateur photographers fixing Wikipedia's 'terrible' pictures The site is littered with awful photos, particularly of celebrities - but a volunteer project is trying to fix that.

Yeah, it turns out lots of celebrity photos are bad because all the photos of them are copyrighted and can't be used on Wikipedia www.bbc.com/news/article...

Stick to sports, Jon

Help me, Max Muncy. You're my only hope.

Very cool, but how come some of them don't add up to 100%? Is there a category of batted balls that are maybe Blasts or unknown or something?

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:

—Pioneering cancer researcher;
—*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
—Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
—"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.

/5 Put another way, this is on Americans, not just the people who lead them. A truly “freedom-loving” people would not endure this and would not have developed a political culture so encrusted with servile deference to authority that permits it. A free people would find it revolting.

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a dual-antibody treatment that remains effective against ALL SARS-CoV-2 variants by targeting a less-mutable part of the virus. This breakthrough could lead to longer-lasting therapies that OUTPACE viral evolution. 🧪🧵⬇️

Is that a real photo? He looks sad :(

I admire your willingness to try to convince people On Here that the Dodgers haven't ruined baseball

do you know how bad you have to be as president to make the Luka to Lakers thing the 2nd dumbest trade related news of the last 24hrs

Reality has a well-known liberal bias

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Leaked Meta Rules: Users Are Free to Post “Mexican Immigrants Are Trash!” or “Trans People Are Immoral” Facebook now allows attacks on immigrants and trans people, and posts like “Mexican immigrants are trash!” and “I’m a proud racist.”

NEW: I've obtained internal Meta docs revealing an array of sample posts that are now allowed under new hate speech rules. Examples include calling children "trannies," “Jews are flat out greedier than Christians," and “immigrants are grubby, filthy pieces of shit”

Or perhaps losing the tip was the key to victory

I actually laughed out loud

Old schoolers and advanced stats people are both aware of the ability of a hit to drive in a runner in scoring position. Advanced stats like wOBA attempt to account for the difference and I think they do a good job. You don't, and that's fine, there's room for disagreement on the details.

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound so combative. For what it's worth, the point I was trying to make was that I don't think you and I (or any other pseudo-intellectuals lol) actually disagree about how the game works. At least not in any fundamental sense.

I'm also waiting for someone to show up and tell me that their little league coach used to say that a walk is as good a hit all the time

There's no person on earth who thinks that a walk is as good as a hit and the only metric in all of baseball that treats them the same is OBP

Dustin, how you writing an article listing the Dodgers starting rotation and not even mention Shohei Ohtani lol

First time getting breaking news on Bluesky!
