As an Android user constantly going to settings to try to avoid Gemini as much as possible, I want to know who is adding it to an Apple product on purpose.

The only AI I have to spend more time trying to avoid is Copilot.

As a Scout leader I think it's important for people to read the requirements for the merit badge Hegseth had Trump kill with an executive order. This is what these pathetic men are scared of.

Would litigating this provide a chance to prove Elon hacked the 2024 election?

I continued subscribing to our local Memphis paper for a couple years after Gannett bought it, but there was a humongous drop in quality and local content at the same time they kept dramatically raising the price.

As soon as I read those words I thought, "that's some Batman comic book bullshit."

As we prepare for a Superbowl full of AI ads, the most relevant one to rewatch would be from 2000; so full of dot com ads it warrants it's on Wiki article. Game was Jan. 30. Market peaked on March 10.

He understands travel backpack by itself = bad. Travel backpack + coolers, water shoes, etc., = potential epic fun.

Memphis has a large neighborhood called Whitehaven that was built in racial covenant/redlining era, so rampant white flight in later years created the irony that Whitehaven here is a large, middle class black neighborhood.

After witnessing years of the right-wing messaging on guns, it was amazing to watch the NY Post seemlessly pivot to, "It doesn't matter if he was a good person, he had an evil gun." (Yes I know he was unarmed when the murdered him)

Politicians and corporate media are dumbfounded by the idea that ordinary Americans are willing to stand up and die for the ideals politicians and corporate media tell ordinary Americans we're standing up and dying for every time we have a war.

Whenever there is talking of arming teachers, I can think back to high school and know which teachers would've wanted to carry.

I used to love seeing this one come on. It addressed the extremely difficult problem of draining pasta with a colander.

A reactionary man who peaked with high school football couldn't actually support a family of four in a two-story house in Chicago by selling shoes at the mall?

Six years is way too long!

I read you every week in print, on newsprint, in the Memphis Flyer as I've been doing since the '90s. But it was here, recently that you made me really understand the JD bellhop bit.

I've been rereading Bull! by Maggie Mahar and highly recommend it if you haven't read it. As she compares the dot com bust to 70s implosion of the "Nifty 50" stocks you get intense deja vu.

In elementary school Subway Jack scared the hell out of me. In high school Blood and Shadows came out from Vertigo comics and caused me to want more by that Lansdale guy, which led me to Hap and Leonard. Been reading all his work ever since.

Never underestimate the extent that MAGA is fueled by guys who felt like they were near the top of their high school lunch room hierarchy visiting a trendy brunch place and feeling out of place.

Both. Nazis inevitably end up trying to fight a war on two fronts at the same time.

Hello argumentative rando. I literally did vote blue no matter who for the last 12 years and endlessly explained the need for playing defense with the lesser evil in all elections. And I see where we are now.

We tried 12 straight years of opposing Trump with "vote blue no matter who," so we can easily see where that approach got us.

I found a ‘dead’ person on Social Security in Seattle “Dead” Ned Johnson turns out to be very much alive. It took him weeks to convince the system he was breathing and to start clawing his benefits back.

Before aligning themselves with the Groypers the rightwing Boomers should have done a little research into the Third Reich's attitude towards the elderly.

Gotta give them credit for taking a stand right now. They aren't afraid to confront people in the crowd at their shows.

No matter what we do going forward, we're the international relations equivalent of a guy who went on a violent drunken rampage starting fights and brandishing a gun trying to assure people, "That'll never happen again. That's not me."

"Move production of everything to the US!" I'm in the auto repair industry. One of the items about to get hammered with pride increases is wheel weights. The idea that it would be good for the US economy to get back those good, high-paying jobs manufacturing lead wheel weights is absurd.

My serious answer is the Dylann Roof mass shooting. It uncaged something in the minds of a whole lot of white people and they started changing their social profile pics to Confederate flags and yelling they were the real victims.

I had been expecting it. Still infuriating, but I'd been expecting it.

I love when the self-check out asks if you want a printed receipt knowing full well you're about to walk 50 feet to the rent-a-cop cosplaying a Call of Duty character who will demand to see your receipt.

He clearly showed pictures of Robert Downey Jr. playing Tony Stark to his cosmetic surgeons. He's so hung up on trying to cosplay as genius inventor playboy he spent of fortune on surgeries to try to look like an actor's renditon of a comic book version of one

I'm one of those people who intentionally sets clocks 10 minutes fast to help me be on time for things.
