Screenshot from It's a Wonderful Life of George Bailey in the snow captioned: The reason It's a Wonderful Life (1946) holds up so well is that George's line, "You know how long it takes a working man to save $5000?" has somehow not aged even slightly.

Look, it's bad that it's a cat. What if it's a kid?

Hi Sam,

Netflix, which rarely carries a single movie from before 1980, wants you to know how thrilled they are to acquire that classic piece of franchise IP, Casablanca

Professor Missy Cummings, the head of George Mason University's Autonomy and Robotics Center, said what Waymos don't have compared to human drivers is "object permanence." A driver, she added, would have likely seen the cat go under the car and understood that it had not disappeared.

The thing about how "pixel art was designed for CRTs" always kind of annoys me because: Pokemon wasn't. Pokemon was released on the Game Boy, which used a liquid crystal display. Nobody ever seems to think to bring this up. Drives me mad!!!

The Simpsons already did this.

The Salvation Army is not a charity. They are an evangelical church that uses donated money to actively oppress gay rights. They've been especially cruel to trans people.

It's that giving time of year again, so this is a reminder that no matter how they try to dress it up, the Salvation Army is not a charity.

Please enjoy this beautiful space twink.

Anyway, let's pour one out for the lost potential of these cool lady crew members who only got featured in one episode each. Yeoman Tamura and Lt. Masters in engineering. #startrektos

We are living in a time of folk heroes. John Henry, Ned Ludd, Robin Hood. Break glasses. Disrupt data centres. Fight the enclosure of our world.

Woman Hailed as Hero for Smashing Man's Meta Smart Glasses on Subway A New York subway rider has accused a woman of breaking his Meta smart glasses. She was later hailed as a hero.

Letter to the Guardian. The protection of badgers has a long pedigree (Report, 29 August). Arthur Gore, known as "Boofy", the eighth Earl of Arran, was a fanatical defender of them. He was also a tireless campaigner for the rights of homosexuals. In 1967 he managed to push through a law in the Lords that decriminalised homosexuality but failed to pass a bill to outlaw the cruel hunting of badgers. When asked why he had not received enough support for his badger bill, he replied: "Not many badgers in the House of Lords." Tony Lywood Keswick, Cumbria
