Thankfully there seems to be less of them now, or at least I stumbled into a group that's generally sound. But there are exceptions, sadly.

The guy at the football who ceaselessly shouts instructions at everyone when he's not on the ball and sulks when you don't do exactly as he says. 👎

it's cool how the "libertarians" behind the site who's state goal was "the user defines their experience" and which did not originally even have a BLOCK function have become the Tone Police, deciding what everyone should see with layers of unaccountable algorithmic filters

😂

Clogged arteries are the new flex, etc.

Pafos (sic) FC just beat Villarreal. Little bit bonkers.

A pint of lager at the pub.

Champions League night at a very chill pub. Fried things are on the way.

"When I was a boy, the first chef I ever studied under was my mother, who said that unless it is pasta, without a potato dish, it's not a meal. It may be food, but it's not a meal."

*soothingly makes the most technically complex potato dish you've ever seen*

"There. What could be simpler?"

Absolutely hilarious that Marco Pierre White, who spent 30 years screaming at people, is secretly an ASMR video guy now.

I love those videos. The whispering, the quietly-delivered indirect jabs at other chefs, the patient stirring. So good.

Deutsche Bank explores hedges for data centre exposure as AI lending booms Executives discussing options including shorting basket of artificial intelligence stocks or using derivatives to transfer risk

"Executives inside the bank have discussed ways to manage its exposure to the booming industry as so-called hyperscalers pour hundreds of billions of dollars into building infrastructure for their AI needs that is increasingly funded by debt."

"Taking the fear out", an old Cypriot ritual:

* A pan face-down over a fire.
* Think of what you fear, the ritualist's hand on your head.
* Two caged birds close by.
* Water poured onto the pan so it hisses.
* Leap over that and the fire.
* The birds will absorb your fear.

The board and many investors argue that only Musk can deliver on his promises to transform Tesla into an artificial-intelligence juggernaut delivering millions of self-driving robotaxis and humanoid robots. If Musk hits all the board’s performance goals within a decade, Tesla’s market value will have grown to $8.5 trillion – with Musk owning about a quarter of the stock.

That's a huge 'if' considering all the empty promises he's delivered over the years and how many times he's pushed deadlines forward.

"Tesla shareholders will vote Thursday on the stark choice presented by the board: pay Musk up to $878 billion in company stock or take the risk he will leave."

I can't believe this is framed as even a remotely difficult decision.

So basically Disney jam-packed this thing with call-backs, cameos and easter eggs. Which is what they truly value instead of originality and even remotely bold storytelling.

if X gon' give it to ya, solve for y

Yeah, can imagine why it was eventually wound down.

No, never.

Both of 'em! ha

I played the mobile version and it didn't come close to scratching that itch, lol.

That's the thing. The match engine is whatever. But I saw people explain in detail how it doesn't feel like FM in between matches. That it's become more streamlined and console-like. Which would be disappointing if true.

Knee was hurting. Went to play football. Knee hurts even more. Darwin can kiss my dirty Puma Kings.

I haven't played FM in almost two years now, at least not properly. Plus I saw some negative comments about this early version. In any case, I'm also going to wait before I try it.

Are you giving it a go?

Turning on lossless even when using mobile data just to listen to the dustiest rap songs produced with equipment so rudimentary MacGyver would pass on it.
