Idk who is actually to blame for the MSG watch party falling through but given Dolan’s track record I doubt there are even a dozen people in the whole city inclined to believe he isn’t the one at fault
Have never seen a single Minionsverse film but I gotta respect how absolutely unhinged they’re getting. Like wdym the minions summon Cthulhu and shoggoths and there’s a 15-minute sequence spoken entirely in minionese
My favorite multiview lately has been the NBA playoffs + NHL playoffs + WNBA + SVU combo. Just a slightly different sort of three-letter acronym with that last one there but you know what why not

This reader comment on a NY Times column where Ross Douthat ponders that maybe God is speaking to us through A.I. is an absolute fastball on the corner with movement, and deserves a column. "Lightening was once mysterious too; mystery did not make Zeus correct" is perfect.
Truly baffles me how Polymarket can claim with a straight face to not be a sports betting platform when they straight up buy ad space on the side of the hockey rink to say LIVETRADE TONIGHT’S GAME ON POLYMARKET

You’d think that Microsoft’s AI would be able to guess that in an email reply to a Christina, the first word was very likely going to be “Christina.” But no. Its best guess was “Christmas.” Copilot might literally be worse at this than pre-smartphone T9 predictive text
Barely exaggerating here: the other day I was replying to an email from a Christina. Had typed in the first six letters of her name when the copilot autofill recommendation appeared. It thought the first word of my reply to Christina was going to be “Christmas”
At work we just got copilot in outlook, which so far seems to do nothing but suggest what word I might want to type next with a lower hit rate than random chance
@saniyafatma1278 What a fascinating engagement bait account. Based on a quick scroll of tweets from just the past twelve hours, Sara has had at least six different pets die today, lost several others (as well as a husband) over the past few weeks, and it’s maybe eight other pets’ birthday today
