Television reporter Dick Carlson outs tennis player Renee Richards as Richard Raskind, a male who underwent a sex change last year to become a woman, and who is now vying to compete in next year’s U.S. Open tournament.
Carlson argues that Richards is a male, and that Richards competing in a women’s tournament could endanger the level of competition for future generations such as his son, Tucker.

@ayushthehipster@ratchetpizzas@ANTHR0POID It is not the exact same thing, not to be pedantic. I never liked the idea but got one as a gift and it really is so much easier to read off than a traditional LED display it’s crazy. Makes reading at night / low light much easier too. Didn’t wanna like it but here we are.
@martha_stickle@zillowgonewild Zoning laws would make this a nonstarter. Kind of doubt the plot it’s on could even support multiple floors even if the area permitted it. But a finished basement with a 1.5 story tall submarine periscope to peer over the ugly building in the way…. Hmmm 🤔
A research team building this for people who can’t speak is a good thing.
The question is what the ad business attached to that team does with a working brain-to-text pipeline.
Same tech, very different motive depending on who’s holding it.
@bread157@ayatollah1988@Forever_Wario Good point, sorry. I still don’t think sanctioned gambling is going to have a healthy existence in America in my lifetime though and it felt a lot less dangerous when it was relegated to reservations/Atlantic City/Las Vegas. A healthy dose of distance that doesn’t degrade sports.
@DuncanS21@bread157@Forever_Wario I don’t know how this isn’t more obvious to people. The downstream effects of normalized gambling are going to kneecap future generations’ financial literacy.
@bread157@ayatollah1988@Forever_Wario Would you really call the current state of proliferated legalized gambling in America “strictly regulated”? At any point whatsoever in the last 5 years? Mainstream apps have prediction markets now. Normalizing it is awful for the minds of young people of the present and future.
