Looks like word of Calicut's malfeasance has finally reached Atlanta. Or maybe Kirby decided to let the local media acknowledge it in their typical know-nothing fashion. https://www.fox5atlanta.com/news/harris-county-crime-teen-killed-weekend-pool-party-was-charged-july-6-road-rage-incident?utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=facebook&fbclid=IwQ0xDSwLt0JxleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHg4MLgBkGNYKEwu2i09bmoBz11KgjjE03HftFPDZsooWIlekkLM-WE_-d_xi_aem_N-LB_SGJ_Ev9f--NlDCgfw#8c6g8s5171xnf1vlbqf1cpycs1xee1uc -

But the vets they have aint the type of guys you want leading. CP does resolve that.

USC has multiple dudes signed for 5 million this cycle. Sure, it's spread out over years. But the point is, there is no limit. Hence the whole NOW Y'ALL GET THE IDEA part of my post. There will come a kid who makes a 5 million a year deal with some school.

People trying to bring the Shuttle Discovery to Texas

The *only* political comment I'll make here is that NASA has done more than enough to "get away from their science mission" on their own. There's lots of wasteful spending, poor contractor management, "non-primary-mission" programs, etc. Having said that, yes - if dedicated to primary exploration and overseen by budgetary hawks, I'm 100% in favor of an increased budget. But right now, there's little to no accountability and a sense of entitlement that isn't helping anything. (political rant over, apologies) -
UUUU sp jumped because they’re right in the middle of the rare earths game and our country (finally) is focused on reducing our dependence on foreign sources for REE. Energy Fuels is also the largest U.S. uranium provider. Big tech will need a >lot< of power for AI and nuclear power is the perfect match. The stock is just beginning to move with all kinds of upside. If you’ve held UUUU for some time (like me), perhaps, reconsider selling. Don’t want you kicking yourself when UUUU sp is higher at the EOY.

Letterman’s 2014 ratings were about 2.8 million viewers(one of his worst statistical years), almost triple of the current late show version. Assuming 12 years of inflation, Letterman was probably cheaper to produce and faced less competition for add dollars. They were profitable even while paying Letterman $14 million a year The whining about the cancellation is wild, economics/ratings be damned. Stewart out there crying that CBS should keep paying $20 million to Steve to lose $40million, that’s called job security. I wonder if Steve offered to take a pay cut to try to help keep his staff and crew employed? The Late Show is the WNBA of entertainment at the moment. Pay him what he’s worth! The difference will be that the W will turn a profit this year, Steven not so much.

Yeah, I was not a super huge Ozzy fan. Black Sabbath was mostly before my time, and I was always more interested in the guitarists on Ozzy's solo albums than I was in Ozzy himself. So since the news, I've been trying to pin down what made Ozzy the popular icon he is. For someone who represented a musical genre, he really didn't do much to define it. I mean, he didn't have an objectively great singing voice. He didn't compose the music or write the lyrics that were responsible for this new musical genre and which made him famous. I think he maybe only came up with some of the vocal melodies in his Sabbath and solo catalog. Musically, he was a front man in the most cynical use of the word. A figurehead who attained heights with a lot of others creativity doing most of the heavy lifting. And he had this whole career outside of making music that was engineered primarily by his wife. So what made Ozzy an icon? Ultimately, I think it was that Ozzy was Ozzy and nothing more or less. The Alamo-pissing, bat-head-biting Prince of Darkness. And people of a certain age and social standing loved him for it. He was the square peg to society's round hole who really had no capacity to be anything notable in established and traditional ways. So he lived life without much regard for if or how it might line up to anyone else's expectations and damn if he didn't wind up digging himself a hell of a square hole to exist in. That's something that resonates, man. Timelessly, across generations. Its the struggle of all young people coming of age and wondering how they could possibly become anything of note in a world that they seem to live on the fringes of. If Ozzy could do it, they can do it.

The local solution, for now, as Seceda's pastoral vibe gets ruined. Not sure this solves anything. Maybe make it only accessible to hikers. https://www.rainews.it/tgr/trento/articoli/2025/07/seceda-tornello-overtourism-pedaggio-dolomiti-7c8b4460-1f46-4e8c-852c-c2f162285e1b.html

The foundational problem is 1) giving a goal-defined task to 2) an entity that literally has no humanity or morality. Without programming in all of the guardrails that are embedded in most human thinking (sociopaths being a notable outlier), there are no limits or boundaries. For example, imagine giving AI the problem of "at present, the world can only grow enough food to feed 7 billion people. There are 7.5 billion people right now, and starvation is rising. What can we do to make our food supply go farther?" You might well get an answer of "euthanize 500 million people." That's a perfectly logical way of dealing with a limited food supply. Sure, it's evil and murderous, but you just asked AI to solve the problem stated....if you fail to give it detailed parameters (like "solve this without killing anyone," simple things like that), or an overarching set of rules, then you WILL end up with results like that. Sometimes unintended, because you just didn't think of the alternatives when you gave it the task. I'm reminded of when I told my 5 yr old son, about to start T-ball, a tip to get him ahead of the game: you can tag the runner to get him out. So, the first game, the first batter hits the ball, and my son charges him, slaps him with his glove, looks at me and yells "DAD! I TAGGED THE RUNNER!" All the other dads look at me. I sheepishly confess "yeah...I forgot to tell him that you have to have the ball when you tag him." Failure to provide underlying/background rules and restrictions leads to bad outcomes. This is Asimov Three Laws of Robotics shit, and we're going to fail at it, miserably.

You might want to take some time and do some research. In short, the producers wanted to truly get their hands in content and make it appealing to a "broader" audience. Chapelle has spoken pretty openly about it and it's worth understanding that it was less of a Dave lost his mind and more Dave wanted to continue his creative endeavors without censorship or heavy handed moderation of his comedy.

Below you'll see three pictures I took around 2014 from Seceda in Ortisei... so calm and peaceful. It was amazing. This was just down the valley from where I learned to ski as a kid. Now? this is the line to ride the cable car up. Dude... this pisses me off to no end. I loathe LOATHE overtourism.
