  1. I guess I'm still skeptical that we can assume it was a Facebook sanctioned download of data for AI vs. a bunch of Facebook employees. They have 30,000 to 50,000 employees in the timeframe of the downloads. Even when employees know their are being monitored, people still do dumb things. This feels like the legal equivalent of "Trust me bro"
  2. Is there any proof that Facebook used the porn to train the AI models? My interpretation is that the porn site only knows the IPs. It seems just as likely that employees were torrenting the porn for personal use.
  3. Oh dear lord.....that looks awesome
  4. Would like to see Nicolas Hoult as Lex Luthor in his own movie. He was great.
  5. A really good podcast about the "Nazi Block" in Berlin. Hitler wanted his future empire to include huge structures and also ensure their future structures left "beautiful ruins". https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/616-the-nazi-block/
  6. I'm not sure that's the case. On her website, this is about the closest thing I could find about reducing bail: I would not have interpreted that to mean she was going to violate the law to lower bail for defendants. https://www.tanisaforjudge.com/copy-of-home
  7. Where else can I take my parents in 1998?
  8. It's 2 hours of a family drama and 10 mins of zombie action. That's why it's become a love it or hate it movie. I think a lot of the "hate it" crowd forgets that 28 Days Later was 80 mins of human drama and 10 mins of zombie action.

    The Wire

    Don't forget about Lieutenant Daniels! Had a solid career in the Bosch TV series and the John Wick movies.
  10. The buggy infotainment screen is my (small) gripe about the Mach-E. The infotainment system is like buying a Microsoft product in the 90's. You quickly realize you are beta testing it. The ride will be rougher than you expect for a nicer SUV.
  11. Ford and GM are benefiting from the "anything by Tesla" buyers now: https://electrek.co/2025/04/01/ford-mustang-mach-e-starts-2025-strong-was-it-a-top-selling-ev/
  12. Definitely not mental illness or drugs
  13. Not to me! (it was 2023).
  14. 1. Anora 2. The People's Joker 3. Zone of Interest 4. Hundreds of Beavers 5. Civil War 6. Challengers 7. Flow 8. In A Violent Nature Haven’t seen yet: MadS, Brutalist, Red Rooms, A Real Pain, Substance, Do Not Expect Too Much From the End of the World, Green Border, The Beast, La Chimera, Last Stop in Yuma County, My Old Ass Movies that looked mediocre and were mediocre: Blink Twice, Romulus, Heretic, Trap, Juror #2, Love Lies Bleeding, Drive Away Dolls
  15. I'd like to just restate that Common is a horrible actor. It's bad enough that it becomes a distraction. Who keeps on casting him? What dirt does he have on casting directors?

    Anora

    Do you complain that all theaters show is superhero movies and dumb shit? Then go see Anora. It's complex, fun, emotional and wacky. Plus lots of nudity. Go see Anora if you want to see more movies like Anora in theaters.
  17. The key decision is if you want to take the short ferry ride or go through Corpus and skip the ferry. Once you decide about the ferry, that'll help determine the route. Ferry is busy on Friday and Sunday. https://www.txdot.gov/discover/ferry-boat-schedules.html
  18. I wish they hadn't felt the need to create storylines. Based on my very quick research, 90% of the show taping storylines are made up.
  19. One of the "woman chased by serial killer" dramas/thrillers, with some twists. Has blood and violence. Very enjoyable Still playing at some Alamo Drafthouses
  20. Perfect Couple was White Lotus Lite. They tried to match the mood and atmosphere of White Lotus but missed. At least Nicole Kidman got be Nicole Kidman.
  21. Signed up my kid as a mentee. Do you need to find a mentor or does the organization find one for you? I can't find any instructions on the website.
