  1. I have to admit SNL really missed out by dropping this guy because he is perfect for them. I don't know any comedian right now that can take a 10 second joke and stretch it out to 10 minutes than this guy can.
  2. I was just coming here to post this. And also this link https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6658687/2025/09/25/israel-fifa-ban-trump-uefa/?source=athletic_user_shared_article_copylink&smid=url-share-ta UEFA is potentially going to vote to expel Israel under the same rule which they used to kick Russia out. And Trump doesn’t like that so he’s looking to apply pressure. Curious to see how this plays out and how it runs up on FIFAs rules against government interference. https://fwblaw.co.za/understanding-fifas-third-party-non-interference-principle/

  5. Holy shit, that's the most I've ever laughed at Tim Allen. He also makes so much more sense now.
  6. Cool goal - but I was pretty sure that was offsides regardless.
  7. LOL - I said this and only looked up the EPL. In the UCL and Carabo Cups Spurs open with home games - UCL last week and Carabo today. So we've seen Tottenham at home in their games AD. HOLY SHIT!!! WHAT A GOAL!!!!

  9. Dang, they should have fired him yesterday. It was the 18th anniversary of his speech. Would have been poetic.

  11. Mars? Now Elon throwing pedo accusations around like candy makes sense.
  12. how exactly does this insurance claim go? So wait. You just drove over the giant piece of metal. While you let autonomous driving handle it? And there’s a video on YouTube? … hold please. … click … are you still there? Yes. After reviewing the vi … evidence, we are rejecting your insurance claim. Good bye.

  14. Who could have seen that coming? Everyone - except the Tesla.
  15. I might note that Covid came at a very bad time for the US. Society was already fracturing as "us vs them" and Covid amplified that (hence multiplication not addition in my equation above). We were fucked up due to social, political and racial issues, Covid drove us further into our silos and the results are where we are now.
  16. I don't understand the fascination with Starlink as the end all be all. Don't get me wrong - they are a very solid ISP. But that's it - they are an ISP. If I have any real terrestrial high-speed alternative, I will use that instead of Starlink. Sure they are going to dominate a lot of the market for airlines etc. But the way everyone talks , they make it sound as if they are going to be used by everyone and that just won't be the case. Plus he is going to face competition in this market. I just see them as one among many.
  17. Let's also not ignore the fact that the Oracle-OpenAI deal is basically made up numbers predicated on a big hopes and dreams. Just to catch you all up https://www.wsj.com/business/openai-oracle-sign-300-billion-computing-deal-among-biggest-in-history-ff27c8fe This deal drove Oracle to the moon, it made Larry Ellison the richest man in the world. When you look at the deal: A. It's really $30 Billion a year for 10 years B. OpenAI doesn't just have that money laying around. In the end, its also smoke and mirrors based on OpenAI constantly growing. Maybe they will, but maybe they won't. Then what? That said, Oracle will have the datacenter and make bank selling compute to anyone else. But still, those deals aren't yet made. BTW - If you didn't know Oracle is really an acronym. It should be O.R.A.C.L.E. - "One Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison"
