I'll say right now that 150 slots was not nearly enough to capture everyone I'm connected to here! I'm sure I'll make more. 😊

Pretty confused by how TRON became a big-budget movie franchise. Was it a bit hit when it came out? No. Did it become a big hit on video/TV? Also no. Do people have fond nostalgic memories of it? Eh kinda but not really. Was it secretly great and critically acclaimed? No again

The President of the United States is openly seeking revenge on his political opponents.

First Jim Comey. Now Tish James. Anyone who seeks to hold Donald Trump accountable could be next.

Trump is ripping a page right out of the authoritarian handbook.

Breaking News: Letitia James, New York’s attorney general, is said to have been indicted after President Trump pushed the Justice Department to seek charges against her. James, who is accused of committing mortgage fraud, brought a civil case against Trump in 2022. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/10...
Attorney General Letitia James of New York is in front of a microphone. A headline reads: "New York Attorney General Letitia James Indicted After Pressure From Trump."

They are foldable the wrong way!

The point of folding is to make the phones more compact, not bigger!

I thought the Pixel 10 Pro Fold would feel chunky and outdated, but I'm happy to be wrong: this may be thick for a 2025 foldable, but I promise it feels thin enough

"Why would a retired person live in a high rise. Not me"
"No senior wants stairs in their home. Living in a high-rise is a big no."

Well there you have it! All the retired single family home owners say they would never live in a high rise (or heard of elevators). So why build it for others?

“XAI’s financing would be split between about $7.5 billion of equity and as much as $12.5bn of debt, the people said, and structured via a special purpose vehicle. The SPV will be used to buy Nvidia processors, and Musk’s artificial intelligence startup would then rent the chips out for five years”

“Either this machine will be powerful enough to take your job or it’ll blow up and you’ll lose your job in a recession” is a tough outlook for white collar workers over the next few years.

The number of things that have to go wrong for a piece of utter horseshit like this to make it through an editorial or fact-checking process and end up on Forbes is flabbergasting.

@internet.bsky.social @pfrazee.com hey Alex / Paul, a fundamental product issue I'm having with Bluesky is that profiles are not very findable / searchable on the web. occasionally Google finds posts but it never finds an individual profile / landing page

makes outside discoverability hard—thanks!
