Dropped a very brief overview of Necrons and my attempt at covering their big personality swings over the years on threads.

Hearing @romanmars.bsky.social do a custom voice ad for the City of Dallas today was surreal.

Are you the Tesla board?

Here’s what you do to make sure you don’t go down with the ship:

1. Spin off Superchargers into a separate company.

2. Spin off Solar and Batteries.

Keep both companies under a single holding company, and ditch the cars entirely.

Gyu Don is what was required this evening.

Also Korean oysters. Very tasty.

NGL that #Severance S2E8 could have been interspersed with another episode. We learned some important stuff but that was a …. Slow 37 minutes of TV. Maybe like 15 of it was actually stuff happening?

Huge implications in retrospect though. It’s not S2E7 though.

One of the weird things about watching the earlier SciFi … sigh *SyFy*-produced episodes of The Expanse versus the Amazon ones is the clear and obvious commercial breaks.

Man this show is good. The subtle genre shifts over time are wonderful.

Video games are a better example, probably better than any other media, that [too much] money ruins [most] art.

There’s exceptions on all sides, but there’s less in gaming than there are in film, TV, or music.

At Polygon @mmcwhertor.bsky.social reports on the email the head of global streaming and games for Warner Bros. Discovery sent to staff announcing the closures in which he talked about "getting our swagger back" one fiscal quarter at a time. www.polygon.com/news/529310/...

Guys how do I turn off individual notifications every time someone likes my post? I have priority notifications bets turned on, but it makes no difference. @bsky.app

I am greatly enjoying the perks system in #Overwatch. Like a lot. It’s made me focus on specific characters a little more whereas before I was being too “jack of all trades” a bit much.

Also Mei OP.

It has come to my attention that apparently “for hire DMs” are a thing and maybe do birthday parties for groups of inexperienced people?

I have interest.

Brisket complete. One of the juiciest? Amazing bark. One of the crispest smoke rings I’ve ever done.

Big win for a #Costco impulse buy.

We definitely don’t talk about #Craigslist ’s role in gutting local #newspapers. As much as we can deride consolidation and the web in general, nothing killed local newsrooms in small communities like the loss of classified revenue.

God this was bad. I want to send Paramount a bill for my time. This is easily the worst thing with the Star Trek name attached to it … ever.

#StarTrek #SciFi #Section31
Starting the #StarTrek #Section31 movie and 10 minutes in and… well. At least I was braced for this.

Apple Stores no longer stocking the Belkin anti-glare film for iPhones that can be used with the cool “perfect placement” machines they use is my very minor annoyance of the day/week/year/decade.

And Zagg doesn’t seem to carry them in store either. Sigh.

Behold, the nicest CAPCHA.

(It's also not a very good captcha system, so I assume this company just refused to buy like... any standard capcha? Isn't Google CAPCHA free for a good amount of clicks?)

I was once an Apple Genius/Expert in-store.

The Apple family account on separate devices is insane. Trying help my sister set up my niece’s ipad (9) … my sister’s stuff being sync to the iPad because it’s her iCloud, just all kinds of nonsense.

Huge fail on Apple’s part.

Over on Threads a #meta employee (Tomer Bar) hid my reply to his “our ads will be good ads” post because… well… check the pic.

Maybe because Meta can’t stem the tide of shit #ads?

Scant vacation is probably the number one factor for the lack of sustained #protests in the modern US.

Meanwhile the French are like “what did you do on your holidays, Jacque?”

“Oh nothing crazy, blocked traffic, set some construction equipment on fire, nice refreshing time.”
