Reviewbrah, exhausted, stares at the camera. In his hand, a taco. "Everything Keeps Getting Worse" the title says.

It's simple: The Dodgers are the bad guys and whoever they're playing against are the Good Guys

They Live is such an incredible movie but the funniest thing about it is when people are like "It's so prescient!" no, it's just that things haven't gotten any better in the past four decades!

“Newly added on the criterion channel” graphic and its one of the alien skeleton people from They Live

It’s just a funny juxtaposition even though They Live obviously deserves to be there. Great movie, great channel

In my 30 years as a #StarTrek researcher, this will forever be one of my coolest finds: This screenshot from #StarTrekTNG's "Qpid" shows both 24th/25th century Starfleet Captain Jean-Luc Picard ⬅️ and 20th/21st century thespian Sir Patrick Stewart ➡️ on screen at the same time. How, you ask? 🧵 1/6

This new catalogue of movies on Criterion Channel is really bringing me back to watching these kinds of movies with middle school friends at sleepovers or cousins who were way older than me in grandmas basement

This whole section really.

Finally: AI cannot do your job, but an AI salesman can 100% convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can't do your job, and when the bubble bursts, the money-hemorrhaging "foundation models" will be shut off and we'll lose the AI that can't do your job, and you will be long gone, retrained or retired or "discouraged" and out of the labor market, and no one will do your job.
AI is the asbestos we are shoveling into the walls of our society and our descendants will be digging it out for generations:

A lot of you are clearly totally unfamiliar with Pete Fairbanks, who absolutely was not making fun of the Orioles.
He is one of the nerdiest people in MLB and was absolutely complimenting the Orioles by bringing up their love for LEGO. That was a completely genuine statement from him.
