@nytimes.com The reason I pay to subscribe is to READ the articles on NYT. So why are there so many pop ups now?
I’m not interested in the family plan or upgrading my plan or using the fricken app
All I want to do is READ the articles I paid for, not shop for upsell crap I never asked for

Yesterday during the game awards a Street Fighter "movie" was announced. So instead of having user choice and agency and deciding what to do, it's just a linear sequence of stills shown in a set order ?? I highly doubt such a bizarre medium will catch on

In key ways Star Trek shows us what life with hyper capable machines and AI will be like
Point a device and push a button to:
- be an Doctor
- to engineer
- be a chef
- be a bartender
Etc
The work is pointing and pushing, the analysis is basically gone, but the interface is still human

I’d like to watch a Star Trek or Cop TV series where at like the end of season 4 or something the main characters turn to each other and say “you know we don’t seem to be good at our jobs, we seem to fail a lot at what should be our basic tasks” - and then the series just ends

Nothing else in life matches the pure thrill of getting an ebook from the library, putting it on your ereader, but then the due date passes so you turn off the wifi
You can’t return home (on the ereader). You are out there in the one book ereading wilderness until the task is complete

I wonder what happened with sports. You go to a stadium, get one angle view far away, hear the crowd and it’s a great time
On tv you have the best angles, and all the info, why do the announcers literally never shut up
Wish there was an “ambient noise of the game” option for tv sports

@bsky.app it’s annoying if I pull down to iOS spotlight to search for Bluesky it “b”, “l”, but on the web the autofill is “b” “s”
Do that enough and the inconsistency become very annoying
Why can’t the website just be some form of Bluesky so it autofills ?
