The Whale is available on Crave.
Watched the entire film start to finish.
Brendan Fraser's performance is amazing.
The supporting actors are outstanding, too.
Karate Kid: Legends is available on Crave, too.
Turned it off after 30 minutes.
Doubt I'll give it another try.

I have let my colleagues at Global BC know that November 18 is going to be my last day with the company and as a reporter at the Legislature. I have made the decision to take my passion and try something new and I am deeply grateful to all of the viewers and to my colleagues. #bcpoli

Bad AI supplanting human expertise is an issue that transcends any one field, but man—not many people on earth whose knowledge and dedication deserves respect like LIBRARIANS.
The long-running ideological war on libraries, education, and government workers is not separate from AI boosterism. It is the same ideological war on human knowledge and expertise. In some cases AI is being used to directly supercharge this effort:

AI Is Supercharging the War on Libraries, Education, and Human Knowledge
"Fascism and AI, whether or not they have the same goals, they sure are working to accelerate one another."

I'm happy with my birthday present from the federal government.
Coverage under the Canadian Dental Care Plan.
When I retired from banking last year, I no longer had dental benefits through an employer.
At my age, 57 as of today, I am eligible.
My portion of cleaning and X-rays, $60.
Great deal.
