Expectations for the next Bond are much too high and it’s impossible to please everyone. Here’s the solution: don’t cast the role. Shoot the entire movie from a first-person perspective, allowing the viewer to imagine that they themselves are James Bond

wild situation where accessing meta services without a robust adblocker in the UK could mean YOU have committed a criminal offence we are so far past the point where any sort of healthy govt would have clamped down on big tech. the reasons it hasn't are about 25% tech illiteracy, 75% open bribery
Matt Burgess (WIRED)@mattburgess1.bsky.social · 10h agoNEW: Over the last few months, Meta has run dozens of paid ads that included AI-generated CSAM. The ads, some of which were linking out to “nudify” apps, targeted men in the US, UK, and a dozen European countries. Some were running in the last few days

after they called it for el-Sayed this person changed their handle/display name to “have to earn my vote”

“Ai doesn’t judge me” YES BECAUSE IT ISNT HUMAN. Being judged for doing weird shit like DMing someone three pages of argument so you know that isn’t socially acceptable is actually helpful, I’m sorry.
Somehow things that would have been a background gag in a Verhoeven movie are now just real
If AIPAC's commitment to arming a rogue state isn't enough for you, I cannot emphasize enough that this organization is just a slush fund for GOP donors to influence Dem races. Their donor base is mostly conservatives who want Republicans to win.

im begging you doofuses to learn one thing about how space travel works so you can hate on him Correctly, as i do
The Verge@theverge.com · 6h ago"SpaceX remains its own biggest customer. There just aren’t enough other people who want its rockets. And, I dunno, maybe if the rockets were a primary focus of the company, SpaceX wouldn’t be in danger of blasting a new crater into the Moon with its space trash." Read more: buff.ly/d9lBTQN
people often say mean things about my body when i post videos on the internet, so i'm thankful to have a thick skin. unfortunately, though, the main thing people criticize about my body is how weird and thick my skin is. and that REALLY gets to me
It's a tough pill to swallow for centrists. On the one hand you have Haley Stevens, all-American, all-Michigan girl from the suburbs of Detroit. On the other hand you have Abdul El-Sayed, who is from the exact same suburb but looks like he might be evil.

This is worth amplifying (also this podcast is rad), that Roman slavery was, y'know, slavery. In fact, all slavery is horrifying, but the broader 'Mediterranean' slavery tradition (which is also, by the by, the ancestor of Atlantic slavery) is one of the *more extreme* such traditions.
Claire E. Aubin@ceaubin.com · last wk.Next time someone tries to tell you that Roman slavery was different or better than other forms of slavery, tell them to listen to last week’s episode of @thisguysucked.com and/or buy Emma’s book.

The technological solution to racist policing being abused by the police until it becomes publicly untenable is a particular type of dark irony.
404 Media@404media.co · 11h agoNEW: Police in Wisconsin used Flock to determine that a man “travels to Michigan frequently,” where marijuana is legal, then back to Wisconsin, where it is illegal. They then used his travel across state lines as tracked by Flock as part of the probable cause justification to search his car.

Granted I'm not smart enough to be a SpaceX investor but if I was, I think I would have questions about why you need humanoid robots working in factories on the moon, presumably making things that would need to get shipped back to earth
