The world deserves more people like Dolly Parton. The world deserves more people like Tim Curry. The world deserves more people like Peter Cullen. The world deserves more people like Eric Bauza. The world deserves more people like Patrick Stewart. The world deserves more creative people who inspire

Since people WILL miss this. #FFXIV In Keybound Brawler you only need to type periods, commas and spaces. All other punctuation is unneeded (except if you get that ä - then it's ae, or just use an international keyboard and type ä) (I missed this. Don't miss it like me!)

Sir Ian McKellen has made a statement on the tragic passing of Sir Patrick Stewart. “He wore his heart on his sleeve, which made him a man to rely on, to admire and in my case, love.”

PSA for people with epilepsy or have sensitive eyes in the new typing game in ffxiv!!! there is a mechanic in wave 3 final boss where the words are blurred in intervals and makes the edges of the screen + the word boxes go static in intervals. This is unavoidable. Pls be aware for your safety!

eBay users! Don't ignore today's email, even though it looks like a boring standard update to the User Privacy Notice. They want to use your data to train AI models. If you click the link over the words "the right to object", it takes you to a page with a toggle button letting you opt out.

Screenshot from a section of eBay UK's r User Privacy Notice.
It reads: 
AI model training

When training, testing, and improving generative AI models, we rely primarily on publicly available data. Some public datasets may incidentally include personal data, and in some cases we may also use certain user personal data, such as information about your use of our Services, including the items you list, sell, view, or buy, where we determine it is necessary and proportionate for a specific use (for example, to train AI models that improve product recommendations). Prior to training, we take steps to mitigate potential privacy impacts, such as de-identifying the data or applying other privacy-preserving techniques. In some jurisdictions, the data used for training as described in this section is not considered personal data; where our AI training does involve personal data as defined under applicable law, including in the European Economic Area (EEA), Switzerland, and the United Kingdom, the legal basis of our legitimate interest is set out in section 3.4.

See section 6 for more details on your rights. To learn more about specific training use cases and our processing of your personal data for generative AI training purposes, including the right to object  to such processing for certain users, visit our Artificial Intelligence at eBay page.

Last week above the city of Rhenen in The Netherlands. I had been wanting to photograph this church tower with these kinds of conditions for years, and I finally managed to do so. What a morning.
