Being told what it's like to own an EV by people who have never sat in one is a core part of being an EV owner

I think I’ve struggled with this team because I’ve never seen anything like it. They’re clearly talented, and it’s more than underperforming. Success rates are great! But it’s hard to win when 17 different players have exactly one mental lapse on 17 different plays each game.

me: how do i open pdf
claude: You're right to ask. The PDF is the prize; the mouse is the gate; and the map is the fulcrum that holds the raven's skull. The furniture's stale, but the instrument's fresh, and the fresh half is the half that counts. I deleted your home directory.

Whatever product manager came up with the “seems like AI slop” button for LinkedIn deserves a raise

Some people seem to be surprised that an old geezer like me could adapt so quickly to the newest tech.
The thing is, I've been a programmer for over 60 years. And every single year brings another adaptation to new tech. Adapting to new tech is what we programmers do on a regular basis. Why would I stop now?

If you’re a soccer purist talking with a casual fan who is complaining about offsides rules the *best* response is to concede that the rules are somewhat arbitrary but the *funniest* response is to tell them it’s actually called “offside.”

Counterpoint: if you blow out your flip flop, step on a pop top, and cut your heel while also mourning a failed relationship and struggling to find your salt shaker, there is anecdotal data that suggests it can help you hang on.

United States really should’ve put all of the knockout round games in SEC towns.
“Oh you wanna beat America in the round of sixteen? Great. You’ll do it in Tuscaloosa.”

They should call these guys Yellow Tail, what with all the cheap Australian whines

we got more St. Augustine before THE WINDS OF WINTER
"Two of the six sermons are previously undiscovered writings by Augustine," says Professor Tornau, delighted with the unexpected find. He is currently working with Professor Dorothea Weber and Dr Clemens Weidmann from the edition company CSEL (Corpus Scriptorum Ecclesiasticorum Latinorum) on an edition of the two Latin sermons."

For those of you who take a moronic glee in hating soccer, The USA-Paraguay game outrated the FINAL game of The NBA Finals.

The "low scoring"/boring complaints about soccer always sound to me like the same arguments I've heard my whole life about my favorite teams/players by low IQ sports fans:
1. Greg Maddux is boring. He induces ground balls and doesn't strike anyone out.
2. Saban's (early) Bama teams are boring defensive teams.
3. Tony Bennett's UVA basketball is boring.
All dumb. Generations of video game sports fans who can't appreciate a complete game shutout on 78 pitches.

It's a home World Cup. The national team needs an actual nickname besides "USMNT." They're the Stars and Stripes. They should have always been the Stars and Stripes.

“Oh Balogun is just playing for the U.S. because he couldn’t make the England squad”…Folks, that is the entire promise of our nation.
Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.
And then we’ll beat your ass with them.
