Re-watched the first episode of Roswell (after at least 15 years). Too bad the main character is played by Shiri Appleby, and Katherine Heigl only has a supporting role. My theory on this casting decision is that teenage female viewers would be turned off if they had Heigl play the main character because they'd be jealous of how beautiful she is, but they can imagine themselves being the more ordinary-looking Appleby.

This is the Trump name change that I fully approve of. When the next Democratic president undoes all of the Trump name changes, I hope they keep this one, but they probably won't.

This post screams scam to me. Is she trying to get people to visit her OF? Some kind of prostitute? Looking for sugar daddies to give her free money and and not even get sex out of it? Something even more sinister?

AI has been AI since before I was born. SI is either Sports Illustrated or YES in Spanish. What the f*** is wrong with Trump?
When will The Wall Street Journal start calling Artificial Intelligence (AI), a very bad and inaccurate name, SI (Super Intelligence), the name which virtually everyone else is using, or soon will be. In short order, we will be officially BANNING the term, “AI/Artificial Intelligence,” in all relevant documents, and everything else, due to its inaccuracy. Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP ( TS: Oct 27 2026, 12:14 PM ET )​​​​​​​​‍‌​​‌​‍​‍‌​‍‍​​‍‌‍‍‍‍​‍​‍‍‌‍‌‍‌‌​‌‍‍

Second deadly train crash in Spain this year. Obviously the people in charge of their train signaling systems are incompetent.
BREAKING: At least 64 people were killed and 80 injured, reports say, as rescue teams search through the wreckage after two high-speed trains collided in central Spain. nbcnews.com/world/spain/spai…

Can white people even get into Harvard?
Asian-Americans in Harvard’s Incoming Class More Than Double, to 43.2 Percent Newly released data on the Harvard College class of 2030 say the class is 43.2 percent Asian-American, a record high and more than double the level when Students for Fair Admissions first sued Harvard alleging racial discrimination in admissions. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 2023 that Harvard was unlawfully using race as a factor in admissions. Since then, the numbers of Hispanic and black students in the incoming Harvard classes have dipped, while the numbers of Asian-Americans have soared.

I agree with this. Is Trump going senile? He’s older than Joe Biden was four years ago.
I have no idea why renaming AI is so bizarrely important to Trump. Nobody cares about the name he chose. Nobody is using it or will use it. And it’s not even technically accurate because “super intelligence” already had an agreed upon, widely adopted definition. This is the weirdest political hill to die on. It gains you nothing. Not a single ordinary American in the country, anywhere, cares deeply about making sure people say “SI” instead of “AI.” We are days away from a major election and this bullshit is the focus? Just baffling.

Why can't we put this guy in charge of Iran? But not a democracy, because there's probably too many brainwashed Shi'ites who would vote the Ayatollahs back into power.
ملت شریف و شجاع ایران، جمهوری اسلامی امروز دیگر آن رژیمی نیست که یک سال پیش بر ایران حکومت می‌کرد. این رژیم اکنون ضعیف‌تر از هر زمان دیگری است و رهبرِ مفقود و دیگر سرکردگان آن، بیش از هر چیز از قدرت ملت ایران هراس دارند؛ از یک خیزش سراسری و مؤثر که به عمر این رژیم شیطانی پایان دهد. این فرقه جنایتکار و سپاه پاسدارانِ تروریستِ آن، میهن عزیز ما را به جنگ کشانده و موجودیت ایران را به خطر انداخته‌اند. سلطه سپاه بر ارکان کشور و چپاول منابع ملی، عامل اصلی وخامت روزافزون وضعیت اقتصادی و امنیتی ایران است. این تبهکاران، نه نانی برای مردم باقی گذاشته‌اند، نه امنیتی و نه امیدی به آینده. آنها برای حفظ قدرت خود، حاضرند ایران و ایرانی را قربانی کنند. اما میهن زخم‌خورده و رنجور ما، دیگر تابِ تحملِ خسارت‌های بیشتر را ندارد. ما باید دست در دست هم بگذاریم و از هر فرصتی برای نجات ایران بهره ببریم. ما هم برای سرنگونی جمهوری اسلامی و هم برای اداره ایران پس از آن برنامه داریم؛ برنامه‌ای روشن با هدف حفظ امنیت و ثبات کشور در دوران گذار، تضمین آزادی‌های اساسی مردم و تامین نیازهای ضروری شهروندان. خطاب به نیروهای نظامی، انتظامی و امنیتی: به ملت بپیوندید و در روز آزادی ایران در کنار مردم بایستید تا امان‌نامه دریافت کنید. اما اگر هم‌چنان در کنار سرکوبگران بمانید و در جنایت علیه مردم مشارکت کنید، در برابر قانون و عدالت پاسخگو خواهید شد. من این بار، نه فقط از نیروهای نظامی و دولتی، بلکه از همه ایرانیان، از اقشار گوناگون، که از این رژیم به ستوه آمده‌اند و خواهان آینده‌ای آزاد و آباد برای ایران هستند، دعوت می‌کنم از طریق نشانی t.me/BarkhizIranBot در تلگرام، مستقیماً با تیم من ارتباط برقرار کنند و همین امروز به کارزار همکاری ملی برای نجات ایران بپیوندند. ما آماده‌ایم تا بر جمهوری اسلامی پیروز شویم و آینده‌ای تازه برای ایران، منطقه و جهان رقم بزنیم. پاینده ایران، رضا پهلوی

They're putting her in prison for working at a job she had to in order to make the money she needed to raise her kids by herself (on account of kicking the husband out for being a wife beater). And now the kids don't have a mother.
Bodycam footage shows Florida deputies arresting a mother at an airport after authorities say she left her four children, ages 9, 11, 12 and 14, home alone while traveling to Las Vegas for work. Irene Miller, 50, was taken into custody Friday as she stepped off a plane. Two days earlier, one of her children had called 911 after a dumbbell fell on her 9-year-old brother's head. When deputies arrived at the family's Kissimmee home, they found the children without adult supervision and had the injured boy taken to a hospital, where he was treated and released. Miller now faces four counts of child neglect.

Yemen looked like a nice place back when it was colonized!
Wow, this is what Yemen looked like in the 1960s under British rule. That was over half a century ago, but it looked decades more advanced than Yemen does today. It’s almost unbelievable compared to what the country has become. And it’s a testament to how quickly a country can collapse once Islam reigns supreme.

The names of the "British" man are Mohmed Ahmad Abdulkarim and Nouman Essghir. They don't sound very British to me. (The first is a generic Muslim name of Arabic origin, and the second is more specifically North African Arabic.)

Who wants to own stock in a company that has $80.7 billion of losses on only $16.3 billion of revenue? And that's just the last 6 months. I think Anthropic is worth zero and not trillions of dollars. Will this S-1 cause the AI bubble to burst? sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/…

And on top of that, they say in the S-1 that their product poses "catastrophic or existential risks to humanity." What's the potentional liability for that? Infinite?

But to be fair to $ANT, $72.4 billion of losses is on account of "Change in fair value of convertible notes, derivative liabilities, and SAFEs" and $8.7 billion of loses are mysteriously attibuted to "other income (expense) net."

Deuteronomy 15:18 says that God will bless you "in all that you do," which traditional commentators interpret as requiring you to actually do something first for the blessing to rest upon. The Haredi in Israel don't get this. They think that all they have to do is pray and God will take care of them. No, that's not how the world works, the Muslims will genocide them and all the rest of Israel unless Jewish Israelis work together to build a strong military, and also build a strong economy which is needed to fund a strong military. By shirking their responsibility to do anything useful in either the military or economic spheres, the Haredi are paving the way for the next genocide of the Jews. That's why I can't support Benjamin Netanyahu, because he placates the Haredi moochers who are only able to live safely in the Holy Land because of the real work being done by the non-Haredi.
