Is this mostly a video? I rejected cookies and it filled the screen with a box at the top complaining that it couldn’t show me a YouTube video now and a box at the bottom complaining about all the things they couldn’t show me because of my choice. On the article if I clicked “Read More” it was just the same text on this post, nothing more.

Didn’t he end up forced into an early retirement because he was such a hard runner his joints got damaged? Like, such an incredible athlete his bones couldn’t keep up?

I don’t understand what I’m seeing here

She’s Byron’s daughter?! TIL

Well-known crypto security researcher ZachXBT posted about Revolut’s email to its affected customers late on Friday. The researcher said the incident appeared to have been targeted at high net worth users.

Well, at least I’m safe from this one

Knowing humans someone probably thought pretty quickly that it would be a funny prank to point it at his friend

I’m sorry about your house and the insurance company sucking. Is there any way to appeal?

The use of generative AI in NHL 27 was first reported by ESPN sportscaster John Buccigross, who also serves as the play-by-play man for EA’s NHL series. “They’re using some AI stuff now,” he said on the Chirping Zebras Podcast last week (via IGN). “They played me some stuff back in my voice. It’s like, wow, that’s pretty good. If it means less work and the same check, I’ll take it.”

something else Buccigross related about the process: The AI is sometimes off.

“They were playing me back some of my AI voice, and they’re playing it like, ‘Score! And the crowd gets out of their chairs!’” he said. “I was like, no, they’re not chairs. I know, AI, they look like a chair, but we call them seats. Little things like that, you gotta go back and listen because those words matter in sports.”

So they’re not just having the AI mimic his voice, but even create the dialog? That sounds really lazy

That is unnerving

Never thought of that before, but I can kinda see it

I “love” that the related articles at the bottom are all ads for promotions Surfshark was running at some point

Just the babies? No parents?

In this picture he looks like even he’s not sure how this happened

He does music too? I thought he was a comedian

That’s a problem I very rarely had with car CD players

I’ve had those mutual jump scares with deer a few times in my life

It took somebody showing me to finally understand what was going on when I first used one back in college

He did a show or is scheduled to do a show near me and I thought about going, but the ticket prices were out of my price range. Good for him if he’s able to get that kind of money in his 70s!

I believe they’re referring to buying up all of the copies of the hot new game or console, then reselling them above MSRP to make a profit in a time of scarcity.

I don’t remember scarcity being as much of a problem back then, nor was demand high enough for scalping to be common. It might have been less legal, too. As far as tickets to sporting events and concerts, back then it was illegal to resell them for more than face value in my state. That changed 10-15 years ago thanks to lobbying from Ticketmaster and affiliates.

This feels even more baffling than David Spade
