Watched: GOAT 🍿 SONY #Animation nailed it with the visuals and the game sequences are easy to follow and very dynamic. Where the film falls flat is in story structure. The gags aren’t funny, either, but fortunately there are few. Just a basic sports plot, and that’s about it. #movies #reviews

Los Angeles
Trove of sensitive LAPD records leaked in suspected hack:
I cannot tell you how ridiculous the police and #LA city attorney’s office have gotten in the past few years. More like Keystone Kops. This is just shameful and irresponsible. WTF are these people doing?! #opsec #leaks #securitybreach

Watched: The Dreadful 🍿 Beautifully shot. Ultimately disappointing. Plays like a slow burn, but lacks a solid payoff, gives away the twist way too early, and doesn’t really earn its creepy aesthetic. Very lovely to look at, though. #movies #review

Watched: Return to Silent Hill 🍿Um… not great, all around. It could be because I haven’t played the games, but I’ve watched the earlier films and they were, at the very least, better from a film standpoint. I’d say don’t bother. #movies #silenthill #videogames

Testing suggests Google’s AI Overviews tells millions of lies per hour:
Automated systems that tell lies, based on a core lie that #TechBros have told themselves and are forcing on humanity; that their wealth and power means they can do no wrong. We will all suffer for it. #ai #tech #crapitalism

I think the thing I hate most about #CNN of late is #ScottJennings, but even more so the stupid jokes the anchors engage in with a person who is getting paid to actively feed propaganda to the people of #America. #MSM #journalism #fascism #gaslighting #TFG #uspol

Elon Musk insists banks working on SpaceX IPO must buy Grok subscriptions:

California considering a first of its kind idea to boost factory-built housing:

Live #music comes in many forms, and one I love a great deal is in the studio with a live audience. Check out The #Heavytones at #LittleBigBeat Studios for some super funky #ProgressiveJazz for a couple hours of jams. #LiveMusic #jazz youtu.be/-fiqUHnrw…

“All of Humanity’s Problems Stem From Marc Andreessen’s Inability to Sit Quietly in a Room Alone”:
This is #Objectivism at work. Ayn Rand would be proud… if she weren’t long dead. I’m guessing Andreessen’s never played Bioshock… or paid any attention to reality. #crapitalism #finance

New #VideoGame trailer for Artificial Detective. Just the visuals alone really pump me up. No release date yet, but it’s coming out for #PS5 (nobody cares), Xbox X/S (even less than nobody cares), and #Steam! Hell yeah! Wishlisting it :) youtu.be/Rzq05eE10…

In with a bang, out in silence – the end of the Mac Pro:
This is hardly surprising, considering that there’s very little in the way of compatible cards and the damned thing is eye-wateringly expensive. Still, kind of sad to see it go. #apple #macpro #technology

If you are a fan of #anime, then you’re likely familiar with #CowboyBebop and, by extension, one of the single most iconic themes in history, #TANK by The Seatbelts. Well, this is my new favorite version of all time and they are touring the US starting in #NYC in April. #jazz youtu.be/d75ov4HvR…

Gross. #Trump is a criminal. Just because he’s the “president” doesn’t mean he’s suddenly grown a pair of ethics. Dear Leader’s obsequious, apologist lapdogs hide everything behind a thin veil of stolen legitimacy as they siphon assets from the biggest mark in history; the US. #uspol #insidertrading www.axios.com/newslette…

Well, this is distressing. No, it’s not law yet, but with the corruption running rampant in #USPol and #SCOTUS’s willingness to bend legal definitions beyond the breaking point, I don’t doubt this is on it’s way.

For twice the price of an #Apple #MacBookNeo, you can get a very average laptop from an untested maker that comes with Windows 11 Sloppy Edition and 32GBs of RAM, which you’ll need to run Windows. #tech #geekom
