Acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery
Read another way - Netflix is putting up a $5.8B deposit against Comcast or Paramount acquiring WBD, which is a pretty decent deal since they've got about a coin-flip chance to actually close the thing

Everything is Shit: Tracking the Great Enshittening
There's actually a very interesting sociological angle to all of this, in that LLM's are trained primarily on contemporary language and dialogue and data. It stands to reason then, that the content being produced by LLM's would be more tuned to more contemporary tastes.

Netflix purchasing HBO
Fuck at least David Zaslav won't keep killing finished projects just to harvest tax savings. Now some new asshole can kill projects after a single successful season!

Things not going well in Venezuela
Ward Carrol with a good overview of where things stand after the congressional briefing Notably, it seems like there were more than two strikes on the boat - as many as FOUR have been reported (so far). Four guided munitions expended just to sink a burning and broken 20ft boat that people were trying to flip back over.

These businesses have been previously found guilty of price fixing and antitrust violations. You did not watch the video and are just replying with your usual "NUH UH" to anything and everything I post. Go eat some applesauce, grampaw.

honestly, he's just trolling for reactions. Boo on me for not putting his racist and fascist ass on ignore. Poor 'ol gramps so scared of his lily white ass getting replaced by people who can do more than just shitpost gifs and suck off dictators

what the fuck $7.50 for a fucking Red Baron pizza? That's criminal

Trump’s America
Modern "journalism" has this weird tick where they refuse to state and obvious finding and will instead offer every position equally, even when one side is fabricated fiction. If they speak out, they'll lose their access and the outlets that employ them are owned by cowardly MBA's that just want line to go up, not conduct actual journalism and inform the public

Bruh where do you live? Gas was below $3 for most of Biden's presidency - at least in Texas - lmfao. Good lord you're pathetic and sychophantic.

Everything is Shit: Tracking the Great Enshittening
Tech Jesus / immamac alter ego with some excellent reporting on price inflation and taxpayer fleecing due to AI data center debt spending. If you weren't aware, DDR5 system memory has more than doubled in price over the last couple months due to AI datacenter demand. Memory manufacturers have been shuttering consumer lines in favor of putting the same silicon into datacenters for a bigger margin funded by debt

Doesn't that directly conflict with previous testimony that they HAD to do a second strike because the victims were radioing for help?- Trump’s America
It bears keeping in mind that all of those things you mention have been getting help from Russian intelligence. Exporting discontent is their speciality- Things not going well in Venezuela
They struck another boat last night in the eastern Pacific. Released unclassified video of the strike and everything. Disgusting, horrific war crimes. Judge jury and executioner, all to manufacture consent for a colonial war and distract from Donald Trump MOLESTING CHILDREN- Trump’s America
This is just Steven Miller doing a sock puppet with Trump, but it's still disgusting- The GQP: Trumpist Death Cult
When finance bros run the world, CapEx good; OpEx bad.- James Comey is my Homie
Inb4 the supreme Court rules "fuggit, dawg. Let em play"- The Supremes
I won't believe it until twicehorn comes through to tell us we're all overreacting and yet it's also worse than we thought- Political Cartoons - The Politics Thread.
this is an impressive #bothsides, and from a nazi sympathizer comic artist no less. Classic, did babayaga link that one to you?- Hegseth & the Boys
It's almost like they have a habit of rolling that phrase out in the face of damning evidence, and their army of useful and uncritical idiots never think more than a couple seconds about it before giving it the 'ol okeydoke- Things not going well in Venezuela
https://www.usni.org/magazines/naval-history-magazine/1995/october/success-meant-death-interview-kaoru-hasegawa Wow what a remarkable story. That sort of honor and dignity has certainly left our armed forces at this point, given how a fish rots from the head. Hasegawa was even treated as a Callaghan survivor at a ship's reunion That really REALLY flies in the face of the murder that this administration ordered.- Trumps War on Everything

[laughs in John Roberts]- Two WV National Guard shot in DC
Ward Carroll has been a surprisingly good and deep source of information TLDR - no evidence of this being "radicalized terrorism" and it looks MUCH MUCH more like PTSD and a broken man snapping after being left hung out to dry. He was vetted by the CIA, and was a "top 1% Afghan soldier" - Trumps War on Everything
