  1. Lmfao just run the exact same play again for a TD. Word.
  2. There's Arky being Arky. C'mon boys you gotta play like it matters
  3. Got froze while Mike was walking out
  4. This is ass. Gonna be an early morning in a blind lol
  5. Fun web engineering fact - web clients (web browser) often have a different set of servers from app and mobile clients (mobile or TV app)
  6. Different set of edge servers I guess. But woof, Netflix is gonna be hurting from this bad press
  7. At this scale, it's really a wild challenge. Funnily enough - out in fuckin Port O'Connor Texas it's working pretty smoothly for us streaming on the Netflix app on our TV. Had a couple hiccups, but backing out to the main menu and reclicking the event fixed things. Definitely pretty chunky quality for the first 10-20 seconds joining the stream though. I do not envy Netflix's various ops teams tonight.
  8. Probably like 9 or 930? They have 2 more undercard fights
  9. It reads to me more as sour grapes because Jones and his camp were expecting to be able to rebuy the asset at auction. "Just redoing" an auction is a big fuckin deal, and would significantly change the bidding once everyone knows what the winning bid was - especially since it was a sealed bidding process
  10. literally just the attack ads played ad nauseum were believed, simply because they were repeated enough. Trump using the Goebbels playbook to great effect
  11. So literally just Infowars complaining to the judge about the rules the judge set and they agreed to, and the judge is siding with the complaintant? What the fuck? I need a surlylawyer to come in here and tell my why I'm a fascist for thinking anything could possibly happen to this scumbag
  12. What, you don't think putting a person that had literal brain worms in charge of the FDA isn't gonna make things run smoother?
  13. Lmfao even his artificial creations don't like him Fortune: Elon Musk’s AI turns on him, labels him ‘one of the most significant spreaders of misinformation on X’
  14. They're just applying MBA business tactics to the US federal government. Slash workforce to reduce costs, and then they can get on with the share buybacks, or something.
  15. Sure, but the board validated the claim and banned the performance literally because a male actor was playing, among other roles in the production, a ladybug.
  16. I imagine they're going to be following whatever Miles' lead is, our school board is pretty kookie - they banned a performance of James and the Giant Peach because a MAN was playing a LADYbug (and other characters)
  17. Probably a better thread, but this has been where Centerpoint has been discussed most: https://www.click2houston.com/consumer/2024/11/14/audit-for-major-us-energy-company-centerpoint-after-accusations-its-overcharging-customers-100m-a-year HOUSTON – Major U.S. energy provider CenterPoint Energy is under scrutiny following allegations of overcharging customers by $100 million annually. The Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUC) has approved an audit to examine the company’s spending of taxpayer dollars. The PUC voted Thursday to find a third party to audit CenterPoint. Not only has the energy company been accused of overcharging, they’ve been criticized by customers and the state’s Lt. Governor Dan Patrick for spending $800M to lease 20 massive mobile generators. Fifteen of them have never been used because they’re not all that mobile -- they take days to move. PUC Chairman Thomas Gleeson emphasized the audit will assess CenterPoint’s emergency operations and generator allocation. The audit report is expected by April.
  18. A billionaire using disinformation to steer nations was literally a bond villain plot
