The Sports Highlight Of The Day Is This ICE Goon Eating Shit

The Sports Highlight Of The Day Is This ICE Goon Eating Shit

Federal agents continued their operations in Minneapolis over the weekend, where they were met with resistance from local residents who do not want to see their communities invaded by masked shitheads who are there to kidnap and kill their neighbors. Groups of people have come together to protest, to chase ICE agents out of their neighborhoods, and to make sure Gregory Bovino can't piss in peace,

In some instances, ICE officers have been defeated by the elements themselves. Nobody got it worse than this fucking guy:

I’m glad this blog post from Norbert Heger is getting so much attention. I thought I was losing my mind trying to resize macOS Tahoe windows. Even keeping the rounded window corners, Apple should be able to fix this now that it’s so perfectly illustrated.

You can subscribe to get an email each Monday of all my blog posts from the previous week. Even if no one subscribed, I’d keep this enabled because it’s nice to skim through and reflect on the last week. What was I focused on? What’s next? I’m usually surprised how many posts or photos there were.

There were two noteworthy injuries in the NBA over the last week, each of which elicited diametrically opposite reactions—one to a multimillionaire player, one to a referee. Guess which injury drew which response if you like, but you're going to be wrong. The injured player...

Jaguars Junction: Wild Card Round

Jaguars Junction: Wild Card Round
Hey, I got a new idea for the next baseball game: Instead of hitting the ball, with a bat, I will just have a bunch of guys on my team pick me up and carry me to first base. Knock over the first baseman if necessary. And, oh, here's an idea for the next basketball game: I ca...

Ben Thompson with a critique of the first live NBA game on Vision Pro:

Here’s the thing that you don’t seem to get, Apple: the entire reason why the Vision Pro is compelling is because it is not a 2D screen in my living room; it’s an immersive experience I wear on my head. That means that all of the lessons of TV sports production are immaterial.

Apple is overthinking it. People just want more content. One camera at every game instead of multiple cameras at only a handful of games. Worse is better.

On October 15, 2024, the Texas Senate State Affairs Committee held a wide-ranging special hearing in the Capitol’s underground extension.

A moment with tea

Learning to appreciate different flavors is something that comes very hard for me. And yet, for some reason, tea is one of those things that no matter how hard it is for my tastebuds, I’ll constantly come back to.
