More easter eggs than a Cadbury display. Brilliant. Someone has finally matched the Chargers' energy.

They did it again (envious, hateful coded) youtu.be/R6qi8BELUA0?...

I’m not sure I’ll go along with the “death of globalization” kicker, but Nissan does appear to be a canary in the coal mine for the wave of destruction we’re likely to see against legacy OEMs and suppliers that can’t keep up with China’s global EV onslaught. 🔌💡🔌🚗 www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

not sure how i can be expected to focus on anything else today now that i've seen the promo photo from the Madden movie with Christian Bale as Al Davis and Nicolas Cage as John Madden

"We’re not just a vacation app — we’re going to be a platform," Airbnb chief Brian Chesky told @stevenlevy.bsky.social. Good long read on the company's transformation. IDK, I still have little interest in using Airbnb for anything other than holiday rentals.

Good morning…

(Reuters) - Alphabet's Waymo is recalling more than 1,200 self-driving vehicles to update software and address risks of collisions with chains, gates and other roadway barriers after U.S. auto safety investigators opened a probe last year. $GOOGL $UBER

Good morning! 58% of electricity in the middle of country is coming from wind power, right now.

…yes? Yes??? YESSSSSSS!!!!

Maybe we'll solve the phone addiction problem by phone quality deteriorating. Just got an iPhone 16 Pro and it is much worse than my old 12. Siri is useless and they seem to have ruined dictation, which I really rely on.

Happy b’day Darius Rucker, who in 1994 had been with Hootie for 8 yrs — when Letterman heard their new song & booked them. “It was the moment our career changed .. On Thurs, we were just another band trying to make it. Saturday morning, everybody was trying to find a Hootie & the Blowfish record.”

Bert is one of those coaches that you hate if your team is on the wrong end of his antics but he's entertaining as hell when they're not. And he's a really good coach

News: Illinois head football coach Bret Bielema has agreed to a new six-year contract that runs through the 2030 season, with an annual salary of $7.7 million + retention and other bonuses possible.

Favorite banter: Matt the GenXer: “Versant, is that going to lower my A1C? Like, what is that?” Lucas the Millennial: “Am I supposed to know what an A1C is?” (Me: do Millennials not notice Jardiance ads?)

Sitting next to a guy on this flight who runs three factories supplying HVAC components in the UK, China, and Spartanburg SC. Obviously very focused on tariffs but his biggest challenge? Keeping workers around at the factory in Spartanburg. “30% turnover and if anyone dangles $.50/hr at them, gone”

Somewhere in the industrial policy/reshoring discourse should account for the factor that leisure/hospitality workers in the US now make $20/hr, up 75% from 2010. Any new industry in the US has to pay people a lot:

who did it better dansby or dansby? Question of the Day is presented by @StateFarm.

May 13, 1994: The Knicks and Bulls brawl in Chicago during Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semis. New York's Derek Harper was suspended for 2 games & fined $15,000. Chicago's Jo Jo English was suspended for 1 game & fined $10,000. Fifteen other players were fined $2,500 each for leaving the bench.

Toys & experiences that weren’t tied to modern IP/characters.

You know it’s over for the hurt guy when fans of the other team are doing the “Really hope XYZ is at full strength, such a warrior 🙏” posts.

Joke of a company. Joke of a city. What are we even doing here. www.ajc.com/news/atlanta...

Whenever a player goes down with a non contact injury like he’s been shot: Achilles.

this is my thinking, he's going to be like "I like the cut of [some guy]'s jib better"

With the NBA now in the fold, Amazon is doubling down on basing Black Friday around live sports. frontofficesports.com/amazon-bets-...

A vision U.S. state boundaries that follow watersheds. It's not *too* far off of some of the major cultural flows, because settlers and commerce and then the railroads followed the rivers. www.reddit.com/r/maryland/c...

Mumbai line 3 (Aqua line) now operational from Aarey to BKC. Cost of 535 million (2023 USD)/km which is high, but it's one of the more challenging underground subway lines to construct in the world, with all sorts of NIMBY challenges along the way. Should hopefully be very valuable though.

WE ARE SO BACK

Huge news at NBCUniversal’s upfront - Michael Jordan will be a special contributor for the network’s returning NBA coverage.

I kind of just assumed all the XUVs had fallen apart and been junked by now

Apparently before the St. Lawrence Seaway opened when they wanted to get large ships into the Great Lakes they just brought them up the Mississippi and shoved them through the Chicago River

remember when the Twins and Braves were the two worst teams in baseball early on? now the Twins are 20-20 (with a plus-18 run differential!) and the Braves are 19-20. nice reminder that it is a looooong season

Spike is going through it
