Hollywood studios target AI image generator in copyright lawsuit buff.ly/JQ8p1kh -> Not so sure I see this in the same vein as the studios. What's the difference between what MidJourney creates digitally versus an artist who recreates these characters physically?

Tim Cook explains why Apple TV+ exists buff.ly/Tu0C4rR -> AppleTV+ is probably my favorite streaming platform and with very good reason: Silo, Severance, The Studio, Shrinking...the list goes on...

TV Academy Announces Its 2025 Hall Of Fame Inductees - Conan O'Brien, Viola Davis & More buff.ly/owdiTaf -> All of them are deserving. Congrats to all!

Hegseth says troops will stay in Los Angeles for months: "We're not going anywhere" (video) buff.ly/6SUxyeM -> This seems like a responsible use of tax payer money. Although, those marines get to go to LA and not subject themselves to the monstrosity that is Trump's bday parade.

FCC threat to revoke EchoStar spectrum licenses draws widespread backlash buff.ly/HS075r6 -> What an unnecessary mess. People's livlihoods hang in the balance all because of an agreement in the last administration. Not only that, but the favoritism reeks of corruption.

Threads is getting native DMs as Meta reverses course buff.ly/PRIwZn5 -> This ia na absolute no-brainer. It shouldve been implemented at the start.

Pentagon to deploy 700 Marines to Los Angeles, official says buff.ly/HhXTjQJ -> Just know America, the man you voted for doesn't give a shit about your freedoms. Exhibit 1: California. In less than six months in office.

YouTube will “protect free expression” by pulling back on content moderation buff.ly/E6PmrYX -> Personally, I think this is bullshit and extremely lazy. With all the AI that's being developed, including Google's own Gemini, you can't train it to do content moderation? This is appeasement.

Michigan man calls in bomb threat to delay his flight to LA (the plan backfires) buff.ly/fKGjnKP -> Not only is it a federal crime. But it's an act of terrorism, selfish or not. Critical thinking was not part of the plan here...

Ted Cruz bill: States that regulate AI will be cut out of $42B broadband fund buff.ly/BInY6Uk -> The republican mantra of keeping us uncompetitive, ignorant and in the past connotes. As long as Cruz exists as a politician his hatred of Americans will be center stage.

CarPlay in iOS 26: Three new features are coming to your car - 9to5Mac buff.ly/x8Nmiuo -> These are a great start, however, I don't think this is it.

Airlines banned these 4 passengers for life — here's how to avoid their fate - The Points Guy buff.ly/3xCmKvz -> I hope each one of these individuals learns a valuable lesson. What may have seemed like just like a simple mistake to you, may have led to a lifetime of trauma for others.

Discord CTO says he’s “constantly bringing up enshittification” during meetings bit.ly/4mQ1hIq -> It's a slippery slope, but Discord has a reputation of killing things that don't wrk much to their credit. If I were them, from now until an official IPO, I would constantly poll users and listen.

Apple’s AI struggles won’t actually matter for years, says analyst - 9to5Mac buff.ly/nJUOV7p -> This analyst is spot on. I have numerous apple devices in my home, office and on my person and am more impressed with the seamless workflow than AI.

Listen to spectacular new Cree version of Led Zeppelin's classic "Immigrant Song" by Cree Métis band Bebe Buckskin buff.ly/kY1xEt4 -> This is outstanding.

Penzeys puts Chicken T.A.C.O. Seasoning on sale, for "no reason" buff.ly/iMDK4vu -> Nope. Nothing to see here. Just some wonderful TACOs.....

‘King of the Hill’ voice actor Jonathan Joss fatally shot outside his Texas home buff.ly/31QrGjY -> This is awful and evil. I hope the killer gets what he deserves. All because someone was just living his life. Thank you for everything, Mr. Joss.

Analysis: Trump’s “Gold Standard Science” is already wearing thin buff.ly/r0KXKPX -> Not so sure that Trump and Science can be in the same sentence without one negating the meaning of the other.

Apple in the running to land streaming rights for MLB Sunday Night Baseball - 9to5Mac buff.ly/zkIghpL -> Cool. Maybe now I can watch two Tigers games in a year....

Scripts and casting ift.tt/poNWrxD -> I didn't always have a solid strategy. I just knew what I wanted to do and what I didn't and that worked for awhile. When I started hiring people, that's when I knew that not having a cohesive strategy was a race to the bottom.

"Not A Word Was Changed": Frank Grillo Praises Rick Flag Sr.'s DCU Story & Compares James Gunn's Process To The MCU buff.ly/1c3NT5Y -> I've never been drawn to most DC stuff. With that being said, I've watched every single one of James Gunn's DC projects and loved each one so far.

11,000 public domain photographs of America's forgotten roadside attractions buff.ly/PRXeciv -> If you are into random Americana, these beautiful photos are for you.

Living Color: Strange Square Snapshots - Flashbak buff.ly/EGhxqho -> This is something to behold.

The Wes Anderson Archive: Ten Films, Twenty-Five Years buff.ly/4qFmZUO -> This is cool, but not $400 cool...

It’s too expensive to fight every AI copyright battle, Getty CEO says buff.ly/owCIxOw -> This where true lobbyinst situations are needed. AI needs to be regulated, but our country also needs to be educated. It is too expensive without backup.

If You're Missing Westworld After HBO Canceled It, Watch Apple TV+'s New 97% RT Sci-Fi Robot Show buff.ly/iHEIFFj -> After reading several of the novels, I was worried that they wouldn't quite grasp the nuance. I was dead wrong on that assessment and entirley pleased with this show.

Getting a Cease and Desist from Waffle House | Jack's Blog buff.ly/hQgzLGL -> Great story.

Wall Street Investors Mock Trump With A Brutal 4-Letter Code Word buff.ly/H4Bq08k -> Can't lie, this made me smile. Especially since I like tacos...

Meta plans to open its own physical stores like the Apple Store buff.ly/6JW7C8T -> I'm really beginning to think that Zuck doesn't understand his target market.

Just the right length ift.tt/H5SVy8P -> I've said for years that it isn't our attention that shifts, but the platform that shifts it. The internet has really skewed our sense of time. So when I'm asked how long should a video be, my question to them is where is this going to be shown?

Cary Grant May Be Known For His Comedy, But His Best Movies Are These 2 Alfred Hitchcock Films buff.ly/XmVumRy -> I persohally like To Catch a Thief more than Notorious, but that's just me.

Late cruise ship passenger wins Darwin Award nomination buff.ly/jLOgll0 -> #whitepeopleshit

NPR sues Trump over blocked funding, says it may have to shutter newsrooms buff.ly/754SqUd -> Utterly vindictive, unreasonable and nonsensical. This "President" is an absolutely clueless wannabe dictator. Cannot wait for the day he is no longer here, but I'm afraid the repercussions are set.

T-Life app has screen recording on by default, T-Mobile says not a privacy risk buff.ly/xS9rLun -> It is a god damn coupon app. Why would there ever be a need to record the screen? This explanation is dubious at best, heinous at worst. Do better T-Mobile.

Paddling upstream ift.tt/1nPYstj -> It does feel that being a a business owner you constantly are swimming against the current. But that's how you focus. It's not about constantly using adrenaline, but your inner strength to see things through.

After The Last Of Us Season 2 Finale, I Can't Wait For Season 3's Joel & Ellie Replacement buff.ly/13ZJphj -> I've been pleased with how The Last of Us has played out so far. I'm looking forward to the narrative POV shift to Abby as I'm a big fan of Dever's work.

Join Whitney Plantation's virtual book club to read and discuss, "I Am Nobody’s Slave: How Uncovering My Family’s History Set Me Free" buff.ly/5NFkoyG -> This is exactly how any of the former plantation houses should be used for. They should represent the scar that the legacy of slavery has left.

"I Knew What I Was Making": Ari Aster Responds To His New A24 Movie’s Mixed Reviews After Cannes Premiere Sparked Fierce Debates buff.ly/k5W8Xh3 -> I will admit that I'm not the biggest fan of Aster's work but this conversation has me intrigued.

“C” is for Censorship: PBS Cuts ‘Art Spiegelman’ Doc and Other Dubious Acts at Embattled Broadcaster buff.ly/fwDibK2 -> This is awful and am extremely disappointed by PBS in this decision. This is cutting a work of art and is unconstitutional . If this is the approach, Trump won and dismantled PBS.

'Lol': Marjorie Taylor Greene mocked on X after being 'roasted' by Musk's AI bot buff.ly/icUto8k -> The healine says it all. No notes.

CDC can no longer help prevent lead poisoning in children, state officials say buff.ly/NUOpA0u -> I'm sure RFK has a "plan." However , we didn't really hear of a plan when he let all the key people go that could actually help.

Trump demands Apple make iPhones in the United States, threatens new 25% tariff if they don't buff.ly/vhHVaC6 -> Once again, he expects Apple to push a button and overnight have a factory built and staff it with the skilled workers. This president is an absolute joke that does not live in reality.

Opinion | The Alienated ‘Knowledge Class’ Could Turn Violent buff.ly/2WjjscU -> Interesting take.
