    FC/OT: Commencement speaker booed after praising AI as the next Industrial Revolution…

    They may not see money directly but any time the tax burden is shifted from residential to commercial, there are theoretical benefits to the taxpayers. Avoidance on residential tax increases. New town resources like fire trucks and playgrounds etc not paid for from the traditional tax levy, etc...

    OT: Best Hawaii 5-0's.

    I have a high school classmate who lives in Hawaii. He had a bit part as a bad guy in the redux of 5-0 that ran a little while back. His acting career ended with a scene of him as a corpse in the Honolulu morgue. I'll see if I can find the pic.

    This ^^^. 💯 A hundred years ago there was talk about shutting down the patent office because almost everything had been invented.

    Municipalities can use data centers to print $. You can build a data center on as few as 40 acres. What other industry invests $1B+ in a 40 acre parcel?

    OT: Stupid Commercials.

    They just put out a new version, equally cringy. I imagine the kids from the first commercial are in their 20s now.

    Terry Smith on Drew Allar: “Our system wasn’t built for him.”

    For a kid with the lowest INT ratio in school history and one of the lowest in CFB history, the number of memorable picks in crucial situations is painful.

    FC/OT/Highly Flammable: Trump signs executive order to limit transfers in college football.

    BTW I agree with much of what you say re: athletes should be student-athletes not athlete-students. I'd give em 5 years though because many kids take more than 4 to graduate even without the time constraints of D1 athletics.

    FC/OT/Highly Flammable: Trump signs executive order to limit transfers in college football.

    Isn't this almost exactly the situation D1 athletes were in for 100 years, without an apocalypse happening? Could this action be a statement of "If it ain't broke..."? I think there's a way that NIL and college athletics as we knew it CAN coexist, and perhaps enforcing the notion of being a...

    OT: Favorite rock lyrical couplets, 2 lines max. What you like?

    He said, "One day, you'll leave this world behind So live a life you will remember" My father told me when I was just a child "These are the nights that never die" - Aviici. Foreshadowing his own suicide? 💔

    Stop gloating... even a blind squirrel finds an acorn occasionally. You also wondered if we'd give up 6 or 7 goals this game. How about 1 thru 55 minutes.
