No interest in the Ballon D'or (cult of the individual 🤮) More interested in the Bell-End D'or. Who was football's biggest Bell-End in 2026? -Khaldoon Al Mubarak -Cristiano Ronaldo -Gianni Infantino -Whoever's to blame for Afcon debacle Who's your choice and who have we missed?

I would be less antagonistic if the end goal of the Ai companies weren’t to enclose the intellectual commons just so they can sell it back to us. Some people think that sounds fine because they get some application from it and others also see it as the wholesale theft of their intellectual efforts.

being anti AI is a luxury belief only available to first world people, especially Americans imagine how important machine translation is for people whose first languages aren't that common

The Ballon d'Or is on Monday night at the London Palladium, and Rice, Gabriel, Raya and Saliba are all expected there. So expect a very different Arsenal team at Fleetwood on Tuesday. Kepa has started every League Cup game under Arteta since last season, Ipswich included.

Jan Voerman Jr. (1890–1976) was a Dutch painter and illustrator, best known for his highly detailed and refined depictions of nature. He had a strong preference for still lifes featuring fruit (such as the apples in this painting), flowers, plants, and meticulously executed animal studies.

NEW: Anthropic’s filing appears to partly walk back the co-founders’ pledge to commit 80% of their personal equity holdings in the AI startup to philanthropic causes. Those acts, the filing suggests, are “voluntary, revocable expressions” that “do not constitute binding obligations.”

The Ballon d'Or website has accidently published three pre-prepared articles for when the winner is announced. 😬 This puts to bed the widely held belief that Harry Kane has already been chosen. Or, was it a deliberate 'mistake' to disguise that fact? Or, none of the above? Um... 🤪 🤷 ballondor.com

So many people will simultaneously insist that Arteta actually isn't that good and should play better football and say that, actually, he basically only has a handful of players who could get into any other top team on the planet.

Everton on Saturday, 2-0. Konsa scored his first Arsenal goal from a corner after seven minutes, our first set-piece goal of the season. Gabriel headed the second on his 200th Premier League appearance.

Balondor is just crap award similar to Fifa peace prize This needs to be scrapped. There are no deserved winner. PSG players play 15 games all season to win UCL World cup is like 8 games. How can you give to a world cup winner too? Scrap it and move on.

I wrote this in March 2016, after a period of nasty weather here in the UK. It features elements of #ambient, some dubstep percussion, and more than a little glitch. This is not the released album version. "An Ill Wind" soundcloud.com/whatsisname/...

soundcloud.comAn Ill WindA predominantly dark piece with a couple of lighter, melodic moments. This is mainly rooted in the '70s Prog Rock era, but the percussion gives a casual nod to modern dubstep

Les génies qui gèrent le Ballon d'Or viennent de supprimer les trois articles annonçant le sacre de Kane, Mbappé et Yamal Ils ont donc aussi donné le top 3 qu'il fallait "protéger à tout prix" Grande organisation !

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

Le site officiel du Ballon d'Or a aussi publié un article annonçant le sacre de Kylian Mbappé Rarement vu quelque chose d'aussi peu professionnel puisque les articles sont mis en LIGNE (ils ont dû faire pareil avec Yamal j'imagine) Quelle honte ballondor.com/news/posts/k...
