We watched Minority Report last night for the first time in several years. It did the rare thing where I thought it was easily a 4.5/5 type movie going into it (probably having seen it 2-3 other times before), but after rewatching it, it wasn't nearly as good as I remembered.

Ondřej is an absolute legend. One of the realest to ever do it.

70 percent of the internet was vulnerable yesterday to very bad security flaws inside a coding language. Turns out, *one volunteer* is mostly responsible for maintaining that code & helping push updates. Yesterday Ondřej Surý saved the internet. So I called him up www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

A PSA for anyone who was curious. We'll be monitoring things over the (I'm sure) next few weeks. Let us know if you see anything weird or experience any issues.

PSA: the site was temporarily offline tonight due to some hectic updates to deal with the recent PHP security issue patches. Everything should be fine now, but we may have some intermittent outages in the early mornings over the next few days for maintenance. Just wanted to let everyone know!

I stopped watching videos where Trump talks earlier this year, so I'm a little out of the loop on how he sounds now. But newsflash to me: the dude sounds horrible. I'm actually a little surprised by the shift in his slurring, overly relaxed pronunciation.

Trump: "You know, the first question -- they have a lion, a snake, a giraffe, and a bear. And they say 'which is the snake?' ... by the time you get to number five a lot of people are left out on the road ... I get no credit for it."

This MAGA-adjacent astroturf cannot get its ass kicked badly enough for me

The rotting corpse of Canada's national magazine saw fit to print a first-person account of how a 23-year-old Alberta separatist was radicalized because a mask fogged up her glasses during COVID. Honest to Zeus, this is the dumbest fucking timeline...

The Flyers beating the Avalanche to win their second game of the season in game #11 was not on my 26-27 NHL season bingo card.

Charlie O'Connor@charlieoconn.bsky.social

Flyers spring the upset, beat the Avalanche 3-2. It's their second straight win after 9 straight losses to start the season. Can't say I saw that coming.

EvolvingWild album of the week #72 Swans - My Father Will Guide Me up a Rope to the Sky It seems the consensus on their best album(s) lies elsewhere, but their “comeback” from ‘10 is my favorite. A monolithic thing, sort of a stripped down thesis for what the band truly is. Just incredible stuff.

I really love documentaries. Here are our greatest of all time documentaries (loosely ordered): Close-Up (if it counts) The Act of Killing The Thin Blue Line Burden of Dreams The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters Dig! Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker’s Apocalypse Icarus

Ok actually hold on I already forgot a few that should be up close to the top: Hoop Dreams Grey Gardens Some more that come to mind: Jiro Dreams of Sushi Exit Through the Gift Shop Man on Wire Crumb Grizzly Man Now, I bet You Can See Everything fits in here somewhere, but it's still early.

Sorry we didn't elaborate on this more, but good god that was incredible. Now, I've seen some people calling it the greatest documentary ever made... I wouldn't say that, but it's definitely in that tier after one watch.

What the federal government is doing to Ilhan Omar right now is disgraceful and infuriating. My US house representative is being targeted by the federal government. It makes my blood boil.

I don't think it's fair that none of our social media accounts have ever been verified on any social media platform. We're a small little hockey stats website business, but I want that blue check mark god dammit!
