Uecker saving his chits for the Brewers. That's fine. You can't get me to give a damn about the Rays. They're always in it, sure, and that's remarkable. But a half-empty stadium full of people with Phillies and Yankees caps in the car doesn't inspire devotion, does it?

In honour of Mario Lemieux’s birthday, I’m happy to post the single greatest hockey move I’ve ever seen. And that motherfucker didn’t even touch the puck to do it. Just some Doctor Strange, calculating a million different outcomes in a single moment type shit.

macOS Golden Gate and iOS 27 ... real step back in stability and quality. I switched most of my daily surfing on Mac to Chrome because Safari shits the bed a lot; CarPlay with this new Siri AI is unusable enough that I'm going to turn all the AI off the phone until, like, the third point release.
