Deadcells is one I enjoyed and my brother enjoyed. Lots of content and very fun.

For years Microsoft and Google were happy to acquiesce to copyright claims from the music and movie industry. Now all of a sudden when it benefits them to break those same laws, they immediately did. And now those industries who served small creators copyright claims are up against someone with a bigger legal budget.

It's more evident then ever how broken our copyright system is. I'm hoping this blows up in both parties faces and we finally get some reform but I'm not holding my breath.

This is an assumption but I bet all the data feed into Content ID on YouTube was used to train Bard/Gemini....

Probably because the US didn't do them at a stadium...

When I went to Troy I saw a placard saying they were making a big effort to acomadate the local wild life. Seemed like it!

When I found out my cousin in Turkey who worked at a major car manufacturer as an engineer made less with a PHD then I did waiting tables in the US is when I realized how messed up it was for young people in Turkey.

He has since moved to Belgium and gets paid quite well.

Almost all freight from Mexico to the US and vice versa gets offloaded at a warehouse on the border and then switched to a different driver/mode of transportation as having a driver eligible to do the whole trip is hard to come by and expensive.

That being said, the rail ramp in Laredo, TX (the crossing point of Nuevo Leon, MX and the US) is active and widely used. Issue is that rail is slow so if your shipment has any urgency, you just use a truck. I use both and while US rail companies suck to work with, they can be very effective cost wise and help keep our total carbon emissions down. But nothing beats a truck in terms of speed and availability in the US...

I imagine it was freezing. Makes sense since the Turkish sailor you can hear yelling is basically saying "Bring me a blanket for him"

You don't need to be able to know the words to understand the emotions. It's asking why watch any movies in the original language.

When I went to go see Star Wars Episode 3 when I was overseas, the English version with subtitles was packed while the local language dubbed version had a moderate crowd. People want to see the original because the delivery is usually just better, even if they can't understand the words.
