Absolutely incredible.
NASA Astronaut Reid Wiseman, who commanded Artemis II, took this footage from the far side of the Moon with his iPhone.
Watch with sound on.

Where we're headed:
What a great view of technology adoption pace
We could all use a good laugh, courtesy of the little ones
If Man City does an as bad job at defending set pieces as STL vs Sounders, I think I'll be having a good Sunday morning
Wow, cool story
The very best way to start a weekend: listen to Tom Hiddleston talk about Arsenal www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-N0...
“It’s a couple of things that work beautifully in concert. First: no music. Audiences are so sophisticated, but what they’re not accustomed to is not being told how to feel,” Wyle says. “You take all that out and it forces a level of engagement where you’re now looking for clues within the frame of the screen, which forces you to look up from your phone. And I think that is extremely engaging, especially to young viewers who aren’t accustomed to being asked to participate in a nonpassive way in the viewing experience.
“Second point, shooting it with almost exclusively 50-millimeter or 65-millimeter lenses, which is the most comparable to the human eye—and only shooting from the point of view of a human being that’s present in this space. There are no cameras on gurney wheels going in the hallway. There’s no cameras on the ceiling looking down from a God point of view. You are limited to the perspective of a participant. You can look away, but you can’t leave, and it becomes an endurance test for you to stay on your feet as long as we’re on our feet. Which [brings me to my] third point: real time. Real time has an aggregate sense of tension that you don’t get in any other form of storytelling. What happened before is happening now, and these two things are going to add up to the next thing. And if we throw more ingredients into this cooker and keep ratcheting it up, it’s going to pop.”
Wyle makes eye contact for his next point, delivering it with a Robby-esque matter-of-factness. “Fourth point: The election went the other way,” he says with a shrug. “We could have been a really good show with a lot of nice things to say in a perfectly normal Kamala Harris universe. And instead we became almost a beacon of hope and humanity in an alternative universe. But in the midst of that, fifth point—this is essentially competence porn. You’re watching really smart, dedicated people do what only they know how to do at a level that you don’t know how to do it, and you’re so fucking glad that they’re there doing it, and compartmentalizing their own stuff to put your broken pieces back together. You’re so reassured by knowing that there are people out there that laugh and joke and have the ability to lock in like that.”
this is fucking unreal stuff from Noah Wyle on the magic of The Pitt. www.gq.com/story/noah-w...
He carries this show on his back and radiates magic actor energy to everyone. My daughter wants to be an actress and I hope to introduce her to this show when she's ready
Congrats Kent!
I really dislike being the "producer of my family life" but between PT and dr appointments, after-school activities and those things running into my many work meetings (or soccer), I've had no choice but to more heavily use Google Calendar
At least I don't use jira :D
You forgot The Secret Life of Godzilla
A TRUE LEGEND and Royalty of @guildwars2.com has passed @screenager.bsky.social
I met them through the game, and hung out at whatever events came about.
Ed was part of a team that created an EU event, Foostival. A huge success, where folx met, and bonded over their joy of #GW2
Rest well Ed <3
Absolutely gutted, he was a gentleman and a valued community member
Ugh, that hurts. I remember meeting him many years at gamescom and in the UK
Great write up that captured my thoughts!
"As we all know, the natural habitat for GOP/MAGA politicians is actually unbridled and ignorant stupidity.

Headline on Hollywood Reporter that reads ”Paddington 4, Escape From New York' Reboot in the Works”
I misread the headline as one movie and got very excited for a moment…

a chart showing various oil scenarios and actual oil demand aligning to the higher oil consumption ones
If the world had followed ambitious climate scenarios, global oil demand would be at least 20% lower than it is today - about the same volume of oil that flows through the Strait of Hormuz.
“It’s toddler AI misinformation at an industrial scale. It’s very risky for the developing brain.”
AI slop is all over the internet—and preying on your kids.
The USA should have been industry leader in the next generation of tech that matters: EVs, sustainable energy sources and grid.
We need to vote out the Fossil Fuel lobby-driven old politicians clinging to the old world.
EVs are winning. They're obviously going to win. The US is punching itself in the dick by clinging to ICE vehicles.
Celebrating a Man City fan pretending to drink Arsenal fan tears? I guess we'll always be the villains, that's the narrative
Not a good weekend if you're an Arsenal fan. Congrats Bournemouth and Man City fans
