Saw Project Hail Mary in IMAX today and its fucking fantastic!

It does the book justice and it should be watched on the biggest screen you can get yourself in front of asap.

Amaze! Amaze! Amaze!

Flighty is more tracking for flights that you’ve been on and are going to be on.

2025 flights: 16 flights, 65707 km. Flight time 3 days and 18 hours. 11 airports and 4 airlines.

Name a better flight tracking app than #Flighty. I bet you can’t. Year-in-review of my 2025 flights.

This is so cool, how did you make it?

Trump’s obsession with me is beyond weird. He needs serious help.

Since he has no economic policies to tout, he’s resorting to regurgitating bigoted lies instead.

He continues to be a national embarrassment.

SCOOP / UPDATE — Disney saw more than 1.7 million total paid streaming cancelations during the period 9/17-9/23, a Disney source confirms to me. The total includes Disney+, Hulu and ESPN.

:D thank you so much!

Thanks! Any special places I should go to?

Any tips on what to do in Auckland between Jan/Feb?

My bad, you could read it without a paywall when I posted it. Won’t post any more substack links…

:D

Gov.uk website says that one way to save water is: “Delete old emails and pictures as data centres require vast amounts of water to cool their systems.”

The US government is becoming more and more like the @theonion.com every day and now it looks like the UK Gov wants to join.

X’s Altmetric Hegemony Ceding to Bluesky The alternative social media platform is matching engagement of Elon Musk’s X in ways that “would have seemed unthinkable until recently,” says study.

A new study says X’s dominance in research metrics may be ending as Bluesky emerges as a clear alternative matching engagement in ways once unthinkable. Politics and geography play a big role.

One of the biggest newsletter platforms now syndicates to Bluesky and Mastodon Ghost 6.0 adds social web-focused features.

Ghost 6.0 adds social web syndication and a built-in reader for platforms like Bluesky, Threads and Mastodon. New analytics too. Prices are going up but publishers have earned over $100M on the platform. #ActivityPub #Newsletters #Bluesky

Agreed 100%

Interesting move by Germ @germnetwork.com to offer secure messaging linked to Bluesky handles. Is this the future of messaging using ATProto? Should we wait for encrypted DMs or is it easier to use Signal usernames? Let’s try it out. Message me by clicking here (iOS only) #Privacy #Encryption

Charts of the S&P 500 total liabilities (above) and the US national debt (below).

Corporate America (S&P 500) carries $36.9 trillion in liabilities nearly the same as the US national debt of $37.1 trillion.

Do you think this level of debt is sustainable and which one poses a bigger risk to the economy?

Andrew Cuomo, notorious for his inability to accept the word “no,” posts a video in a clumsy attempt at appearing human.

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social responds with a link to donate to his own campaign. Once again, Cuomo gets thoroughly ratio’d by Mamdani.

I know who’s gonna win. #Mamdani

I want to go back to Twitter… It was great for so many years :/

Agree 100%. I wish there was a fourth option with more users than Bluesky.

Bluesky: Still Hopeful, But Where Did the Buzz Go? Consider this a friendly check-in from a concerned ally who’s still optimistic, but can’t ignore the elephant in the room: Why did Bluesky’s momentum stall, and what can we do about it?

Still hopeful about Bluesky but it’s time to talk about the stall.

Growth has slowed, engagement is down and Mark Cuban says it feels like an echo chamber. But I still can’t see myself using/supporting X or Threads (Meta).

Just saw F1: The Movie. Not sure if it’s gonna be the movie of the summer, very likely though.

Amazing visually, great cinematography. Incredible racing scenes with new and awesome ways of filming.

Fantastic film from Apple. #F1Movie #F1
