UNC is firing their basketball coach because he chokes. Joe Flacco is headed to Cincy at 41. Mo Salah is leaving Liverpool (a year later than he should have). And that’s about all I’ve got for sports.
This is all very fascinating, but I don’t see how the decision can stand. A platform is merely a place to go. I don’t see how they are any more responsible for what happens there, especially when someone violated their TOS, than a city would be if a violent felon attacked and murdered somebody in a city park. I guess it’s easier to just blame them and steal their money than it is to aggressively prosecute people who commit crimes and tell parents that it’s their responsibility to monitor and/or control who their kids are interacting with online. I also think there are some perverse incentives for juries when the state they’re in can fill their coffers from these lawsuits and shore up state budgets and the company will lose a mere fraction of their earnings should they fine them a ton of money.
Good luck with that case. Could have just gone back to your home country, I suppose. And your complaint is with El Salvador, not the US.

We will have to put our faith in Bojangles.
Your faith should have already been in Bojangles. Because it’s the best chain fried chicken in the world.
I was always partial to Popeye’s, but it’s been awhile.
Popeyes is all breading and no chicken.
I liked Bo’s till they started opening around here and they have dropped bone-in chicken on new store menus. It’s only chicken strips and sandwiches. That ain’t what I mean by fried chicken.
Church’s has the best biscuits.
Hot take:
Fried chicken is just… fine. I don’t get how people get rapturous. Same for biscuits.
(I have had high-quality versions of both, multiple times. Meh.)
Whose so-called “high-quality” versions did you have?
My MIL’s (she’s from Louisville) is widely acclaimed. Hattie’s in Saratoga Springs. A few others I’m blanking on.
I know of three people that make excellent biscuits, and exactly ONE commercial enterprise that makes good ones.
Hattie’s does make the best fried chicken sandwich anywhere. Their biscuits are only meh.
KFC has the best slaw. Which, if we are being honest, is all that really matters in fast food chicken.
Zwak is clearly just trolling.

“potential destinations including the Saudi Pro League and Major League Soccer”
I was gonna guess Arabia but MLS is another popular retirement league. A player of his stature only goes to either LA or Miami and all the superstar slots are filled there IIRC. And Arabia probably pays WAY better.
He’s Muslim so I’d expect him to go to the Saudi League and make a shitload of money for a few years. Then maybe America, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see him start a management career instead.
You know who I’d really like to see coaching him next year in the Saudi league?
Arne Slot.
Ah, what have you done for us lately, as in I’ve-totally-forgotten-about-last-season.
Almost every decision he made in the offseason WRT transfers has not worked out. And he’s stuck with Salah all year even though his production has been absolutely horrible.
Last year was last year. This team should never fall below third in the table with their resources. But they blew a boatload of money to bring in a bunch of guys from the less physical German league and expected them to do the same thing in the English league right out of the gate?
Is Slot really in charge of transfers? I read something a while back that head coaches aren’t the managers of yore, and transfers are falling outside of their control.
I see Griezeman has signed a deal with Orlando.
That will go about as well as Shaqiri did in Chicago.
I’m not sure I buy that anymore.
Really, they are publishers. But I don’t know if that makes any difference in this case which was plainly decided on “feels” more than anything. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
They should ban algorithms.
The social media platforms do so much to manage what you see that I struggle with “content-neutral platform”.

Because a jury said so?
Im not sure NTSB understands how the ASDE surface radar actually works if they truly think this. While a transponder on the vehicle would improve the display presented to ATC (such as providing a tagged target like “Fire1” or some such), it in no way impacts the safety logic of the radar processing and prediction logic of an un-tagged target encroaching on the runway.
However, NTSB is claiming that the ASDE didn’t issue an alert…
For me since this is equipment I work on (not at LGA specifically), I want to know did ATC have any inhibit area drawn, did the system not pick up the raw target and include it in its safety logic, were they in ‘limited mode’ which would, cause an issue here and sometimes after restoring the system after maintenance, will go into that mode until AT takes it out. What does the last ‘golden map’ look like? A ‘golden map’ is basically a noise floor of raw radar data when the airport is least busy to help filter out stationary targets like signs/building/etc.
In the end though, a controller lost their situational awareness with the two separate issues going on at once.
Hey OBE.
As part of my job, i have to escort contractors across a military runway. Fro mlistnening to the recordings all went per training.
Up to the point where fire truck was told to stop. I do not understand how they did not hear that on the radio.
yes controller screwed up.
But so did the fire truck. Do not understand why they were not listening.
Also did they not see the plane’s lights?
robodruid – In re the plane’s lights – in the online chatter regarding the situation, a pilot discussing the issue of lights pointed out that it was difficult to tell if it was a small plane closer to you or a big plane further away. Could be they did see the lights but thought it was a more distant bigger plane until it became “oh, crap” and too late for anyone to stop.
The full report will be a cosmic set of circumstances that all happened at once sadly — and really speaks to how safe it really is. I mean, basically in this instance it appears there were FOUR separate circumstances that led to it.
– Controller situational awareness
– Firetruck only monitoring ground (when we are on the field, we carry a handheld separately from our truck radio to monitor local for aircraft landing/departing)
– Separate emergency with the United? plane
– Firetruck seeming to also lose their situational awareness.
As for not seeing the plane’s lights — couple things. At night, can you tell me the distance of an aircraft landing not knowing what type it is? This is where the Port Authroity drivers were complacent. Once they got the clearance to cross, which by timing wasn’t even at the hold line I don’t think, and didn’t assess. Hindsight I know.
@ Ownbestenemy on March 25, 2026 at 7:55 am
No I cannot tell what is comming down the runway by lights. And where i work, its only about 4 types of planes. And I dont do this stuff at night. Its honestly the scariest part of my job. (feel free to mock)
A terrible accident.
No way I’d mock that. We don’t do it often either in my discipline so we are always hyper aware.
Better article on NTSB preliminary findings
This part is a grey area in the ASDE system and where the transponder on the firetruck would have helped
That means there were multiple radar targets and the one mover (the firetruck) was lost in the noise.
This part though, now has me leaning to multiple astronomical f-ups on both the controller and the fire truck.
If you are curious on how they work, check it out here
I was wondering about that; You can see ground vehicles at BOS but it looks like LGA doesn’t have that; ISTR you pointed me to something about that last time I asked & it’s maybe an experimental system?
Nope. Not experimental at all. Just a ADS-B out transponder usually on UAT broadcast.
Airfield Ops and Fire absolutely at minimum should have them. Us here in TechOps with the FAA is hit and miss usually due to hangups with the Union. Though we rarely cross runways if at all.
Seems crazy that it’s not universal for the bigger airports.
They are probably shutting down Sora because it lacked the proper training to prevent all the politically incorrect videos people were producing. Youtube is full of Sora produced videos which would result in life sentences in England.
Might also be that it was losing money.
I mean, I don’t think OpenAI can charge enough to cover its costs and have any customers, but the video generation takes more compute horsepower than the text.
Well, that settles it.

Regarding Nacua’s “Fuck all the Jews” I think he meant this in a sexual connotation based on his behavior. The story suggests he did an “antisemitic in nature” dance 2 weeks prior to the biting event. I’m not sure what that even means?
He did a pole dance with a Torah scroll on Simchat Torah?
“I’m not sure what that even means?”
I think it was the rubbing his hands together greedily TD dance. People said it had a happy merchant look to it.

Because we don’t believe that Rooshia is going to use their nukes unless they’re all going to die anyway. Which obviously means that people (including you!) don’t believe Israel is any different so your “ironic” antisemitism is just performative groyperism.
IMHO pushing Russia into the “axis of evil” was the stupidest foreign policy program in decades. Maybe it was inevitable but I doubt it.
IMHO pushing Russia into the “axis of evil” was the stupidest foreign policy program in decades.
It was incredibly stupid. When the Soviet Union fell, the Russians should have been welcomed as part of the Western nations and NATO should have been dissolved.
But I guess there’s not much grift in that.
Did we push Russia into the axis of evil? Or did Russia look at European globalism’s cultural suicide pact and nope the fuck out? I think the idea of Good vs Evil is kind of simplistic, not in the sense of there not being actual Good (as a theoretical pole, not actually exemplified by any nation), but in the sense of there being myriad Evils.
I would say the continued ostracism of Russia as evil along with the continued expansion of NATO to their borders at the very least went a long way toward pushing them into the adversaries category rather than the economic and cultural partners category.
Sure, that aspect was us pushing them away, but I think the decision to remain nationalist rather than join the European rush to globalize came first and the isolation strategy was mostly in response to that. I don’t want to set Russia up as the good guys, there is more than one way to be evil, but Russia choosing to avoid the globalist suicide pact and in return being cast as the boogie man says more about the evil of NATO/EU/ US Democrats than Russia. I’m not really disagreeing with you, just saying it wasn’t so much stupid foreign policy as it was evil foreign policy.
Yeah, the US absolutely does not smell so sweet in any of this.
We’re just a different flavor of asshole.
Speaking of, where’s HM been lately?
Keeping Russia and China apart was the primary goal of our foreign policy until recently. Not sure when that changed – maybe 2014 with the Ukraine coup, maybe earlier.
I’m not really disagreeing with you, just saying it wasn’t so much stupid foreign policy as it was evil foreign policy.
I think we should embrace the power of “and”.

“The husband of famous author Lindy West has unleashed a furious tirade against a reporter, branding them as ‘a bitter, untalented, mean-girl’ after they wrote a review of West’s new tome.
West, 44, made a slew of shocking admissions about her polyamorous relationship in her new memoir Adult Braces, which dropped earlier this month.
In the book, West sensationally described in detail how she reluctantly agreed to enter into a throuple with her husband, Ahamefule J. Oluo and his partner Roya Amirsoleymani.
Following the explosive tome’s release, Slate writer Scaachi Koul published a lengthy profile and interview with West.
But Oluo has now lashed out at Koul, accusing her of ‘intentionally skewing the story to fit her own bitter narrative’ and ‘intentionally diminishing his personhood and career.'”

Pinch hitting for Tres in an odd way: Lindy West would be cute if she lost about 100+ pounds. Speaking of: “She is the author of several essay collections including Shrill: Notes from a Loud Woman. Topics she writes about include feminism, popular culture, film, and the fat acceptance movement.”
Shrill Notes from a Loud Woman: Her sex-tape audio, I’m sure. Woe on that, and wonder why throupling isn’t for you. (Or anyone. I’m convinced ‘polyamorous’ shit is one person wanting to fuck others and dragging the unwilling, but too afraid/attached to what she can get to contemplate leaving, so they are ‘forced’ to involve themselves in the play.)

Okay Glibs I’ve got another oddity of a question – Did the smoking pipe exist in the old world prior to the introduction of tobacco? If so, what was smoked in it?
Id assume yes and assume anything psychedelic or thought to have medicinal properties like smooth sumac
“Archaeological investigation has linked the first smoking pipes, made of copper, to Egypt around 2000 B.C. The pipes were found inside of tombs, next to mummies, though it’s not clear if the pipes were used for religious ceremonies or were recreational. Romans, Greeks, Celts, and Nordic tribes also smoked pipes, probably having picked it up from their travels east. Hippocrites – the Greek who gave birth to medicine and the Hippocratic Oath – prescribed “smoking herbs in a pipe” to treat female maladies. Another Greek, Herodotus, known as the “father of history,” noted Iranian tribes smoking “burning leaves” in 500 B.C.”

Hippocrates probably told everyone smoking was bad but could be found behind the temple lighting one up in the morning.

But even for those who live in the whitest of suburbs, if they have to travel, that means going to an airport, usually in a city, where they get a full eyeball of the broad spectrum of people that constitute how Americans actually look: people of different races and ethnicities, queer people and the purple-haired feminists much discussed but rarely spotted in person in MAGA-land.
(I may be a middle-aged white lady, but being a tattooed hipster flavor means that even I get a taste of how some conservatives loathe having to be among the hoi polloi when I’m at the airport in certain parts of the country. Last time I was in Midland, Texas, I passed the time waiting for my flight by counting the number of dirty looks I got from conservative-looking white people in the lobby. As I nursed my Starbucks and played games on my iPhone, I felt like a real antifa super solider.)”

The projection is extremely strong here.
Uh huh…
lol Yes it is. Stop lying, Amanduh.
Your side would rather starve our TSA heroes to death (stay with me here) than pursue the exact same policies on vibrant newcomers that your side supported until Donald came on the scene.
Ok, I hate Amanduh and her ilk, and am in favor of deporting people until we have an actual labor shortage, but that’s not reason enough for me to object starving TSA agents. I want my cake and to eat it too, especially in front of starving TSA agents.
I currently don’t live in a large city and except for the college crowd it’s like 90% white here.
Is that not part of “how Americans actually look”?
JFC seek medical attention.
She felt like a real antifa super solider!
Good luck NYS Glibs.

TLDR – we want to undoing a bunch of public sector pension reform, but we want to do it without legislation or public debate.
Paywalled but IIRC unlike say IL or CA (and NJ?), NY is not quite about to fall off that cliff like those other states are. Not to say that the state is not under the complete control of public sector unions, but at least everyone pays attention to those watchdogs or at least pretends to.
I’m at the point where I’d be OK with NYS GovSec workers winding up starving and living under bridges.
Sorry, UCS.
I just figured you were already ambivalent about my living conditions before this.
“A platform is merely a place to go.”
True, but the US Government is still going after Kim Dotcom for MegaUpload, and they put Ross Ulbricht in jail for Silk Road until Trump pardoned him. So it seems precedent is set, unless the SC decides to change it.
“Woke Hollywood Star and Trump-Hating Actor Alan Ritchson Beats Neighbor in Front of CHILDREN”

STIJLTH
Wasn’t this where the neighbor instigated and kept escalating?
Yup. Some fairly skeevy looking zoomer on youtube had the entire video and it really did look like the neighbor is going for a ghetto lottery payout.
Shhhh Gatewaypundit has a narrative to push.
Except Ritchson’s helmet cam video shows the neighbor jumping in front of Ritchson’s bike, causing him to lay it down, and then after he gets back up pushing him over before Ritchson finally responded, and actually showed a lot of restraint when he did. I doubt I would have been able to restrain myself from beating the living shit out that asshole at that point.
Teaching your kids the appropriate levels of violence to employ is something a good parent should do.
The silver lining:
Good.
Asshole neighbor will no doubt file a civil suit.
So, anyway… I went out and bought a laser printer a couple of weeks ago. Cheapest bottom of the line Brother I could find. I finally got around to taking it out of the box yesterday, and right on top is acard which says, “Download the app!”
WTF? How did it come to be that every thing in life from your car to your toaster to your water heater has to be linked to your phone?
Plus, am I just completely losing it, or are the little pictogram “instructions” on the set up sheet intended for use by some variety of sub literate space aliens?
hopefully, you can just plug it in and ignore the app nonsense. A printer doesn’t need it, but some dumb shit could have done something phenominally obnoxious like making features locked behind it. *glares at 3D Printer Camera*
Mine didn’t require any app to download. Just connect to the computer and look for printers. Download drivers as needed.
“Plus, am I just completely losing it, or are the little pictogram “instructions” on the set up sheet intended for use by some variety of sub literate space aliens?”
I hate that shit.
The issue I have with printers is the way every windows update is a game of printer Russian roulette. Oh, you wanted the printer/scanner to still work after the update? Sorry, time to buy a new one.
Yeah sometimes features are buried in the “app”.
ISTR needing that for mine, maybe scanning?
On a Mac, you should be able to use Image Capture for scanning.

She was never “moderate”. That’s not particularly shocking.
OTH, did you know that she was a naval aviator who flew helicopters?
She’s as bad as Spanberger (is that her name), right?
Yes, she’s crazy left, but unlike AOC couches it in moderate tones.
The only thing that constrains her is lack of funding.

More politicians should be on drugs. Sufficient drugs to keep them out of trouble. Obviously this guy isn’t dosing her enough.
“A new video released by O’Keefe Media Group with the Citizen Justice League has revealed homeless people on Skid Row being paid to forge signatures and use the names and addresses of registered voters for ballot petitions.
These homeless people are paid $2 to $3 per form to sign as a real registered voter, James O’Keefe said. He said that the names and addresses of thousands of registered voters were found being handed out to the homeless. “The fraudulent petition circulator pulls out a list of names so that the homeless person can enter the name, address, and signature of a registered voter in Southern California,” he said, with the process of registering a homeless person to vote being skipped.”

There is no cannibalism in the Royal Navy!
Not to be overly superstitious, but naming a complex ship after a guy best known for being bizarrely accident prone was probably a mistake.
Ahh the King’s Men.
Retired officers don’t need a separate license to carry a concealed gun because the federal Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act of 2004 gives them that right, and federal courts have backed it. But a New Jersey state law expands retired officers’ carry rights — allowing things like open carry and carrying hollow-point ammunition and higher-capacity magazines — if they get a special “retired police officers permit” that has an age cap and qualification requirements.
https://newjerseymonitor.com/2026/03/24/nj-gun-carry-permit-lawsuit/
Apparently NY has a similar “qualification” requirement. That activity happens fairly often at my club. I don’t know if we get paid for that service or if it’s offered as a courtesy.
“Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) is a member of a secret Facebook group where users have posted content appearing to glorify Hamas in the wake of its October 7 terrorist massacre in Israel….
The group is run by Palestinian activist Maher Abdel-Qader, a longtime Tlaib ally with a documented history of antisemitic rhetoric. Abdel-Qader has previously shared content describing Jews as “satanic” and casting doubt on whether six million Jews were killed in the Holocaust. He also served as chairman of Tlaib’s finance committee during her 2018 campaign, has donated thousands to her campaigns, and has appeared alongside her at multiple events. Tlaib publicly honored him during her campaign, presenting him with a medal in recognition of his support.
Since Oct. 7, 2023, Abdel-Qader has continued to post inflammatory content, including falsely claiming that Israel was responsible for a deadly explosion at a Gaza hospital, an assertion later debunked by intelligence reports pointing to a failed rocket launch from the Palestinian side. Tlaib also amplified the claim.”

This is OK, but Facebook wouldn’t allow people to discuss covid.
Let joy be unrestrained
Democrat Emily Gregory won a Florida special election on Tuesday, flipping a state legislative district that is home to Mar-a-Lago, the Palm Beach estate that President Donald Trump counts as his residence.
The president had endorsed Gregory’s rival, Jon Maples. In a social media post Monday, he urged voters to turn out, saying Maples was backed “by so many of my Palm Beach County friends.”
Democrats celebrated the victory as the latest sign voters are turning against Trump and Republicans ahead of the midterm elections in November. Tuesday was the latest in a series of lopsided or improbable victories in special elections across the country since Trump returned to the White House more than a year ago.
We all love a good gloat.
I know absolutely nothing about the candidates, but- touching back on yesterday’s discussion, the politician wing of the Republican party seems to unfailingly put forth the dumbest and most odious people they can find, and then profess bafflement when the little people stay away from the polls in droves.
“If Mar-a-Lago is vulnerable, imagine what’s possible this November,” said Heather Williams, president of the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee. She said Tuesday’s race was the 29th seat that Democrats have flipped from Republican control since Trump took office.
Yes, of course. “Generic Democrat” will slaughter “MAGA racist plutocrat” and America will be snatched from the jaws of despotic tyranny.
Be afraid people. Be afraid. Also be sure to long PFE.
