Last piece of the puzzle… and yeah, we went big 😈 If it didn’t turn heads before… it will now!

@SonnyCrockett92 best TV show ever created

Did you know? Michael Mann’s visual rules on Miami Vice were absolute. This wasn’t just a show with pastel suits and cool cars. It was controlled down to the smallest detail. Costume designer Jodie Tillen said Mann’s standing order was simple: no earth tones and no red. He wanted the series to live in a stylized palette of pastels, ocean blues, whites, and neon-lit night colors. Edward James Olmos later said Mann controlled everything, even down to how the flowers on the trees were painted if they clashed with the mood of the shot. That’s how locked in the show’s look was. Miami Vice didn’t just capture an aesthetic — it enforced one. See you out there, pal. 🌴☀️

Do you mainly stand forward or backward while showering? I’m trying to see something.

Amazon just got caught running a secret price manipulation operation with Levi's, Home Depot, Walmart, and many more. Every time you "comparison shopped" online, you were looking at prices that were already rigged. Here's what happened: Amazon would monitor prices on Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, and Chewy in real time. The second a competitor listed a product cheaper than Amazon, they'd contact the brand directly and tell them to "fix it." And the exact emails are now PUBLIC. Amazon sent Levi's links to two Walmart listings with the subject line "styles of concern." They basically said the prices on Walmart are too low and we have a problem. The next day, Levi's responded: "I talked to Walmart and they have partnered with us to take Easy Khaki Classic fit back up to ladder SPP price, $29.99 immediately." Levi's literally called Walmart and told them to raise the price. Because Amazon told Levi's to make the call. Walmart complied. Then Amazon matched the HIGHER price. Both retailers ended up charging more. The customer paid extra. Nobody competed. Same playbook with Hanes: Amazon sent them links showing Target and Walmart prices were lower. Hanes confirmed they "reached out to Target and Walmart to have the prices increased." Target increased the prices. Walmart increased the prices. Amazon kept their margins. But it gets even worse... Amazon told Allergan (the company that makes eye drops) that their product was "suppressed" on Amazon because it was cheaper on another site. Allergan responded: "Walmart got their price back up to $16.99." Amazon then unsuppressed the listing. They did this with pet treats on Chewy. Furniture on Home Depot. Products across dozens of categories spanning YEARS. The mechanism is simple but terrifying: If you're a brand and you sell cheaper on Walmart than on Amazon, Amazon suppresses your product, removes you from the Buy Box, buries you in search results, and effectively makes you invisible to 300 million customers. Brands can't afford that. So they call Walmart and Target and say "raise your prices or we'll lose our Amazon listings." Walmart and Target comply because they need the brand's products. Amazon captures 40 cents of every dollar spent online in America. That gives them the leverage to set prices across THE ENTIRE internet. Not just their own platform. So turns out, you were never comparison shopping. You were looking at a coordinated price floor set by Amazon through backroom phone calls between brands and their competitors. "Amazon is working to make your life more unaffordable." 3 separate antitrust trials are now scheduled for 2027. The FTC has its own case. 18 states plus the DOJ are piling on. This is literally happening during the WORST affordability crisis in a generation. Groceries up 25% since 2020. Housing unaffordable. Wages flat. And the largest ecommerce company on Earth has been secretly coordinating with brands to make sure you can't find a cheaper price ANYWHERE. "Competition" in retail is just a fantasy.

In 1928, George Orwell went to Paris because he wanted to see what it was like to be poor. He rented a cheap room, ran out of money faster than expected, and ended up washing dishes in hotel kitchens for twelve to fourteen hours a day. The work was brutal in a boring way. Hot steam, greasy plates, shouting chefs, no breaks. You stood until your legs stopped working. When the shift ended, there was just enough time to eat badly and sleep before doing it again. When he got sick, no one helped much. You missed a shift, you lost the job. Later, in England, he lived among tramps and slept in shelters because he had nowhere else to go. He kept notes the whole time… He turned the experience into Down and Out in Paris and London. The book shows what happens when life becomes logistical and dignity turns into something you can’t afford. That period stayed with him. Long after he became famous, his writing never forgot how fragile comfort is, or how fast a person can slide from being someone to being invisible.

@JeffBezos I had no idea Jeff is is playing with rockets.

@patinaresearch This would look sooooo much better with Temu gamer PC RGB lights everywhere 😜🤡🤪

@ThisIsFormu1a1 article: “Max Verstappen is pretty quick and no one has a clue why.” You’re welcome.

🚨| Mysterious Max Verstappen trick has GT world speculating: — Daniel Juncadella recently sparked intrigue by revealing that Max Verstappen, as a newcomer to GT racing, was employing a technique unfamiliar to seasoned GT specialists. Speaking to media, Juncadella noted: “Max is doing something that lets him stay unusually close to competitors, even in corners where dirty air is typically a problem.” — NLS commentator Peter Mackay observed Verstappen's performance and suggested he might have discovered a way to exploit a weak spot in the turbulent slipstream. Mackay remarked: “Max found a weak spot in the turbulent slipstream, allowing him to drive closer to someone without destroying the front tyres.” — Despite these observations, the exact nature of Verstappen's method remains elusive. RacingNews365 consulted Jeroen Bleekemolen, a former 24 Hours of Nürburgring winner, for his insights. Bleekemolen commented: “Of course you can set the car a bit. But still difficult to drive behind someone then. He does have an extreme amount of confidence, which does allow him to set it a little bit without going off.” — Bleekemolen also speculated on other possible techniques Verstappen might be using, such as left-foot braking to maintain the car's nose position. He explained: “It could also be that he's braking more with the left foot to keep the nose down. [He could be] operating both pedals at the same time, overlap that is called. But many drivers do that.” — The GT racing community remains curious about Verstappen's approach, with many agreeing on its effectiveness but unable to pinpoint the exact method. The upcoming 24 Hours of Nürburgring may provide further insights into Verstappen's mysterious technique. #maxverstappen 🇳🇱 VIA: [RacingNews365]

It depends. There are people out there on the market searching for jobs that have an incredibly wide range of skills, experiences and interests. They have the ability to meaningfully fill 10-20 entirely different positions. A custom CV for each different position should be created to meaningfully reflect the RELEVANT experiences for the individual opening. This is why generic CVs for everything are useless. This is not “rewriting” or “inventing” experiences and skills. It is highlighting the relevant skills and experiences for the job.

@TimJayas Great. even more BS resumes to sift through and people sending these get further from the truth of who they, what they have done and what they even want to do.

@mamboitaliano__ It’s all over Europe now.

This video about Italy 🇮🇹 has a small mistake It says Rome, but it’s Naples, around “Porta Nolana” and the station district But that’s not the point What matters is the decay swallowing our cities at an alarming speed I don’t know where this is heading

You sir single-handedly do the most important work in all Ai related research! One day you will eventually be discovered and taken seriously by some of the major Ai companies and your most valuable deep Ai research will be reaffirmed and lead to massive leaps in development of Ai tools … … or not answer will co Timur to have shit and completely useless chatbots for the masses to make us even dumber … probably.
