The message for Blue Wave 2026? Don’t Tread On Me GOP!

@Rizkingit @VictorKvert2008 Calestenics

@VictorKvert2008 what was happening to the soldier that was moving after the explosion?

Orc sappers

@BDisgusting Oh cool they remade Airport ‘77.

From the director of Deep Blue Sea and Die Hard 2, watch the new trailer for DEEP WATER. Renny Harlin's Deep Water releases in theaters May 1. A flight from LA to Shanghai goes down. After surviving the crash, the survivors must now survive the shark infested waters.

This song is already in the running to be song of the summer 2026.

This is the funniest thing I’ve seen on the internet. Afroman had his house raided by Ohio Adam County deputies… who found absolutely nothing… broke his door, trashed his place, allegedly had $400 go missing… and then they refused to pay for the damages. So, like any reasonable rapper would do… He turned his home security footage into music videos, mocking them. And then, the deputies sued him for FOUR MILLION dollars… because they didn’t like being made fun of. And Afroman’s response? He dropped ANOTHER music video. In his own words: “Unconfidential informant lied to Police to get out of some trouble. Adam County Sherriff officers made a mistake by believing the lie. Raided my house, found nothing, refused to pay for the damages and filed a lawsuit against me, Afroman, for exercising my freedom of speech! This is me holding trial in one song. I hope you enjoy it.” They said his videos “ridiculed” them… so he decided to show them what that actually looks like. And the best part? A jury basically said… yeah… you don’t get to raid someone’s home, end up in their surveillance footage, and then cry because they used it to make fun of you.

@RealBababanaras Pakistan right now…

BREAKING: Saudi Arabia has reportedly asked Pakistan to repay a USD 6.3 billion loan after Pakistan failed to honor the bilateral defense pact, under which an attack on one is considered an attack on both. Saudi officials are reportedly unable to reach Pakistan’s PM & army chief.

What does AI “turn” into when it trains on AI? The more AI is used the more AI product is available which increases the chance that an AI model will incorporate AI products into its learning. What effect does that have on subsequent AI production?

@NadavPollak @lauferlaw Did the “training” skip over proper fore-grip techniques and trigger discipline?

There are so many things happening right now, but people truly don't understand the massacre that was avoided in the Michigan Synagogue. The terrorist probably had some training as a teenager in Lebanon (Hezbollah has "summer camps" for young boys). I wonder if kept training on his shooting skills since then. He could have killed dozens that day. The security guard that stopped him is such a hero

I hope everyone realizes that if Trump is elected next week, we’re going to end up in a shooting war with Iran.

@Kalebfenoir @allenanalysis It's not so much a matter of pride but effectiveness. They want to affect the battlefield as much as possible so the enemy has trouble or is unable to respond. Hitting a school makes no sense in that respect.

@Buckaroo1967 @allenanalysis Makes you wonder. But considering that school was removed from the base property something like 10 years ago, you'd THINK there would have been updates to the information the Tomahawks used. If there was updates... then someone deliberately changed it to a target.

Sen. Wicker just tried to clean up Gillibrand’s statement in real time — and she didn’t let him. 💪🔥 Wicker: “You did not mean to say that we targeted a school?” Gillibrand: “That missile hit a school.” She then pressed for an open hearing on how a target was selected that turned out to be a school — even if it sat next to a naval base. This is a sitting U.S. Senator refusing to soften the language on a strike that hit a school. On the record. In a hearing. And demanding transparency on the targeting process.

@allenanalysis It's been reported that DoD used AI to select targets in Iran. Did the military use AIfor the target selection that resulted in a school being struck by a Tomahawk missile? Is there human review of AI generated targets? Was there in this case? x.com/i/status/20292…

@Kalebfenoir @allenanalysis Early reports talk of how the DoD utilized AI tools like Anthropic's Claude to develop target lists in a very short time. Did the target selection process for this Tomahawk include AI generation at any point?

@allenanalysis I find it hard to believe that a country that surveils its enemies and allies down to meter-by-meter movements, and brags about how accurate their missiles and bombs can be that they can hit down to a 1ft radius of accuracy... can 'accidentally' hit a school.

@theiaincameron I could see it floated on an anchored platform like a sea bouy.

It is estimated that the Orbis et Globus will run out of land in 2047, meaning that Iceland will no longer be an Arctic country (well, at least until the Earth's axis moves back again). Whether the ball is pushed into the sea or is left at the edge is not currently known... /4/4

At present, all five Nordic countries straddle the Arctic circle (Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark (via Greenland), and Iceland). However, Iceland is just clinging on, and in the near-future it will lose its place in that list altogether. 1/4

@TolkienWorldG What really killed the Witch-King of Angmar was monologging.

Éowyn defeated the Witch-king not solely because she was a woman, but due to other circumstances that the films did not explore in depth: Centuries before the War of the Ring, the Elf-lord Glorfindel prophesied that the Witch-king of Angmar would not fall “by the hand of man.” Many interpreted this as meaning he was invincible. It was never a spell, only a prophecy. At the Battle of the Pelennor Fields, Merry’s stroke proved decisive. His blade was one of the ancient weapons of Westernesse, forged during the wars against Angmar and enchanted against the Witch-king. When Merry struck, the blade shattered the sorcery that bound the Nazgûl’s form together. With that power broken, Éowyn was able to deliver the fatal blow, fulfilling the prophecy as it had long been foretold, that the Witch-king would fall at the hands of one who was no man.

@Mikeachim That spurred a thought in my head, what did the in-rush that refilled the Med sound like? For that matter what would the decibel level have been?

One year to refill the Mediterranean. Or perhaps even less time. Or perhaps a couple of years! The point here is: this DIDN'T take centuries, or even decades. It was terrifyingly fast. (It must have seemed like the end of the world.) 11/

...and the Mediteranean started drying up. After some undetermined period of time, the Mediterranean was empty - evaporated down to a desert & a series of huge, super-salty lakes. A vast, salty desert bowl - *kilometres* deep. (This is not the wild thing.) 4/

@mrmikeMTL I’m Gen X so it was a series of slaps, arm punches, and swear words.

People who were teenagers before social media existed, How did you communicate with your friends?

@CoveredGeekly Take all my money ! TAKE IT!

Nathan Fillion teases that a 'Firefly' announcement is coming March 15 It's widely speculated to be a reboot with the original cast (via IG | instagram.com/p/DVeaFkfEVbS/)

I’m a chemist. I need to say this - because it’s getting dangerous out there. The biggest health myth in the world isn’t about vaccines. Or GMOs. Or fluoride. It’s the root of all of them. It’s called chemophobia - and it’s killing science. Fear of “chemicals” now drives vaccine rejection, GMO bans, food hysteria, and entire political movements. From tampons to tap water, people have been taught to fear chemistry - the very thing that keeps us alive. Chemophobia tells us: “Natural is good.” “Synthetic is bad.” That’s a lie. Botulinum toxin is 100% natural and one of the deadliest molecules known. Aspirin is synthetic and life-saving. We’ve gone from banning harmful substances for good reason…to banning safe, well-tested molecules for emotional reasons. You’ve seen the slogans: “If you can’t pronounce it, don’t eat it.” “Paraben-free.” “Clean beauty.” They sound empowering. But they’re not science - they’re marketing. And they’re making the world dumber, poorer, and sicker. Your body doesn’t care if a molecule comes from a plant or a lab. Vitamin C is vitamin C. Formaldehyde is formaldehyde and your body makes more of it every day than any vaccine ever could. Dose matters. Source doesn’t. This fear isn’t harmless. It shapes public policy. It blocks innovation. It raises food prices. It slows down cancer treatments. Chemophobia is now mainstream and it’s costing lives. Scientists aren’t losing because we’re wrong. We’re losing because fear spreads faster than facts. Because influencers sell fear for clicks. Because lawyers monetize doubt. And because scientists are too tired to fight back. So here’s my message, as a chemist and as a citizen: Learn how toxicology works. Call out chemical fear-mongering. Support policies based on evidence, not emotion. Chemistry isn’t the enemy. It’s the reason you have clean water, safe food, and modern medicine. If we let fear win, we lose all of it.

@tomfgoodwin I've also wondered how the product quality of LLMs will be maintained. As AI outputs increase the likelyhood of LLMs using AI output increases. So instead of using 1st source human verified data LLMs will use 2nd and 3rd source (ie copy of a copy) unverified data more often.

@tomfgoodwin I see that situation only getting worse. LLMs require access to vast stores of data and now that people realize the value of their data they're locking LLMs out. The effect is that LLMs will be working on data that is stale and from relatively smaller databases.

I asked Claude to write a white paper on the differences between long form and short form Monsteras ( something I’ve been researching for a while) It produced 2000 words of nonsense I said “ this is nonsense” It said it ran out of tokens half way in and apologized I said “that’s not true” And it apologized again, said it lied, and said there wasn’t much literature out there on it I said that wasn’t true And it said “ there is but I can’t access it” So there I am wasting time getting something that’s very nicely written, contains errors, and is based on 3 Reddit posts smashed together I’m absolutely amazed how few people seem to realize how poor the work done is in areas like this. And yet in other areas of research it could be superb There’s a long process ahead for people trying to learn when to and when not to use it. But the idea this approach will challenge strategy roles. Only makes sense if we assume nobody ever really needs outputs that are especially good Which could indeed be the case

@hurmos @ScottiePippen @grok @game5ball It’s two points because of the mid-air clause, “as long as the ball is released mid-air”. If you look the shooter is clearly on the downward part of his arc when he releases the ball.

@ScottiePippen @grok @game5ball it's three points

Let's try this again. 👇🏾 Drop your answers below. Trivia: Is this a 2 or a 3 point play? @grok @game5ball
