Paul bloody McCartney?!
How low is the bar mate?
Horatio Nelson, Captain James Cook, Isaac Newton, William Shakespeare, Charles Darwin, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, Michael Faraday, Alexander Fleming, Alan Turing, Tim Berners Lee, Frank Whittle, Joseph Priestley, Elizabeth I, James Watt, Alexander Graham Bell, John Logie Baird, James Watt all not making the shortlist? Despite changing the course of history and the world?

Who is the greatest living Briton ? I think I would nominate paul McCartney. Any other contenders ?

@GadSaad I’ve read Kafka when I was in junior high school. Nothing compares. 💪
English
I’m reading about Franz Kafka’s instruction to his friend Max Brod that all of his materials be burned. Luckily, Brod did not obey those wishes for we would have never seen many of Kafka’s greatest works (e.g., The Trial). Earlier this week, I hosted Heribert Tenschert on The Saad Truth. He purchased Kafka’s handwritten version of The Trial in 1988. Life is truly wondrous.

@walterkirn An eagle flew over our heads to the right. Let’s go!

Let's meet!
Tonight in LA. Film screening & Q&A with the director/s , which I've been invited to join. This appearance means everything to me & came about just yesterday, by chance. In another version of my life, one which split off in 1973 when I was eleven, I became a marine biologist who worked with dolphins. Like Lilly. It is almost my greatest secret -- so vivid to me has been my alternate life. But I caught up with it yesterday. By coincidence.
I am bursting to see and talk about the movie, which I didn't know was out there until I happened by the theater on a walk.

Through an uncanny series of coincidences which took place just this morning I will be part of a Q&A following this screening in LA tomorrow (Saturday) night. LOVE to see you there. John Lilly and the Earth Coincidence Control Office – Brain Dead Studios studios.wearebraindead.com/movies/john-li…

ちょっと待って！ ピーナッツバターが甘くないってどう言う事？？？
ぐたっくま@Fraw_DMC
アメリカ人は、日本のピーナッツバターが甘いことに衝撃を受け、 日本人は、アメリカのピーナッツバターが甘くなく塩味であることに衝撃を受けている。 長年の誤解が、今解消される瞬間が来ているのか！

She’s a decent looking girl but surely Supergirl, like Superman, should look so good as to be almost god-like.
Fandom Pulse@fandompulse
Warner Bros. dropped new photos of Milly Alcock as Supergirl. Does this make you want to see the movie more?

@jonatanpallesen @JohnCleese John wishes that a girl would have been molested so he can feel better about himself.
Who’s the perverted here?

@JohnCleese Post about the real paedophilic grooming gangs in your own country instead of these fake images

@TheBrettJenson @venturetwins That’s a horror movie chin. And the eyes?
😳
English
@venturetwins Sure thing… Notice how her arm is blocking part of her eyes and then the chin is sticking out, then look at the AI photo. The arm is just barely covering the mouth, and the chin is still sticking out. That is not how faces look.

I'm really impressed by the Grok Imagine upgrade.
There's a new "quality" mode where your images take (slightly) longer to generate, but the results are shockingly good.
I've been testing it for the last few days - a couple things to try 👇

Imagine winning this hard. Impossible

Victor Glover (pilot of Artemis II) was already a spacecraft pilot for SpaceX Crew-1. He is a naval captain who has had his naval aviator wings for 25 years. He has three (3) masters degrees, including in flight test engineering and systems engineering. He's been a test pilot since 2007. He has thousands of flight hours.
English
The human brain processes visual information 60,000x faster than text. Humans are visual processors, not text processors. Images hit the brain instantly. Words take work. That's why a single SpaceX launch video communicates more than a thousand-word essay—and why your slide decks hit harder than paragraphs. We're wired for pictures, not prose.

Can you see any of those from the moon?

@ConceptualJames @michaelmalice How cool would that building look if designed in a cyberpunk style.
English
@michaelmalice The problem with his statement here is that the building is plainly designed to make an architectural statement and is not indifferent. It doesn't look like a building made out of a bunch of servers by accident.
English
Indifference to appearance and surroundings is an architectural statement
david atkins@atkins_dja
@michaelmalice Data centers are not designed to make architectural statements. They are designed to be functional.

David Lowery is another great director. Check out his films A GHOST STORY and GREEN KNIGHT.

@CynicalPublius I hardly found some on Amazon.de. Very scarce.

For those asking... yes it's still out there.

@Devon_Eriksen_ @learning_yohei I wear sunglasses even in winter. 🤷♂️

@learning_yohei Many of us have blue eyes. We see better in darkness, but bright light is uncomfortable for us.
