Iran

Iran

Well, we’ve been deserved our revenge since 1979.

The Iran hostage crisis refers to the November 1979 seizure of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran by Iranian militants who held 52 American citizens hostage for 444 days. The crisis, which occurred in the aftermath of the Iranian Revolution, significantly strained U.S.-Iran relations and impacted both countries’ domestic politics. 

 

 

Why buy movies?

Why buy movies?

I buy a DVD set for $21, long after no one is buying DVDs anymore. I go to play a NEW disc, and the damn thing keeps freezing on TWO of the episodes. If I just pirated it, I souldn’t have that problem.

Also my Rush Hour 3 won’t ever work either that I purchased.

 

Got to hear Henry Samueli Cofounder, Broadcom speak / Net worth $24 billion

Got to hear Henry Samueli Cofounder, Broadcom speak / Net worth $24 billion

This guy was at a graduation at UCLA I attended. The school is named after him because he donated $200 million haha. One student said they had no idea “the guy was even alive.” He gave a great inspiration speech to the graduates and probably the best speech they’ll ever hear in business. You probably have to spend money to hear that level of a talk normally.

Guess we can thank him for literally everything.

Half the graduates were CS degrees. They’re sure fucked with AI. haha. That degree is so useless now. No one cares.

It took 2 hours to read the students names. It was torture. At another UCSD graduation they had AI read the names but they fucked up and the names were read over each other.

My joke was, hey can I have $20. My kid said, he’d probably only have a five.

GTA-Style Game MindsEye Has a New Gameplay Trailer, a $60 Price Point, and a Content Rollout Plan

Update: MindsEye Co-CEO Claims There Is a ‘Concerted Effort’ by Some to ‘Trash the Game and the Studio,’ Suggests People Are Being Paid or Using Spam Bots to Post Negative Comments

Man, is that trailer dialog AI or what? It’s like having a computer read you the video. I wonder if their single player was also made by AI.

The comments are pretty funny

They’re so boring. Geeze, just makes you want to load up the old ones. I accidentally watched the 2001 Panet of the Apes movie also, thinking it was part of the series.

  • Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (2024) – cute girl at least
Remember websites?

Remember websites?

People used to go to them to read random content. Now you just “doom scroll” (my kids say), x.com or Instagram and it’s better content than you’ll ever see on a web page. But the kids say it dumbs you down and hours go by. They sometimes self police by uninstalling, then coming back months later.

Fucker tried to rob us

Fucker tried to rob us

We’re sitting there loading our car with groceries, all 3 of us. This guy asked if we spoke Spanish but wasn’t of that race. We said, no, no money. They were trying to ask for money. Then they hung around, while looking around to see if there was any witnesses to what they were about to do. Then saw there was nothing to steal in my car or we didn’t have our phones or wallets out to steal and no jewelry. Then he goes running off into the bushes to hide. 5pm in a HIGH CROWDED AREA.
