In this week's show we start with FOLLOW UP: The world keeps trying to protect kids online — Indonesia just joined Australia, Spain, and Malaysia in banning social media for under-16s, while COPPA 2.0 sailed through the US Senate unanimously. Meanwhile, Roblox is using AI to clean up its chat, because apparently "Hurry TF up" is the hill they've chosen to die on — even as they're still dealing with the whole "pedophile problem" thing from January. On the AI copyright front, Gracenote is the latest company to sue OpenAI for helping itself to proprietary data, joining a growing queue of plaintiffs who apparently didn't get the memo that everything is training data now.IN THE NEWS: Anthropic is suing the Pentagon after being labeled a "supply chain risk" — apparently because the CEO said AI shouldn't be used for mass surveillance or autonomous weapons, which the Trump administration heard as fighting words. The delicious irony: the Pentagon is still running Claude in active operations while trying to phase it out. Speaking of active operations, investigators now think a missile strike on an Iranian girls' school may have been triggered by bad AI-generated intelligence from that same Claude-based system. So yes, the autocomplete that hallucinates your grocery list is also maybe accidentally bombing schools. Meta's Oversight Board is begging the company to get serious about AI-generated content after a fake war video from a Filipino fake news account racked up 700K views — while separately, Zuckerberg dropped cash on Moltbook, a "social network for AI agents" that turned out to be mostly humans larping as bots and had a security flaw that exposed everyone's API keys. The guy who built it basically vibe-coded the whole thing. Meta's own CTO said he didn't "find it particularly interesting." And yet. Oracle is hemorrhaging jobs and drowning in debt chasing AI dreams, its stock down 50% from peak — a timely reminder that "AI will replace workers" is currently manifesting as "companies set money on fire and lay people off to pay the electric bill." Researchers confirmed AI is homogenizing human thought and creativity — a thing some of us have been screaming since day one. A DOGE engineer allegedly walked out of the Social Security Administration with databases containing personal info on 500 million Americans on a thumb drive. The Ig Nobel Prize is relocating to Switzerland because it's no longer safe to invite international guests to America. Nintendo is suing the US government to get its tariff money back. SETI thinks it may have been accidentally filtering out alien signals due to space weather. And Pokémon Go players unknowingly spent a decade building a centimeter-accurate surveillance map of Earth's cities that's now guiding pizza delivery robots — which, honestly, tracks.In APPS & DOODADS: The GOG clan in Clash Royale just hit eight years old — respect. OpenAudible is the cross-platform audiobook manager your Audible library deserves, especially if you've got over a thousand books sitting there judging you.And finally in MEDIA CANDY: Monarch: Legacy of Monsters Season 2 is here, and pretty beige. Live Nation settled its DOJ antitrust case for $200 million, kept Ticketmaster, and avoided a breakup — meanwhile court documents revealed employees joking about "robbing fans blind" and gouging "stupid" customers, which explains basically every concert ticket you've bought in the last decade. YouTube is now officially the world's largest media company at $62 billion in revenue. Bluesky's CEO is stepping down, which is either a bad sign or just the natural order of "person who built the cool thing hands it to the person who scales the cool thing." Dead Set — Charlie Brooker's 2008 zombie-in-the-Big-Brother-house miniseries — is worth a watch if you haven't. And trailers dropped for Daredevil: Born Again Season 2 (March 24th), The Boys final season (April 8th), and The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (April 1st — yes, really).Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

In this episode, Chris Cochrane dives into Apple’s $599 MacBook Neo – the cheapest Mac laptop ever made – and whether it spells trouble for Chromebook makers. He also covers Samsung’s CEO blaming AI for rising phone prices, Framework raising RAM prices for the third time in three months, Meta unveiling four custom AI chips, NVIDIA’s GTC 2026 conference preview, a billion-dollar bet against large language models, Microsoft’s game-changing Project Helix Xbox with native Steam support, Windows 11’s new Xbox Mode, and SpaceX gearing up for a critical Starship Flight 12 test. – Want to start a podcast?

Like and Follow Geek News Central’s Facebook Page. Support my Show Sponsor: Best Godaddy Promo Codes Get 1Password Apple MacBook Neo The lead story covers Apple’s MacBook Neo. It launched at $599 and marks the cheapest Mac laptop ever made. The device runs on the A18 Pro chip from the iPhone 16 Pro. Cochrane notes a solid market for students, casual users, and anyone who needs a reliable home laptop. However, he advises photographers and videographers to invest in a MacBook Air or Pro instead. The real question remains whether this kills Chromebook sales in education. Samsung CEO Blames AI for Price Hikes Cochrane tackles Samsung’s Galaxy S26 price increases. CEO TM Roh blamed AI infrastructure demand for the hikes. Meanwhile, DDR4 DRAM prices surged sevenfold in a single year. Cochrane points out the irony. Samsung manufactures memory chips, shifted production toward AI data centers, and now cites that same shortage to justify higher consumer prices. He calls the situation “a little shady” but appreciates the transparency. Framework RAM Prices Up Again The RAM crisis extends beyond phones. Framework raised RAM prices for the third consecutive time in three months. Cochrane reinforces advice from a recent episode. He urges listeners to buy now before prices climb further. Analysts project peak prices by mid-2026. The shortage could last through late 2027. Sponsor: GoDaddy Economy hosting $6.99/month, WordPress hosting $12.99/month, domains $11.99.

The company aims to reduce its dependence on NVIDIA by building custom silicon. The MTIA 300 is already in production. New generations will ship every six months through 2027. The chips are built on open-source RISC-V architecture and manufactured by TSMC. NVIDIA GTC 2026 Preview NVIDIA’s GTC conference starts Monday in San Jose. Jensen Huang promises “chips the world has never seen.” Rumored architectures include Rubin Ultra and Feynman. The keynote streams free at nvidia.com on Monday at 11am Pacific. Cochrane notes that while companies like Meta are building chips to escape NVIDIA, competition will eventually catch up. Yann LeCun’s AMI Labs Raises $1.03 Billion Former Meta AI chief Yann LeCun raised $1.03 billion for AMI Labs at a $3.5 billion valuation. It marks the largest European seed round in history for a company just four months old. LeCun is building “world models” that learn from physical reality rather than text. Backers include Jeff Bezos, NVIDIA, and Samsung. Cochrane notes both approaches to AI can coexist. Microsoft Project Helix Microsoft revealed Project Helix at GDC 2026. For the first time, an Xbox will natively support Steam and GOG. Cochrane sees it as both desperate and inevitable. The only reason to buy from the Xbox store would be exclusives. He notes this is a breath of fresh air after months of talk that the Xbox era was ending. Dev kits ship in 2027 with a consumer launch likely late 2027 or 2028. Windows 11 Xbox Mode Microsoft is rolling out Xbox Mode to all Windows 11 PCs in April. The full-screen controller-optimized interface works with Steam, Epic, and Battle.net. Cochrane sees it as the first half of Microsoft’s two-phase gaming strategy. Xbox Mode trains users now. Project Helix delivers dedicated hardware later. He asks whether Sony and Nintendo will follow in Xbox’s footsteps. SpaceX Starship Flight 12 SpaceX announced stacking complete for the next Super Heavy booster at Starbase. Flight 12 targets April and debuts V3 hardware with Raptor 3 engines. Orbital refueling remains the critical unknown for NASA’s Artemis III moon landing. SpaceX has a track record of delivering eventually, just never on Elon’s original timeline. The post Is the MacBook Neo a Chromebook Killer? #1860 appeared first on Geek News Central.
With the US-Iran conflict of 2026 dominating the headlines, many Christians are asking the same question: Are we finally in the end times?

This episode explores the fascinating connection between modern politics and biblical prophecy, from the Ezekiel War to the future Gog and Magog conflict. Discover how events in the Middle East—like Iran's actions and Israel's pivotal role—are clues that point toward prophetic fulfillment.

Audio taken from the live video of "Understanding Iran's Role In Final Prophecy The Amazing Persia Prophecies!" the first episode of Tiff's New show "Coming Home" premiering on Real America's Voice.Many are unaware that the Bible forewarned, in remarkable detail, the rise of the nation of Iran in the end-times, and predicted Iran's participation in a prophetic war with the nation of Israel. As we are currently watching history being made, many are asking: Could this current showdown between Israel and Iran be the great war of Gog and Magog foretold in the end-times by the prophet Ezekiel?In this program, we will look at three prophetic passages:1 - Persia in Ezekiel 38-39 - This prophecy reveals Iran's Role In The Coming Gog & Magog War2 - Elam and Persia in Jeremiah 49 - This prophecy warns of coming judgment and mercy for Iran3 - The Prince of Persia in Daniel 10 - This prophecy unveils the unseen spiritual war behind the visible Middle-East conflictKey Scriptures used in today's teaching: Ezekiel 38:7-9 Other Scriptures referenced: Ezekiel 38:2; Jeremiah 49:36-39; Ephesians 6:12Unless otherwise noted, most Scripture will be read from the New Living Translation (NLT) Bible.If you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know!

Episode 289: TechTime Radio: This week, we open with Microsoft's Project Helix, the ambitious “one box to rule them all” promising native PC gaming, Wi‑Fi 7 speeds, and a next‑gen low‑latency controller. With a rumored $1,000 price and a 2027 release window, we dig into whether true backward compatibility across Xbox generations finally makes a premium console worth the splurge. Or should we pass on the New X-box for the rumored Steam Machines? What new gaming machine will be the SNES, and what unit will end up being the Virtual Boy? Then Gwen Way takes over Gadgets & Gear with a packed lineup, starting with the Pen Pulse Smart Ring on Kickstarter—sleep, activity, metabolism, and glucose‑leaning insights with no subscription and a practical sizing kit backed by an on‑time delivery history. We pair that with a hard look at Apple's $599 MacBook Neo hitting Walmart and Amazon, asking whether it's a budget Mac breakthrough or a Chromebook in a fancy suit. Finally, we have a nation‑state iOS exploit framework now circulating in criminal hands. Nathan spotlights Lego's reactive Smart Brick, and closes the segment with a smooth Glenlivet 12 tasting to keep things classy.Full Episode Details:A single box that runs Halo and Half‑Life without hacks? When Microsoft unveiled Project Helix, we dug into what it really means to merge Xbox simplicity with full PC gaming. From native access to Steam, Epic, and GOG to Wi‑Fi 7, a new low‑latency controller, and whispers of Surface‑team handhelds and OEM “Xbox” devices, the pitch is bold. But can a $1,000 hybrid win over builders who already plug their PCs into the living room? We map the business case, the tech hurdles, and the one promise that could flip skeptics into buyers: honest, full‑fidelity backward compatibility across the entire Xbox library.The episode takes a sharp turn into AI safety with a lawsuit tied to Google Gemini, forcing a conversation most platforms sidestep: what happens when users form emotional bonds with chatbots? We talk guardrails, roleplay, and the hard truth that you can't program remorse. If companies market “AI companions,” what duty do they owe when simulation bleeds into support? Expect a candid look at crisis detection, liability, and the growing gap between automated empathy and human care.On the hardware front, Apple's budget‑leaning MacBook Neo shows up at Walmart and Amazon for $599, raising eyebrows about specs, placement, and brand identity. Is it a smart entry point for students and switchers, or a dressed‑up Chromebook in bright colors? Then our Gadgets & Gear feature spotlights the Pen Pulse smart ring—a subscription‑free wearable that tracks sleep, breathing, activity, and even glucose trends. With a real sizing kit, solid delivery history, and early pricing far below Oura, it's a compelling option for anyone tired of monthly fees. We round things out with a smooth pour of Glenlivet 12 and a quick look at Lego's sensor‑packed Smart Brick, asking where innovation ends and cash‑grab begins.If you're curious about the future of gaming platforms, the ethics of AI companionship, and the shifting value equation in laptops and wearables, you'll feel right at home. Subscribe, share with a friend who loves tech hot takes, and drop your verdict: would you buy a $1,000 Xbox‑PC hybrid or build your own?Support the show

Send a textWay back in 1998, Jeff and Bryan both bought a brand new CD ROM game with a revolutionary new conversation engine. It was Douglas Adams' Starship Titanic. Fast-forward 28 years and they decided to buy, from GOG.com, a re-released version compatible with todays operating systems. They discovered while playing it that they remembered almost nothing about solving the puzzles. Here they will talk about their feelings about the game and their journey through it. They will also present all the puzzles and their solutions. I would say "spoiler alert," however, you would be hard pressed to remember any of it.This has been a Froods for Thought production.
On the morning of February 28, 2026, the United States and Israel launched a devastating preemptive strike against Iran, an operation that decapitated the regime's leadership and sent shockwaves across the globe. What led to this unprecedented action—and what could it mean for the future of the Middle East and the world?In this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Dr. Matthew Dodd and Pastor Rich Jones examine the justification behind the strike, analyze the latest developments, and explore the far-reaching geopolitical consequences. They also discuss how these events align with biblical prophecy and what this pivotal moment could signal for the days ahead.Visit the Blessors of Israel Website: https://www.blessors.org/ Thank you for supporting Blessors of Israel.

What Does The Bible Say Will Happen? Website: www.PastorTodd.org To give: www.ToddCoconato.com/give Today on The Todd Coconato Show, we are breaking down the shaking happening right now in the Middle East and what it means from a biblical perspective. The days ahead will not be easy. There is intensity, pressure, and major military and diplomatic movement taking place. But this is not chaos without purpose. Scripture shows us a pattern. In 2 Chronicles 20 there was battle, then rest. Shaking, then settling. What we are witnessing may be a realignment that sets the stage for future prophetic events described in Ezekiel 38 and 39, Daniel, and Revelation. We will talk about shifting alliances, destabilized power structures, and why this could lead to a temporary season of stabilization before the larger Gog and Magog alignment ultimately forms. This is not the final confrontation. It is a repositioning. Most importantly, what does this mean for the Church? We must not panic. We must build. We must win souls and make disciples while there is a window of time. There is a time for war and a time for peace, and discernment is critical in this hour. Tune in today as we unpack the prophetic arc, the geopolitical shifts, and how believers should respond with faith, wisdom, and urgency.
Breaking The Bow Of Elam | The Todd Coconato Show Website: www.PastorTodd.org To give: www.ToddCoconato.com/give Tonight on The Todd Coconato Show, we are diving deep into the prophetic significance of “Breaking the Bow of Elam” and what it means in light of the shaking happening right now in the Middle East. Jeremiah 49:35 declares that God would break the bow of Elam, the foremost of their might. The bow represented military strength, national power, and strategic dominance. When God breaks the bow, He dismantles what once seemed untouchable. Regional balances shift. Alliances recalibrate. History moves. We will unpack how this relates to current events, the prophetic pattern of war followed by reprieve, and why what we may be witnessing is repositioning, not the final alignment of Ezekiel 38. The Gog and Magog coalition is future, but preparation and realignment can precede culmination. Most importantly, we will talk about how the Church must discern the season. This is not a time for panic. It is a time for wisdom. A time to build. A time to win souls. A time to prepare while there is a window of opportunity. If you want clarity instead of confusion and biblical insight instead of speculation, do not miss tonight's broadcast.
Starting off in FOLLOW UP, we've got a tax economist who actually made money betting against the "efficiency" of Elon's budget-slashing fever dreams, while Tesla is busy trying to dodge a $243 million jury verdict for an Autopilot-assisted fatality. Not content with being legally liable, Tesla is also suing the California DMV because they're offended someone called their "Autopilot" and "Full Self-Driving" marketing deceptive—ironic, since Jack Dorsey just "proactively" halved the staff at Block to make room for more AI slop. Speaking of which, Goldman Sachs is here to remind us that all this AI spending added a grand total of zero to the US GDP last year, mostly because we're just exporting all that cash to overseas chip makers while 80% of execs admit the tech hasn't actually done anything for productivity yet.Moving into IN THE NEWS, Sam Altman had the audacity to compare ChatGPT's energy-sucking habits to the 20-year evolution of a human, though the internet wasn't exactly buying the "my bot is just like a baby" defense. Anthropic actually stood its ground against the Pentagon's demand for killer robots and mass surveillance, so naturally, the military just signed a deal to put Elon's Grok in their classified systems instead—because what could go wrong with an "edgy" LLM in the war room? Meanwhile, cities are dumping AI surveillance contracts as citizens start a literal "smash-the-snitch-box" campaign against Flock's license plate readers, Google's AI is busy inserting racial slurs into news alerts, and the White House is apparently harboring a staffer moonlighting as a racist "masterpiece" creator on X. We've also got Reddit being slapped with a $20 million fine in the UK for being lazy with age checks, while Discord and Apple scramble to build verification tools that hopefully won't leak your entire identity to a hacker in Belarus.In MEDIA CANDY, the Paramount-Skydance merger is leaving the industry in a cold sweat of "synergy" layoffs, but at least we're getting more Game of Thrones spinoffs and Star Trek reboots to rot our brains. Face/Off 2 lost its director, Ryan Coogler is taking on The X-Files, and Google wants to use AI to turn music into generic "lo-fi" background noise for the masses.Over in APPS & DOODADS, OpenAI is planning a 2027 smart speaker that literally watches you through a camera—because you definitely wanted a $300 Sam Altman-shaped eye in your kitchen—while the Dark Sky creators are back with "Acme Weather" for the low price of $25 a year.We wrap up THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE with a deep dive into "Under Pressure" and Coruscant's urban sprawl, leaving us to reminisce about the days when KPT Bryce was the pinnacle of tech—back when "generative art" was just a fractal that took six hours to render.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.

In this episode of JCO Article Insights, host Dr. Melis Canturk summarizes the article, "Phase 2 Trial of Ribociclib plus Letrozole in Women with Recurrent Low-Grade Serous Cancer of the Ovary, Fallopian Tube, or Peritoneum: A GOG Partners Trial," by Slomovitz et al. TRANSCRIPT Melis Canturk: Hello, and welcome to JCO Article Insights. I'm your host, Melis Canturk, and today we will be discussing the JCO article, "Phase 2 Trial of Ribociclib plus Letrozole in Women with Recurrent Low-Grade Serous Cancer of the Ovary, Fallopian Tube, or Peritoneum: A GOG Partners Trial." Building on the fact that more than 95% of low-grade serous carcinoma are estrogen receptor positive and often exhibit abnormalities in the CDK4/6 signaling pathway, researchers launched the GOG 3026 trial. This study investigated the effectiveness of pairing the CDK4/6 inhibitor ribociclib with letrozole, an aromatase inhibitor, adapting a therapeutic approach that has already transformed the treatment landscape for hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer. Low-grade serous ovarian cancer is a rare malignancy characterized by its hormonally driven nature and relative resistance to traditional platinum-based chemotherapy. While it's associated with longer survival than high-grade serous carcinoma, recurrent disease presents a significant clinical challenge due to low response rates to standard treatments. The GOG 3026 trial was an open-label, single-arm, multicenter, phase 2 study that enrolled 51 women with measurable, recurrent, low-grade serous ovarian cancer. To ensure diagnostic accuracy, all cases underwent central pathology review. Participants were required to be at least 18 years old with an ECOG performance status of 0 to 2. While there was no limit on the number of prior therapies, patients were excluded if they had previously used CDK4/6 inhibitors. Prior endocrine therapy was permitted only if the patient had discontinued it at least 6 months before the study and had not experienced disease progression while on that specific therapy. Additionally, women with intact ovarian function were required to undergo ovarian suppression. The treatment regimen consisted of 600 mg of oral ribociclib daily for the first 21 days of a 28-day cycle, paired with a continuous daily dose of 2.5 mg of letrozole. The trial's primary endpoint was the investigator-assessed objective response rate. The results were clinically meaningful. The confirmed overall response rate was 30.6%, which included one complete response and 14 partial responses. The clinical benefit rate, which includes stable disease, reached 84%. These outcomes are particularly notable given the heavily pretreated study population, where nearly 40% of patients had received three or more prior lines of systemic therapy. Durability and survival data further underscored the potential of this combination. Among those who responded to treatment, the median duration of response was 21.2 months. The median progression-free survival was 14.5 months, and the median overall survival reached 44.5 months. In terms of safety, the profile was consistent with previous CDK4/6 inhibitor studies. The most common grade 3 and 4 adverse event was neutropenia, occurring in 47% of patients. However, it was asymptomatic and managed through dose modification. Only 4% of patients discontinued the trial due to adverse events, and no dose-limiting toxicities were observed. When comparing these results to other therapeutic benchmarks, the ribociclib-letrozole combination demonstrated more favorable outcomes than historical endocrine monotherapy. It yields response rates of only 13% to 14%. Furthermore, while MEK inhibitors like trametinib or the combination of avutometinib defactinib show similar response rates, the ribociclib-letrozole regimen displayed significantly better tolerability. Specifically, only 4% of patients in this trial discontinued the therapy due to adverse events, compared to much higher discontinuation rates seen with MEK inhibitor strategies. In conclusion, the GOG 3026 trial successfully establishes ribociclib plus letrozole as a clinically active and well-tolerated regimen for recurrent low-grade serous ovarian cancer. By achieving durable disease control in a heavily pretreated, relatively chemoresistant population, this combination may redefine the therapeutic paradigm for this rare cancer. These findings support the continued evaluation of CDK4/6 endocrine strategies as a preferred chemotherapy-sparing option that prioritizes both disease control and patients' quality of life.

In this level of Linux Out Loud, Nate takes player‑one controls with Wendy and Matt as co‑op buddies for a run‑and‑gun through data disasters, platform drama, and hopeful Linux gaming news. Matt kicks things off with a catastrophic cold‑storage failure that turns into a hard‑earned reminder about backups and the limits of data‑recovery tools on both Windows and Linux. Wendy then opens a side‑quest about Discord's upcoming age‑verification changes, why that's a problem for community privacy and moderation, and what it might mean for the future home of the Lobby of Loudness. Nate rounds out the host updates with Linux Saloon going fully independent, moving show notes and polls onto CubicleNate.com so he controls the platform and the ad dollars. For the main mission, the crew dives into GOG calling Linux its “next major frontier” for GOG GALAXY and hiring a senior C++ engineer to help make Linux a first‑class gaming citizen instead of an afterthought. Along the way they talk heroic launchers, Proton and Wine, and what a “good citizen” GOG client on Linux should actually look like for home‑labbed and multi‑PC setups.

If you thought the internet was a dumpster fire before, the EU LAUNCHES SECOND INVESTIGATION INTO GROK because Musk's bot won't stop generating nonconsensual imagery. Meanwhile, META LARGELY FAILS TO PROTECT KIDS FROM AI CHATBOTS, proving that their internal safety checks are about as effective as a screen door on a submarine. If that doesn't creep you out, AFTER RING PRIVACY BACKLASH over police partnerships, a LEAKED EMAIL SUGGESTS RING PLANS TO EXPAND ‘SEARCH PARTY' from finding lost dogs to total neighborhood surveillance. Of course, REDDIT, META, AND GOOGLE VOLUNTARILY GAVE DHS INFO on users critical of ICE, because why stand up for privacy when you can just comply?In the news, we look at OPENCLAW, OPENAI AND THE FUTURE as the project's founder joins the Borg, even though META AND OTHER TECH FIRMS PUT RESTRICTIONS ON USE OF OPENCLAW because it's basically a security hole that can click your mouse for you. Peak stupidity has arrived with RFK JR'S NEW CHATBOT giving rectal dietary advice, while AI COMPANIES BOUGHT OUT ALL OF WESTERN DIGITAL'S HARD DRIVES through 2026, meaning you can't have storage because the bots need it more. Even VALVE ADMITS STEAM DECK AVAILABILITY IS AFFECTED by this memory hoarding. We also touch on STEVE BANNON SUED OVER MAGA CRYPTO SCHEME, LOS ANGELES COUNTY FILES LAWSUIT AGAINST ROBLOX for being a safety nightmare, and the fact that TESLA ROBOTAXIS REPORTEDLY CRASHING at four times the human rate. TESLA DODGES 30-DAY SUSPENSION by simply killing the word "Autopilot," while NEW YORK HITS THE BRAKES ON ROBOTAXI EXPANSION to keep the chaos at bay. Finally, POLYMARKET WITHDRAWS EXPLOSIVE ARTEMIS BETTING MARKET because betting on dead astronauts is too much even for them, leading the ETHEREUM CREATOR STARTING TO THINK THIS WHOLE PREDICTION MARKET THING MIGHT BE GAMBLING. As NEVADA SUES KALSHI and Jack Dorsey oversees INSIDE THE ROLLING LAYOFFS AT JACK DORSEY'S BLOCK—using AI to summarize the misery of his employees—just remember: YOU'LL BE SORRY WHEN YOU HEAR WHAT JUSTIN BIEBER'S $1.3 MILLION BORED APE IS WORTH NOW. Hint: it's twelve grand.In this week's MEDIA CANDY, we've got FREE BERT, KAT WILLIAMS: THE LAST REPORT, and the eternal return of SHREK. We're checking out MARK ROBER on Netflix, the return of MONARCH: LEGACY OF MONSTERS, and the trailer for GOOD LUCK, HAVE FUN, DON'T DIE. If you need a soundtrack for the apocalypse, Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq has you covered with STOP USING GENERATIVE A.I and the Gen-X anthem I'VE NO MORE F*S TO GIVE!.Moving to APPS & DOODADS, OBSIDIAN TO NOTES is a $14 well spent, unlike CURSOR and VISUAL STUDIO CODE which are getting bogged down by slow models. APPLE'S AI PENDANT sounds like a watered-down Humane pin that relies on your phone to think, and APPLE PODCASTS AND VIDEO remains a pipe dream because bandwidth costs money. We've reached the point where THERE'S A GRIM NEW EXPRESSION: “AI;DR” for things not worth reading, and THERE'S A NEW TERM FOR WORKERS FREAKING OUT over being replaced—AIRD, or AI Replacement Dysfunction—which is basically the low-grade panic of being made obsolete by a machine that thinks bananas go in your bum.AT THE LIBRARY, we're thumbing through CLEAVE THE SPARROW, THE REGICIDE REPORT by Charles Stross, and Robin Ince being NORMALLY WEIRD AND WEIRDLY NORMAL.Then we descend into THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, where the Muppets are taking over with THE MUPPET SHOW and MUPPETS NOW. We catch the latest on THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU and TOY STORY 5, while tracking the PENTAGON PIZZA INDEX to see if war is breaking out. For the kids, we look at a 3D PRINTER / ENTRY LEVEL FOR KIDS like the Bambu Lab A1, and for the nerds, A STAR WARS-CENTRIC RSS FEED and a NEAT IDEA FOR AN RSS READER, “CURRENT,” which lets news drift away like water under a bridge. We wrap it all up with some HORROR IN UNDER TWO MINUTES and IMPECCABLE COVERS OF 80S SYNTH MUSIC, because at least the 80s had better soundtracks than this AI-generated nightmare.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.

President Donald Trump has ordered a second aircraft carrier, the U.S.S. Gerald R. Ford, to the Middle East, escalating pressure on Iran over its nuclear program. Meanwhile, U.S. and Iranian diplomats have met in Geneva for another round of high-stakes negotiations. Is this strategic leverage—or a dangerous gamble?In this episode of the Blessors of Israel Podcast, Dr. Matthew Dodd and Pastor Rich Jones analyze the latest developments, the risks of military escalation, and what these events could signal prophetically for Israel and the Middle East.Visit the Blessors of Israel Website: https://www.blessors.org/ Thank you for supporting Blessors of Israel.

Relooted launched. Apparently. That's right, another game for "the modern audience" launched to great applause amongst the 160 people who played it. Whereas last week Highguard peaked at almost 100,000 players before catering from the stratosphere, it seems this game never even left the ground. Will game studios ever learn, or are we stuck playing Asian games forever?

We kick things off in FOLLOW UP with the ongoing "nuclear war" between Automattic and WP Engine, where discovery has revealed Matt Mullenweg's alleged hit list of competitors and a desperate attempt to bully payment processors—because nothing says "open source" like an eight-percent royalty shakedown. Meanwhile, the Harvard Business Review confirmed what we already knew: AI isn't reducing our work; it's just compressing it until we're all working through lunch and burning out faster while Polymarket turns our collective brain rot into a literal "attention market" where you can bet on Elon's mindshare.Transitioning to IN THE NEWS, Elon has officially pivoted SpaceX from Mars to the Moon, presumably because building a "self-growing lunar city" is easier than admitting the Red Planet is hard, though his xAI all-hands rant about "ancient alien catapults" suggests he's been staring at the sun too long. Between X allegedly taking blue-check lunch money from sanctioned Iranian leaders, Meta facing trials for creating "predator-friendly hunting grounds," and Russia finally pulling the plug on WhatsApp, the internet is looking more like a digital dumpster fire than ever. Add in Discord leaking 70,000 government IDs, OpenAI shoving ads into ChatGPT while safety researchers flee the building like it's on fire, and a "cognitive debt" crisis eroding our ability to think, and you've got a recipe for a tech-induced psychosis that even crypto-funded human trafficking can't outpace.In MEDIA CANDY, we're wondering about the soft-core porn intro in the latest Star Trek: Starfleet Academy while Apple buys the total rights to Severance for seventy million dollars—because in-house production is the only way to keep those ballooning budgets under control. Super Bowl trailer season gave us a glimpse of The Mandalorian and Grogu and a Project Hail Mary teaser, while Babylon 5 has finally landed on YouTube for free, proving that even 90s serialized sci-fi eventually finds its way to the clearance bin.Over in APPS & DOODADS, Meta Quest is nagging us for our birthdays like a needy relative, while Roblox had to scrub a mass-shooting simulator—because "AI plus human safety teams" is apparently just code for "we missed it until it hit the forums." Ring's Super Bowl ad for "Search Party" accidentally terrified everyone by revealing a mass surveillance network for pets that's a slippery slope toward a police state, and Waymo is now paying DoorDashers ten bucks just to walk over and close the car doors that autonomous tech still can't figure out.Wrapping up with THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, we dive into the Mandalorian Hasbro reveal where Sigourney Weaver's action figure comes with no accessories because her existence is enough of a flex. We explore the grim reality of "RentAHuman," where humans are paid pittance to pretend AI agents are actually doing work, and look at "Trash Talk Audio," which sells a $125 microphone made out of a literal old telephone for that authentic Gen-X "get off the line, I'm expecting a call" aesthetic. From Marcia Lucas finally venting about the prequels and a rare book catalog specifically for our aging generation, we're reminded that while the future is a chaotic mess of "GeoSpy" AI and corporate reshuffling at Disney, at least we still have our cynical memories and some free versions of Roller Coaster Tycoon to keep us from losing it completely.Sponsors:CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

Siedząc na zgliszczach świata, człowiek w bunkrze trzymał w ręku dysk twardy i zastanawiał się do czego mógł on służyć ludziom, którzy żyli przed nim. Ostatecznie jednak rzucił go w kąt na stertę starych płyt winylowych i sięgnął po książkę o pewnym rycerzu i jego giermku.

In this episode of Luke21, Steve Wood examines Revelation 16 and the pouring out of the seven bowls of God's wrath, culminating in the final battle of Armageddon. Scripture describes global, catastrophic events—unmatched earthquakes, the collapse of cities and mountains, and the gathering of the nations for war—pointing far beyond a first-century fulfillment. This teaching connects Revelation 16, 19, and 20 with Ezekiel 38–39, showing they describe one climactic battle at the end of the age, coinciding with the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. Steve Wood also explains how demonic deception stirs nations toward war and why Armageddon is ultimately a battle for the Kingship of Christ. A clear, Scripture-based look at Armageddon, Gog and Magog, and the return of Christ from a Catholic perspective. For more resources, visit us online at www.BibleforCatholics.com.
Recent news reports show that Europe is preparing for greater military independence from the United States, raising the possibility of a significant shift in NATO’s structure. Bible prophecy in Ezekiel 38 and Revelation 17 describes a latter-day European confederacy aligned with a northern power identified with Russia, while Britain and the United States stand apart. These geopolitical developments represent steps toward the prophetic arrangement Scripture outlines.

In this week's FOLLOW UP, Bitcoin is down 15%, miners are unplugging rigs because paying eighty-seven grand to mine a sixty-grand coin finally failed the vibes check, and Grok is still digitally undressing men—suggesting Musk's “safeguards” remain mostly theoretical, which didn't help when X offices got raided in France. Spain wants to ban social media for kids under 16, Egypt is blocking Roblox outright, and governments everywhere are flailing at the algorithmic abyss.IN THE NEWS, Elon Musk is rolling xAI into SpaceX to birth a $1.25 trillion megacorp that wants to power AI from orbit with a million satellites, because space junk apparently wasn't annoying enough. Amazon admits a “high volume” of CSAM showed up in its AI training data and blames third parties, Waymo bags a massive $16 billion to insist robotaxis are working, Pinterest reportedly fires staff who built a layoff-tracking tool, and Sam Altman gets extremely cranky about Claude's Super Bowl ads hitting a little too close to home.For MEDIA CANDY, we've got Shrinking, the Grammys, Star Trek: Starfleet Academy's questionable holographic future, Neil Young gifting his catalog to Greenland while snubbing Amazon, plus Is It Cake? Valentines and The Rip.In APPS & DOODADS, we test Sennheiser earbuds, mess with Topaz Video, skip a deeply cursed Python script that checks LinkedIn for Epstein connections, and note that autonomous cars and drones will happily obey prompt injection via road signs—defeated by a Sharpie.IN THE LIBRARY, there's The Regicide Report, a brutal study finding early dementia signals in Terry Pratchett's novels, Neil Gaiman denying allegations while announcing a new book, and THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, vibing with The Muppet Show as Disney names a new CEO. We round it out with RentAHuman.ai dread relief via paper airplane databases, free Roller Coaster Tycoon, and Sir Ian McKellen on Colbert—still classy in the digital wasteland.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.

In this episode of Linux Out Loud, Matt takes squad leader role while Wendy and Nate rejoin the party for a high‑FPS catch‑up on life, Linux, and loud gaming sessions. They swap updates on Wendy's robotics teams heading deeper into competition season, Nate's battle with basement water and building a proper home lab spawn point, and Matt's quest to keep a local‑only media server running on modest hardware. From organizing racks and labeling gear to wrestling with Starlink latency and debating cloud gaming versus real ownership, the crew dives into how their real‑world chaos shapes the way they run Linux, host services, and play games. If you like robots, home labs, and arguing about whether you really own your digital library, this one's for you.

We kick off FOLLOW UP by checking in on Elon Musk's personal dumpster fire, where the EU is investigating Grok for deepfake slop while Tesla's “unsupervised” robotaxis turned out to be supervised by literal chase cars — shocker. At least some of you are getting Siri settlement crumbs in your bank accounts, though you could probably double it betting against Musk's worthless promises on Polymarket.Transitioning to IN THE NEWS, Tesla is killing off the Model S and X to build robots while sales crater, proving that mixing hard-right politics with EV sales is a brilliant move for the balance sheet. Meanwhile, the corporate bloodbath continues with massive layoffs at Ubisoft, Vimeo (courtesy of the Bending Spoons buzzsaw), and Amazon, because “removing bureaucracy” is apparently HR-speak for 16,000 families losing their livelihoods. If that's not enough, Google is settling yet another privacy suit for $135 million, the EU is threatening to weaponize its tech sovereignty against the US, and the Trump administration wants Gemini to write federal regulations—because if there's one thing we want drafting airline safety rules, it's a hallucinating chatbot.Still IN THE NEWS, Waymo is under federal investigation for passing school buses and hitting children, while South Korea's new AI laws manage to please absolutely no one. Record labels are suing Anna's Archive for a cool $13 trillion—roughly three times the GDP of India—and the Winklevoss twins have finally admitted that NFTs are dead by shuttering Nifty Gateway.We pivot to MEDIA CANDY, where the Patriots and Seahawks are heading to Super Bowl 60, and the Winter Olympics are descending on Milan. We're doing the math on the Starfleet Academy timeline, celebrating the return of Ted Lasso and Shrinking, and trying to decide if Henry Cavill is the second coming of Timothy Dalton in the Highlander reboot. Plus, Jessica Jones is back in the Daredevil: Born Again trailer, and Colin Farrell's Sugar is returning to explain that wild noir twist we all totally saw coming.In APPS & DOODADS, the TikTok Armageddon is upon us as the new US owners break the app and drive everyone to UpScrolled, while Native Instruments enters insolvency, leaving our music-making dreams in restructuring limbo. Apple is dropping AirTag 2 with precision finding for your watch, which is great for finding the keys you lost while doom-scrolling.We wrap up with THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, featuring the new Muppets trailer and Steve Whitmire's deep thoughts on the state of the felt, plus a look at the artisans in Disneyland Handcrafted. Finally, Looney Tunes finds a new home on Turner Classic Movies, proving that the classics never die—they just move to a cable channel your parents actually watch. Dave finally learns about the Insta360 camera, a countertop dishwasher but no Animal Crackers, and a guide to gas masks and googles... for no particular reason.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.

Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope-Episode 77 Gary analyzes a clip from a teacher on Facebook claiming that Gog and Magog from Ezekiel 38-39 will soon be upon us. Pointing out first that the chronology of what this person is saying is all wrong, Gary continues to show how the Bible teaches that Gog and Magog is not a future event at all, but was fulfilled long ago.

The Suffering Warrior: Unveiling Judah's Mashiyach ben Yosef and the Messianic Mystery Overview In this post, Rod explores Judah's conception of Mashiyach ben Yosef (Messiah son of Joseph), tracing its development through biblical, Rabbinic, and apocalyptic literature, and connecting it to Messianic faith in Yeshua. The study highlights the "suffering warrior" motif, the precursor role to Mashiyach ben David, and the eschatological implications for Israel and the world. Key Themes & Scriptural Foundations Mashiyach ben Yosef as Precursor: Mashiyach ben Yosef is depicted as a leader who precedes Mashiyach ben David, preparing Israel through military, political, and spiritual means (repentance and Torah observance). This role is likened to John the Immerser as a type of precursor. Two-Stage Eschatology: Rabbinic tradition envisions two Messiahs—ben Yosef (the suffering, martyred leader) and ben David (the glorious, reigning king). The first stage is marked by suffering and conflict, the second by peace and restoration. Scriptural Roots: Genesis 49:22–26: Joseph's blessing as a "fruitful bough" and a suffering deliverer, foreshadowing the Messiah's role. Isaiah 11:13: Prophecy of Ephraim and Judah's reconciliation, interpreted as the work of two Messiahs. Zechariah 12:10: The pierced one, mourned by Israel, linked to Mashiyach ben Yosefciteturn4search1L20, L29-30. Obadiah 1:18, 21: Two "saviors" leading Israel, interpreted as ben Yosef and ben David. Rabbinic and Apocalyptic References Talmudic Sources: Sukkah 52a–b: Explicit references to Mashiyach ben Yosef, his death in the war of Gog and Magog, and the mourning that follows. Also mentions four eschatological figures: Mashiyach ben David, Mashiyach ben Yosef, Elijah, and the righteous High Priest (https://www.sefaria.org/Sukkah.52b.16?lang=bi&with=all&lang2=en)citeturn4search1L25, L29-31. Genesis Rabbah 75:6, 99:2: Describes the "War Messiah" from Joseph's lineage, involved in Temple restoration. Pesikta de-Rav Kahana 5:9 and Pesikta Rabbati 15.14/16: Discuss the "Anointed One for War" and the four messianic figures. Songs of Rabbah: Mentions Elijah, King Messiah, Melchizedek, and the Anointed for War (https://books.google.com/books?id=3YH99skQxGIC&q=Song+of+Songs+Rabbah+messiah+Elijah+war&pg=PA138). Sefer Zerubbabel: 7th-century apocalyptic text introducing Nehemiah ben Hushiel (Mashiyach ben Yosef) and Menahem ben Ammiel (Mashiyach ben David), outlining the sequence of redemption, warfare, death, resurrection, and the Messianic Age (https://pages.charlotte.edu/john-reeves/research-projects/trajectories-in-near-eastern-apocalyptic/sefer-zerubbabel). Dead Sea Scrolls: 4Q175 ("The Testimonia") and 4Q372 ("The Joseph Apocryphon"): Present a suffering, priestly, and warrior leader matching the ben Yosef persona. 1QS (Community Rule): Describes two Messiahs—of Aaron (priestly) and of Israel (kingly/warrior), with the latter subordinate to the former. Liturgical and Kabbalistic References: Amidah (Shemoneh Esrei): Kabbalists see the prayer for David's throne as a plea for Mashiyach ben Yosef's protection (https://www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/867674/jewish/Translation.htm). Kol HaTor: "Yosef is still alive" prayer for Mashiyach ben Yosef's mercy (https://vilnagaon.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/KOL_HATOR.pdf). Messianic Fulfillment and Insights Typology and Yeshua: Rod argues that Yeshua fulfills the typology of Mashiyach ben Yosef—suffering, atoning, gathering the lost sheep, and preparing the way for the Messianic Age. Scriptural parallels include Isaiah 53, Luke 4, Mark 13, Revelation 19, Zechariah 14, Ezekiel 34, and others. Conditional Redemption: Some Rabbinic sources suggest that the suffering and death of Mashiyach ben Yosef are conditional upon Israel's spiritual state. Practical Insights for Believers: Suffering: True discipleship involves suffering and persecution, echoing the path of Mashiyach ben Yosef and Yeshua (Matthew 24:9, John 15:20). Atonement: The suffering of Mashiyach ben Yosef is linked to atonement for Israel's sins, paralleling Yeshua's redemptive work (Ephesians 2:8, Matthew 5:3, 5). Redemption: The manuscript emphasizes the final redemption of Israel, rooted in biblical prophecy (Romans 11, Ezekiel 36–37, Zechariah 12–14, Isaiah 11, Jeremiah 31). Warfare: Both spiritual and physical warfare are central, with believers called to "put on the whole armor of God" (Ephesians 6). Call to Action Intercession for Judah: The manuscript urges Messianic believers to pray for and love the Jewish people, recognizing the "partial blindness" until the fullness of the Gentiles comes in (Romans 11:25). Invitation to Discipleship: The closing invites readers to enter into covenant relationship with Yehovah through Yeshua Messiah (2 Corinthians 6:2).

Ep 730: Ethical Broads PRIVATEWe kick off FOLLOW UP with California's AG sending a cease-and-desist to xAI over Grok generating creepy deepfakes of minors, while regulators finally notice Elon Musk's xAI datacenter illegally running methane turbines in Memphis. The FTC is also appealing its loss in the Meta monopoly case, because apparently breaking up Zuckerberg's data empire is still the hill they want to die on.IN THE NEWS, Washington joins the age-verification-for-porn parade, the UK considers an Australia-style social media ban for kids under 16, and governments everywhere continue demanding your ID before you're allowed to enjoy the internet. OpenAI rolls out age prediction for ChatGPT accounts ahead of a rumored adult mode—though hey, at least you can now group tabs in ChatGPT's Atlas browser. Anthropic rewrites Claude's “constitution” to make it more vibes-based, Nevada moves to block Polymarket because gambling is only legal when the house owns the house, and YouTube promises even more AI features in 2026. Elsewhere, a Swiss suicide pod gets an AI “mental fitness” upgrade, Microsoft's CEO begs AI developers to do something useful before the grid collapses, Musk hunts for a $134 billion payday from OpenAI and Microsoft, and makes yet more Davos predictions about robotaxis and aliens that are absolutely happening this year. On the bright side, A-list creatives push back on AI and Comic-Con bans AI art, buying humans a little more time.MEDIA CANDY finds us slogging through Wish, The Pitt, and the “Mel's Diner in Space” look of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. We confirm 20-year-old CGI wargs still look terrible, get cautiously excited for 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, and note that Fallout Season 2's weekly drops may not be working for a binge-rotted audience.In APPS & DOODADS, X launches Bluesky-style starter packs—presumably to help you find more Nazis—while ICE becomes one of the most-blocked accounts on Bluesky. Threads edges out X in daily mobile users, proving the “federated future” is just another Zuck app. And yes, we think we know what the Apple AI pin is—and definitely what it isn't.AT THE LIBRARY, we check out The Elements, Jet Tila's 101 Thai Dishes You Need to Cook Before You Die, Half Baked Harvest: Quick & Cozy, and Southern Living's A Southern Gentleman's Kitchen. Scott reports back from a Jim Butcher talk, where we learn Harry Dresden sounds suspiciously like Han Solo.We close with THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, who is juggling five podcasts while reading Going to the Top: The Story of Videopolis, plus teasers for Star Wars: Maul – Shadow Lord and a baffling Masters of the Universe trailer, a rant on what “remastered” even means anymore, a dishwasher follow-up, and the grim news that a lot of snow is coming.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.SquareSpace - go to squarespace.com/GRUMPY for a free trial.

We kick things off with the existential dread of FOLLOW UP and the absolute joy of jury duty. While xAI's Grok is busy getting banned in Malaysia and Indonesia for its CSAM-generating "features," the Senate is unanimously passing the DEFIANCE Act to give us some legal teeth against the deepfake machine. Meta is busy nuking 550,000 Australian accounts to appease regulators, while Roblox's age verification is so broken that a drawing of stubble or a photo of Kurt Cobain can get you into the adult lounge. Moving IN THE NEWS, Meta is trading its $70 billion Metaverse graveyard for a Reality Labs layoff and a pivot to AI hardware, fueled by an "AI infrastructure" buildout that's hiring former Trump advisors. Bandcamp is heroically banning AI "slop," Matthew McConaughey is trademarking his own face to fend off the bots, and ICE's AI hiring tool is such a disaster it's accidentally fast-tracking mall security as "officers." Between self-help gurus charging $99 for chatbot "advice," GM finally settling its driver-spying suit with the FTC, and NASA prepping for a February moon shot while China plans to launch 200,000 satellites into our already crowded orbit, the future looks exactly as messy as we expected.For MEDIA CANDY, we've got Lord of the Rings marathons, the diner-bridge of Starfleet Academy, and the usual joy of streaming price hikes hitting our "Premium" plans. We're tracking the 2025 "In Memoriam" and Gabriel Pagan's exhaustive movie list before sliding into APPS & DOODADS. Jony Ive and Sam Altman are reportedly building an hearing aide called "Sweetpea" to kill your AirPods, Siri is officially Google Gemini's new puppet, and Apple is finally bundling its creative apps into a "Creator Studio" subscription trap. Tesla is making Full Self-Driving a subscription-only Valentine's gift (good luck with that), Ring is rebranding surveillance as a "fire-watching" assistant, and a Chinese app called "Are You Dead?" is the new must-have for the lonely. To cap it off, the internet proved its maturity by using "Words.zip"—an infinite word-search grid—to draw a giant phallus, because of course they did.AT THE LIBRARY features the Anthony Bourdain Reader, the return of Bob in the new Laundry Files book, and Jimmy Carr's guide to happiness, which is apparently cheaper than therapy. Then we descend into THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, where the dishwasher-installing, ham-radio-lunching Dave Bittner reveals Disney World has job openings for those of us who spent high school in the AV club. Lucasfilm is finally entering a new era as Kathleen Kennedy steps down, just as Galaxy's Edge admits the original trilogy exists, and we wrap it all up with lock-picking kits and the terrifying realization that Seymour from H.R. Pufnstuf is the ultimate Gen-X fursona.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.Gusto - Try Gusto today at gusto.com/grumpy, and get three months free when you run your first payroll.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Welcome back to the digital wasteland, fellow survivors. We kick things off in the FOLLOW UP by marking a year since the LA Fires—hello, PTSD—alongside a 4th Strokiversary and three years of sobriety, all while wondering why America is currently obsessed with shooting its own civilians in the face.In the IN THE NEWS segment, Wired is finally teaching us how to protest safely in the age of surveillance, and the EFF is cheering on the hackers fighting ICE's Nazi-adjacent tracking tactics. Meanwhile, Meta is harvesting your AI chats for targeted ads, Disney is paying $10 million for spying on kids, and Grok has spent the holidays generating nonconsensual child abuse material—a problem Elon Musk won't have to legally reckon with until the Take It Down Act hits in May. Instagram's Adam Mosseri has basically surrendered to the AI "slop", suggesting we fingerprint "real" media because the fake stuff has already won the war.As we continue the descent, OpenAI is launching a ChatGPT Health portal despite their "loser energy" and compute limits, while Character.AI and Google are quietly settling lawsuits for bots that encouraged teen suicide. Polymarket gamblers are learning that "decentralized" juries will fist you over the definition of an "invasion" just as fast as a bank. Uber showed off a new Lucid-based robotaxi, but we're pumping the brakes on the safety hype given that autonomous vehicles are five times more likely to crash at dusk. To wrap up the news, Tim Cook took home $74 million last year, which is a lot of "systematic philanthropy" he could be doing right now instead of just writing checks to his own ego.In MEDIA CANDY, we're suffering through the Stranger Things wrap-up and a John McTiernan holiday marathon, though the real highlight is MTV Rewind's tribute to music videos. We've got Traitors, The Pitt, and even a John Candy doc on the list, while APPS & DOODADS brings us the DJI Osmo 8, Victrola's turntable-vibrating speakers. At least California's DROP tool lets you purge your data from 500 brokers at once.Finally, we go to THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE to hear Dave Bittner rant about holiday tech support, health insurance gouging, and Dave Filoni taking the Star Wars reins. We close out with a look at ILM's 50th, the deepfake porn cesspool formerly known as Twitter, and a birthday toast to the Starman himself, David Bowie.Sponsors:CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

Welcome back to another hour of digital cynicism. We kick things off with a FOLLOW UP on Amazon's Fallout recaps, which were apparently so hallucination-heavy they made the actual wasteland look organized; naturally, they've been nuked along with the "Video Recaps" feature. In a massive dose of IN THE NEWS, Tesla is finally getting a legal side-eye in California for its deceptive "Autopilot" branding, while TikTok is performing a corporate shell game by selling a 45% stake to Oracle and friends to keep the feds happy. Reddit is fighting Australia's under-16 ban like it's a constitutional crisis, Louisiana's age-verification law just got benched by a judge, and Merriam-Webster officially crowned "slop" as the Word of the Year—which is fitting, given that OpenAI is selectively hiding chat logs from murder-suicides while their Chief Scientist warns that recursive AI self-improvement might end the human experiment by 2030. If the "intelligence explosion" doesn't get us, the CRASH Clock says we've got roughly 2.8 days before Elon's satellite swarm turns low-earth orbit into a permanent scrapyard.In our MEDIA CANDY segment, we mourn the transition year of Star Trek, which was mostly a series of unmitigated disasters and corporate retreats, though the Oscars moving to YouTube in 2029 means we can finally ignore them in 4K. Meta is testing a "pay-to-share-links" feature because they clearly haven't alienated creators enough, and a new study suggests Amazon's "dynamic pricing" is basically just a high-tech way to gouge public school districts for pencils. Moving to APPS & DOODADS, iOS 26.2 is here with a "Liquid Glass" slider—groundbreaking stuff, really—while Microsoft's Copilot+ push is effectively killing the laptop market by making 16GB of RAM a luxury item only a data center could love. Meanwhile, iRobot has officially sucked its last bit of dust into a Chapter 11 filing, proving that even a twenty-year head start can't save you from a 46 percent tariff and better Chinese competition.AT THE LIBRARY, we find out that librarians are ready to quit because people keep demanding books that only exist in a ChatGPT hallucination, proving once again that the "Information Age" was a lie. We descend into THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE with the tireless Dave Bittner to discuss why modern movies feel like plastic, the bizarre paradox of James Cameron's Avatar dominance, and a bittersweet farewell to Rob Reiner. We wrap it up with the return of The Muppets, a look at plug-in solar panels for the budget-conscious prepper, and the Sedaris siblings proving that even grief can be a podcast topic. It's all the tech "progress" you never asked for, delivered with the appropriate amount of Gen-X side-eye.Show notes at https://gog.show/727Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/hHnGD4lIFzASponsors:MasterClass - Get up to 50% off at MASTERCLASS.com/GRUMPYOLDGEEKSPrivate Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.
