Ok. Also it’s more complicated than just Larry Ellison, which is why I said to do an Internet search/google it. Also if I said “search” the reader probably would have interpreted it as “do a search around here (Lemmy). But whatever, let’s concentrate on being pedantic rather than the message.

~~Google~~ Do an Internet search for who owns cbs/paramount now. Then ~~google~~ do an Internet search for Bari Weiss, current head of cbs news. They want to own CNN next as part of the current WBD sale.

Please consider finding sources for stories like this other than CBS news. They don’t deserve your clicks/eyeballs/whatever.

National standards might change, but I’m betting California and some other states will still hold car manufacturers to a higher standard.

 

She certainly made a special effort to come down to Texas during the primary to make sure his more liberal competitor didn’t win.

Maybe. But who else has the time to moderate? It’s not like they pay people to do this.

These CEOs seem really slow on the uptake. Gonna put all your chips into the AI business just as the bubble is about to burst.

Seems less stinky and less gross than cigarettes and loose tobacco. Also less electronic waste than disposable vaping. Less lung cancer probably, but not sure about oral cancer.

Today I learned the metric equivalent of horsepower is, horsepower. You’d think someone would have come up with a better name.

I know that some people eat celery with hummus. Or put pimento cheese or peanut butter on it. Are there any other foods that you think go well with celery? I’ve got some celery in my fridge that I’m trying to eat up.

 

Just finished reading an article about how raw alfalfa sprouts easily spread e-coli, but the problem could be solved by irradiation. So why don’t we?

After all, the US is the land of GMO, pesticides, washed eggs, chlorinated chicken, and pasteurized dairy. How could irradiated produce be any worse?

 

Why is Cornyn running these ridiculous border security ads on YouTube? Midterm elections aren’t until November 2026.

 

Interesting article about all the crappy energy legislation being pushed and passed in Texas.

 

Between AI, voice cloning, and modern CGI I’m surprised we haven’t gotten a real computer-generated talk show host.

 

I keep hearing I should get a flu shot to help prevent bird flu — but I thought flu shots only prevented illness from the particular strains the shot was designed for. Does getting a traditional flu shot do anything to prevent bird flu transmission?
