This is not the crossover we asked for, but the crossover we need. -
It looks like Ricciardo is in a precarious position and Lawson being the potential driver taking his seat at VCARB.It looks like Ricciardo is in a precarious position and Lawson being the potential driver taking his seat at VCARB.

Uglies (2024)Uglies (2024)
The 2010s called and they’d like their movie back. This movie just feels like a bad relic from the past. Without movies like Uglies, there would be no foil for much better films.
Everything is so bland. The acting is stilted, the CGI is pretty low rent. the action is boring and the world building lacking.
The filmmakers don’t see the irony of casting beautiful actors to portray ugly people whos only desire is to get surgery to be pretty.
I’m the future they have the Captain America Super Soldier program too. They are creating the most beautiful dumb soldiers.
Joey King can’t play teens anymore.
Oh dear goodness, the ending leaves this open for a full franchise of movies.
Rated 1 out of 10.
Streamed on Netflix.

Not very cool #LinkedIn for turning on the ability to consume user data for generative AI training by default and making it opt-out. It’s almost like the product manager knew that if it was opt-in no one would turn it on.Not very cool #LinkedIn for turning on the ability to consume user data for generative AI training by default and making it opt-out.

More shame for labeling the feature as “Data for Generative AI Improvement” because with the vast piles of cringe posts on LinkedIn, that content will only make the gen AI even worse.
To opt out of this:

macOS Sequoia's Firewall is all messed up.macOS Sequoia's Firewall is all messed up. If you're having issues with Safari, Firefox or Terminal accessing the internet, it's because the Firewall is flipping out and blocking them. I went and changed the access and after a while it goes back to blocking. Very annoying. For now, since I'm using my MBP at home, I have the firewall turned off.

#AzerbaijanGP #F1 #Formul1- So happy for Piastri! A hell of a pass and some consistently great driving! Also almost losing his balance while getting out of the car to celebrate was hilarious.
- This was one exciting and thrilling race!
- The crash between Checo and Sainz in the penultimate lap was super heartbreaking. Checo was doing so well for all of the race and I had been cheering him on all weekend.
- What's going on with Max? The car seems to be good as shown by how well Checo was doing throughout this race before the crash.
- McLaren taking the Constructors is pretty awesome.

This afternoon's movie is Need for Speed (2014). Not the greatest script or plot, but still a fun movie to (re)watch because of the cars and well shot racing scenes. -

Also, there's a laundry list of actors in this one: Aaron Paul, Dominic Cooper, Imogen Poots, Kid Audi, Rami Malek (before he decided to stop making fun movies), Dakota Johnson and Michael Keaton.
It also helps that the beautiful score by Nathan Furst is way more than this film deserves.
