I just got a notice from Samsung that they have new a new Privacey policy. When I get to the policy page it is blank except for a "Accept new policy" and text saying I must accept the policy to see it. I clicked the button - then that screen closed. What?? no policy? BTW - this was not sent as a normal text and does not show up in messages.

A new video posted on X and TikTok shows firefighters attempting to break the Cybertruck’s windows. However, despite wielding heavy axes, it takes three blows to see the first crack and over 12 blows to break the window completely.

These protest signs of Doug Ford's authoritarian #Bill212 just keep getting better and better.

It's dated to be from around 2400 BCE. The article doesn't clarify if it's a true alphabet or an abjad, but either way it's interesting.

I just saw a video about BC/AD as opposed to BCE/CE and the invention of the Gregorian calendar and I wondered what year it would be if we counted the years like the Romans did.

Yuki Tsunoda said his target is set on Pierre Gasly during the Las Vegas GP, hoping to "attack Pierre" for a possible top-five finish.

Sometimes I forget this happened, but it was so long ago, I copied this from a comment I made, but edited it a bit more here...

2003 - 2004?

Middle school or early high school (I don't understand well your USA system), one girl asked me to be her bf (maybe as a joke idk, her 2 friends were with her and basically told her to speak to me), i literally did a 180 and said bye, just wasn't into those things yet, only cared about watching Digimon and stuff. Typical nerd with thick glasses.

I always considered her physically unattractive but she was mostly a sweet heart with everyone, soft spoken, her mom was a religion teacher at our school.

Anyways, next year, hormones were doing its job I guess, she looked the same ugly duckling to me, but she also... I dunno, like something was calling me towards her. Funnily enough we got closer and for a short while became friends (since we got paired to do homework and stuff together a couple of times at school) and I though many years later, even to this day "man, I should've said yes, even if it was a prank or a short thing".

She became the girlfriend of the only "jock" (for you Americans) of the class about 3 months after my "rejection".

And that pretty much is my only type of relationship with the other sex. Never felt in love or got into a relationship. Even if the whole thing was a cruel prank to make fun of me, that would've been better than not experiencing anything and still dateless to this day. Especially since as a kid you don't need money, dress well, speak well or a car to really start dating (especially in a poor country like mine), meanwhile as an adult in mid 30s, in Europe is basically mandatory plus having great social skills.

Williams has announced that Franco Colapinto has been cleared to drive in the F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix following his 50G impact with the barrier in qualifying.
