  14. I love collecting vinyl. It’s also silly how this article comes out annually for the past decade.
  15. Vinyl records have once again outdone CDs in sales, marking the second consecutive year for this trend. Last year, 43 million vinyl records were sold, which is 6 million more than CD sales. This growth in vinyl sales has been consistent for 17 years, with vinyl also generating significantly higher revenue—$1.4 billion compared to CDs' $537 million. Despite the rise of streaming services, which account for 84% of music revenue, physical media remains resilient, holding an 11% share of sales. The RIAA notes this endurance even amidst the rise of generative AI, which poses new challenges for the music industry. Vinyl's popularity could be attributed to the decline in CD players in cars and computers, as well as the tactile and visual appeal of vinyl collections.

  18. Instagram has recently updated its recommendation algorithm for political content. During the U.S. election season, the platform will not proactively recommend political posts to users unless they follow the accounts. This change aims to limit the spread of political content and could affect users' exposure to diverse political views, which is crucial for community organizing and staying informed. Adjusting Your Content Preferences For those who wish to continue seeing political content, Instagram provides an option to adjust settings: Navigate to your profile and access the 'Settings and activity' page. Under 'What you see,' select 'Content preferences' and then 'Political content.' Choose to either see political content from non-followed accounts or keep it limited. Meta's History with Political Content Meta, Instagram's parent company, has faced controversies over political content, including the Cambridge Analytica scandal and issues related to the January 6 Capitol event. The new policy could have significant implications for content creators and the platform's role in political discourse. Remember, if you change your preferences on Instagram, it will also apply to Threads, an integrated app within the platform.
  19. TL;DR: The NFL has introduced a new kickoff rule to reduce high-speed collisions and injuries, inspired by the XFL. The rule positions players closer, changes the kickoff point, and alters the touchback location, aiming to make the game safer and more thrilling. NFL Introduces Low-Impact Kickoff Rule In a landmark decision, the NFL has implemented a new kickoff rule aimed at enhancing player safety and increasing the excitement of returns. This innovative approach, inspired by the XFL, is set to transform the opening play of every game. Revolutionizing the Kickoff The new rule positions players from both teams just five yards apart, eliminating the high-speed collisions that have historically led to injuries. Only the kicker and returners will be separate from this formation. The kickoff team will line up on the opposing team's 40-yard line, while the receiving team's blockers will position themselves on their own 35-yard line. Strategic Placement and Movement Kickoffs will now originate from the kicker's 35-yard line, with the ball needing to land between the 20-yard line and the goal line. If the ball goes out of bounds or falls short, the receiving team will start at the 40-yard line. For touchbacks, the ball will be placed at the 30-yard line. Players are restricted from moving until the ball is caught or touches the ground. Trial Period and Future Outlook This rule change is currently set for a one-year trial, after which it may be re-evaluated. The NFL anticipates a reduction in injuries and an increase in returns, mirroring the positive outcomes observed during the XFL's implementation of a similar rule. The kickoff's new look is a step towards a safer and more dynamic NFL experience.

    Having too many forums was a mistake I made previously. I still have quite a lot - but, before I trimmed it, my board's layout was a complete mess 😛 . Another mistake I made was trying to please everybody - which is just impossible!
  21. As much as this technology worries me, and as much as I wouldn't be willing to touch it until it's proven itself... I can't help but be impressed by how much it's helped this patient 😄 ! I hope it continues to deliver positive results for him - and for others 🙂 .
  22. Any of those bigwig companies of tech think they can do what they want when they want to people.
  23. Everybody is entitled to the choices they make in life. Didn't Stephen Hawking have something similar? That's how he was able to communicate his brilliant mind in a body that wouldn't cooperate.
  24. I'm an ex-Christian & studied the bible several times. Christians are worried about the Mark of the Beast. However, I think for most of them it's more a fairytale. They believed in it, was pounded into them at church. But they were thinking it'd be a fast implement. Tech moves slow & that's how you get people to be unawares. You make something small, get people used to a little here & there. The very thing they preached about many years ago IS happening now. Just think of how they used that Virus to herd people together & to separate them with "tracking chips" in the phone. Now, I'm not saying I believe the bible. But I do believe people read it & make some things come true. The What came first, the chicken or the egg? As for the topic, No, I would not have this. I don't believe in having FitBits & Smart Appliances that can "read" your life. I certainly don't want an implant IN my body.
  25. TL;DR: The “Dragon Ball Super” manga faces a hiatus due to the passing of creator Akira Toriyama. Fans mourn his loss, and the industry grapples with the future of the series. Meanwhile, tributes pour in for the legendary artist. In an unforeseen turn of events, the manga community faces a hiatus of the beloved series "Dragon Ball Super." The sudden departure of Akira Toriyama, the esteemed creator, has left a void in the hearts of fans and a pause in the manga's publication. A Legacy Interrupted The "Dragon Ball Super" manga, which began its journey in 2015, has been a continuation of the epic saga that has captivated audiences for decade. While Toriyama was the narrative force behind the series, Toyotarou's artistic contributions brought the story to life. The hiatus, announced by V Jump magazine, leaves readers in suspense, with no clear indication of when the series will resume. Tributes Pour In for a Legend The global manga community is mourning the loss of a visionary. Toriyama's influence extended far beyond the pages of his works, inspiring countless individuals and shaping the industry. His passing from an acute subdural hematoma has prompted an outpouring of homage, celebrating his remarkable contributions to the art form. The Future of Dragon Ball Questions loom over the fate of "Dragon Ball Daima," another project that boasted Toriyama's deep involvement. The industry ponders how to proceed without the creative genius who once steered the ship. Meanwhile, fans eagerly await the English release of the 21st volume by VIZ Media this May, hoping for a glimpse into the future Toriyama envisioned.
  26. DOJ Lawsuit Against Apple: The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), along with 16 state and district attorneys general, has filed an antitrust lawsuit against Apple. They accuse the company of maintaining an illegal monopoly in the smartphone market by restricting competition and driving up prices1. Allegations: Apple is alleged to have disrupted “super apps,” blocked cloud-streaming apps, suppressed messaging quality between iOS and Android, limited third-party smartwatch functionality, and blocked competing digital wallets. These actions are claimed to protect Apple’s monopoly and harm consumers and developers. Legal Actions: The lawsuit seeks to prevent Apple from using its control to undermine competition and asks for relief to restore competitive conditions. The DOJ did not specify if they would seek to break up Apple but emphasized the need for remedies tied to the court’s findings2. Apple’s Response: Apple defends its practices, stating that the lawsuit threatens its principles and could hinder its ability to innovate. The company plans to move to dismiss the case and disagrees with the DOJ’s market definition, arguing for a global perspective3. The article details the government’s efforts to challenge Apple’s market practices and the potential implications for the tech industry.
