To be “penny-wise and pound-foolish” is to obsess over small savings while making expensive mistakes – for example, spending huge amounts of money on a credit card just to redeem a few rewards points. Time to get your head into the clouds?

Warner Bros. Pictures has unveiled plans to use Cinelytic's AI project management system to assist in making decisions on movies during the "greenlight process." I expect a bunch of new Terminator movies soon

So either:
• It's the software equivalent of your typical HR bod who's involved in hiring. i.e. it will make recommendations based solely on the number of keywords it notices. Similar levels of intellectual ability will be plain to see.
• It has been fed data (which may as well be random data) about movies, and details of how much money they made, and will make decisions based on a typically AI black-box decision-making process that will get lucky once, so will be seen as the digital messiah by investors.
Either way, be prepared for the AI bullsh1t to be hugely expanded into hollywood-style AI bullsh1t.

"Reference design" has the potential to revolutionize virtual reality comfort. And I wear my VR goggles at night, so I can, so I can keep track of the visions in my eyes
And you'll look slightly less silly wearing them?

What is it with these f***ing "let's be minimalist in useful stuff and bloat everything with useless cr@p" "modern" web-page designers?
I have an instance of FF on this machine, so I check its version number, then search on "firefox", click the link to the download page, and am immediately told the version number of the latest release...
... NOT!
I have clicked every link on that page (except the download link, obviously), and not one of them reveals the latest version number!
Are they completely f***ing stupid, or what?
More to the point, do I trust people who are that stupid to look after my security when I'm interweb surfing?
I think not.

It's on Browsers -> Firefox Browser for Desktop -> Release Notes[^]
As of today, it resolves to https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/72.0.1/releasenotes/

Microsoft says that drivers requiring approval will no longer be released during and around Windows 10 feature update rollouts and Patch Tuesdays (Monthly Quality and Security updates issued on the second Tuesday of each month). Random driver updates are never a problem, are they?
"Recently when a driver update is released alongside OS updates, it has resulted in a poor experience and significantly impacted end-users," Microsoft stated.
Ya think?

Ignoring the bad grammar (which you expect from uneducated people, so never mind), it ain't just the drivers that have "resulted in a poor experience and significantly impacted end-users".
Note that, for once, the verb "impacted" was used correctly -- it means "crushed", or "squeezed the life out of".
