• Elon Musk Once Said He Mainly Tweets While Pooping, So We Now Have Grave Concerns About the Condition of His Gastrointestinal System
    futurism.com
    We're just trying to understand.Skiposti ToiletWho among us doesn't love a good dump-n-post: a chance to clear your mind and your rectumHowever much you enjoy it, the richest man in the world has you beat, according to his past interviews and posts."At least 50percent of my tweets were made on a porcelain throne," tweeted the mogul back in November of 2021. "I'm tweeting more or less stream of consciousness," he followed up in an April 2022 interview, adding that "I'm literally on the toilet or something."That "or something" is absolutely load-bearing, because as it turns out, Musk is now averaging over 67 tweets per day that's an estimated daily posting time of 2.7 hours according to recent data analysis. And that's a conservative estimate there are several days where the best gamer in the world and head of numerous multibillion-dollar enterprises eclipses triple digits, bringing him up to over 5 hours of pure posting.In light of these revelations, we have to ask Mr. Musk: are your bowels okay bro? Are you dehydrated, and what's your fiber intake like? Should we grab you some Imodium? And do the drugs have anything to do with it?Super HumanThe sheer logistics of the posting let alone the pooping are mindboggling. Musk's bragging about his hustle is legendary, with the entrepreneur variously and dubiously boasting about working 24/7, sleeping on the Tesla factory floor, developing a tequila brand, owning no possessions, raising 11 kids, maintaining his top rank on Diablo IV and Path of Exile 2, challenging fellow CEO Mark Zuckerberg to a cage match, and saving thousands of lives in LA not to mention running the country while somehow making time for almost three daily hours of poop breaks. Kudos on the time management!Here's the thing though: Musk isn't actually doing all that crap. In spite of his staggering wealth, the pattern established by his biographers is that he gets obsessed with one company, bothers everyone there relentlessly, then disappears for a while, or moves onto another temporary obsession.As the analysis above observes, "stats like this should be enough to disabuse the notion that people like Elon whos wasting hours every day boosting racist trolls have fairly 'earned' their unimaginable wealth. Unless, of course, you think its possible to spend 2.7 hours a day on social media and still be ~4 million times more productive than the median American."Musk has been estimated to grow his net worth by a rough average of $54 million every single day, or around $2.3 million every single hour (and that's giving him the benefit of the doubt that he actually does work 24/7). That comes out to millions of dollars just while he's pooping. Every single day.So the next time your legs fall asleep and you lose track of time in the ol' WC, just remember: that's billionaire shit.Share This Article

Currently in seventh place, that result rekindled the hopes of coach Will Still and his men of European qualification this term.Lens host PSG on Saturday, Jan. 18, at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis, with kickoff set for 5p.m. CET local time, making it a 4 p.m. GMT start in the UK, a 11 a.m. ET or 8 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada, and a 3 a.m. AEDT kickoff in Australia early on Sunday morning.Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch game lives wherever you are in the world. Deiver Machado's 77th minute strike earned Lens a 2-1 away win at Le Havre last Sunday. Catherine Steenkeste/Getty ImagesHow to watch Lens vs. PSG in the US without cableSaturday's game is live on BeIN Sports, which holds broadcast rights for Ligue 1 matches in the US.There are several options for watching BeIN. Several cable and satellite TV providers in the US offer the network as part of their channel lineup, including Dish Network, Optimum and Spectrum (the latter requiring $7 a month for the Sports View add-on).If you're a cord-cutter, there's a whole host of streaming platforms that carry BeIN Sports. Sarah Tew/CNET With an excellent channel selection, easy-to-use interface and best-in-class cloud DVR, the $73 per month YouTube TV is one of the best cable TV replacements. In order to watch BeIN Sports on the platform you'll need its Sports Plus add-on, which costs an additional $11 per month.Read our YouTube TV review. See at YouTube TV Sarah Tew/CNET BeIN is available on Sling TVas part of its Sports Extra add-on for either Sling Orange or Sling Blue.Its Orange and Blue packages start at $40 per month, and you can combine them for a monthly rate of $55 ($60 in some regions), with Sports Extra costing an extra $11 a month. The Orange option nets you one stream, while Blue gives you three. It's not as comprehensive or as easy to navigate as YouTube, but with a bit of work, including adding an antenna or an AirTV 2 DVR, it's unbeatable value. We'll also add that the service offers local channels such as ABC and CBS in some regions where the monthly rate is $45.Read our Sling TV review. See at Sling TV Ty Pendlebury/CNET Fubo There's a lot to like about Fubo. In addition to BeIN Sports, it offers a wide selection of channels, plus its sports focus makes it especially attractive to soccer fans, as well as NBA, NHL and MLB fans who live in an area served by one of Fubo's RSNs. It's also a great choice for NFL fans, since it's one of three services, alongside YouTube TV andHulu,that offer NFL Network and optional RedZone. The biggest hole in Fubo's lineup is the lack of Warner Bros. Discovery networks, including HGTV, Food Network, Cartoon Network, CNN, TNT and TBS -- especially since the latter two carry a lot of sports content, in particular NBA, NHL and MLB. Those missing channels, and the $80 price tag, make it less attractive than YouTube TV for most viewers.Read our Fubo review. See at Fubo On top of this, BeIN Sports Connect is the network's standalone streaming platform. You can log in with your cable or streaming service credentials if your provider has BeIN in the package. This allows you to stream live matches and other programming on various devices (smartphones, tablets, laptops and so on).Make sure to check if BeIN Sports is included in the specific package or plan you are considering, as it might be part of a sports bundle or require an additional subscription.How to watch Ligue 1 from anywhere with a VPNIf you find yourself unable to view Ligue 1 matches locally, you may need a different way to watch the games -- that's where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it's also a great idea if you're traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.With a VPN, you're able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors' Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you're streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.

There is now an option for watching games live, with the dedicated streaming platform Ligue 1 Pass up and running and showing today's game live. Ligue 1 Pass French football fans can now watch every Ligue 1 game live on subscription streaming service Ligue 1 Pass.The service is priced at 10 a month, and can be accessed via the Ligue 1 Pass website.

First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs -- like Roku -- don't have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you'll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you're using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location.All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install a cable network's sports app, you'll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help since both devices will appear to be in the correct location.Remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you're using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommendBrave.

  • Poppy Playtime's going after Google
    www.eurogamer.net
    Poppy Playtime's going after GooglePop goes the weasel.Image credit: Mob Entertainment News by Vikki Blake Contributor Published on Jan. 18, 2025 Poppy Playtime developer Mob Entertainment is suing Google for failing to remove "scam" apps from the Google Play store.In legal papers filed on Wednesday (thanks, TorrentFreak), Poppy Playtime's creators accuse Daigo Game 2020 Inc. of releasing "scam" apps intentionally advertised with names like Poppy Playtime: Chapter 3 and Poppy Playtime: Chapter 4 well before the instalments had been officially released for mobile devices.To see this content please enable targeting cookies. Nintendo Switch 2 and Mario Kart 9 have been revealed - but questions remain.Watch on YouTubeAs well as blatantly using Poppy Playtime's name, promotional art also clearly uses Poppy Playtime's characters and screenshots from the authentic game's second chapter.According to the complaint, Mob contacted Google numerous times over several months, but each time an erroneous app is removed, it simply pops back up again a day or two later.The apps reportedly don't even download a copycat or derivative game, either."Mob Entertainment's trademarks and copyrighted material to trick consumers into spending up to $95 for a game prior to its release on Google Play. Instead, it asks users to pay $30 to $95 for the 'Guide wuggy playtime mod'," the complaint added."Google receives a direct financial benefit from the infringement by the users at least because users with devices containing the application are given an offer to purchase the Guide wuggy playtime mod for up to $95. If they make the purchase, Google then receives 15-30 percent of the proceeds."At the time of writing, the scam game is still available to view, and install, on the Google Play store. Unless players know, explicitly, who publishes the game, there's absolutely no way of telling them apart, particularly as it doesn't list a user score or link to user reviews.Whilst the real game is a premium product and listed as having 10K+ downloads, the fake app has been downloaded over a million times. Image credit: Google Play store"Google forfeited the benefits of the DMCA's safe harbour provision for its infringement of Mob Entertainment's copyrighted works contained in the unauthorised 'Poppy Playtime: Chapter 3' and 'Poppy Playtime Chapter 4' applications," the court filing said."The unauthorised Poppy Playtime applications have tarnished Mob Entertainments Poppy Playtime [copyright] mark by associating it with poor quality applications that are nothing but bait-and-switch scams."Google's illegal, unfair, and fraudulent business acts and practices have caused Mob Entertainment to spend copious amounts of resources, including its employees' time, in a fruitless effort to attempt to get Google to remove applications committing copyright infringement, trademark infringement, fraud, and other unlawful and unfair business acts and practices."Mob Entertainment seeks "actual damages in an amount to be determined in excess of $75,000", all of Daigo and Google's profits from the scam apps, court costs, and $150,000 in damages per work infringed. It is also hoping for an injunction to prevent Google and Daigo violating its trademark in the future.This is the latest in a line of game developers who have called out digital game stores for not promptly dealing with intentionally misleading or copyright-infringing games.Just last month, the creative director of indie hit Unpacking, Wren Brier, called out Nintendo due to the prominence of copycat games on its Switch eShop, and days later, fans spotted Black Myth: Wukong imitations, too. The 2D platformer's gameplay and presentation are markedly different, but its promotional art and title could easily be confused with that of Game Science's blockbuster.

  • Chamberlain Cottage by Marcel Breuer and Walter Gropius
    archeyes.com
    Chamberlain Cottage | Ezra StollerDesigned in 1940 and completed in 1941, Chamberlain Cottage represents a critical moment in Marcel Breuer and Walter Gropiuss adaptation of European modernism to the American landscape. Commissioned by Harvard professor John Chamberlain and his wife as a weekend retreat in Wayland, Massachusetts, the project was a direct response to the clients request for a house that incorporated a porch similar to the one Breuer had designed for his residence in Lincoln.Chamberlain Cottage Technical InformationArchitects1-2: Marcel Breuer and Walter GropiusLocation: Wayland, Massachusetts, USAClient: John ChamberlainConstruction Year: 1940Area: 93 m2 | 1,000 Sq. Ft.Photographs: See Caption DetailsThe house represents the modern transformation of the original American wooden building. It was only one large room and a kitchen and bath, but in my opinion it was the most important of all, and had perhaps the greatest influence on the development of American architecture. Marcel BreuerChamberlain Cottage PhotographsHistoric PhotographHistoric PhotographOriginal HouseHouse + Addition | EstatelyHouse + Addition House + Addition | EstatelyHouse Extension | Estately Estately EstatelyBedroom | EstatelyChamberlain Cottage Design ConceptUnlike the Gropius House (1938), which served as a manifesto of the International Style, Chamberlain Cottage explored a more restrained, regionally responsive approach. It engages with its site through material selection and spatial organization, addressing climatic and topographical conditions rather than imposing a rigid formalism.This modest dwelling is significant within Breuers oeuvre as a prototype for his later residential projects and for exploring prefabrication, cantilevered structures, and the integration of traditional building materials within a modernist framework.The cottages design responds to the uneven terrain and the potential for river flooding by employing a two-part composition: a grounded stone base and a cantilevered wooden volume. This configuration protects the structure and accentuates the contrast between heaviness and lightness, a recurring theme in Breuers architecture.The lower level, built with indigenous stone, functions as a foundation while providing storage for a canoe and housing a fireplace that extends vertically through the structure. The upper wooden volume, by contrast, projects outward like a suspended vessel, engaging the landscape rather than merely occupying it. This upper level accommodates a compact program a living space capable of hosting a guest, a library with shelving for 500-1000 books, and a single bedroom.The cottage has two separate entrances: one at the lower level, flanked by low stone walls, and another leading directly into the elevated living spaces. As Breuer noted in his sketches, the west-facing cantilever was intentionally oriented to maximize views, reinforcing the idea that the house is as much about its relationship to nature as it is about spatial efficiency.Closely spaced double columns frame a conservatory on the northern side, a design element Breuer previously employed in his Lincoln house. Enclosed by a panoramic window, this space places the inhabitant directly in the surrounding forest, dissolving the boundary between architecture and landscape.Structural Innovation and MaterialityChamberlain Cottage exemplifies Breuers ongoing interest in prefabrication and modular construction. Many of its wooden components were pre-assembled before being installed on-site, demonstrating an early attempt at streamlining construction processesthough this system ultimately remained more of an experiment than a widely adopted method.The use of indigenous stone for the base anchors the structure and allows for a material continuity with the landscape. This contrasts with the wooden upper volume, which appears delicately placed atop the stone, enhancing the perception of weightlessness. The juxtaposition of materials is further emphasized in the interior, where wooden floors transition to stone surfaces near the fireplacean element that, for the first time in Breuers work, was designed as a free-standing object rather than an integrated wall feature.The cantilevered wooden volume is supported by a carefully concealed structure that allows for an uninterrupted overhang, visually extending the building into the landscape. Though refined in Breuers later projects, this structural approach demonstrates his early mastery of balancing tectonic forces to achieve both functional and aesthetic outcomes.Influence, Legacy, and CritiqueAlthough Chamberlain Cottage is not as widely discussed as some of Breuers later projects, it represents a key transitional moment in his architectural trajectory. The project foreshadows many of the spatial and material ideas he would develop in subsequent residential commissions, particularly in modularity, prefabrication, and the synthesis of modernist principles with site-specific conditions.Its influence extends beyond Breuers work; it reflects a broader shift in American modernism toward regional adaptation. While early modernist imports often struggled to reconcile their abstract formalism with local building traditions, Chamberlain Cottage demonstrates that modernism could be rigorous and contextually sensitive.However, despite its conceptual strengths, the cottage was not a scalable model. The prefabrication techniques employed did not evolve into a mass-producible system, and its highly specific response to site and client needs made it more of a bespoke architectural statement than a widely applicable prototype. Additionally, while the house integrates with the landscape visually, its functional limitationssuch as its compact size and specialized layoutraise questions about its adaptability over time.Nevertheless, Chamberlain Cottage remains an important case study for architects interested in the intersection of modernist ideals and regional specificity. It challenges the notion that modern architecture must be detached from place. Instead, it suggests that thoughtful material choices, structural ingenuity, and spatial economy can create a meaningful dialogue between built form and environment.Chamberlain Cottage PlansUpper Level | Marcel Breuer and Walter GropiusLower Level | Marcel Breuer and Walter GropiusElevations | Marcel Breuer and Walter GropiusSketches | Marcel Breuer and Walter GropiusChamberlain Cottage Image GalleryAbout Marcel BreuerMarcel Breuer (19021981) was a Hungarian-born architect and designer renowned for his pioneering contributions to modernist architecture and furniture design. A key figure of the Bauhaus movement, Breuer initially gained recognition for his innovative tubular steel furniture, including the iconic Wassily Chair. After emigrating to the United States in the 1930s, he collaborated with Walter Gropius at Harvard University. He later established his practice, shaping mid-century modern architecture with projects like the Whitney Museum of American Art (now the Met Breuer) in New York and the UNESCO Headquarters in Paris. Breuers architectural language, characterized by bold sculptural forms and an exploration of concrete, left an enduring impact on modernism, blending functionalism with expressive materiality.About Walter GropiusWalter Gropius (18831969) was a German architect and founder of the Bauhaus, one of the most influential design schools of the 20th century. A key proponent of modernism, he championed functionalism, industrial materials, and the integration of art, craft, and technology. After fleeing Nazi Germany, he settled in the United States, where he taught at Harvard and shaped the next generation of architects. His works, including the Fagus Factory, Gropius House, and contributions to post-war urban planning, reflect his commitment to rational design and social responsibility. Gropiuss ideas continue to define contemporary architecture, emphasizing clarity, efficiency, and human-centered spaces.Credits and Additional NotesDesign Team: Marcel Breuer, Walter Gropius, and possibly students from Harvard GSDStructural Engineer: Not widely documented, likely influenced by Gropiuss network at HarvardMaterials Used: Wood-frame construction, indigenous stone masonry, glassConstruction System: Prefabrication and on-site assemblyArchitectural Style: Modernist with regional vernacular influences

  • Harriet Bennett House // c.1912
    buildingsofnewengland.com
    While most houses I have featured in Cornwall date to the early-mid 19th century, there are some great examples of early 20th century Colonial Revival dwellings, built at the time the town became eyed as a wealthy retreat for city-folk. This Colonial Revival residence was built for Ms. Harriet Bennett (1841-1928), an ardent suffragist and an active member of the Connecticut Woman Suffrage Association. Harriet was married to William C. Bennett and after his death in 1898, she devoted the rest of her life to charitable causes and giving back to others. As a widow and in her seventies, Harriet oversaw construction of this house, which was completed by 1912, in that same year, established the Cornwall Equal Suffrage League, hosting many of its events and meetings from this house. The Leagues activities mirrored the efforts of suffragists throughout the nation. The house remains a well-preserved example of a house in the Colonial Revival style in town.
