    Reading Thread

    Great thread. Here are a few that I've read in the last few years that are fantastic: The Ministry for the Future - Kim Stanley Robinson The Overstory - Richard Powers [Maybe the best book I've ever read] Between The World and Me - Ta-Nahesi Coates Children of Time - Adrian Tchaikovsky The...

    Sports Cards

    I was a huge hockey card collector until Covid made everything insanely expensive - here's my flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/189973945@N08/albums I'm a huge, huge fan of SP Authentic hockey.

    The Musical Instrument Thread

    Was just about to post a thread about guitars...great to find this one. I ordered this Suhr about two years ago and it's finally coming sometime next week from Eddie's Guitars in St. Louis. They are absolutely top notch. Will post my two other main guitars likely tmrw - a blue Tele and a 335...

    A Historical Look at the Origins of Extremeskins

    Yes indeed. ASF seemed deeply troubled. I hope he's found peace.

    Is this run different - or when will the past be dead?

    Perhaps the curse was Dan Snyder. Regardless of whether you believe that his ownership was due to the fulfillment of a curse or just the boyhood dream of a pretty terrible person realized, he was the core reason for continual failure since the late 90s. The name being changed is IMO totally...

    Is this run different - or when will the past be dead?

    Either way, we've been at sea a long time. Sitting here and considering all the analogies to Odysseus' travels. Stumbling slightly on the one for obstructed view seating at FedEx, but plenty of others feel right on the nose. Maybe speaking to much of my own experience but the general upbeat...

    News Bot - Tentatively Named - BubbaBot[?]

    Very happy to speak to a tech contact just to have a sense of what's possible. I was thinking this would auto create a thread at say 8 AM ET each morning and post it in Sons of Washington from the identified sources leveraging key words that the Staff could define and ideally fiddle with from...

    News Bot - Tentatively Named - BubbaBot[?]

    Totally fair feedback and sincerely appreciate the reply. Sounds like a RSS/thread per news story is definitely out given the value proposition/fundamental lack of use. The vision I'd had was something that would e.g., scrape/copy news stories and then post say three/four sentence summaries. We...

    Random Commanders Thoughts

    If my experience procuring tickets to other sports is any indication, substantially all seats in playoff games go through a "waterfall" of people who have "right of first offer" on the seats - i.e., in the case of the NFC Championship, I'd expect it'll go something like the following: (1) season...

    News Bot - Tentatively Named - BubbaBot[?]

    So based on John's feedback, perhaps the only viable runner would be (3) - i.e., an enhanced digest via Chat GPT to summarize the articles to make the overwhelming a bit more consumable.

    News Bot - Tentatively Named - BubbaBot[?]

    From the Department of Suggestions That I Cannot Implement... At work, we've used ChatGPT and similar functions to automate lots of tasks. Wondering whether there's someone in the BGO-verse that has the technical chops to program a bot to do a (copyright sensitive) news collection of all...

    Commanders News (Social Media)

    Is there a BGO bot to do the yeoman's work that bubba used to do at ES and auto-post an article and/or create a daily digest of links to (relevant) WFT media/stories?

    Is this run different - or when will the past be dead?

    “The past is never dead. It's not even past.” William Faulker's famous quote on the intertemporality of experience came to mind as I was reading Dave McKenna's post regarding yesterday's win on Defector earlier today. McKenna, as many of you may remember, was a very vocal and righteous critic of...

    Tell the Truth Monday- Wildcard Round Edition

    I'm extremely out of date on the team, the players, the coaches, etc. but the vibe that Daniels puts off is just completely different to really any QB that I remember seeing since the Old Days. Winning on a FG that hits an upright? That's not really a WFT thing. That's what other teams had done...

    A Historical Look at the Origins of Extremeskins

    An incredible wave of memories going through this thread and thinking back to when I came to the boards in the Fall of 2002. I was a first year in law school and spent a - in retrospect and perhaps even if I was honest with myself at the time - embarrassing amount of time on the boards. I'm not...
