Last Breath

Based on the true story of a North Sea deep diver that got stranded 300ft or so on the ocean floor while a storm raged affecting the ships computer systems.

Fascinating story, guy had no oxygen for over 25 mins, suffered no ill effects, and continued to dive!

Woody Harrelson and Cliff Curtis both star.

3 last breaths out of 5 it wasnt really his last breath

As an Arab, Mexican or Pakistani I assume ?

Apart from his stock American characters, I'm pretty certain he has played South American and Samoan as well.
There are rumours he's also played a Māori character. But I'll believe it when I see it.

He's done okay, he has that neutral look that allows him to play all sorts of characters, good bad, and a variety of ethnicities

Lol i knew that was coming up here

Fiiiiine

Teacup

Good series so far, weird and spooky enough to keep me entertained.

Maggie is my favourite character for some reason

Naturally despite good reviews and viewing numbers it’s been cancelled after one season as so often happens nowadays.

Awesome, may as well not bother watching the rest

Apparently this sort of stuff happens quite frequently with an average age of 47 bing reported. Thank fuck I'm a older ferner.

Vernor Vinge's Singularity essay.

is it this? https://edoras.sdsu.edu/~vinge/misc/singularity.html

Yeah - written in 1993. And while a "scientific essay" - mostly using Science-Fiction as reference points.
I believe he was the one that coined the term "Singularity". And interesting is his estimate of when it would happen - "I'll be surprised if this event occurs before 2005 or after 2030."
While today's "AI" is not really anything more than advanced-analytics... if leveraged by smart people towards its own advancement - he might not be too far off.

Brian Wilson. The genius of geniuses behind The Beach Boys. Had a few mental issues but battled back to do some amazingly good stuff later in his life.

George Martin called him a true musical genius and the Mozart of his age. Not going to argue

Successful launch, starship made it into their target trajectory in space.

Booster didn't make it - they tried a steep angle of descent and a hard burn - looked like issues with lighting the raptor enginers.
Starlink deploy didn't happen

Waiting on re-entry. Big test coming up for renewed heat shield
