Nothing particularly insightful to say, other than I found it to be a lot of fun, and I wasn't bored once. Also, Spider Noir's ability to nimbly skip between genres without tripping on them is pretty impressive. I particularly like how they nailed the 30's B&W monster movie feel -- both the...

FYI: Apple also released security updates to Sequoia today, as well (macOS Sequoia 15.7.7): About the security content of macOS Sequoia 15.7.7

Wow -- talk about a timely article! I've been planning to downgrade my newly purchased (and almost unused) M4 Max Studio from Tahoe to Sequoia this weekend, via a DFU Restore. Since there's nothing on the Mac Studio I care to keep, a DFU Restore seemed like it would be worth it. (As Andrew...

A comment and an FYI: The MST3K version of Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is not only the best of their Christmas episodes, it's also arguably the best episode they ever did. The riffing is peak, and several of the host segments are brilliant (I'm looking at you, Wish Squisher). It's...

Looking at it from the narrow viewpoint of Last Week Tonight fans (of which I am one), Netflix purchasing WB/HBO Max seems much more preferable than having the other likely buyer, Paramount/Skydance, getting HBO. The latter is owned by The Ellisons, and are hand in pocket with the Trump...

Same same. Would desperately hope Oliver could move the show somewhere else; it's both hilarious and (amazingly) a very effective information / watchdog show. Not for nothing that it's won one or more Emmys every year since its debut in 2015.

Ghost stories are the one form of horror movie I truly enjoy (for those of us where spooky > gory); and this is a really solid list, with a number of favorites (including several that rarely see mentioned outside of cinephile sites). A few subjective comments on the list: The Uninvited: A...

That said: THANK YOU, Dr. Mole. I really appreciate your summary of what actually happened.

My first thought on seeing this article listed on Ars' dashboard was: wow, the reduction in Musk-related Ars articles since he got jettisoned from the SS Trump has really been pleasant. My second thought was (of course), "What an asshole."

I echo Jennifer's positive review of Season 2. There's a lot of the early Sandman comics that I've never liked very much (just me -- I'm not a fan of horror, and the serial killer convention/first Corinthian storyline, while having some great satirical bits, is not my cup of tea), and so...

Oh... that Wade.

Yeah, it has it's slow spots -- but if you're a fan or student of 30s/40s comedies (particularly Frank Capra's), it's a very funny satire of those films. And if nothing else, you get Charles Durning as a foul-mouthed angel playing a ukulele. That ain't hay.

4 of my standout favorite series of the year (and 2 that I enjoyed but didn't flip over) are listed in this article, so I'm definitely going to check out those series mentioned which I haven't watched. Thanks, Jennifer!

Actually, I would argue that confabulations that are coherent are worse. Those are the ones that can't be readily identified as being deepfakes.

This.

Subscribing to HBO Max for one reason and one reason only: John Oliver and Last Week Tonight.
