Reminder Cristiano Ronaldo should have missed that match (and Tuesday v Uzbekistan) but FIFA decided to suspend two games of his three-game suspension for violent conduct in Portugal's penultimate World Cup qualifier DR Congo probably quite grateful in hindsight

The same Lewis Hamilton who used a corporate leasing structure to save money on taxes (around £3.3 million in VAT) when acquiring his Bombardier Challenger 605 private jet in 2013? The same Lewis Hamilton who bought the £16.5 million jet through his British Virgin Islands company (Stealth Aviation Ltd) and who then set up an Isle of Man leasing company (Stealth (IOM) Ltd, to import it into the EU and sub-leased it to a UK jet management firm (TAG Aviation), which in turn provided it back to Hamilton and his Guernsey company under charter agreements? *That* Lewis Hamilton?

Lewis Hamilton says there should be a limit to how much wealth one person can have "One of the things that I struggle with every day is that there is such a disparity between the wealthy and the poor” "When you drive around LA there's still so many people living on the streets. You shouldn't be able to have billions" "I think there should be a limit to how much you can have because there's enough to go around for everyone”

Seems important to remember she disowned him, not the other way around. She gave up perhaps the largest inheritance in human history because that's how important it is to be yourself
What he hates about his daughter the most is that she’s happy, so he’d rather think of her as dead

You're a very stupid man.
Hitler was also left, just a different type of left. Hardcore socialist.

So geil wie bei dieser Studie jetzt alle kritisieren dass das 9 Euro Ticket zu mehr Bahnfahrten in der Freizeit geführt haben. God forbid, dass sich auch ärmere Menschen mal die Berge anschauen können

Bruder was hat der Kommentator da gerade zu Nationalelfspielern die jünger als Lennart Karl waren gesagt ? Jamal Musiala, Uwe Seeler und möglicherweise Youssoufa Moukoko ???

Simply put, no.
Sharks, snakes, and alligators should be shot indiscriminately and often.

Cristiano Ronaldo lost his head after Álvaro Arbeloa didn’t let him score his favorite tap-in. Getting mad because your own teammate scored is crazy. Lionel Messi could never 😭

Name a single thing Cristiano Ronaldo does better than Lionel Messi.

Sam Altman is such an incredible backstabber, liar and traitor. While your competitor is taking a heroic and principled stand, you swoop in to make your deal. Imagine working for this guy - is there a greater shame? This should lead to a mass exodus from OpenAI.
Tonight, we reached an agreement with the Department of War to deploy our models in their classified network. In all of our interactions, the DoW displayed a deep respect for safety and a desire to partner to achieve the best possible outcome. AI safety and wide distribution of benefits are the core of our mission. Two of our most important safety principles are prohibitions on domestic mass surveillance and human responsibility for the use of force, including for autonomous weapon systems. The DoW agrees with these principles, reflects them in law and policy, and we put them into our agreement. We also will build technical safeguards to ensure our models behave as they should, which the DoW also wanted. We will deploy FDEs to help with our models and to ensure their safety, we will deploy on cloud networks only. We are asking the DoW to offer these same terms to all AI companies, which in our opinion we think everyone should be willing to accept. We have expressed our strong desire to see things de-escalate away from legal and governmental actions and towards reasonable agreements. We remain committed to serve all of humanity as best we can. The world is a complicated, messy, and sometimes dangerous place.

Nichts ist so deutsch wie eine BILD-Kolumne, die den Bürgermeister von Jesus‘ Heimatstadt belehrt, er habe die „Weihnachtsbotschaft nicht verstanden“ — weil er über das Leid der Palästinenser spricht. Eine Einreichung in letzter Minute für den kartoffeligsten Text des Jahres. 🏆
„Jesus hätte uns alle zu Nächstenliebe und Vergebung ermahnt. Hätte an Palästinenser wie Israelis gleichermaßen appelliert, zu lieben, statt zu hassen.“ m.bild.de/politik/ausland-un…

One of my favorite things in the whole world was finding out that Billy Crystal improvised the whole accent thing and when he asks Meg Ryan to repeat “I would be proud to partake of your pecan pie” she laughs and looks right at Rob Reiner off camera, but he just kept rolling

Reiner could’ve shot each call separately and just edited them together but nope. One large room, real phones lines, and captured in one take with about 60 attempts… it’s a symphony. He was such a phenomenal storyteller.

Jokić now leads this decade in total points, total rebounds, total assists, and total steals! No player in @NBA history has ever played a decade in which he led in 4 out of 5 major statistical categories. The record is 3, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in the 70s.
Last night, Nikola Jokić finished with 28 points and surpassed Jayson Tatum for the most points scored this decade (including playoffs).
