.@smerconish finally did it: a mad professor was a guest today. This guy was so into his bubble he actually suggested prediction markets should be used to determine when to go to war.
A cautionary reminder that that the ivory tower can be dangerous.

.@smerconish Poll Q: "If the Iran war crashes the US and/or world economy, will the Trump administration pay a [steep] political price?"

It's 8:57 AM ET and there're only 7 minutes left this week of @SIRIUSXM #POTUS 's blowhard @ChrisCuomo noise. What a poor replacement this is for the very-much-missed "Potus Mornings."
At least @smerconish (next up) can be interesting, aside from endless "mingle" shtick.

Whoa! $100K?? If true, it might be worth a year or two on an icy rock — as opposed to paradise in FL.

Own a new #BMW? In the trial period for a subscription service? Want to take advantage of the offered discount in the app?
Fugahdaboutit.
@BMW @BMWUSA can’t cancel an active trial and can’t add a subscription until the trial ends.
It’s #TheUltimateSalesRigidity

So, @TMobile is able to bill me monthly for a grandfathered small business plan but _cannot tell me if the international roaming included in that plan has changed_.
It’s a business that can collect for a product but can’t describe it to the customer.

Yo, @Azure @AzureSupport: WTF? No burstable instances in eastus? Plus, you killed my VM which was _not_ on spot pricing.
ETA?

Yeah, no TV like @YouTubeTV ‘s overpriced, stuttering, low-quality 4K stream of #SBLIX. And no, it’s not my 1Mbps fiber wired connection.
They shoulda spent the $$ on tech, not embarrassing themselves with commercials during the pre-game show.

In addition to the echo chamber on the 1/24 episode bemoaning Trump’s blanket pardon of 1/6 rioters (which was very wrong), @wedu #floridathisweek allowed an element sure to drive MAGA crazy: a guest with an American flag pin turned upside down.
Disrespect.

Gee, #NFLonNetflix, could your stream look any worse? Sacrificed quality this time to avoid a repeat fail?
I’m old-school but that 2000-era resolution is just ugly.
BTW, #Sony #Bravia 9 in calibrated #Netflix mode.

A delayed reaction to today’s @smerconish on @CNN: I can’t decide if it’s more galling or more infuriating to hear @profgalloway rant about “the bottom 90%” from the comfort of a tenured job at @nyuniversity.
Just pure BS from pointy-headed elites! Adds fuel to #MAGA.

Hey, @Netwrix, shouldn't this be, "Get-MyFreeCopyNow"? And how about showing a #PowerShell version newer than one from 2016?
Can't buy me love, or apparently, verisimilitude.

A fanboy asks: will #Microsoft ever learn that charging for logging will inevitably hurt its customers and the company?

OMG. Where did you get the long-winded "analyst" guest, @smerconish_com? One can only hope you never ask him for directions to the nearest Wawa.

Many of my non-technical friends are asking what happened in the global IT outage today.
I like this article from @CNNBusiness. It even (correctly) describes how the Windows kernel can be corrupted in simple language:
