I've seen an AI ad on YouTube featuring RFK Jr. It's using his voice and image to sell some quack diabetes treatment. Good choice in spokesperson, when I think quackery, I think RFK Jr. It's poorly made. The biggest tell is he talks in first person about discovering this treatment and selling. It's all fake.

I didn't know this was a thing. It's on Hulu. It's good in my opinion.

I posted this while watching the movie. It's excellent. Anthony Hopkins is beyond perfect. It's only an hour and a half. It could have been three hours and I probably would have sat through it. Hellen Mirren and Anthony Hopkins are wonderful together. If you get a chance you should watch it. It's so well acted. Great cast.

If Anthony Hopkins & Helen Mirren did a version of Mr. & Mrs. Smith, it would kick ass (albeit slowly).

Agreed. They could act out the Sear catalog and it would kick ass.

This amused me:

I was excited to learn of a place called The Hungry Dragon Cafe in Marietta GA. Upon investigation, it's in Murietta CA. Clearly, I misread the website.

I noticed while watching a part of a women's soccer match that an Icelandic player had the last name Jonsdotter. I've seen women with dotter in the last name before. I understand it's for the daughter of Jon. If she has a brother, is his last name Jonson? Or is it Jonsdotter? Is her father's name Jonson or Jonsdotter?

If I understand it correclty, her father's name would be Jon.
If she had a brother, his last name would be Jonson.

The icelandic normally don't use a family last name if I understand it correctly but rather a patronym.

It has to be a little confusing for outsiders when everyone in a family has a different last name.
The first time I saw this was years ago when a Swedish player had the name Olafsdotter. They kept saying the name over and over, she must have been a star player. I said to myself "Who's Olaf and why do we care about his daughter?"
Does Sweden do the same thing? Would her father be Olafson or dotter?

 

[Ulfgeir]

Sweden doesn't do that. There are some individuals that has done similar things. But we have proper family names
