Today on the 5: I was very fortunate that a friend of the show sent me an invite to Bluesky. Bluesky is a very Twitter-ish social media site is one of many trying to establish itself as a natural successor to the bird site, and like all the others has one major flaw that may doom any chance of success.

Today on the 5: One of the co-founders of Pluto.tv, an ad supported streaming service, has a new product coming in the form of a free physical TV. The company will subsidize the television by collecting data bout the owners, and I'm genuinely interested in how it will pan out.

Today on the 5: Lando and I recently finished playing through Gotham Knights. It's ended up being a very mixed bag, with as much good as bad. If nothing else, it made me like Red Hood a lot more than I ever did before!

Today on the 5: A recent Information story described the LLM group inside Apple as one where things are less than idyllic. While many of these stories come off as ex-employees venting, it only takes a few minutes interacting with #Siri to make me believe what they're saying.
