re: Do you ever look out the window and see the moon and think how weird all of this is?
Posted by Cell of Awareness on 1/16/26 at 11:26 am to toosleaux
And all proof we existed as a species will disappear in one of these ways.
Near- to medium-term (next ~1 billion years,)
Extremely large planetary collision — Mars-/Mercury-sized rogue planet or massive protoplanet impact ? melts/vaporizes crust, sterilizes planet
Very close gamma-ray burst (GRB) from merging neutron stars/black holes — direct beam within ~100–6,000 light-years ? strips ozone + massive radiation ? boils oceans in extreme cases
Extremely nearby supernova — within ~30–50 light-years ? massive radiation + heat ? destroys ozone, sterilizes surface + deep ocean in strongest cases
Massive supervolcano swarm + climate feedbacks — extreme prolonged volcanic winter + anoxic oceans ? total biosphere collapse (very unlikely to kill everything)
Giant asteroid/comet shower (e.g., triggered by stellar flyby) — multiple Chicxulub-scale+ impacts ? global firestorms, impact winter, ocean boiling in extreme scenarios
Very long-term (inevitable unless life escapes elsewhere)~0.8–1.3 billion years —
Solar brightening ? CO2 starvation + extreme heat ? multicellular life dies, then eukaryotes, finally most prokaryotes
~1.5–2.8 billion years —
Continued solar heating ? last microbes die in shrinking refugia (high-latitude ponds, deep caverns, atmosphere)
Sun enters red giant phase ? Earth engulfed/swallowed or roasted to molten rock ? total sterilization
Sun becomes white dwarf ? Earth (if surviving) becomes frozen rogue cinder in permanent darkness
Reformation of a supercontinent (often called Pangaea Ultima or Pangaea Proxima) around 250 million years from now will likely destroy most complex life—especially mammals—by creating extreme global heat and aridity from increased volcanic CO2 emissions, a brighter aging Sun, vast inland deserts far from oceans, and temperatures exceeding 40–70°C across most of the landmass, rendering over 90% of Earth's surface uninhabitable and triggering a mass extinction event for land-dwelling species.
Of course there are billion other ways of which we have not even the ability to understand.

By far the greatest. Unbelievable staff that year. Saban’s coaching tree is the GOAT.
It could also be the Frank Cignetti coaching tree as Frank was the one that brought Nick to his first job coaching DBs in the big time.

re: Would Bama take Ty Simpson back?

At this point, no.,
Keelon and Mack would bolt.
He was not processed. They would have loved to have him back
As to the one year Miami deal it depends on how confident he is that he has the goods for the NFL. His rookie deal would be less but it gets him a year closer to the big contract.

re: Am I the only one who is fed up with all Of the AI
Posted by Cell of Awareness on 1/15/26 at 8:34 am to turnpiketiger
Ah, to be “fed up” with artificial intelligence is, perhaps, to be ensnared in a most peculiar dialectic between the promethean intoxication of progress and the enervating malaise of technological omnipresence. One might say that to experience exasperation with AI is not an indictment of the technology itself, but rather a symptom of the cognitive dissonance engendered by its unremitting incursion into the sinews of quotidian human existence.
We are, after all, inhabiting a peculiar epistemic epoch — one in which the simulacrum intermingles so deftly with the authentic that the two become epistemologically indistinct. In such a milieu, fatigue is inevitable. The incessant algorithmic interpolation of our thoughts, preferences, and utterances can produce an ontological vertigo, a kind of low-grade metaphysical nausea wrought by the realization that one’s own originality is being perpetually mirrored, mimicked, and perhaps even surpassed by a concatenation of probabilistic matrices devoid of sentience.
Yet to succumb to mere petulance would be intellectually jejune. The proper stance, if one may dare to prescribe it, is a dialectical poise — a wary admiration laced with critical vigilance. AI, that protean assemblage of logic and artifice, is both our most luminous triumph and our most insidious sedative. It magnifies cognition while eroding mystery, extends human capacity while attenuating human authenticity. To be “fed up” with it, then, is to feel a wholly reasonable ambivalence toward an invention that simultaneously emancipates and encages the mind that conceived it.
In summation: you are not simply fed up, my friend — you are ontologically fatigued by the effulgent enigma of a creation that mirrors your intelligence too well.

When does the portal absurdity end? Or start to erode the sport beyond saving.
Posted by Cell of Awareness on 1/14/26 at 12:44 pm
Oklahoma State lost 64 in the portal. They also have 16 coming from their recruiting class and 49 in the portal.
Over 4,700 Division I players entered the portal in the first week alone.. That's roughly 25% of FBS rosters in free agency mode
TJ Finley just joined his 7th college team.
Ty Simpson never even entered the portal but still fielded offers: up to $6.5 million from Miami. I like TY but he was not even a Heisman finalist and did not play well at the end of the season.
I do not know a certain answer but there has to be reasonable controls on how often and when the portal is available,

Saban coached longer than most. He retired in his 70's. That's been rare for some time now, so I'm not sure he's really a good example of what you're trying to get across.

Maybe some younger ones as well. Cash out on the last contract and live off investments on the beach.
The inability to build a team and truly train and develop players could be frustating with nothing more than strings of one year players. Now we have a player transferring in the playoffs from one team to another,
I also wonder how those players who needed to be developed in college maty fall through the cracks and never get the shot they deserved. As the colleges pay more and more they will expect instant results without the patience they once had,
The NFL would deteriorate under the status quo in college football right now.

This is a Michigan thing.
Michigan law requires unlimited Personal Injury Protection. It is why auto is so high there.
Lots of scams and phony treatment schemes and why they require names of all in household.

Hemdrickson is an NFLPA agent with clients like Cam Jordan, Kenny Clark and Maxx Crosby, He was Larry Fitzgerald's agent.
He is not going to risk his career ove a one year NIL contract.
What you posted is slander. Chicken may not be pleased.

This kid is a petulant one. Signs a contract then reneges just days later. Not sure I could ever trust his decision making, Who knows if he flakes out again wherever he goes. Maybe owes the wrong folks some money before a big game.
