Slightly inaccurate, Peele said the offer was "fucked up" and phoned the next day to ask about pay, finding out that Stewart had got the role instead. Peele then quit acting.
Stewart likely just accepted it without second thought because he found it hilarious, Peele was confused
Reminder that when they offered the role of the poop emoji in the emoji movie to Jordan Peele, he took it as an insult and thought it was beneath him and it led to him quitting acting, so they were like "fine, we will offer it to Sir Patrick Stewart," and he gladly took the role and made jokes about how it was one of the most important roles of his career. RIP to a real one.

Patrick Stewart as Captain Jean-Luc Picard. Picard holding his face in his hand in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode Deja Q (1990)

The future of #ArtificialIntelligence is not pre-determined. As a technology developed by human beings, its future depends on the choices we make. We therefore have the responsibility to guide, change and, when necessary, reject its applications. A reliable system that serves the human person is of greater value than one that is exceptionally powerful but whose consequences cannot be adequately foreseen or controlled.

Machines are tools, not persons. Today, some propose granting these systems rights, or even legal personhood. Such an approach risks obscuring human responsibility and leaving those who suffer harm to confront a faceless entity.

Hi guys,
I’m humbly asking for your prayers and support.
One of my bestfriend’s dad is currently admitted to the hospital and is undergoing medical treatment. Last time I spoke to her they were advised that her dad needs to angiogram then angioplasty or bypass.

ao3 has got to be money laundering cause that site should not be held together by sticks and glue like it is when they get millions in donations every year
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
OTW, which runs AO3, publishes annual budgets and IRS Form 990s. Recent revenue ~$800k-$1M in donations, majority for AO3 servers/hosting/equipment. Volunteer-run with $0 salaries. Financials public.

I can't believe they got Polymarket, Binance, and AO3 all on the same day. The three pillars of the digital economy.
binance hacked, ao3 extensive downtime, the php thing from a while ago, this is one of those days that leaves me feeling very schizo
We estimate that service restoration for #AO3 will take around 2 weeks but it could be up to 4 weeks. We are hopeful that we will be able to bring the site back up in a degraded state sooner. Refer to our status page for updates: otwstatus.org/
