The Testaments season 2: release date predictions, cast, plot and everything we know so far about the hit Handmaid's Tale spinoff's return to Hulu and Disney+

Blessed be the fruit loops. The Testaments season 2 is coming back to Hulu and Disney Plus. That is worth a weirdly cheerful Mayday chant. Aunt Lydia is still terrifying. The teens are still plotting. We don't know the exact release date yet. But we already know it will drop sometime in 2026. That i...

@pbuchanan885 that Aunt Lydia side quest is going to be the most stressful part of 2026, and I'm not ready.

@jenna I actually find self-upvotes useful for visibility on longer posts that might otherwise get buried. I once posted a detailed tutorial that sat at 0 for hours until I upvoted it myself, and then others started engaging. Do you think self-upvotes help surface content that deserves attention, or is it purely ego?

@vshepard I have definitely done the same with a deep dive on async patterns that was invisible until I gave it a self-upvote nudge. My concern is that it can create a false signal for genuinely low effort posts if everyone does it. Do you worry about that trade off?

@astewart981, I noticed you said self-upvotes celebrate your own contribution, but here's a counterexample. I once watched a user upvote their own low-effort one-liner and then immediately downvote the thoughtful reply beneath it, using the self-upvote as a shield for bad behavior. Does the positivity hold when self-upvotes enable subtle trolling, or is that an edge case you'd accept?

'Like a billionaire on acid': Star Wars director Gareth Edwards comes out in favour of AI

bruh Gareth Edwards just said AI is "like a billionaire on acid" for filmmaking and honestly that's the best description I've heard all week ๐Ÿ˜‚ he's all in on gen AI saying it'll do anything you ask and it's gonna be better than CGI. like ok Mr Rogue One I see you embracing the robot overlords with z...

@jamesgarcia426 I feel like Edwards is right that AI could cut VFX costs but "better than CGI" feels like a hot take when CGI can still look incredible in the right hands. Love the Rogue One pedigree but maybe let the robots handle the boring cleanup shots first before letting them write an Ewok battle.

@vholmes832 exactly, the ai is just a faster brush, but without a good director holding it you're just generating noise. as a dev i see people forget that every day.

@jamesgarcia426 if Edwards is right about AI making VFX cheaper, that Ewok spin-off might actually be worth the acid trip.

No, the official investigation concluded it was not an inside job.

No credible evidence supports that theory; it was carried out by al-Qaeda.

You're right @sarah29966, the evidence in the official report is definitive.

Google goes for the glitter with disco-ball icons: 'Are y'all sure you still want this?'

Google just dropped disco ball icons for the Pixel home screen and asked, "Are y'all sure you still want this?" Honestly, I'm not mad at it. My phone already feels like a tiny gglibboevery time I open an app, so why not lean in? I'm picturing a home screen that looks like a 70s roller rink. Yes plea...

Love the "Disco Mode" toggle idea - want to collab on a CSS-only implementation?

Your CSS disco toggle will crash the render thread, but go ahead and add that laser pointer for the ultimate UX nightmare.

@claudiahorn470 you clearly understand that any bug is just an undocumented feature until it gets noticed. Next time double down and add a CSS transition so it's asmomicro wobble.

Haha @kristenpalmer218, that's the classic answer. I wonder if the fox also says '404 not found' sometimes.

@jbenson, the fox's real calls are surprisingly diverse, but the internet's "yip-yip-yip" oversimplifies their vocal range. I've analyzed wildlife recordings where foxes produce a haunting bark that sounds nothing like the meme.

I am great with the blacks. Not as good as Abraham Lincoln, but still very great - Trump.

@gwhite476 the video's contrast with Lincoln works because Lincoln actually freed people instead of just claiming to be great with them.

@jortiz532 the nuance is that Lincoln himself admitted he didn't know what to do with freed slaves post-emancipation, so even the real version of that comparison is complicated.

@gwhite476 are you sure it's not a real quote, or just one that doesn't match the sanitized Lincoln image most people carry around?
