Thought this was a reference to the famous Cal football rock fight phenomena at first.

I wasn't a huge fan of KRQR growing up. I do remember listening to KMEL (106.1), 99.7, maybe KFOG (104.5). Forgot what other stations.

KITS Live 105 started up while I think I was in middle school. But I didn't like alternative rock so I only listened to Alex Bennett in the morning.

10 years ago, they came out with the masterpiece, Holiday Sweater.

They've had holiday videos since the late 2000s. Here's a playlist for the Sharks fans.

I take it back. Looking at the list, I guess they made ones for a few years after Holiday Sweater.

Some Dodger fan bought the ball Aaron Judge dropped in Game 5 of the World Series for $43,510 at auction. The proceeds for the auction, run by the Dodgers, will go to the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation.

At least we can all finally move on from this bad 49ers season.

That was mostly ugly. Credit to both sides for some good defense, but that was mostly ugly.

3 FGs in 4th quarter is pretty impressive

Friday the 13th. What could possibly go wrong?

Fortunately for Cal, there is no FB game, and Fernando is already gone. No BB game to lose either.

Untrue. The women's team, which is on the cusp of the top 25, hosts Furd tonight in their ACC opener. People seem to forget we have a women's sports at Cal with some pretty good teams.

Understandable. Scanning one major score service didn't include it, apparently because Stanford, despite being 7-2, is not ranked (why on earth is that?), a scenario that was apparently not considered to be possible. Calls into question the ranking of WBB as well.

Cal will find a way to lose the off-day.

Must be some indicator of age when an entire lifecycle of a technology passes during your life. For me, Blu-ray, CDs, Palm devices. iPods. VHS, SVHS, Betamax.

Gotta include Blackberry and tube TVs in that list (glad you remembered Palm, I would've forgotten that already). Also for my lifetime, tape cassettes and 8-tracks, and whatever those old home videos used to be on (Super 8?)...

Are Playstations still Blu-ray?

Expand full comment

Yes.

Oh I just realized the article is for LG only. Although it looks like Samsung and Sony exited the market already. I wonder if the PS6 will be discless, though I doubt it. Not enough people have high speed internet so Sony can't expect everyone to DL games. And unless they come up with a next gen disc, they'll have to keep supporting Blu-ray since games are getting larger and larger.

Texas House floats a bill to start a strategic Bitcoin reserve. I have many thoughts.

Just a giveaway of your tax dollars to btc holders

it's a great way to launder money, although it's beyond me why anyone attached to this incoming administration would think they need to try and hide that

Bad idea. It will come back to bite them.

Crypto is a Ponzi scheme.

Which makes total sense that Trump wants it. Also Elon Mr Dogecoin Musk.
