Shows up fine on my end. No paywall anywhere.


Hollywood movie and TV star Daveigh Chase has died at the age of 35.
She passed away on Tuesday after developing sepsis from meningitis and an infection in her blood, her boyfriend Roy Hernandez shared with TMZ.
The actress was admitted to a hospital in Los Angeles in early June because of malnutrition, the site also claimed.
The Las Vegas native is best known for playing Samara Morgan in the hit 2002 film The Ring alongside Naomi Watts and Amber Tamblyn.
She also voiced Lilo in the hit 2002 Disney film Lilo & Stitch and the follow-up TV show.


Not a good news day for Lemmy’s “kill the rich, eat the rich” crowd. lol


But, but, but, Lemmy told me that he didn’t do it. And that he was a hero. But how was he a hero if he didn’t do it? lol
Now looks like he’s gonna admit to doing it and saying he was ‘extremely emotionally disturbed’ at time of alleged killing.
Guys, he’s going to prison for the rest of his life. And it didn’t change the insurance industry at all. It didn’t start a wave of mass rich people killings (like you all wanted), and it didn’t start a whole new ‘eat the rich’ movement.
He’s a loser, and he’s going to prison for rest of his life. No matter how upset that makes you.


So murdering an exec on a street, in cold blood, was heroic?! You think murdering is ok?


From the article: Luigi Mangione’s lawyers have unveiled a new strategy ahead of his murder trial, announcing that they plan to change his plea to deploy a psychiatric defense, arguing that he was ‘extremely emotionally disturbed’ at the time of the alleged killing.
Mangione’s representation presented the defense at a pretrial hearing on Wednesday, according to presiding judge Gregory Carro.
In response, Carro has ordered the defense to produce Mangione’s psychiatric records immediately and unseal records from a secret hearing two weeks ago.
In order for his attorneys to deploy a psychiatric defense, they typically must formally withdraw a prior plea. Mangione had previously pleaded not guilty to the charges against him.
Mangione has been charged in state and federal court in connection with the death of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, 50, in December 2024.
His state murder trial is set to begin on September 8. If the defense succeeds in convincing a jury that Mangione had been suffering from a psychiatric condition at the time of the alleged killing, he could receive less prison time.
Mangione’s defense team requested a secret hearing two weeks ago to present the strategy. Carro has now said he will unseal records related to the hearing to avoid blindsiding the prosecution.
Karen Friedman Agnifilo, Mangione’s lawyer, has advocated against unsealing the transcript from the hearing, arguing that it could harm his federal case.


Ponzi scheme that made a LOT of money. So much that I was able to quit my job. So I ain’t complaining. I already made my money on it :)


That’s how he got rich. And it’s awesome.


Well, he sure has been “lucky” in every venture though. I think after being that “lucky,” that many times, it’s no longer luck. It’s skill.


Love him or hate him, they are where they are because of him. Before anyone says, “The engineers build the ships!!!” then how come they didn’t do that before he started everything? Why don’t they do that on their own?


It works though. :)
Yep, and local server LLMs that are open source and not corporation-controlled are awesome to use. But Lemmy isn’t good a nuance so a lot of posters don’t realize that and just scream “ai slop!” at everything. lol


Lemmy gonna hate this news! lololol


I’m 51 and I feel great. Just got back from a 10 mile hike in my local mountain range. Beautiful day for it!
But back to you: So I want you to think about how quick the last 10 years have been. Now in that same amount of time, you are gonna be 50. And 50 ain’t old, but those are the guys you called out in your original comment.
Lot’s of 20 year olds think 40 is old and that 40+ people are ruining the world. You are in that group. lol


comments that say titles with shouldn’t exist shouldn’t exist shouldn’t exist


I want one now!
Good catch. I was reading from my phone and not even looking at the date! Removing now. Thank you!
