Peacock's movie library is solid. I say that as someone who regularly forgets to check out the NBC Universal-owned streaming service when I'm in the mood for a movie night. We get so used to tapping into the big dogs like Netflix and Disney Plus, and they are chock full of good stuff, but Peacock deserves its flowers, too. There's always something cool to watch on Peacock, no matter what genre you're looking for. Then there's the Universal part of the equation. Universal Pictures knows its way

Japanese Online Marketplace Begs People to Stop Selling Ultrasound Photos

Some people will tell you that no one wants to see pictures of your kids, but they’ve apparently never been on the Japanese marketplace app Mercari. According to SoraNews24, there was a surprisingly robust market for ultrasound photos on the e-commerce platform, which resulted in Mercari ultimately banning the sale of said images.

Universal Pictures has a stellar reputation for releasing box office hits and Oscar-winning movies. It's been doing this for

Occasionally USPS sends me pictures of other people's mail

I’ve been using Informed Delivery from USPS for over 5 years now, and am generally a big fan. However, I’ve noticed that every once in a while I’ll catch a scan of a piece of mail that is not addressed to me. Here is an example of the most recent. Notice, the image contains 2 pieces of mail. The one in back is addressed to me, and I assume I’ll receive it later today. The one in front is addressed to some unknown neighbor in my zip code. As a security conscious software developer, this kind of

A large sampling of these titles can be found here, including the first-ever blockbuster, Jaws, among

10 Years of Pomological Watercolors

10 years of pomological watercolors A decade ago today I published a blog post calling for the US government to release its paintings of fruits. The Pomological Watercolor Collection, as I had recently come to know, is a beautiful and remarkable corpus of over 7,000 pictures of fruits and other biological specimens, made between the 1880s and 1940s. Through a handful of FOIA requests I’d learned that the images had been meticulously digitized and put online for purchase, but that less than 100

A shark scientist reflects on Jaws at 50

If you've been in the ocean, there's been a shark not that far from you, and it knew you were there, and you probably had no idea it was there and had a pleasant day in the water. The sharks that do bite people, they take a little bite and they go, what is that? And swim away. That can be real bad if it hits a major artery or if you're far from shore. Again, I don't want to minimize the real harm. But it is not a shark hunting you because it has a taste for human flesh. They don't have hands. Th
