    A dying professor gave one final lecture. Millions have watched it since. In September 2007, Randy Pausch walked onto a stage at Carnegie Mellon to give a talk called "Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams." He had just been told he had three to six months left to live. Pancreatic cancer. The room gave him a standing ovation before he said a single word. He asked them to stop. "Make me earn it," he said. For the next hour, he didn't talk about dying. He talked about the things he wanted as a kid — zero gravity, working for Disney, playing in the NFL — and how he actually got most of them, or something close. He called the real trick "head fakes." You think you're learning one thing. You're actually learning something else entirely — how to work with others, how to fail without quitting, how to notice what matters while you still have time to act on it. He wasn't giving the lecture to the room. He was giving it to his three young children, who were too small to remember him. He recorded it so that one day they'd know exactly who their father was. He never once asked for sympathy. He said the brick walls in life aren't there to stop you - they're there to prove how badly you want something. He died ten months later. The talk has been watched by tens of millions of people who never met him, most of whom weren't in any danger of dying soon. They watched anyway, because it turns out you don't need a diagnosis to ask yourself the same question he was really asking that night. If you had to compress everything that mattered about your life into one hour, and someone you loved was the only one in the room - what would you actually say?

    @spencerpratt Yet there were no problems with these mergers: - Skydance Media + Paramount Global (2025) - WarnerMedia + Discovery (2022) - Amazon + MGM (closed 2022) - Disney + 21st Century Fox assets (2019) - Viacom + CBS (2019)

    @SceneZeroMedia @wandering_gordo The biggest problem post endgame was covid and Disney plus. 3 movies a year isn't a problem when those movies are the focus and not the pandemic and being forced to pump out tv shows they didn't want to make In the first place. They'll be fine. Especially since only 1 in 2027.

    I would have significantly less issues with KH a s a whole if it was its own separate universe but the fact that it HAS to be connected to FF because disney loves their brand recognition is so annoying

  • Wezzelus
    Wezzelus (@Wezzelus) reported

    @vmohv @wolfyvelvet No the problem is you see KH as a Square IP and Disney IP. But it's not. It's a Disney game made by Square. I'm not saying FF shouldn't be a part of it anymore. I love them showing up, but don't make KH something it's not

    @AntonioBadu_ It’s not a bad movie nor is it a disgraced.Chadwick died, Disney & Marvel made a choice that reflected the feelings of the cast, the fans and understood it would change the MCU. Regardless of that, calling it the worst MCU franchise is a colossal reach.

    The Disney parts have always been the worst part of Kingdom Hearts and I'm tired of pretending they weren't. Kingdom Hearts 3 was ruined by 90% Disney, 10% overaching story, which was delegated to the very end of the game, on top of being the FINALE of the Xehanort Saga.

    @LadyVValerian @JamesEisen1891 @ellonico So what you're saying is death to Disney adults for pricing children out of quality toys and subsequently usurping them as the target demographic for said toys

    @commandant64907 @jboogx_creative The creator sees it; I don't. I understand now, but I still don't see a problem now. I think all creators have this problem; you see the flaws, and the audience just doesn't notice. I just see nice Disney-style animation and a nice voice.

    @vaviati @Rueniz Disney is much more troublesome to deal with than FF. Frozen's world in KH3 is a known example of a world that just didn't work as intended because Disney said "Nuh-uh!"

    @Ace109610 @TriotheClown If we’re talking actually releasing it in theaters it would bomb harder than that Disney Snow White movie. But low budget as a Max (or whatever network they end up on) it could work

    @HoudiniBabe Oh ok, that's good, we have Disney+ so I'll catch it there 👍🏻. I'm sure you'll have no problems with a ticket for this tbh, unless you really want to see the opening showing with a q&a or something 🤔

    @JosefuRichard @xIlyria @TenguRey Well everything outside of the Disney worlds was just directed poorly anyway or paced weirdly. The gummi phone scènes were eh... The fight scene at the Keyblade graveyard is some of the worst writing and cutscene direction I've ever seen. I hope KH4 will improve on this.

    HP Incorporated 79 Years Ago Today On August 18, 1947, Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard incorporated the business they had started in 1938 and formalized as a partnership in 1939. Disney became their first major customer, buying eight modified Model 200B oscillators for theaters showing Fantasia. A coin toss decided the name order; the usual version says Packard won and put Hewlett first anyway. @HP management story matters as much as the garage. The company popularized management by walking around, wrote its corporate objectives in 1957 and introduced flextime in 1973. It also offered profit sharing and employee stock ownership. The HP Way was something people were expected to follow. The products were just as sharp. The 1968 HP 9100A was a desktop computer sold as a “calculator” because purchasing agents could approve calculators while computers required senior management. The HP-35 arrived in 1972, sold 100,000 units in its first year and sent the slide rule into rapid decline. The LaserJet followed in 1984 and made printing a profit engine for decades. Then it got ugly. The Compaq merger triggered a bitter proxy fight led by Walter Hewlett, Bill’s son and an HP director. In 2006, investigators searching for boardroom leaks used pretexting and surveillance against directors and journalists. The worst came on August 18, 2011, exactly 64 years after HP incorporated. HP announced its roughly $10.3 billion bid for Autonomy, ended webOS device operations and considered separating the PC business. Fifteen months later, it recorded an $8.8 billion Autonomy impairment. The PC separation was abandoned. One day, three self-inflicted crises. HP split in 2015. HP Inc. took PCs and printers; Hewlett Packard Enterprise took the enterprise businesses. Many saw a retreat. A decade later, it looks more like a hedge. @HPE’s biggest move since then was its $14 billion acquisition of Juniper Networks. The Justice Department sued to block it before settling, and the deal closed in July 2025. Juniper brought routing, security, data-center networking and Mist, its cloud-managed networking platform. Early results look promising, although the acquisition inflates recent growth comparisons. HPE is betting that much of enterprise AI will remain in private or hybrid infrastructure because of regulation, data sovereignty, latency and cost. It must make money beyond hardware through networking, software and services while competing with Cisco, Arista Networks and Dell Technologies. HP has a simpler problem: “AI PC” is not yet a reason to replace a working laptop. Local agents that can work across private files may change that. Revenue rose 13% in HP’s latest quarter, but units fell 7%. Printing was flat, consumer printing fell 10%, and HP plans to cut 4,000 to 6,000 positions by fiscal 2028. Two halves of one company at opposite ends of the same wave. HPE sells the infrastructure where AI runs. HP Inc. has to prove AI belongs on the desk. Not bad for a garage.

    @deegztweetz @comicaccuracy Honestly the shows definitely could have been better, but outside of a few, they weren't terrible. They just needed refining and proper structure. But Disney and Marvel are still saying **** that I guess. Can't wait to just get special presentations and cartoons from now on.

    @APAC_Plains @PhDan_ Duels says we can stream it RB says not if you wanna work with us, but I came to the realization that wont happen for me anyway. Being "brand" friendly might not be in the cards for me and thats okay at this rate. I actually talk about it last night but id not be able to stop myself from trying to slip a **** ICE or Free Palestine in an official Disney based content. Especially after the handling of my goat Mark Ruffalo, my appreciation of Disney has declined I fear.

    Sarah: Is Lily coming this year? I need to know if we should bother cooking or if she’ll pay for catering like last time. David: Oh she’ll come. Where else would she go? She lives for work and being our Santa. My hands stopped shaking. Something cold and hard settled into my chest, replacing the tears with a strange, steady rage. They assumed I had no life. They assumed I was so desperate for their acceptance that I’d keep funding theirs forever. They assumed wrong. I sat up in bed. The room was still dark, but my mind felt painfully awake, sharpened to a single point. I swung my feet onto the floor, stood, and walked to my tiny kitchen. The linoleum was cold under my bare feet. I poured water from the tap and drank it standing at the sink, staring at my own reflection in the window. My face looked pale, eyes swollen, hair pulled into a messy knot that still held the impression of my scrub cap. I looked like someone who had been giving away pieces of herself for years and only now noticed the holes. My phone buzzed again. More messages in the chat. I didn’t read them. I opened my laptop. If my family wanted a reality check, I was about to deliver one with receipts. First, I logged into every account that had my name attached to their convenience. For years, I’d treated it like a small thing. It’s only Netflix. It’s just the phone plan. It’s easier if I handle it. It was never small. It was a system. The Hulu account? Mine. Netflix? Mine. Disney+ for the kids? Mine. Spotify family plan? Mine. Amazon Prime? Mine. iCloud storage for my mother’s ten thousand photos? Mine. And the phone plan. I stared at the Verizon dashboard and felt my stomach flip again. Six lines. Six. All under my name. Paid with my bank account. I clicked through usage. David averaged forty-seven gigabytes a month. Streaming, gaming, whatever else he did while complaining about financial hardship. Sarah’s phone line showed endless social media use, hours and hours of scrolling through other people’s lives while living off mine. Chloe had been making international calls—France—because her boyfriend was studying abroad. That explained the extra fees I’d been paying for months without question. My mother had discovered TikTok at some point and was now chewing through data like it was candy. My father barely used his phone, but it was still there—one more leash in the system. I didn’t cry again. I didn’t have room for it. I did what I’d learned to do in the ICU when a patient started crashing: I stabilized the situation first. Panic later. I created a new email address—one my family didn’t know. I set up a Google Voice number that none of them had ever seen. I enabled two-factor authentication on every account, using the new email and new number. Only when I was sure they could not lock me out of my own life did I begin dismantling theirs. The phone plan came first. Six lines cost me around $300 a month. Three years of that was more than ten thousand dollars, and I’d treated it like background noise. I called Verizon. A cheerful agent answered, asking how she could help. “I need to disconnect all secondary lines immediately,” I said. There was a pause. “We can transfer the numbers to the other users,” she offered brightly, like she was doing them a favor. “No,” I said, voice flat. “Disconnect them. No transfer.” Another pause, longer this time. “Ma’am, they will lose their numbers.” I smiled, but it wasn’t happiness. It was relief. “Good,” I said. She tried again. “Are you sure? Sometimes family members—” “Disconnect them,” I repeated. The agent’s tone shifted into professional compliance. “All right,” she said. “Your primary line will remain active. Secondary lines will disconnect in forty-eight hours.” “Thank you,” I said, and meant it. I set a calendar reminder for the exact time the lines would die.

    @meleebrawler64D Here’s a reality take: Sony tried to cut Spider-Man off of Marvels teet and the fans revolted. Even Tom Holland drunkenly called Disney to make it work out. There’s a reason why MCU live action Spidey has the best box office dollars. And it’s. It cause of Sony.
