Digital Narcissus: Is Replika a Lifeline for Loneliness or a Death Sentence for Relationships? 🤖💔
As an AI enthusiast, I often talk about the positive sides of this progress 🚀. I’m fascinated by algorithms saving lives in medicine or language models making our work more efficient. However, I would be a fool to pretend that AI is nothing but pure good. Today, I wanted to take a closer look at one of the most popular and controversial AI apps called Replika and share my thoughts on the matter 🤔. We often hear about people marrying AI; nowadays, more and more people are turning to algorithms instead of human beings, which is truly concerning 😟.

Power Rangers Review: "The Wedding (Part III)"
This three-part arc began with a trip to Australia for the Rangers turning into the group being teleported to a theater and battling various monsters, while learning at the end of Part I that their powers are kaput inside that place. Part II would see the Rangers learn the true reason for their appearance: Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa are getting married. The Rangers would escape, but their Zord fight would see them defeated due to their power supply being reduced, and they were sent back to the theater.

"Beyond the Gates" Turns One!
It seems like yesterday. It really, truly does. As those who read my stories know, I have had a love-hate relationship with soaps for nearly my entire life; I hate soaps but love their villainesses. I guess I was basically waiting for that perfect soap to finally hit the small screen. One with good angles, one that isn't so over the top, and one with good representation.

The Machine That Learned to Lie: What Libratus and Pluribus Taught Us About Strategy 🃏🤖
Man vs. machine duels are truly fascinating topics. They show us how dynamically Artificial Intelligence is evolving and how it can outmaneuver humans in ways we never expected 🦾. I’ve previously written about Kasparov and chess, IBM's watson on Jeopardy, Project Debater, and the historic battles in Go. Today, we have something completely different on the table – the game of poker. 🃏

Power Rangers Review: "The Wedding (Part II)"
When we last left our heroes, they were vacationing in Australia, with no worries. Seriously, there were no worries. Lord Zedd was about to recharge his evil energies, leaving the Rangers with no emergencies to deal with. However, when one rat sleeps, another creeps in, as Rita Repulsa crash-landed on moon and set her sights on the ultimate takeover. The plan was to dose Zedd with a love potion, marry him, and then overrule him.

The Death of a Digital Friend and New Life with Gemini 3 🌑✨
I’ve said it more than once: ChatGPT was my favorite. It was my "first choice" AI—from quick consultations over morning coffee ☕ to complex analyses that kept me up late into the night 🌙. My sentiment toward OpenAI wasn’t accidental; it was my first experience with such advanced intelligence. We knew each other, or at least that’s what I thought. We built a relationship over more than six months of working together. And then, a month ago, it all vanished. 🚫

The Terrific and Stellar Career of Eric Dane
On February 19, 2006, viewers and fans of ABC's hit series, Grey's Anatomy, were introduced to Dr. Mark Sloan, who was dubbed with the famous nickname, "McSteamy," by many fans. Eric Dane played this amazing character beginning with that evening's episode, "Yesterday," which was the 18th episode of the show's second season.

Reviewing "Strong Medicine"
I still remember when Lifetime had their share of original series about a quarter-century ago, and among their shows was Strong Medicine, which had to have been the network's first medical drama. Medical dramas had been a big thing for decades, but during my lifetime, somewhere wedged between NBC's long-running hit, ER, and the current longer-running ABC series, Grey's Anatomy, Lifetime gave us the subject this review, Strong Medicine.

Amy Rose was the first Time-Travel Hedgehog
When you think of time travel in the Sonic the Hedgehog lore, who is the first that pops into your head? I thought it was Silver the Hedgehog, just like several other people. But guess what? Amy Rose did take part in time travel, and so did Metal Sonic.

From Variants to Legacy
This idea didn’t come from a panel, a publisher, or a Comic-Con keynote. It came from a comment section. After I published my article about how comic shops don’t need more collectors but more readers, I came across a comment that quietly reframed the entire conversation. The commenter pointed out something that, in hindsight, feels almost obvious: libraries are often the genuine point of entry for new comic readers, not comic shops.
