did you guys see the interview Ella Purnell had with Techradar a while back? Probably not worth a full report, but what she says regarding season 2 is... interesting

(for those too lazy to read the whole thing, her exact words were "It's devastating, and nobody will feel good after watching it." which certainly bodes well for the future)

Our team is unable to recall if we had mentioned this interview in a previous post or if it had just been a topic of discussion among ourselves. Regardless, we are indeed aware of the interview and we are looking forward to being devastated and not feeling good

E.M.A Robot Girl "Eternal Maiden Actualization" (AKA WowWee FemiSapien), WowWee Robotics and Sega Toys (2008). "Sega, known for its game consoles and Sonic the Hedgehog, has gone down the rather unusual route of creating a battery powered miniature robot girlfriend for lonely adult males. Called EMA (which stands for Eternal Maiden Actualization) Sega hopes this mini-fembot, which it describes as petite, friendly and big-busted, will bring joy to those in need when it is released onto the market in September. She may be just 15 inches tall, but she's ready to entertain: she can sing, dance, hand out business cards and "walk like a lady". What's more, if you are feeling amorous, just activate her 'love mode' and using her infrared sensors she will detect and kiss any human heads in her vicinity." – Sega makes robot girlfriend for lonely men, TechRadar.

yooooo WoT show didn't stop filming due to the SAG AFTRA strike! because the actors are Equity, not SAG for this production.

WoTseries revealed in April 2023 that production had already begun for Season 3 in Prague. The outlet then reported that filming had to take a pre-scheduled break in August 2023 before going back to work in the Czech Republic in September 2023.  Meanwhile, some fans are confused as to why work for The Wheel of Time was not disrupted by the Hollywood writers' and actors' strikes as has been the case for many other major movies and series. Judkins clarified, via IGN, during the show's New York Comic-Con panel that the scripts for all eight episodes of Season 3 had already been written before the WGA strike started in May.  As for the cast, the showrunner pointed out that "they're on Equity (the British actors' union) contracts, not SAG contracts:"

“We were very lucky that we had eight scripts before we started so we were able to keep going,” Kehoe said. “And the production team were unbelievable. Cast-wise, they’re on Equity contracts, not SAG contracts, so they were contracted and able to work. We’re one of very few shows, I think, that was able to keep going. We really were lucky, and I’m just very grateful for the huge team of people, the crew, because it’s been so tough for everybody.” In June 2023, Daniel Henney, who portrays Lan, told Techradar that they were able "to get a good chunk of [Season 3] done: "Filming has begun. We had the scripts done [before the writers strike], so we were one of the lucky shows that had them locked. As of right now, we're still shooting and we were able to get a good chunk of it done. But we'll have to see what happens down the road."

Which email service is the sexiest?

Seeing as how I've been at the mercy of Google for almost my entire existence, I went ahead and looked up some different providers to do this justice. Thanks techradar I guess. In order of least sexy to sexiest:

Yahoo 2/10 I'm over the purple and if I ever have to say Yahoo ever again I'm going to start a riot in a Denny's parking lot.

Outlook 2.5/10 It's lacking pizzazz

Gmail 4/10 Customizable, themes, kinda sexy but I'm a "be you" kinda gal. Don't change your hair just to please someone else, girl, love yourself.

Zoho 6/10 I like the red, it's doin it for me

Proton 9/10 I don't know what it is about that layout but daaaaamn.
