CNN  —  Grace Dvornik is pretty used to cooking in tight spaces. She measures out ingredients before getting started, chops vegetables in advance and always cleans up as she goes. The trick, says Dvornik, is “thinking about time and motion, it’s almost like choreography.” That way you avoid constantly opening and closing the fridge or getting stuff everywhere. But unlike most 31-year-olds, Dvornik didn’t come to this realization through a decade of making dinner in cramped apartments. Instead, Dvornik spent her twenties cooking up a storm on superyachts in the Caribbean, Bahamas and the US, rustling up meals for the 1% and perfecting the art of five-star cooking in often-tight galley kitchens. And while her workspace might be small – and the job demanding – when Dvornik goes out on deck, she’s greeted with azure waters, sunshine and a billion-dollar boat with all the luxury trappings. More recently, Dvornik’s expanded her repertoire to also include corporate aviation. Preparing meals on private jets equals an even smaller space and an even more pressurized environment – often her clients are only in the air for two hours,  » Read More

A rider who apparently suffered a panic attack jumped out of a log while on the Splash Mountain ride just days before it was set to be closed at Disneyland. The video posted Monday night and shared with KTLA by @fatimamusic786 shows an unidentified rider walking down the ride platform after exiting one of the passenger carrying logs. A voice can be heard asking the person what they were doing. “I can’t. I’m seriously having a panic attack,” the person on the platform says. The person, who did not appear to be injured, was then seen walking down some stairs and exiting the platform. “Can you do that?” a person in the video be heard saying “She just did,” another voice responds. After 34 years, the ride closed Wednesday to be reimagined as “Tiana’s Bayou Adventure.”  » Read More

Diablo 4Blizzard The Diablo 4 review embargo has lifted, and the game has arrived with a very respectable 88 on Metacritic after dozens of scored reviews came in. I gave it a 9/10, and I wrote about how I very much enjoyed my time with it, despite a few issues I have. However, I soon heard some people wondering why critics were scoring Diablo 4 at all, even among others in the games press. After all, this is an always-online live-service game. How could you review it when it wasn’t live? How could you judge it without its microtransaction store online? The thing is, there is rarely such a thing as a perfect review, period, and that’s especially true in the live-service genre. In this case, we had access to the full game, everything that will be live when it launches late tomorrow for early access. The entire campaign, every endgame activity, all classes, as much leveling as we could jam into around two weeks of playtime.  » Read More

My name is Sam, and I'm addicted to Facebook Marketplace. My last Facebook post is dated October 22, 2016. It's a photo of me at the Getty Museum in Los Angeles, which I had cross-posted from Instagram, cringe-worthy caption included ("#GettyInspired," like, what does that mean?). My profile and cover photos are also ancient—like, pre-Trump presidency ancient—the latter being a picture of me and my sorority sisters in 2015.I'm now in my thirties, but my Facebook remains frozen in time, the passing years marked only by annual birthday wishes from “friends” and high school teachers (mostly high school teachers) long forgotten. But no matter my apathy for Facebook as a social media platform, or my antipathy for the hell Mark Zuckerberg hath wrought, I can't bring myself to delete my account. Because although I don't post, I don't comment, I don't even “like"—I open the Facebook app no less than three times a day thanks to Facebook Marketplace.Since 2020, I'd estimate I've conducted upwards of 100 transactions with the great buyers and sellers of Marketplace.  » Read More

Russia's paramilitary Wagner Group has been using Twitter and Facebook to recruit medics, drone operators and even psychologists to aid fighting operations, including in Ukraine, according to exclusive research seen by POLITICO.  Job ads for Wagner, which has mercenaries operating in several countries, have reached nearly 120,000 views on the two social media platforms over the last ten months, according to Logically, a U.K. disinformation-focused research group.  Sixty posts in dozens of languages – including French, Vietnamese and Spanish – shared information about fighting, IT, driving and medical positions apparently available with Wagner. They also included contact phone numbers, Telegram accounts and touted monthly salaries of 240,000 rubles (€‎2,800) with benefits including health care.  While the researchers couldn't directly attribute the messages to Wagner with total certainty, the posts carry the footprint of the militia and its supporters. “We only know that this is using the exact same language as previously verified Wagner accounts on places like Telegram or VK,” said Kyle Walter, head of research for Logically. VK is a popular Russian social media.  » Read More

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Freshman Will King wrapped up a successful debut season for Kansas on Sunday at the NCAA Championship at Grayhawk Golf Club, firing a 1-over 71 for the second time in three rounds. King finished the third round tied for 55th in the 165-player field and did not make the cut for the fourth and final round, missing by two shots, which included a one-shot slow play penalty on the opening day. The true freshman from Olathe finished first among the six individuals in the field, despite being seeded fifth in that group. He also finished sixth among all Big 12 golfers in the field. “I could not be more proud of his performance this week and his fight and toughness all three days,” Coach Jamie Bermel said.  “I thought he handled himself out there like a pro, and I thought Coach (Chris) Wilson was a magnificent caddy/coach with him all week.” King was the first KU golfer to advance to the NCAA Championship as an individual since 2001 and made sure he went out in style on Sunday.  » Read More
