It's so fucking simple, but it's relieving to have a man in charge who can actually do the simple stuff.

Make. Podcast. Equipment. Hard. To. Acquire.

bunch of employees who work at the government facility where they keep ET wet freaking out because they need five things for the email but all they did last week was spray water on ET

It does feel like we're well into the chapter called "Factors leading to..." and barrellimg towards the one where the maps start getting really arrowy and shit.

It's called Java(Script) not Java(SeriousProductionSoftware). Stop it. Get some help.

Listening to @bbc5live.bsky.social allow genuine fucking idiots on their phone-ins is nuts. Johnny is doing a good job but honestly man tell the boomer to get fucked.

They want 1939 Germany, Let’s give them 1789 France.

Who could possibly have predicted that being anti-immigrant bigots who focus on “tough decisions” (aka cutting money for the poorest) while kissing billionaire arse would not go down well with a public that literally voted for a platform of change?

so far going anti-woke leads to less money and planes falling out of the sky

She refused to sit with the AFD in the European Parliament, so she's woke now.

there can be no more random selection of people in the world than the group that add you to their close friends list in Instagram

Yes, they can make robots that replace workers, but until they make robots that buy the useless crap that they produce, I don't see much point.

You don't beat the fash by becoming the fash...

Working in software, I always roll my eyes at people who use this phrase. In 2 weeks, I'll inevitably be helping them out because they've been moving slowly with broken things...

NFL conference championship day and I am so excited to learn 3 new rules today that nobody's ever heard cited before all of which mean that it's illegal to defeat the Chiefs while Taylor Swift watches

As someone with dietary requirements (certain food = death, no backsies), people who impaet their own dietary choices on a situation, and then make everything all about them, fucking infuriate me. You're vegan, you aren't going to die, pipe the fuck down.

Genuinely think half the country is in glue by this point

I have personally delivered GenAI use cases at multiple, massive, financial firms. This is not what GenAI is good at. OpenAI have lost sight of their actual goals.

Everything wrong in politics began when Gordon Brown was chastised for rightly calling a spade, a spade.

Even Sky Sports acknowledge that following the NFL in the UK is for weirdos and insomniacs. Its not even half time in the most anticipated game of the Divisional Round, possibly the best game of the post-season, and Neil and the team have just fucked off. Gone to bed. No warning. Nothing.

Refs help.

I wish we could cultivate a culture where people get excited about and share the new skills they've learned more than the new stuff they've bought.

Every museum should have a Little Guys Tour, and at the end of the tour you can buy reproductions of all the little guys

Gorgeous.

Reform has marks, not members.

I play this game where I deliberately sit next to people using the seat for their stuff, in preference to other empty seats. I'll then be as grim as possible for the duration of the journey. As a special treat.
