I know good people in Labour. Labour has long since stopped being a party for good people. I hope they notice soon.

Imagine being a government (especially a Labour government) that has this many amazing artists against you. Utterly shameful behaviour from Keir Starmer. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Several of the questions are designed to make the respondent feel out of their depth, and at least one makes no actual sense; basically it’s designed to make creators give up and back off. Don’t. In those cases I repeated “Obtain permission and pay for use”

There's a blog that @jameslark.bsky.social and I occasionally bother adding to, which sometimes gets new comments and today led me to this from the other James: The Bridge on the River Kwai: the best explosion of a thing ever. Raiders of the Lost Ark: the best explosion of a person ever. No notes

We found a location from The War Games (in glorious colour and everything) and, as any Who fan would, I scrabbled up the hill a la Troughton. Also, especially for @tobyhadoke.bsky.social, I recreated the comedy Roman soldier. #DoctorWho

I dreamt that I was working on the Doctor Who bluray range, and we'd lined Ian Marter up for an 'in conversation' but for some reason there was no one to interview him so I said I'd do it, even though I knew I'd be winging it because I hadn't really done any research.

Despite forty years of hacks saying “of course , nowadays you have to be a one legged black lesbian …” the number of black or lesbian or one legged people controlling your lives is still a homeopathic quantity compared to white blokes

Every review of AI is like: This isn’t very useful and it makes it harder to do simple tasks than if I just did it myself. Riddled with errors. Can’t see anyone using this. I feel stupider having tried this. That said I believe it will soon make human cognition redundant and eradicate us all.

I wasn't expecting much from this Labour government, but right now it feels like they're some kind of Trojan horse deliberately bolstering the reform vote for the next election by letting them set the agenda whilst simultaneously refusing to improve anything. Their complacency is STAGGERING.
