Discovered this podcast last night. As an #oldfool I can heartily recommend it. The swearing is sublime. #podcasts

Sure you've seen the famous #BayeuxTapestry, but have you seen it in all its sensational high-res thread-glory? Breathtaking online resource, a joint effort of the City of Bayeux, DRAC Normandie, Fabrique de patrimoines en Normandie, University of Caen, & CNRS: www.bayeuxmuseum.com/en/the-bayeu...

Seen a few folks astonished by my lack of support for ChatGPT and similar. Because AI, right? Yeah, no. What we have right now is glorified autocorrect. Glorified autocorrect that takes the energy of an entire city to do what it does, plus half of Lake Erie to cool down while it's doing it.
