Only just got the end of the Euro❤️ision results, I just want everyone to know I picked the winner and now it's stuck in my head. Bangaranga!

In case you think my post about another post being ambiguous is ambiguous, my 9yo son has just put "people hacking into your bank account" as a disadvantage of IT. Please don't connect ChatGPT to your bank account.

LinkedIn: here's an article you might like. Me: Oooh, yes please. However now's not convenient so I'll close LinkedIn and read it later. [later] Me: [opens LinkedIn] oh, that article's been replaced by an AI fan boy post from 3 weeks ago, which will stay at the top of my feed for a month.

In case you find this post ambiguous, please don't connect ChatGPT to your bank accounts.

There are enough votes for a majority to rejoin. And it takes the fight to Reform on an election winning issue. Labour's problem is leakage of support to their left. There is some risk granted but I am sure Reform do not want this discussion

he isn't pro joining the eu. he's pro saying he's pro joining the eu in order to con you out of a vote.

Eurovision 2026 : le petit guide pour comprendre cette nouvelle édition

@freebsdfoundation.bsky.social hi, obviously you have extensive online documentation available, but is there a printed book ypu could recommend? I'm thinking along the lines of an idiot's guide - fits me perfectly!

We appreciate Edwin Kremer’s thoughtful reflections on 'Integrated by Design" by Vivian Voss. It’s encouraging to see the FreeBSD design philosophy articulated so clearly: coherence, predictability, least astonishment, and long-term stability. Thank you to Vivian Voss.

Happy Eurovision day

"Carl Waugh, 54, said: "For Labour to start infighting now is not a good move," he said. "We've had 16 years of Tory government - turning that around in less than two years is not achievable." It was 14 years, and it's 3 years until the next GE. Other than that...

"Nigel Farage to 'throw everything' at Andy Burnham by-election as Reform claims it could win" There's only one reason you'd say that, and that's if you see Burnham as a massive threat. Farage normally laughs off competition quite casually.

A colleague sent me a picture of a prolonged hail shower in Cardiff yesterday. I can't emphasise enough that this was clearly a sign from Zeus, warning Reform voters that they're an abomination and if they carry on like this far worse will come.

I'm glad, and hope you're enjoying them.

@nuclearwar.bsky.social I've *finally* got around to listening to your podcasts after meaning to for years :)

Copilot is just 21st century Clippy isn't it? I mean, basically it's saying "It looks like you're writing an email. Would you like help with that?"

[LinkedIn] "...to drive the companies vision and technology offering..." That's a plural, you mean company's.

Got to listen to this during eye surgery which helped. youtube.com/watch?v=2JGL...

I'm delighted to have been voted top of LinkedIn's "Weirdly gangly tall Welsh IT geeks wearing a yellow hoodie on Sunday" list for May 10th 26.

Michael Bublé is opening the World Cup

I think I've just invented a brilliant new twist on the board game "Guess Who?" for UK audiences: "Are you wearing a blue t-shirt with a white arrow?" "Yes" "Are you a racist?" "Yes" "Do I want to punch you in the face?" "Yes" "Are you Nigel?" "Yes"

Looks like Thomas has been kidnapped by Optimus Prime.

Friday Squid Blogging: Giant Squid Live in the Waters of Western Australia

We did it: Wales' largest party! Thank you to each and every one of you that put your trust in Plaid Cymru 💚 Now, let's gets on with it - for Wales 🫡🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Remembering all those who made VE Day possible! Back when this country fought against Fascism, rather than voting for it!

@plaidcymru.bsky.social "hope over division" - brillant way of recognising how tactical voting benefited Plaid in the Senedd elections.

the greens are the party with the best chance of beating reform labour supporters must accept that and get behind them rather than trying to split the vote

@plaidcymru.bsky.social llongyfarchiadau :)

Be a David Attenborough in world of Trumps, Farages, Musks, and Putins.

Onthe plus side, Reform have only actually won 2 constituencies.

After the first flurry of declarations Sandy's gone back to sleep

Seems fair. I'd like to follow suit.

Jeez. Welsh Labour has just been called a "smaller party"

I do not understand people

Welsh Labour’s Deputy First Minister Huw Irranca-Davies has secured a seat in Afon Ogwr Rhondda

Labour is having a "lib dem" moment in Wales.

Sorry Labour. I've only ever voted for you (since 1997) but the only way of keeping Reform out was to go for Plaid Cymru.

LinkedIn, what's the point in showing me a 2 day old post that was for an event that happened yesterday?

I love McKellen, I really do www.theguardian.com/film/2026/ma...

The UK waking up tomorrow and finding it has a severe case of racism

Me: Right, must get this PowerShell stuff done as quickly as possibly Also me: has to go back and capitalise the cmdlets in the right places because I can't leave them all in lowercase because that's wrong.

The UK has descended into total chaos in the lead up to tomorrow's elections. Nobody knows which bins to separate crisp packets and chocolate wrappers into. It's a disaster. Help us Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're our only hope.

I saw the same clip this evening. Also today i saw on X someone asking a rather unpleasant local independent candidate if there's someone else in his party she can vote for in her area. She has no idea she lives in the constituency he's standing in. The ignorance is astonishing

If You Tolerate This, Then Your Children Will Be Next. Taken verbatim from a poster put up by the Republicans fighting the Nationalists in the Spanish civil war. What happened there when the fascists won? Fascism rapidly spread in the rest of Europe. Their children were next.

To all the racist Welsh voters with their hand over the Reform box: you know your iconic Welsh band, Manic Street Preachers? They've spent their career warning about people like you. A Design For Life: "Libraries gave us power/ Then work came and made us free".

Could the Senedd try to discourage racist pensioners from moving to North Wales though? It might be a good move :)
