This is how I know we’re nowhere near close to AGI. Making shit up, then telling the truth about making shit up — humans would never do that. See, I want it to make shit up, and then when caught, blame it on Deborah in accounting.

Anyone seen a Hipster recently? Did they all die out?

Motonormativity www.msn.com/en-gb/news/w... About as bad as it gets. People driving into deers resulting in their own deaths is framed as 'deers killing people'. @ianwalker.bsky.social

Come for a ride on the Post Office Underground Railway! behind the scenes / documentary, of Mail Rail ...

Autonomous vehicles? They're so last century... If you don't aready know about Mail Rail and how amazing it was, check out Geoff's latest vid. In fact, if you do already know about it, check out the video anyway.

The early acquisition of British Sign Language (BSL) “could yield positive economic returns”, according to a new study commissioned by the British Deaf Association (BDA) - with positive estimates stating society would earn £14 for every pound spent.

“As a mum and a wheelchair user, pavement parking puts me and my children in danger every day. I don’t understand why drivers think they can block pavements — they’re for pedestrians.” - Aideen, campaigner Join our campaign against pavement parking https://bit.ly/4hWpLxM

Wagon Wheels were bigger back then.

*So* many memories...

Gosh, after a seven year absence, my friend @dananddanfilms.bsky.social is back! I mean - i'm thrilled that Dan is back, but i've never much liked Dan to be honest. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7V1K...

The CURRENT sitting MP for Clacton earns £511,000 as a presenter for GB News and took £281,000 as a brand ambassador for Direct Bullion. So maybe sit this one out, you rancid herring.

Are you not posting anything about the match today, @harlequinsrugby.bsky.social ?

Just notice that @cycle.travel has a night time mode as well as paved only. Not seen these before on a route planner and they're very nice to see.

How soon will they ban Andrew Harnik of Getty from the White House

Half Man Half Biscuit fans, take note. #HMHB

Being a pedestrian is grim. I'm being active. Not producing any pollution. Yet I have to lobby day in, day out for this to become much better @livingstreets.bsky.social @tahiralimp.bsky.social

Elon Musk is once again inciting violence on British streets because the government has taught him there are literally no consequences for doing so. They even carry on using his far-right social network to promote government policy as he does it. The absence of backbone is *astounding*.

New VIDEO! Britain's newest station is open ...

I think any story about Trump's autocracy should be mostly about the people and institutions who failed to stop it. This guy isn't a political genius, everything else just happens to be rotten. 'Toddler Consolidates Power In Household' is a story about incompetent parents, not shrewd maneuvering

Parking for dozens of restaurantgoers while the street is only roughly 3 m / 10 ft wide #Utrecht

When was the last time you had to change the fuse in a plug? Just realised I don't think I've done it in about 20 years. I do know where my stash of fuses is, and it's in the loft, not easily accessible. Maybe modern circuit breakers mean the supply is cut off before a fuse could ever blow?

The fact that people are allowed to store their cars in the street is really weird - after all, a car is an individual's own private property and their responsibility. I can't think of a single other item you can store in public in this way.

Tell me you didn’t ask anyone in Scotland about your product and without telling me you didn’t ask anyone in Scotland about your product name…

I reckon there's more to this than we're being told. I mean, /why/ did the Parish Council replace Mr. Hanton, and who did they replace him with?

The Greens requested an interview on the Laura Kuenssberg Show with Zack Polanski when he was elected leader, but were denied, with a promise to interview him during Green conference instead. This was then scrapped citing the Manchester synagogue attack. Polanski is both Jewish and from Manchester

Peacehaven: Fire at East Sussex mosque probed as 'hate crime'

This isn't true. Patricia Routledge was 60, not 50 when she did keeping up appearances. She also hadn't done Shakespeare on stage recently. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrici... Oh, and 17 February 2024 - her 95th birthday - wasn't a Monday, it was a Saturday. Stopping misinformation starts with you!

No. For even if the government cannot recover all its damages and costs here, this case is still a signal to current and potential suppliers that it is willing to enforce it contractual rights. And that is very valuable. Many government suppliers do not believe the government will ever do this.

Hi @npr.org! We worked late tonight putting together this handy pocket guide! It doesn't address road design issues, but if we're going to educate road users, we should include drivers. It's the size of a folded business card. Print it, fold it, put it in your wallet!

I've finally updated my Request Stops map! We're DOWN from 135 to 113. Who want to check for errors? 😀 - All Greater Anglia ones removed! - Shakespeare Line ones, removed! - Wales lost a few, but Scotland is the same? - is Plymouth Dockyard still request? - And what about Ferryside and Kidwelly?

Yeah man we should really fight back by staying on X

Discworld QOTD, from Night Watch

My mom called me last night about the Kimmel firing, saying "This is how Hitler got started!" I quickly responded, "By firing the late night tv hosts?" Turns out, mom was right.
