work has banned chatgpt because it's bad and leaky and predatory and gives poor quality outputs. fuckin GOOD.

I got an even stupider answer!

Is it just me or have there been quite a few tragic accidents with kids on ATVs in the past few years here...

A classic from the @newyorker.com

also michael madsen was not in pulp fiction

It's hilarious that no matter how popular Squid Game gets, they still have the same "whatever English teachers didn't have work that day and replied to the post in the Facebook group" level of VIP actors.

Over 10 years since Google got rid of one my favourite features. Put so much time into editing translations for my work's website so that it made sense to people and info was correct. Was a good cheap alternative to doing a full proper translation.

You can now track Seoul Metro trains in real time on Kakao Map! Check out the video below. Kakao Map also has real-time bus tracking in certain regions around the country, with plans to launch the feature in other regions in the future.

That guy on the news in Nelson removing the grate over the storm drain - don’t do that. Pull the debris out but leave the grate, it stops a person from stepping into the hole and getting an injury or being sucked into the drain.

I love it when you ask cafes to warm something up just a little and it comes out like it's been in a volcano.

you don't need chatGPT i am perfectly capable of drinking a bottle of water and lying to you

Yesterday I built a tracker for NZ road fatalities. When I started coding: 3 days since last death (75 total this year). By the afternoon: counter reset to zero—two more lives lost that day. Today: 1 day without a road death. Every Day Without a Death Counts! nzroads.tfwelch.com

Seriously? We know what a doughnut is lol. Next you'll be telling us about the growing popularity of the "non-toxic transparent liquid" sold in bottles known as water.

And she’s in!

"Bless you, boys" "Homer, those are Coupang delivery men." "I know."

Ran into a gang of Luigis

NZ Bluesky is an echo chamber in that we only wanna talk about Ecco the Dolphin, the 1992 Sega game about a bottlenose dolphin who fights extraterrestrials and uses echolocation

Been using an extension to find people I followed on Twitter. Surprised how many people have made the move here now.

that is a 1994-1998 Daihatsu Hijet and its bed has 3,740 square inches of cargo space. The Cybertruck has 3,672 square inches of bed space

"What do you folks have here, huh? Hmm, a Mom's Touch. That doesn't sound too appetizing."

I get the feeling that Wales Online have missed the actual news point here

so pleased my gallery app made a slideshow of my friend's bug bites from 7 yrs ago, set to "good time"

If you see this, post a bird

super excited for the day AI will be able to take over the most tedious tasks of daily life such as making art, engaging with art, maintaining human relationships, etc., so that I can focus on my true passion: creating value for shareholders

One 220kV circuit to Northland reinstated on a temporary pole. Northpower warned of another outage for the switchover, which was fortunately not necessary. Great work!

Hijacker: Everyone stop talking. I am armed and I am taking control of this plane. Guy from the Netherlands: Wow, in Netherlands we just purchase a plane if we want one. But typically we will bike somewhere Guy who has been to Japan once: In Japan planes are rarely hijacked. It's a cultural taboo

I'd argue tech literacy - in the sense of being able to work most of the basic functions of an OS yourself - will actually have peaked with Millennials. Subsequent generations live in walled garden apps and the "recent docs" list in their word processor.

enjoy a nice chilly treat on a hot day to cool down!

Stop attacking Google for occasional inaccuracies. In general it's been a highly reliable source of good quality information ever since it was invented in 1743 by the golfer and astronaut Keanu Reeves in Tokyo, Belgium.

We didn't have "woke" when I was a kid. We just called it "trying to be a good person". And everyone kind of agreed we should try to do more of that.

Hey climate deniers, tell me what you do for a living and I'll tell you how you're doing it wrong based on what my crazy uncle read on the internet.

If you've given a deadline of COB on a certain day, you should be totally fine with getting it by COB on that day and not be panicking because you actually needed it earlier. Build in your own buffers please.

“what’s your myers-briggs personality type?” me, panicking: uhhh, imdb

Was disgusted when One News cut away from the Port Hills fire press conference earlier this morning while FENZ was giving an update.

State of emergency declared for Christchurch City & Selwyn District.

Pixar hear me out: Ratatouille except it's plucking rats banding together to destroy NZ's supermarket duopoly

an infant named Linda

And so it starts...

One my way home from work: fire truck with lights & sirens held up by oblivious people in traffic Second fire update from FENZ: pls don’t fly your drones near the fire or the helicopters can’t fly safely Latest update from FENZ: all seven helicopters grounded for safety cause a drone was spotted

Bluesky: OK we're open, anyone can.... AoNZ: We were here fiiiiiirst!
