Google's take on the mood of a nation?

VR! wow, literally never even tried it

I'm on one called "Wrong about AI/Bitcoin/VR probably other things" which is definitely good

I don't know about that, but I entered an arm-wrestling contest in a bar in San Francisco.

Cool cool cool

Woah

Next level enshitification

Right I've been working and I ain't reading all that. We still fucked, I presume?

Not the gritty open world "reimagination" i'd hoped for, where the farmer gets sucked into exploring the dark back story of why those chickens are so KFCKing big, who engineered them and how the hen can even fly.

I don't believe so

This is good - yes have one. Where I work at the moment, there are three and that goes as well as you can imagine. One for citizens, one for "experts" one for (and designed "with") judges. Only the citizen one is good

wow ... that is ... wow

@timnitgebru.blacksky.app already schooled us on this being the direct lineage of eugenicists.

Use a hoover

Man: I’m depressed. Arsenal have bottled it.
Doctor: Treatment is simple. Go watch Keir Starmer get yelled at in the House of Commons. That should lift your spirits.
Man: But doctor… I am-
Doctor: I know who you are.

Been offline most of the day. Sounds like that went super well, good good.

What sank Johnson in the end was not so much what he'd done but that his MPs got sick of being sent out to defend it.

They heard pervert glasses and decided to design to that brief

I'm afraid it all stinks. You only had to be paying scant notice to Mandelson's decades long career, punctured with sackings, scandal and sleaze, to know that he was unfit for re-appointment to a Government position. And knowing any of it, you'd ask to see the vetting report at the very least.

And we appear to be back to "knowledge is porridge" as the main driver for government

This should have been on a list of tory policies that were thrown out in the first month, rather than ... whatever this is

Remember when they explicitly said how wrong using people's personal data was in Batman.

Starmer is *still* furious? What a fucken drama queen.

Wow ok I think I am at a minimum 70 millionth in line for this, so it's way down my to-to list

Palantir unveils new mascot to accompany release of position statement.

An ancient artifact on display in a museum: a clear glass vessel in the shape of a dove, mostly full of a clear liquid, with a small heap of pinkish substance in the bottom, and dark substances in the head and tail.

Roman blown-glass unguentarium or balsamarium in the shape of a dove, found at Rovasenda near Vercelli in N Italy, sealed since its manufacture about 1900 years ago, containing the remains of a cosmetic and the liquid in which it was once suspended. One would have snapped off the tail to open.
