The worst of both worlds!

It sure is. And those laminated type ones make feel far too uncomfortable

I will harvest every last ray of sunshine I can

There's a growing school of thought that would suggest these phenomena are in fact related.

Quite happily entering my outdoor furniture era

I'm old enough to remember when Hinton predicted that AI would replace radiologists by 2021

For those who have never heard it, Michael Pementel articulates so well why it's such a powerful, immersive work "The abstract ambient nature of the music allows for no concrete form....The Disintegration Loops floods the listener with feeling."

A most ridiculous country really

8 years already? Christ.

Oh come on I was right on the money there:

That tracks. I’ve heard the same of other areas too.

This holds for my experience growing up in rural Offaly (Birr). Was in Birr during the blockade. It seemed very obvious that it was heavily astroturfed. General vibe was ‘who are these fools?’. Would stay the course. Fash-element wants us thinking in therms of an urban vs rural split.

It makes perfect sense. Think Real Gone meets Mezzanine.

Ultrasonic sensors are the same: Ping goes out the transmitter.
Reflects off things in the world.
Back in the receiver.
Distance calculated as function of delay between signals with ref to the speed of sound.
That reliance on the passage of time can cause all kinds of interesting problems.

Iran war: We spoke to the man making Lego-style AI videos that experts say are powerful propaganda

I told the BBC AI has enabled Iran to communicate with Western audiences more effectively than ever before - tools largely trained on Western data are creating "culturally appropriate" content "authoritarian countries wanting to target the West have lacked in the past". www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The fact that the blockade worked successfully for a few days is probably proof the CIA weren’t involved

Farming and haulage reps are talking with the gov to negotiate an end to protests which have evolved into blockades. The proto/crypto fascists are in the mix too with demands that would essentially reduce their tax bills and boost their profits, scrapping carbon tax etc… absolute gobshites.

A proto/crypto fascist element have inserted themselves and things have gone sideways as a result. the Gardai today had to lift a blockade on our only refinery.

Emergency services are at risk from shortages & vulnerable hospital users are missing healthcare appointments thanks to fash blockades

They can cut the price by dropping the tax % on fuel.

Essentially. There’s a cost of living crisis here that’s been worsened by Iran’s outrageously efficient response to the US/Israel attack.

It’s hitting farming and haulage industries particularly badly.

There’s a legit basis for protest BUT

Just gets better with age

It's not a very hot take but the scientific revolution didn't go far enough actually.

If it had modern AI discourse would look a lot different.
The religious element congregating around AGI would be taken far less seriously for instance.

Still is guy

Think Desire are openers on the Health & CB tour too.

Unforeseen side effect of the rise of Claude Code and OpenClaw has been the related surge in Obsidian.

Dark but critically important read.
