I'm laying claim, here and now, to "The Shit of Theseus".

So nice, this little wildflower area that’s been created in front of Euston Station. More of this please London.

I dunno about the longevity of this thing. Number three looks like it has just gone also.

I don’t generally approve of dissing other people’s musical tastes. Each to their own. But I’ll make an exception for these guys.

The guy running the “Personal Transformation Session” in ep1 of Adam Curtis’ Shifty is so similar to Lester Beck from The Day Today. I wonder if @aiannucci.bsky.social et al had seen that footage back in the day.

“Insufficiently funny” is an underused critique in comedy.

There is Lego and there are Lego bricks. There is no Legos.

Can Britain create a Google? No need…

Entirely possible

Aside from its inability to automatically resize the many thumbnail permutations of images needed for different outlets/platforms, it was very good.

Niche posting… appreciated by this 49-year-old.

14 years out. The radio anxiety dreams still happen with annoying regularity.

I have the Withings Scanwatch Nova. It’s great. Use a Garmin for stuff like cycling as it’s bit more capable than Apple (e.g. Ant+ sensor capability)

Brown Eyed Girl - Van Morrison. Instant skip.

The other foundational document - of course - being the values of the Carphone Warehouse.

We don’t have a written constitution in the U.K. We organise around a different source of values.

Surely the joke is that you don’t need to increase illumination proportionate to the ‘audience’. You wouldn’t ask for a lightbulb for eight people.

Shocker (from Ofcom 2024 report)

There's a general lack of knowledge/incuriosity about safeguards available on mobile devices / applications. Toss your kid the car keys and there's a fair chance they'll have a crash.

Minutes earlier… youtu.be/KryOYburlFI?...

If successful, will Joby float?

Too late for me. Although I did have three doses of it a couple of years ago as late vaccination is still thought to mitigate the symptoms somewhat. Process was difficult as NICE guidelines don’t extend to prescribing to folks in their late 40s. I ended up just paying for it.
