Ah, nice. I have a Wera ratchet screwdriver and it’s nice kit

I just moved all my photos from Google to Ente to get them out of the US… How’s Euria?

Which brands please?

For how long, I wonder

Perhaps. However, we have to acknowledge that there’s a price to be paid for this - particularly an environmental price - and it’s not the householder who pays that price. If where we lived didn’t have consequences for other people then it wouldn’t be an issue. But when these decisions lock in urban sprawl, car dependency and excess emissions, they become everybody’s business

I love Dinosaur Comics. For anyone just discovering this, there are SO MANY for you to catch up on

Reform support has slowly but steadily been dropping for months now. Is it because their supporters are dying off, or because their supporters can’t tell the difference between Reform and Restore? Who can say? But Reform have peaked and are now fading. Don’t present them as inevitable

The “e” isn’t relevant here, and I’d worry that drawing attention to it risks setting micromobility back

I’d rather not - we’re then into copyright issues

It’s only a very short letter, but it’s good. They argue that AGI claims are based on shifting the definition of AGI to something easier to meet, that advocates rely on hitting artificial (gameable) benchmarks rather than dealing with novelty, and that providing answers to questions doesn’t mean they’re doing cognition as we’d normally understand it, especially as LLMs don’t express doubt (they don’t say this, but I’ll add: this is because they can’t do metacognition: they can’t think about their own thought processes, as we can)

The best place to hide drugs would be up another dog’s arse. Nobody is going to be suspicious when the sniffer dog shows an interest

Lovely pictures

There’s a whole section on social media. That’s where they discuss Mastodon and W, among others

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST CHATBOTS DON’T KNOW ANYTHING. STOP ASKING THEM QUESTIONS AND THINKING THEIR ANSWERS ARE ANYTHING MORE THAN WORD ASSOCIATION BASED ON THINGS PEOPLE HAVE WRITTEN IN THE PAST for fuck’s sake

Ah, but the public also want cheap houses and yet these don’t appear. So we have to ask why the public only get certain cheap things and not others

In addition, handing the task over to a chatbot means you learn nothing about what makes a good training plan, and how to judge whether the one you get is doing what it needs to, from a physiological point of view.

I’ve been experimenting with Here Wego. It’s not quite Google Maps, but it’s not bad and has a lot of nice features like live public transport info. Perhaps the thing I like least is that its information about businesses seems to come from TripAdvisor, which is a shame because I find that site a bit unreliable

The entitlement that comes with motoring. It’s not the council’s job to store people’s property for free

Fair comment. On my fantasy mayoral system there’d be no storing cars on public land, so the space issue might be moot
