“Another, and make it a double!” He said, sliding his glass toward the barman.

“Don’t you think you’ve had enough?”

The question obviously riled the disheveled patron, who locked eyes with the barman.

“My executive team asked me today how we can leverage AI as part of our quantum strategy,” he began. “We don’t even have an asset register.”

“My god. This one’s a triple, and it’s on the house.”

Sometimes I think it’s going to be the librarians who will save us all.

@mhoye I am the only one in the company who sits on the different helpdesk and frontline support group chats. Because that is where I'm gonna hear about us getting breached first. And I need them to be comfortable talking to me. I join the calls occasionally and I tell them my story. And they come to me and you would be surprised what I hear.

Very sorry to hear we have lost Udo Kier - a great actor with an incredible and wide ranging career

On the 4th October, 1936, the British Union of Fascists had planned a march to the East End of London.

Despite the petition of East Londoners, with 100,000 signatures over two days, the Home Office declined to ban the march. Authorities refused to allow a counter-march by the Ex-Servicemen's Movement Against Fascism, because the fascists had organised their march first.

On the day, around 3,000 fascists turned up for the march, protected by more than double that number in police.

The fascists and police were resisted by over ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND anti-fascists who erected barricades, chanting "They Shall Not Pass". Police attempted to dismantle the barricades and clear a path for the fascists, and were pelted with rotten vegetables, and the contents of chamber-pots thrown from upstairs residents.

There's a damn good reason why fascism had a hard time establishing itself in the UK; I'm pretty sure it wasn't the government nor the police.

TL;DR: Major insurers are seeking regulatory approval to exclude AI-related liabilities from corporate policies, citing concerns over the unpredictability of AI models’ outputs as too risky to insure. https://techcrunch.com/2025/11/23/ai-is-too-risky-to-insure-say-people-whose-job-is-insuring-risk/ #law #tech #legaltech ⚖️ 🤖 #autosum

obvious take, why didn't I think of this 😂

Microsoft recently introduced a feature in Windows called Copilot Actions, that allows AI agents to take actions on your PC on your behalf.

Microsoft have put quite a lot of thought into the security design of the feature, I’ve been looking at it.

But here’s a pop quiz. Microsoft say administrators can stop users enabling the feature. The quiz - specifically, how?

Edit: their wording is “will”, which may explain why I can’t find how. Which is a bit of a bummer for a feature already shipping.

You voted Leave? Idiot.
You think 33% should have a veto over 66%? Idiot.

In case you missed this - it's wonderful to be featured in the Border Telegraph article yesterday. Scotland's bookshops play a vital community and cultural role - now, maybe, more than ever, but these are challenging times...

I know we all love to criticize older generations, but in the 20th century if someone did a Nazi salute you could almost guarantee that a WW2 veteran would punch them in the head, and I think there was a great societal benefit to that.
