IT'S FRIDAY! WHOOP WHOOP!!!

I'm not back properly online until next week, but wanted to get a quick Friday dance out. This week we're cheering on all those continuing to protest & fight for something better. All power to you, stay safe, & have a good weekend if you possibly can

The fact that Reeves & Mortimer's entire televisual output isn't readily streamable is a national disgrace, and should be subject to a Parliamentary discussion.

@GossiTheDog I worked tech support long enough to have an idea of what people DO say to their PCs already...

Hopefully the poor LLM doesn't take it personally, but some folks are going to have a heck of a context window issue. 😆

I wrote about what it was like to go online for the first time 30 years ago. How hard and complicated it seemed, and then how amazing this entirely new world was. Including some extracts from my 1995 diary.

Give me liberty or give me root.

My dream job is to run a cozy little bookshop, but without worrying about having to succeed as a small business. So basically a money laundering front where I get to read

I remember the first time I saw the internet on a Windows 95 machine. Back when text was in Times New Roman and everything was in HTML tables.

I asked, “Who checks that this information is correct?”—meaning, who fact-checks this stuff? The answer was: no one. Anyone could publish anything.

It felt like somewhat of a weakness and I thought that it would likely be exploited by bad actors. And reader, I was correct.

If you are about to reply saying ‘no Kevin, AI is the future, you can’t put the genie back in the bottle’… that was a great talking point in 2022, which wasn’t true then either.

Generative AI is a group wank of dying men onto soggy tweets. There’s no genie and no bottle, eventually people are going to go ‘…oh, this isn’t really a game changer is it?’. No, it’s just people trying to monetise copyright theft.

Productivity increases from AI are like teenage sex. Everybody is talking about it. Not that many are experiencing it.

Mastodon welcome to the family Wash and Mal. They join my other two, Inara and Kaylee, in December. Yes I'm collecting the entire crew of Serenity.#catsofmastodon #mainecoon #kitten

In public treat axis nationals or quislings coldly.
