Never really sure if they put the images above or below the caption.....

You can do insane, I mean just INSANE things when you cheat and let the Arm in a CDFJ do all the heavy lifting #atari2600

techcrunch.com/2026/10/25/t... US proposes cyan lights for autonomous cars? RUBBISH! Should use a cylon/kitt stripe.

I think my issue with the whole AI debate is fractionally more nuanced than AI BAD. its Good: help me investigate and help ME understand this Bad: investigate this and understand it for me.

I guess duolingo runs php.

Doing our bit

Heaven help me, some of this slopcore is rather good. I think Katy Perry should be feeling threatened. (Did they train on her or has she always been AI?)

Cpc 472. Yes... of course I'd love one. But I thonk this chap is being a mite punchy. 1500 euro...... ebay.io/m/oHgBR6

I'm good.

This is professional work attire. (And a gift - a ukrainian colleague was sufficiently impressed by my ukringlish pun he made me a tshirt!)

I laughed

youtu.be/3TNpOD6bov8 This. Is. FABULOUS. Needs sound.

Let's celebrate the 25th anniversary of the GOAT sell-side research report!

I think the office across the road ks making a cry for help.

😢 BBC News - Margaret Hamilton, whose software helped land Apollo 11 on the Moon, dies at 90 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A random one I found in the attic while looking for something else!

Lmao arxiv.org/pdf/2404.00732

XOR NO MORE! Removed about 50% of per-screen cost from each dizzy screen, switched it to synched on flyback (no more slowdown, all screens fit in budget now), and swapped XOR drawing for memory-backed opacity......

Well..... crap.. I don't appear to have a single blank c90 in the house. Not one.

Spent quite a lot of time looking at the CPC version of Dizzy. The biggest speedup by far has been pre-filtering the object table per room, though there are several graphical ones too. Might be able to get it to flyback locked instead of just run-at-max-and-vary......

Anyone ACTUALLY restored a sticking/squealing tape? My original CPC Dizzy has lost it's mojo. I see reccomendations about using silicon lube, but also warnings not to! :( @breakintoprogram.co.uk ?

What with all the flock debacle going on over in the US, I do wonder to what extent UK average speed camera sets (anpr by definition) are mineable. We have a (generally) much better national relationship and trust with the police as a country (though of course issues exist).. and no VC involvement.

Girl at work just described care bears as "wow this is like old white people labubu"

Public pressure works. The Cornell 7 drugged and raped a student for seven hours. They offered her up for “free” to their entire frat house and the school made them write an essay about it. They must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Jane Doe’s courage will help secure justice:

No cheating. Share the last photo of the sky from your camera roll.

Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

Followed a link, ended up on the other place, and I can't get this advert out of my head.

NGL, one thing LLMs in language are good for are the questions I wouldn't bother a teacher with....

Oh god #controlresonant physical release is 15th oct. Digital 24th sep. This is going to test my physical obsession. May have to go offline for a month.

AI generated porn? That's the real choade bearing problem.

Ok I can't stand slop but this is cute.

This is insanely cruel. #flareon #ctf #control

Wow. This sounds like a great idea. If only a country I know had had this kind of deal, it would have been insane to walk away from it.

I never studied linguistics properly, I've only just discovered the clitic. My wife will be so happy.

Linguistic twitch that niggles. Elision comes from Latin. But Apocope comes from Greek.

Question : Am I the only person who had to give up on metaphor:refantazio because I got so pissed off with being told about the age of a new king drawing near?

Really looking forward to the 2030 release of Starcraft:ghost

I have never seen so many astronauts in one place. (And a WHOLE LOT of fox jumpers!) #comiccon winchester #rocky These guys were particularly dedicated.....

Ummmmm isnt this how independence day started?

👁️ Researchers found LG TVs logging plain text transcripts in standby, mapping every device in the house, & feeding it to LG's ad arm Unplug the internet and it saves files until network restored. LG says its TVs don't record conversations. Evidence begs to differ. 216 million in homes /Braiinsforge

I think I've got this Nextdoor: complaining about dog poo and drivers to people who aren't there and aren't listening. WhatsApp groups: complaining about bonfires and strangers to people who aren't there and aren't listening. Good to have a clear delineation.

Once again I am asking where my Steorn Orbo is.

#LogLoads64 The Goonies Still one of the best "kids" movies ever made, how can the #C64 game hold up? Well, it's an arcadey platformer that isn't without its charm. I just enjoyed it. For a 1984/5 game it has bags of nice features and looks and plays pretty well. Better than a lot of the time.
