Love seeing kinects pop up in unexpected places. Last place I saw one is when I bought a mattress, it was part of the set up that tells what mattress suits you best

I remember being taught that they were basically posh hobbyists, so it's been weird seeing everyone go nuts over them the last few years

Never been more excited to read a review

Jim Sanborn has a secret [FREE TO READ] The sculptor of the CIA’s ‘Kryptos’ has spent decades guarding its last secret code. What happens when he’s gone?

“The thing about AI is it’s lying, it’s telling you what you want to hear,” Sanborn said. His voice rose. “These people are so arrogant, they so believe that they have absolutely cracked it because AI has told them they cracked it, congratulations.” on.ft.com/41aGHcP

I guess I should reserve judgment until seeing it, but only if I can get in free, there's no way I'm paying £30 or whatever it is. Insane that you can see the real things for free at NPG but this is so expensive

Me and Zoe had a rare listen to Front Row (because the Lowry was also featured) and caught your review! Not surprised at how bad this is, slightly surprised how much the presenter liked it... People seem so easily impressed by something that's basically just a bunch of big jpegs

Just had to dispose of my Fiorentina shirt as the Nintendo logo was peeling off. Now frantically searching for a Sevilla SNES shirt for a reasonable price...

Electric Dreams at Tate Modern is a fun show. Suffers a bit from too much irrelevant stuff and info overload, but more than enough good stuff to make up for it.

dril tweet reading: turning a big dial taht says "Racism" on it and constantly looking back at the audience for approval like a contestant on the price is right

Big brain geniuses at the labour party running the dril playbook
