Map of Western Europe with a purple dot for every EV charging point. An invisible line, down the Greenwich Meridian at zero degrees splits the map into very dense in the west, and very sparse in the east

Map glitch? Or not much demand for EV charging points east of Greenwich?

Scary thing is, I *WOULD* say I don't think this map, despite its many bizarre tells, is shit enough to be AI. But AI gets less shit every few minutes, so this probably *IS* AI. And I can only tell cos I'm a massive map nerd. We are, like, weeks away from AI not being shit enough for ANYONE to tell!

The Amstrad version was a semitone higher, but otherwise exactly the same.

Well, *I* remember it, and I played it loads. But only cos I liked the music. The game was rubbish.

This phenomenal bit of 8-bit music is wasted on an Amstrad game from 1987 that no one remembers.

Don’t know if this still works, but when I used to get confused about news stories, I’d check Newsround.

Instead of building massive servers that require lots of wasteful energy to cool down, couldn’t we put millions of little servers in living rooms all over Britain to replace our radiators?

While we’re at it, “creatures crawl in search of blood, to terrorise y’all’s neighbourhood” only rhymes if, like Rod Temperton who wrote Thriller, you’re from Grimsby.
