Ketan's new report puts such a fine point on the incredible greenwashing value to big tech companies of lumping *all data-driven prediction or decision software,* some of which has real climate benefits, under the umbrella term "AI," which many people associate with language models such as ChatGPT.

So my disorganised backside has loads of work to do, soldering, wiring and getting the new scoreboard ready.

That's why I decided I wanted to learn how to use Blender and mate a little 3D animation of my logo instead.

Give the lad a like and subscribe to a genuinely original and hilariously funny podcast. Then reverse your car and beep your horn while shouting 'That's a #GAP,M'

My dog was at the front room door whining to be let out.

I get up and open the door to let him out and he immediately turns round and steals my spot on the sofa.

Bruce can be a real dick sometimes.

Those nice people over at Meta might want to wind their fucking necks in too.

Facebook feed suddenly full of Python tutorials just when I'm starting to mess about with Python?

Google at least have the excuse I was looking for stuff like that, I wasn't searching for anything on Facebook.

He'll beat the rap, zero case to answer, but they'll make him take the ride.

Watching YouTube when you're not logged in throws up some bizarre recommendations.

Never get less than twelve hours sleep

Never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city

Never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body

Now you stick with that, everything else is cream cheese.

I'm a little bit under the weather so I've holed up on my sofa and treated myself to a brand new video game: Fallout New Vegas.

Granted, it's nearly 16 years old but I've never played any of the Fallout games and if, God forbid, this dangerous bout of man flu claims me I don't want that regret.

Imagine if you were feeling low and organised a men's mental health walk and then no one turned up.

You would be gutted and it would be awful for your own personal men's mental health.

I was going to organise one but this has just pure put me off tbh

Lot of people worried about going to the World Cup in America now but as long as you don’t do anything completely crazy like help a woman up who’s been pushed over then you have nothing to worry about and hopefully won’t be executed in the street. Enjoy it! ⚽️

It wasn't that long ago that they were on 60 something a year with a whopping expenses budget.

The expense scandal happened, one MP went to jail and the solution was to pay them more and *ever so slightly* reduce the expenses, all while voting against wage increases for Dr's nurses etc.

People don’t talk enough about how fucking boring he is.

Should all Children be home-schooled?

With Nick Helm.

Very good.

It does seem to be like playing chess with a pigeon.

Just found out that you can't fast forward the adverts whilst watching ITV on delay.

Literally 1984.

A marvellous start to the day, smashing into a pothole on a dark B-road and fitting the space saver in the freezing cold.

I can laugh about it now though. Honest.

Does this scupper or enhance her chances of joining Reform?

Oof. I had a bloke i really liked at work who came out with "The thing about the theory of evolution is that is just a theory. Obviously it's all made and designed by God."

Then he started wanging on about immigration.

That put stopper on it.

*Raises bat, points to the pavilion, goes back to retake guard and carry on*

As a former cricketer who didn't make many 50s, this feels quite good.

Marion man allegedly burns down home to get rid of 'squirrel problem' A Marion County man has been arrested and charged with arson after he allegedly set his home on fire in an attempt to get rid of squirrels.

Mate, if you’re going to commit second degree arson, at least squirrel your cocaine away somewhere before you start.

For the first time in a long time, I'm breaking out some physical media.

I haven't used my PS4 for a good 5 years now but it'll certainly do for a blu-ray player.

Is that a... scary duck?

Next two are going to be off the Portal 2 video game. I'm thinking these on different parts of the wall because it's clever and like they're portals or something.

(You'll have to click them to see them properly, thumbnails cropped probably)

What else is on the wall? These two.

I'm rather pleased with this now it's up on my office wall.
