Apparently they’re sitting on some incendiary historical evidence about Panorama reporting fake news back in 1957.

How many times have I seen this 1970s Public Information Film about polystyrene tile fires and not spotted the glaringly obvious 'Mr and Mrs Arnold Finney'/Arnolfini gag? Durr...

Textbook.

Picture of the gaudy gold excrescences attached to the door of the White House Oval Office, with the sign reading 'The Oval Office' evidently printed out on sheets of A4 stuck up with Blutak. And we've added another one reading 'No Gurlz'.

True. I may not have thought this through fully.

It’d be good if they kept stripping names and stuff away until he had no name at all. Nothing. And him ending up with a completely smooth face like the fella out of the old photographs in Sapphire and Steel.

Back to the Edge: The inside story, with rare RT photos, of one of the greatest TV dramas of them all Actor Ian McNeice digs deep into Edge of Darkness – 40 years old but still hailed by critics and viewers as a masterpiece – and Radio Times celebrates by mining its picture archive.

Paul Williams (left) and Toby Jones (right) looking only marginally unalike.

Just adding my name to the list of people who might want to see a biopic about singer/songwriter Paul Williams starring Toby Jones.

Victorian drawing of a blindfolded man with long black hair and a tight suit with red boots prancing around a stage littered by eggs.

Baron Nathan, the celebrity dance teacher of the 1850s who danced the hornpipe blindfolded, surrounded by eggs. There's something SO malevolent about this image. It's powerfully frightening.

Quite like to see a team on Bargain Hunt blow their entire £300 budget, including big spend on three records from the antique shop's vinyl crates.

The app Preview on Mac OS Tahoe showing a PDF spread where the corners of each page have been rounded so you are unable to view the entire content.

Argh! Mac OS Tahoe's push to round every corner that you see on screen includes the corners of PDF pages INSIDE its Preview app. And you can't turn the feature off. I know the document won't print with these little nibbles taken out of the edges, but still. Bit rubbish, innit? Back to Acrobat...

The Fonz, with a thumb for a head and two heads where his thumbs should be.

Morning!

Norma!

The cast of TV sitcom Cheers, Cliff, Coach, Carla, Sam, Diane and Norm, but they're all been quickly faceswapped with Cher's face. The title above reads 'Chers'.

Experiment successful.

Old man yells at iCloud.

“Didn’t like some of the numbers in that spreadsheet you’ve been opening so much this year and changed them for you. Not going to say which ones.”

Calendars are so BORING! You’re now going to the hygienist EVERY DAY next month! Hooray!

The post install screen for Mac OS Tahoe showing the new summarise notifications feature. At the bottom a disclaimer reads “This is a beta feature. Summaries may contain errors”

A close up on the phrase “Summaries may contain errors”

Just installed OS Tahoe.
“Oh hai, AI.”

Fab news! Well done/deserved x

Lovely stuff.

Candidate’s empty artist page on Spotify.

We’ve sold out on Spotify! They’ll have to order some more stock.

A fallen log, looking a little bit like a baby dragon.

Great log dragon o’ the wood.

A page from a collection of John Keats’s poems with the playground rhyme ‘Harty Farty’ photoshopped at the top of it. Omnes: “Harty Farty had a party All the farts were there - Tutti Fruity did a beauty And they all went out for air.”

One of Keats’s finest.

“Our AI data centre will create 250 jobs until it works out a way to make 200 of them redundant.”

The creation of 250 jobs doesn’t seem like a huge gift back to the community that’s going to be housing this boiling behemoth.

I’m surprised that Musk hasn’t built a huge AI server farm here already, solely dedicated to help him defeat level 183b of Path of Exile 7.

A map of north east London showing the huge William Girling and King George’s reservoirs in close proximity to Loughton.

I mean if you going to put a pin in a map for where to flatten land and build a boiling hot server farm.
