You might consider quitting Twitter altogether as have the BCS

It's good that you're on Bluesky but perhaps you could advertise that fact on your webpage, which still links to your Twitter account.

Slow progress on Heathrow’s third runway should be national concern, boss says Thomas Woldbye says major funding model decisions need to be taken if the airport is to meet government timetable

The slower the better as far as I'm concerned

Email from Google inviting me to use Gemini to 'reimagine' my day

How about 'no'?

I read it earlier and thought it a surprising change from the normal 'Net Zero! Ed Miliband!" moaning from the DT.

William and Kate Parker

Here's my great-grandfather William Parker, Richard's brother, with his second wife, Kate. Picture colourised by AI.

Criticism. Musk can give it but he can't take it, he folds like a wet paper towel.

The Telegraph readership wants to be angry, it's the only thing that makes them happy. So feeding them stories of 'fake' climate change or the cost of Net Zero is exactly what they want.

Memorial to Richard Parker

Much as I despise AI I have to admit that its ability to colour and restore old B&W photos is impressive. This is one of my great Grandfathers William Parker with his second wife Kate. William was the brother of Richard Parker, of whom much has been written.

A picture of a Victorian woman, colourised. Photographer named as S.Docking, 67 Northam Road, Southampton.

@historicalsoton.bsky.social Looking on the map for 67 Northam road it seems it no longer exists. Bombed in WW2?

This AI colourised photograph of my Great-Grandmother is impressive.

I would actually support the idea that people must consult a tide table before using AI

I ordered Christmas wine from them for decades. Not this year.

I retired during the pandemic (my employer, hit financially by COVID offered voluntary severance so I and hundreds of others applied and got it). I wonder how many my age (late boomers) also thought that it was the right time to retire?

The CCC's advice should be simple: 'Don't build it'.

The Daily Mail cosplaying as a quality newspaper.

Their reply to my cancellation e-mail

"I am sorry to hear that you feel this way. As a large company, we advertise through various channels, and I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

Sincerely,

I was an early twitter user. It took me a long time to realise that it's not a place for discussion but simply somewhere for people to air their prejudices.

I've deleted my account.

It's an important message but I could do without the syrupy music. Let us hear the people speak without music to tell us how we're supposed to feel. Just because you can add music to a video it doesn't mean that you should.

Cartoon, Elon Musk crying and demanding the EU be abolished. EU says 'Pay'.

Honestly I like Bluesky the way it is - peaceful. I don't want the big accounts on Twitter moving here and bringing drama with them. I was an early Twitter user but I deleted my account and don't miss it all, the people I follow are already here.

Thank you. Really interesting talk and very concerning conclusions.

Letter to the Climate Change Committee: engagement during Airports National Policy Statement review

You've probably seen this letter from the Heathrow Expansion Team to the Climate Change Committee. I hope the CCC do the decent thing and point out that no airport expansion can be consistent with Net Zero goals.

14% of my fellow Brits have a lot of confidence in Trump? Disappointing.
