@cargobikeben @UllPetrus Please don't slander the beautiful JP/KR mini-truck, these things are beautiful creatures. If you drive a landrover/SUV in a big city you should be served an exile notice to go live in the countryside

Only journalist who read all the documents reaches the point all of the coverage should have been discussing

I read every document in the Musk vs Altman case and my takeaway is—'Heartbreaking: The Worst Person You Know Just Made a Great Point' https://t.co/HlCQUpUXJT

UK police continue to crack down on problem caused by bad policy instead of solving real crime like violence against women and bike theft 🫡

I wish there was instead of banning/nerfing developments like this, every 3 months the trick had to be shared across all teams so instead of Mercedes having an illegal engine for half of the season, everyone gets to go faster and the gap closes and we get 4x big innovation jumps

@jrswab They have an illegal compression ratio, but due to a technicality they can keep using it until June: https://t.co/R563k33bPf

I haven't taken a train up north in the last three years that wasn't delayed, partially or completely cancelled. Jfc

@CenturyOG @autosport This is pretty well documented, might have been better to Google than tweet

[Alexander Adams @AlexAdamsLDN]

@jondav1963 @2secondsTed @autosport Then so is moving the tape lol

i cant tell you why but the new iphone and pixels look so goofy, looks like a fake phone

I predict we are 2-5 years before the great SaaS crash - i don't know how many services tried to increase their costs by £2-20 this year with the only feature being "ai" but the consumer is going to catch on and mass-cancel, we are already seeing a return to piracy in media

@but_cyclists this is so funny

Tube union bosses are actually cycling advocates in disguise.

If the tube keeps striking, not only will cycling numbers increase so much that cars will lose more road space but we will also get automated tube and put more staff on the concourse level to stop petty crime

[Alexander Adams @AlexAdamsLDN]

Support the unions!

This is kind of what I imagine when I see the anti emobility bots posting about how dangerous they're making our streets

It's weird that if we increase LTN's and 20mph streets we don't also increase the speed of the motorway, you could buy a lot of sentiment from this segment by packaging changes in a sandwich.

@JamesTimmins I remain skeptical and optimistic all in one - I was there for bitcoin in 2008, I worked in VR in 2014 and there are a bunch of loud people always screaming about a paradigm shift.

I think it's healthy to ask what were we doing before this and realistically how much better is it

[Alexander Adams @AlexAdamsLDN]

@dndkillaz @but_cyclists I don't think any cyclists hate motorists, they just want to stay alive and reduce fatalities lol

[Alexander Adams @AlexAdamsLDN]

@dndkillaz @but_cyclists Isn't it like 3-6% of commuters cycle to work? Surely many of them are vital for the country and would be a major disruption if they couldn't get to work.

Can the roads take another 6% of the population on them?

Like honest what the fuck is your argument lmao

[Alexander Adams @AlexAdamsLDN]

AI is hitting the same wall VR did imo

[Alexander Adams @AlexAdamsLDN]

Almost certain GPT5 is just "thinking" is users being put in a queue despite paying for Plus, it's not smarter its just dumber when quick and now you queue for 4o level intelligence

[Alexander Adams @AlexAdamsLDN]

@WarClandestine It's just great to have them back on it, I don't think it's that deep - doing trump again without me mackey whilst referencing old episodes with sadam and satan has been great
