@SweetSummerSN just seeing that now is super scary - if only you could tell me it was AI generated.

@kapilansh_twt basic

@PakErot @BellaBaddie__ yeah mon-fri fine, but weekends and vacation needed

[Nigel Jones @planetf1]

this is attention to detail.. so it's kinda obvious but interesting to see..

fun fact: tijdens de keynote hakt Apple een stukje 3k, 4k, 5k en 6kHz eruit wanneer ze "Siri" zeggen, zodat niet iedereens HomePods terug beginnen te praten 🗣️🚫

@messedupfoods to leave - but then I wouldn't eat in the US.

It happens here too - and pressure on increasing tips is there, but I'd far prefer a model where tips are very much the exception 'on top' not expected or usual.

This does happen in some countries whilst us is at opposite extreme

@AvonandsomerRob yes, for sure. neighbour already has one. benefit from excellent insulation and already run boiler at low temps so should be a good fit.

@AvonandsomerRob We have a BYD Dolphin (alongside a Tesla) and it's great - rather like it. I nearly went for a BYD Seal which wasn't quite there (one pedal driving).

@Synchronicity34 have we suddenly gone back in time 10 years? feels like it from those statements they made lol.

@codevsdev when I started in the 80s it was books, TV (in early 80s the UK government, schools, and BBC did a MASSIVE push on this), and of course magazines. Plus local computer clubs

[Nigel Jones @planetf1]

Ugh garage and reform are disgusting. Very specific choice of words especially around migrants (including legal) and utterly stimulating division. Never thought I’d see the day of politicians being this disgraceful

@visitnorthyork why is the knife and fork the wrong way around?

@mitsuhiko I’m still finding 1password works well

[Nigel Jones @planetf1]

classic ‘do as we say not do as we do’. They are all hypocrites, and utterly dangerous for this country

From the bloke who hasn’t made it into his place of work for the last 77 parliamentary votes…

Needed a small footprint llm proxy to surf free models for simple tasks at home -> https://t.co/3Kbv6GkchC . tiny executable, rust, fallback chains on rate limits. #llm

@MarvabluesF1 @jbcourt when I was growing up it was always said farmer’s kids (rolling in the dirt with animals etc) were often the most healthy ….

iPhone 16 pro max failed doing a ‘restore’ on macOS finder (4046). Now device is undetectable in finder, apple configurator (2 systems), apple devices (win). Multiple cables. Quite shocked it’s fragile, had expected more with official apple software,.,.

[Nigel Jones @planetf1]

Really, reform don’t want this shared. oK will remember that

[Will Black 🍓🍄 @WillBlackWriter]

People are saying that Nigel Farage has asked Elon Musk to ban people from X for sharing this clip of him attacking his crony Robert Jenrick.

Surely free speech champion Nigel Farage isn't that petty? But just in case, THIS is the video that you mustn't download or share

Obama stock trades as president: 0.

Biden stock trades as president: 0.

Trump stock trades in Q1 2026 alone: 3,600+.

When do we all just admit he is a grifter and half of the American population got tricked into thinking he'd help anyone but himself and his inner circle?

@DivyanshT91162 I’ve been building more tools for myself - as well as using other rust-developed (or at least efficient, compiled) tools from others. the differences in footprint - ram/cpu can be amazing.

[Nigel Jones @planetf1]

@Tironianae the failure here is surely that of government, and oversight/regulation whether through incompetence or corruption
