Finally pushed another update to https://t.co/8FuUyHf44D

You can now filter search results with a date range, and sort by best match, oldest first, and newest first.

Up next is to combine all results from the same episode into a popup and then add multi page results.

[Ben @bfayers_]

First mini-"update" is pushed to https://t.co/8FuUyHewf5

All episode transcripts are now a result of running every episode through OpenAI's Whisper model.
These transcripts are more accurate and not censored like YT ones.

Working on adding premiums next, then date filters

@MaxPatten Celebrating the loss of competition is just ridiculous. You WANT competition, everybody should want competition. It's good.

@HalenMattison In Europe Renault is making a new Twingo for under £20k. Not sure why Tesla gave up trying to make a really cheap one.

[Ben @bfayers_]

@MaxPatten What is going on, on the roads over there?! I paid £900 for a year of insurance with my Model 3 in the UK and that's considered high because I'm on the wrong side of the pricing vs age curve still.

@AsburyTha1st @KiwaSpotter Heights on ADSB data are Above Mean Sea Level. If you correct for local pressure and airfield elevation it's about 0.

[Flightradar24 @flightradar24]

ADS-B reports altitude above mean sea level at standard pressure in 25 ft increments. The lowest reported value as the 777 was above the runway was 950 feet. Adjusting for local pressure and field elevation gives an altitude of approximately 0 feet. 👇 https://t.co/EXTsQhXhvn

@bartlettsboy @MartinSLewis Interesting point worth noting regarding the "issues" at gas stations:
https://t.co/m8dyx7n5un

[Robin Hawkes @robhawkes]

I'll be surprised if all the gas plant outages today are really due to the temperature…

We'll soon see how many of them happen to find that missing output again and are instructed to turn up via the balancing system, at much higher cost.

Same thing happened last year with various gas plants causing a tight grid by deliberately holding back capacity. It was a gamble but it paid off handsomely for them.

I'll absolutely be digging into the data once it's available…

[Ben @bfayers_]

@ahmedelt99 @maxvcalloway I'm guessing they mean it'll be lots of tweaks but maybe you won't be able to see them? We know there's weight cut and maybe suspension, etc...

Idk doesn't really make sense, I bet some of it will be obviously visible if this is meant to be the "biggest package" this year.

[Ben @bfayers_]

@petersharding @dcuthbert Highway code wording is specifically around "engine running" so definitely not

@TheDryhtscipe Boxt/Heatable? They always have terrible prices, I used an AC company local to me and paid around ~£1600 for a 2.5kW Samsung unit last year.

[Ben @bfayers_]

@AndrewSabisky Well NESO accepted bids from Octopus at £349/MWh between 18:00 and 19:00 under DFS so I guess it had to be go that high (on wholesale cost at least)

[Ben @bfayers_]

@UKWX_ On your last shift could you cause some massive thunderstorms in the East of England, we always get left out.

[Ben @bfayers_]

@jonburkeUK Not only is it not banned, it actually got EASIER to install as of 29/05/25.
Since then installing a combined ASHP capable of providing cooling is allowed under permitted development (previous had to be heat only for PD). Detached properties can have two outdoor units under PD.

[Ben @bfayers_]

@RomainHedouin Yeah looks like they added it in 4.58

@RoamingNorway Is it somewhere on the E6? I spent some time panning around trying to find where it might be and thought one of the junctions landscape looked like it could possibly match

@ListerLawrence https://t.co/MxVuZneB47

Went 23 miles below zero are fairly acceptable speeds.

Even if you couldn't do that why would you ignore so many warnings before that point???

@voidsrus4 @i_pkmn841 @000_three It's a modified AZ-1.
apparently the body is a 'tribute to the Yamaha OX99-11 and McLaren F1'

@magnesium9235 @camstadesign @hauke_schnau @jacobmparis @discord Whatever floats your boat. I didn't mind OneUI when I was using my Fold4 but ultimately prefer Pixel anyway. Good job there's choice! And I'm on the beta so there is sometimes some UI weirdness not present in the stable versions (though I think this view is the same)

[Ben @bfayers_]

@camstadesign @hauke_schnau @jacobmparis @discord On Android developers can register as many channels as they want which can all be individually customised (disabled, different sound, silent only, etc) Discord has loads registered.

[Ben @bfayers_]

@SomeUKTeslaGuy @xanderwasserman Yeah I did kind of expect a .20.x by now, there were plenty of point releases to .14

As far as I can tell it's not a FSD V14 model running in the background on the current version.

[Ben @bfayers_]

@SomeUKTeslaGuy @xanderwasserman My HW4 car in the UK has uploaded 40GB over the last 4 weeks... Have been on 2026.20 since the 6th
