@spacedoutsmiles Nice thing about the ones I linked is that they have builtin WiFi, but obviously you can do local things as well. https://t.co/TKzULwc8NI

@spacedoutsmiles I don't suppose you have any a11y tips around connecting the LED strip? It's currently taking me about 8 hours every build which I'm finding incredibly frustrating. Much, much harder than soldering.

@spacedoutsmiles We have a very similar taste in toys. I've been building these https://t.co/OwR1hSqCuu as presents recently.

In some more work news, I just added darts results to #BBC #RedButton. Check it out using quick code 180. If you use it let me know what you think and what new sports you'd like to see. @cleanfeed_ttvr might be interested?

Work news: I've spent the past month adding snooker calendar and results pages to the #BBC #RedButton. Find them in the new snooker section of the sports menu. If you're a snooker fan and use the service let us know what you think along with any other sports you want to see.

This is interesting. OpenAI just released GPT-4 and one of their partners is Be My Eyes. Looks like the app will have a virtual volunteer you can ask questions to. Apparently it can even do mobility if you're feeling brave... https://t.co/JEkig59PwL

@spacedoutsmiles Ooo I hope you like the V2! I'm sourcing the bits for a Win 98 gaming build and using the V2 for it; not ready yet but I did a test build using some other parts once it arrived and really enjoyed it. There's just something about being able to feel all the hardware!

[Ben Mustill-Rose @bmustillrose]

@KaraLG84 Had similar thoughts. Wonder if it'll happen when an engineer gets into an office or something. Who knows...

[Ben Mustill-Rose @bmustillrose]

@FreakyFwoof Weird. I know it's an annoying step to do but would you mind trying a reinstall? I'll happily raise it on Monday but one of the suggestions is going to be a reinstall so if that's already been done it saves a bit of back and forth sorry.

[Ben Mustill-Rose @bmustillrose]

@FreakyFwoof Sorry for taking a while to get back to you. Obvious question, but there's a playback settings button within the player that has a toggle for autoplay. Is that enabled?

In the latest install of the Call of Duty series: Modern Warfare II (2022) players can conduct DDoS attacks. The DDoS attack will disrupt or disable enemies or enemy equipment.

tl;dr in the future helicopters, tanks, guns, and even human beings will be IoT devices.

@FreakyFwoof Hi. Is the next episode not autoplaying then? What programme / episode was this on?

Absolutely huge kudos to @tortoise and @SkyNews for creating this tool which has the potential to be a real game changer in British politics. Let’s hope it also leads to real reform of electoral finance rules
