Heeeeelp!

Oh dear god I’ve angered the ai

Oh dear

Umm

Let’s see what it does if I ask Dall-E to generate a British yearbook.

Will it represent the UK’s multicultural heritage or will it be a whitewash?

1. Heh. Funny names.
2. Huh, they’re all white. Interesting.

I'm on an unrestricted variable electricity tarrif.
My price per kwh is about to go negative for 3 hours*

I can get my oven and air con unit to fight each other, and be paid for it!

*it's so windy that there's nowhere to put all the energy the turbines are generating, so they pay (mostly industry) to use it up. The price shoots up in the evening when everyone starts putting their heating on and cooking dinner. People on a fixed price tarriff are paying ~25p/kWh all day in the UK right now.

Free Matt Gray stickers.

They’re hiding in big Sainsbury’s at Haringey Green Lanes.

If you get there first don’t grab them all leave some for others.

Don’t travel too far, someone will beat you to it.

If they’re not claimed today I suspect the staff will find them.

I got new stickers.
No theyre not for sale, I normally hand them out when at events etc.

BUT I was about to place some around Finsbury Park for you to find if you wanted one but it’s too windy and they wouldn’t stay put.

Finding an alternative shortly…

lol no

As spring approaches I like to check all my really old hard drives work.

I call this the IDEs of March.

Something I’m always disappointed by in apps is them not gracefully dealing with intermittent internet.
So many feel like they’ve never been tested on slow/patchy connections.

Why not let me:
🔹press like, cache it, and send it when I get internet?
🔹press send on a message, cache it, and send it when I get internet? (WhatsApp handles this one well IMO.)
🔹open the message notification and see as much text as the notif held, & load the rest on reconnect?

Is being on the top of tending for your server the fedi equivalent of being a local celebrity?

Like the shopkeeper that many people know / have heard of…

Reduced my air quality to help relax

I had a whole train of thought that ended in “it’d be funny if people threw gang-style hand signs to show their supermarket chain affiliation”

If you'd like some wonderful bedtime reading that absolutely won't give you nightmares try this. It won't give you nightmares at all. nope.

You only ever hear about Werther’s Originals. I want to try Werther’s Plagiariseds

I love that Mercedes car radios list the frequency next to DAB station names.
Yep, frequency is useful info for FM/AM.
Completely useless for DAB.

No DAB radio lets you tune by frequency. And that’s not the frequency of a station anyway. That’s the frequency of the multiplex, Digital One in this case, which has ~25 radio stations on it!
