I do find this just amazing

I go to charity shops a lot these days. The main reason is that it’s one of the few places you can buy things that last / are quality One thing we don’t talk about enough is how entire categories of things we now buy, are now mostly junk. Clothes / furniture / electronics etc

A Floriday is what happens when “Why not?” meets “Why wait?”

Grok is the best named LLM. We “Google” things but we don’t want to “perplexity” them, or “ChatGPT” them. Being the category verb isn’t vital but it’s helpful and it’s not going to be 4 syllables

Something else the tech industry has poisoned... I really am struggling to think of anything positive the tech sector has done for the last couple of decades at least...

If AI is going to take over the world fast why is Air traffic control done over radio that you can barely hear and bag scanning at airports takes an age.

There are hundreds of extremely good reasons to be against AI, but the idea it “uses” water is wrong on about 10 different levels and utterly absurd as a concern Starting with the reality that it doesn’t Ending with the idea that water can’t really be destroyed, it can at best

I wonder how many millions of hours a year are wasted because most smart home stuff is 2.4gz only and most routers are dual band and the 5g makes it a mess

In American food stores almost everything looks disgusting. In a waitrose , everything looks amazing

Almost end of '25. A quarter century passed where we perfected the handheld phone, internet shopping, home delivery of goods, and completely forgot how to be alive

This is so utterly daft. Likely a bot, and if not, then someone who has very little knowledge of how culture works and makes blanket statements for clickbait. No critical thinking.

I didn’t realize shops in the UK would be so anti dog. I can’t tell if it’s the US being unusually welcoming for dogs of if the UK is quite anti dog. I get it. But am used to running errands on twice daily dog walks. There’s probably a happy medium between what in the US can

Some, would be a start

Shouldn’t two-factor authentication be unnecessary with Face ID? Like the point of 2FA is to make sure it’s actually you and not someone who stole your password, and Face ID means it’s for sure you so

Turns out , in our case, having a 4-5 month old baby was an absolute nightmare and a 5-6 month baby, a total dream.

Out of interest. Has anyone bought something different because of Using an LLM/ AI ?

Just think about how much good crafted insightful helpful stuff we don’t see because the algos prioritize utter utter shite everywhere

@braelyn_ai The algorithm optimization for watch time over quality is killing the internet. Default YouTube recs are optimized for maximum engagement (clickbait thumbnails, sensationalist titles, manufactured drama), not value. It's a race to the bottom. We need better signals for quality

It is just me or is it oddly hard to call an international line for a sensible price It’s free and easy to do a video call, but oddly hard to do what Skype made easy decades ago

AI = so so so so much spam Now 30x per day Make it stop All from Gmail. All passing spam filters All a scam Often book clubs for some reason All blocked To bo avail

just a collection of "inevitable" multi-billion dollar tech that was going to be the future of everything until everyone in the audience who was supposed to just get on board said "lol no"

log out of youtube and watch the default recommendations. its all slop. all of it. millions of views on each. the internet is beyond dead
