A lot of people are choosing to look away right now in the face of something that is making Doctors Without Borders say things like this

Right, so this is the story of the old mate I was out with last night, didn't happen to me, but too good not to repeat. Will probably only work for the Brit adjacent.

BBC news are talking to very very posh people telling us that King Prince Charles has a very hard job actually. I am trapped with them waffling on while I wait for my car to be serviced

This week's newsletter: It's time to call BS on generative AI and demand that companies like OpenAI actually provide useful, helpful software, and actively reject the growing coterie of hucksters using AI as a marketing tool to get media headlines. www.wheresyoured.at/put-up-or-sh...

Uh huh. Now what do I do?

It amazes me how many people you see on the news as experts, calling in from home, who still have abysmal webcams and lighting

You don't need a full streamer set up. But a camera that's not your laptop on the coffee table looking up your nostrils, and a light that's not a spotlight aimed at your face or your window facing the sun

It's amazing to me quite how many people irl, of a broad range of political beliefs (but usually don't talk about), I've heard say something along the lines of "pity their aim was off".

As promised, here's the full post to go with the cool pic I remembered to take. www.funraniumlabs.com/2024/07/evol...

Oh man. I remembered to take a picture of something important today before it goes away. This is going to necessitate a full post to explain the importance of it, but your homework question is this: If you are doing chemistry work with nasty/toxic smokes, fumes or gasses, how do you do it pre-1900?

The only way to end the Euros was with a burst of Queen. They’re popular, really suit stadiums, and English is the lingua Franca of international events. The French equivalent of Queen, Reine, have a triumphant song called “We Are The Mushrooms” and it doesn’t work anywhere near as well.

Fffffffff

Right, time to go to work and greet all my colleagues with a cheery ¡Buenos días!

Well, maybe not Chris the german

They've probably had a pretty good day already tbh

remember, giving a kick by kick commentary on a sports match on a service like this is really shit!

gonna log off for a bit to avoid being annoyed

Fellow 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿: I know the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 are insufferable about tonight, but can you imagine how bad it would be if we'd made the final? The "comedy" cover versions of "fitba's coming hame", etc?

Why does this look like Gregor Fisher doing a Naked Video sketch.

Do uh… do y’know what cover is, Gary?

Bet it's an especially busy day for England's coke dealers

also, declaring places that elect eg a Reform MP as being entirely terrible? Bad, wrong, i wish people would stop

understandable!

Yeah Northern still have a big issue with industrial relations, and most of the Sunday service is held together using overtime. So today's especially bad because suddenly people have turned down rest day working because of the football Which, obviously, is shit for people needing to travel.
