Further to this, I have a TV version that's also working brilliantly. There's a spreadsheet recording show coming soon/watching/finished/abandoned and our thoughts on it. This is the shared household ledger of TV. ChatGPT can read and write to it and learns our preferences.

I have a vague prototype of ChatGPT music companion. It has my full Spotify history. It suggests what to listen to based on that, feedback and chatting about music. It has largely created a pretty accurate picture of what works for me.

Oh this is tremendous

Had missed this fire from Emily T, also possibly the only politician who formats ellipses correctly.

Maybe concentrate on turning up for more than two days a month yourself first…

Meanwhile, Nigel Farage says "I'll force MPs to work seven-day week to fix Britain"... 🙄

I love the Ig Nobels. Proper interesting science that also makes you laugh.

You used to get proper British gangsters. Loved their mums, never did anyone harm who didn't deserve it, only went after their own. Bit of light murder and back in the pub for a pork pie and pint of mild. Couple of years in the Costa del Sol if there's any heat from the filth.

Who the fuck eats six oysters themselves though?

Nigel should resign again, and let the voters of Clacton decide. If the mouth breathers of that illustrious town vote him in again, let that be the end of it.

This is brilliant.

Undercover footage verified by Channel 4 News reveals a secret plot by senior Reform UK figures to break the law on party donations. A leading legal expert is now calling for a criminal investigation. 🔗 Read the exclusive story on Substack:

This is a cause close to their hearts, with so many of their CDs having previously headed that way

You know what? I'm enjoying Lasso S4. Still funny, still the characters I like spending time with. And hitting some obvious but apparently still not obvious enough beats about misogyny.

@forrishilier.bsky.social I have a button to wire up as a power button on a Pi. Only too late have I realised that it doesn't have jumper connectors, just wires. Do you have some connections I could steal, or a button I could swap you with?

I hope Sir Keir goes back to work in his dad's zoo

Solar panels are now China’s top source of power capacity, surpassing coal in a key milestone for the country’s green energy boom.

Well. Quite the Autumnal morning.

Just a PSA that there are now three paydays to Christmas. So, yeah. I think it's fine for shops to start putting stuff out so people can spread the cost.

Addendum to this. Both mine and CPs AIs can now see and write to the spreadsheet. We've got a shared household memory of TV we like, with natural language notes that can go beyond yes/no.

I'm doing some quite interesting things with my ChatGPT assistant. I've never been satisfied with JustWatch or Spotify recommendations. Do my AI is doing it for me.

Interesting use of the word "addresses" to mean "doesn't address"

Fucks sake. We don't want him

Ah. Our power has gone out.

Its been lashing it down since 5am. Glorious. The only rain we've had since 9th June. (Unless you count a few drops on 21st August, less than quarter of a mm)
