Man. City away. We’re not winning the cup, lads… #NCFC

That feeling when the takeaway gives you your favourite snacks (pappadums), especially for you.
I told you guys last season that Kvistgaarden was a proper player and the end product would come, because he’s always reading the play and making the right moves. Two goals in two games so far this season… #NCFC
Kit Marsden@manek43509.manek.org.uk · 5mo agoOne touch too many there for Kvistgaarden — I think he’d have been better served taking the shot a moment sooner. But this is exactly what I’m talking about; he is always looking to make something happen, and you can see what’s in his mind when he makes those runs and gets in those positions. #NCFC
It didn’t ’beat Usain Bolt’s record’ because that record is for human athletes. A robot can’t beat a human athlete because a robot is not eligible to compete in that event. Just as an athlete found to be doping would be ineligible to ‘break the record’ — or a guy driving a Ford C-Max would be…
NBC News@nbcnews.com · 5d agoA Chinese humanoid robot outran Usain Bolt’s 100-meter sprint world record on the opening day of the World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing, posting a time of 9.39 seconds — 0.19 faster than Bolt’s pace in 2009.

‘Elanga is crap!’ ‘Gakpo is crap!’ ‘Newcastle are doomed this season!’ Amazing how all these self-satisfied social media fan assertions can get blown away after just one hour of football, isn’t it…?
I like Apple’s products. But I hate the company and their philosophy with a burning passion. If I could buy the exact same products but designed by a company which doesn’t actively hate its own consumer base, that would be a really nice development.
Very strange decisions going on at Mercedes. They made Russell let Antonelli through even though Antonelli had no chance of closing down Norris for the lead, and Russell would be far more vulnerable to Hamilton behind, putting their double podium in jeopardy. Why? #F1
What a save from both Audi drivers. That is incredible. #F1
I maybe one of the few #F1 fans who isn’t sad to see Zandvoort drop off the calendar again. That’s never produced particularly close racing, and was clearly only put back on the calendar in 2021 so they could get photos of walls of Verstappen fans letting off orange smoke bombs to use on Instagram.
I actually have so many happy memories of the proms. I used to take a few tins down, sit in the gods (for a fiver) and hear things I’d only ever dreamed of witnessing in person - Rachmaninoff concertos! Janacek! Choral Masses! Music for 18 Musicians! And up in the gods, there were always the…
Stephen Bush@stephenkb.bsky.social · 6d agoGrow up. This is just objectively untrue! Tonight’s listening is a South African cellist, Beethoven’s ninth, and the UK premiere of a piece by a new composer, played by aforementioned cellist, who is an African-American woman.
This is a very good post. The colossal waste and real damage of AI slop.

Given the current track record of AI (as presented to the public) and the various companies which develop and push AI upon us, I would personally not be willing trust medical research or diagnoses done by AI if I were unwell.
Megan Greenwell@greenwell.bsky.social · last wk.apropos of nothing, here's a terrific feature about a meaningful, life-saving use of artificial intelligence, which I have been thinking about for over a year. it's just extremely stupid to say that AI has zero benefits even if you don't think it should be used in writing (which I don't)!
Yes, cheating should be punished. Even if that is retroactively. Other sports strip athletes of medals years after the fact when they have been found to have cheated. No further comments at this time. #NCFC
well gee golly gosh what a huge surprise. no-one could possibly have predicted that this noble assistive technology would be used in this way i wonder if perchance we should maybe... BAN THESE DAMN THINGS
Maggie Harrison Dupré@mharrisondupre.bsky.social · last wk.NEW: Teen boys are using smart glasses — mainly Meta's AI Glasses — to film themselves harassing classmates at school, following girls around and "rizzing" them or "ragebaiting" them w/ insults. In several videos we reviewed, girls plead w/ the poster to stop filming. futurism.com/artificial-i...
