I don’t see it so it may be slowly rolling out?

It’s better than nothing, but there’s also the issue of certifying that the code that’s open, is actually the code in the app. Also the vast majority of people do not posses the knowledge to actually read and understand the code to be able to verify it. So to most people, it being open is of little benefit.

I can’t believe Oracle has 10,000 employees to begin with. What the hell are they doing that even needs that many people to begin with?

Of course it is ideologically motivated, Palantir could be the best and cheapest option but we still shouldn’t give them contracts. They are a US company and subject to the US cloud act so we would be giving up our data to the US.

We need better procurement guidelines/restrictions for public sector software contracts so that UK companies have greater weight.

Stares at RAM and GPU prices

Maybe even part of the plan, I’m sure US domestic oil companies are raking it in

I really need people to understand that oil from the North Sea isn’t nationalised and so is sold on the open market, at open market rates. Just because it’s drilled near us, we don’t get much of a discount, if any.

I’m sure it’s all just business, but I like the idea that Toto heard the rumours and thought “fuck no, not letting him get back into F1”

Setup a Hetzner Storage Share (NextCloud) instance to migrate from Google calendar and drive

They’ll probably just fork forgejo add some slight “ai agentic” bullshit and market it as their own product.

I was going to say hopefully the forgejo licence doesn’t allow that but then again, OpenAI have shown they don’t really care about copyright or anything like that

Also that poorer people often eat more Ultra Processed foods, because it’s often cheaper and saves time. https://www.bbc.co.uk/future/article/20260220-how-ultra-processed-foods-influence-our-gut-microbiome

Yeah good luck building detention centres. Labour tried that on a disused airfield and still got objections from the locals. To reform voters everything sounds like a good idea until it affects them.

If they managed during the pandemic I think they can handle it now. I would like some departments to be moved out of London but I get that London is a talent draw so some staff would not like to move.

That’s still pretty high, we have all the same problems as the US, just on a 2-3 year lag it seems

I’m not saying that people shouldn’t take care when walking, especially crossing roads, I think that goes without saying. My issue is that that just by wearing black the blame seems to fully shift to the pedestrian when it’s also on drivers to take more care when driving at night. Again, don’t take this as me saying it’s fully on the driver, you still don’t want to just set out and expect them to stop, basic safety applies daytime and night.

I had an incident where I was almost hit by a car and was wearing light coloured jeans, white shoes, and a cream coloured jacket. Pretty light clothes, but the driver still said she didn’t see me. Now I could wear full hi vis, reflectors, hell even a helmet, but to me that seems overkill for a simple night out in town.

Glad there’s a north Wales station included. Would have liked to see the proposed Greenfield station on the coast line included but the Deeside one is good, especially once the Padeswood work is done to improve capacity.

Hmm, I’ve seen this before…

I do hope they pull it off, love seeing different looking cars and approaches.

Other than his road rage and nearly killing someone, top bloke

oh man I’m going have to setup EmuDeck again to play this. Criterion did not deserve what EA has done to them, bring back Burnout you cowards.

I wonder how it’s handled, is it a newly trained model for UK driving? If it’s just the US model but told to drive on the left it will be disastrous. UK driving standards are so much higher than in the US, plus tighter lanes with often completely worn out road markings. Think I’ll just avoid London for the first 6 months they are active
