The UK government tried to create a chatbot to sit on top of Gov.UK and answer questions. But it didn’t work...

“If you asked it questions in a particular way it responded in French”

The Pegasus Arrives. One of my favorite moments made all the more powerful by Bear McCreary's amazing music. Wish the hope had lasted a little bit longer, but this scene will always be pure awesome. https://youtu.be/5Teb-nW7efk?si=5vJxMrOJCQJmGicX

davehay,

@gedeonm did you watch the Razor spinoff ?

Got a stable 9600 baud connection between 2 analogue modems via SIP.

Next up setup remote dial up login and a BBS followed by trying to get PPP to run.

Will keep poking at the SIP settings to try and get things to run a little quicker.

I think in theory it should be possible to get at least 14.4 working...

@gedeonm up there as one of my fave films of all time 😂

“There’s a problem in the cockpit”

“The cockpit, what is it?”

“It’s a small room at the front of the airplane, but that’s not important right now“

“Johnny, what can you make out of this?

“This? Why, I can make a hat or a brooch or a pterodactyl”

    So here's a new one.
    I was crossing the street in front of our local petrol station/shop and a car was pulling out of the same, opposite me.
    The driver wasn't indicating and was taking ages so I started walking over the road. The driver then pretty much drove into me so I gestured to him to indicate.
    He got out of the car, super aggressive & pushed me. I told him, "if you can't be arsed to indicate, I can't be arsed to wait for you".
    He backed down & drove off.
    Don't be this guy, people.

    davehay,

    @tdp_org new Highway Code rules may be worth a read - I think you’re in the right as a pedestrian

    “At a junction. When you are crossing or waiting to cross the road, other traffic should give way. Look out for traffic turning into the road, especially from behind you, and cross at a place where drivers can see you. If you have started crossing and traffic wants to turn into the road, you have priority and they should give way (see Rules H2 and 170).”

    I dread Winter. But the Winter Solstice always cheers me up b/c it means the days are now getting longer again! Which seems really counterintuitive when Winter is only officially beginning today.

    davehay,

    @briankrebs yip, the days now start to get longer, until June 22, when they start to get shorter again - it’s like a great big cycle, going round and round and round and round 😜
