So the writer means Starmer pulled it from a fringe left unelectable mess of in-fighting (in a first-past-the-post system and Murdoch dominated press) to a left-of-centre party that’s trying to win over as many voters as possible to get a overwhelming majority in parliament.
I don’t like how centrist the current form of the labour party is, but at least there’s a chance of them listening to us once in power.
Well that’s it. Once they get into power keep applying the pressure.
That’s what the StopTheTories.vote group are planning to do with their agenda to get a form of proportional representation to replace FPTP once the Tories are out.
The only other option is armed revolution and good luck rolling the dice on that in this country given how it’s gone previously (gestures to all of UK rebellion history) I’ll be out of the country for that one.
You know how Google’s new feature called AI Overviews is prone to spitting out wildly incorrect answers to search queries? In one instance, AI Overviews told a user to use glue on pizza to make sure the cheese won’t slide off (pssst…please don’t do this.)...
What y’all are forgetting is that when it comes to dominating a technology space, historically, it’s not proving the better product, is providing the cheapest/widest available product. With the goal being to capture enough of the market to get and retain that dominant position. Nobody knows what the threshold is for that until years later when the dust has settled.
So from Google’s perspective if a new or current rival is going to get there first, then just push it out and fix it live. What are people going to do? Switch to Bing?
So is you want Google to stop doing this dumb broken LLM shite, use the network effect against them. Switch to a different search provider and browser and encourage all of your friends and family to do so as well.

Then goodbye every UK resident’s pension that are invested in the water companies.
That’s why they’re “too big to fail”. You let them fail, you’ll throw people who are about 40 to 50 years old into further reliance on the state pension.
Better to prosecute the C-level executives and take the company back into public ownership.
