Finally, some good AI news

Vibe math. No thank you

Arthur C Clarke is an excellent author and the Rama series is one of my all-time favourites. I’d recommend anything by Philip K Dick, though honestly I think a good reference would be to pick works listed in the SF Masterworks collection, it’s how I found many of my favourite SF novels.

If you fancy venturing into modern SF classics, my favourites are by Peter F Hamilton, Iain M Banks and William Gibson; though does Gibson count? He doesn’t even have a middle initial 😄

Note that it was City of London Police involved. The City of London is quite distinct and different from the London that tourists know of. The City of London is owned by the corporations (mainly financial institutions) within its boundary, it is self-governing and has the right to set up it’s own police force which can take enforcement action in any part of the UK, not just the City of London. They are basically an enforcement arm for corporations and are very interested in things like enforcing intellectual property claims.

Stone cold classic.

I have started to do this and I’m using Docker to host Kiwix. I’m currently using it to provide offline versions of Wikipedia, medical guides and tutorials for various programming languages. My plan is to put essential apps and information on an RPi and provide a broadcast hotspot where anyone can access the info.

I also live on top of a hill, so I’m saving up to put together a solar powered Meshtastic repeater that I can mount to my aerial pole.

Wireless Application Protocol. I can no longer say on my CV that I ‘worked on WAP in the early 2000s’.

It has high integration with both the Capcom Hyper Advanced Intensity Rig and the Sony Optical Firmware Adapter

Then you’ll also be really disappointed to hear that I’ve been sitting on this for over 40 years.

Yes, if you have the Logic Unit Base Expansion

Yet more anti-consumer technology to go alongside the gates that won’t let you out until you scan your receipt, the ANPR in the car park, the hair-trigger scales on the bagging area, etc. All to crush that extra penny of profit from us.

If something good is continuously almost happening, it’s ‘edging’

How about, you give me AI ‘enhancement’ and more ads and I’ll give you my solemn word to never use your browser again? Deal?
