With this code, you'll get the block placeholder instead of a preview, which just says the block name, and the edit block button to launch the new modal editor.
The `blocks/preview/render` JS filter could let you render a different view, or component if you wanted to as well!

You can bring back the blocks v2 experience of "supports: mode: false" and "mode: "edit"" using a custom callback.

The problem with Slow Horses is that I've never been able to watch an episode without ending up doing the whole season in one session.

The AirPods Pro 3 are genuinely next level in terms of fit. I always used to think I must have really weird ears to never see people complaining just how much time you had to spent pressing them back in…
I don’t think I’ve touched the 3’s after I’ve put them in once yet.

Today, I finally went to Interstellar BBQ after being told for the last 2 years I have to get out there, I figured it was gunna just be the same as standard downtown BBQ, but it really isn’t… it’s next level, and totally as good as everyone says.

I wasn’t expecting my coffee machine to also have the emergency alert test and siren, but at least I know I’ll be safe during the 5 minutes I’m stood there each morning.

South Gloucestershire launched a new recycling collection system last week, and the best part is it has an API which contains hidden live status.
This means, I can now make my home assistant integration show the live status of each collection.

Some beautiful vortexes from the Shamrock tonight. And a train that doesn’t stop at Didcot so feels about 15m faster.

Picked a great day to travel from Heathrow. The tunnel closure meant no cars could get to the airport this morning, and everyone tried to use the trains… which led to platform overcrowding so they cancelled all the trains too…

Got to experience a Texas storm today. It’s wild how different it is to a storm in the UK.
From calm to intense strong winds in a flash, coupled with heavy rain and so much lightning, and then it’s all over again just as quick as it started.
