I have to watch South Park with my 16yo these days, to explain the jokes. From which, this week, I heard the story of Mr Beast's move into theme parks. www.reuters.com/business/med...

Going to see Autechre tonight. It's an eye-wateringly expensive ticket, that I moaned about for a good two hours before adding to basket. But I think I'm worth it.

Thanks @johnhiggs.bsky.social for an elegant, logical explanation of what's going on with the AI bubble.

Much anger and outrage in our household from this decision yesterday. Perhaps it's time we, as a society, begin prerecording our football matches, and live broadcasting our highbrow quiz shows.
Only Connect and University Challenge automatically having to make way for a football match reminds me that I was born into a culture with questionable morals.

One of my fave @shardcore.org projects. Back when a) everyone wasn't sick to death of generative AI and it was still funny, and b) we still had the energy to do The Great Escape.

A Borges story about a guy who gets AI to summarize all the world’s information for him, and then summarize the summary, until the AI has the whole world summarized into a single word. He sits alone at his desk, staring at the word, repeating it endlessly, certain he is experiencing everything

Having read a book on the "afterlife of pop stars" recently, I now *need* to know if Shirley Collins was working at Brighton Job Centre at the same time Kevin Rowland was signing on. Reckon there's a sitcom in it.

It probably wasn't the focus of attention for most, but the lighting design for Charli XCX's Glastonbury set was phenomenal.

Over on ILX there's a new thread called "Let's determine the best moment of New Order's The Perfect Kiss on Substance" and these are the options in the poll and 1) accurate, all of them and 2) I am in agonies that there is no "ALL OF THEM" option.

This thread is making me feel better about the number of times I try to swipe through Tube barriers with my house keys or open the front door with my work pass
I’ve just put my trousers on back to front.

Im 62 on Sunday.

I spent a day at #DMSSFC25 yesterday. And, yes, it was full of it. And, yes, there were lots of them.
Fuck SXSW and its death machine sponsored shit for cunts.
