@floppy.org.ukReposted by @simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gyAnyone know of any student-led anti-GenAI campaigns in UK schools? My daughter hates the amount it gets used *by the school itself* and wants to do something…

@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gy@Unixbigot @projectgus this just makes sense. All computers should be spherical.
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gy@xssfox I believe so
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gy@tj I'm guessing that's the 'since the start of time' figure. We've had it since 2022 and used it more in the earlier years, so *maaaaybe* it adds up. Not bothering to go back that far and check though.
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gyWoolies claims in their Delivery Unlimited renewal notice that we've saved $2,264. But that didn't seem right so I just counted it up. We've had 13 deliveries in the past year. At $15 a pop, that's $195. And at $149/year for the subscription, that'd make a saving […]
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gyI think the main thing I've learned so far from having a car with an internet connection and companion app is how often we forget to lock the doors. Please don't rob us.
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gyLooks like I'm shopping for mobile plans again. Belong just bumped the price of the one I'm on by 20%.
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gy@tj didn’t last long 😕
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gyI'm drafting a set of rules for sorting #Lego. Give me your feel-pinions (or, full on beautiful-mind systems).
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gy@tj as is your right. personally, I would have skipped the cup and gone direct to mouth ;-)
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gy@tj is 'more' best measured by weight or item with nerds? i concede they'd tend toward the same measure as volume increased, but at that level, it could be significant. (this post is really advice for your children who are probably looking for a vaguely plausible argument to make/have anyway)
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gy[bad news; e-bikes]
This is awful news, but good job to the Guardian for correctly assigning the actions to the rider (not to the inanimate object they were riding, as too often happens).

@ben.werd.social.ap.brid.gyReposted by @simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gy"Trump's new AI website confirms he lost the 2020 election." I just don't care. Children are being deported, alone, without due process. People are being held in terrible conditions. Protesters are being shot. Protections are being eradicated. Wars are being waged. Elections undermined. Yes […]
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gyThere's not enough #woodworking in my feed. Any recommendations?
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gyJust walked past one of the ambient TVs at work that just plays loops of promo sizzle reels and had to double take to check that the reporter on screen wasn’t Philomena Cunk.
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gyOut tonight seeing the kid in another show. She’s a guitarist but has been talked into filling in on the bass. Has never played bass before. I’m somewhat nervous on her behalf.
@simon.bne.social.ap.brid.gyThe great Lego resorting is well underway.
