The gym is definitely the place I consistently get the most puzzled/mocking looks for wearing a mask, but since most of the people I know who said things in 2020 like "I don't need a vaccine, I have an immune system" were also ostensibly the health and fitness crowd...
Today I have learned who Olivia Rodrigo is, because her fanbase is going to war with the new Co-Op Live venue in their IG comments after they cancelled her show which would have been this Friday. That's on the back of them cancelling a gig *ten minutes* before the support act was due on - because, apparently, part of an air conditioner fell from the ceiling. Feels like a representation of the state of the country tbh!
They're truly the pits. A cynical, cruel, pitiless party who will happily drag desperate people into detention and then force them out of the country (at great expense, for those concerned about such things) for nothing more than political advantage.
Saturday night's Twitch stream had most people checking in from the eastern side of the US and the north-west of England, plus a listener holding it down in Hull! Am very much enjoying the new map/check-in feature 😁 - a bit of custom development to provide something unique for my awesome viewers!
I'll be streaming on Sunday at noon UK time - Vintage Vinyl, all quality old soul, funk, jazz, and the like, all on wax! Head to https://twitch.tv/airadam13 tomorrow to join us - and follow me if you'd like!
@slowe I was just thinking about the "screensaver" one a few hours ago - it drives me up the wall because the background picture is doing the *exact* opposite of an actual screensaver!
This is an interesting read, there are some *scary* ideas behind the push for AI in everything, being propagated by the nightmare crew that brought you most of the other terrible stuff to come out of Silicon Valley...
Please help me with a long-term family tech support issue; Is there an easy way on Android to move WhatsApp media (if not the whole app) to the SD card rather than internal memory? Here are the constraints; - older Samsung (S7 IIRC) - current data/chats/etc must *not* be lost (included departed friends and relatives) - rooting is not an option - Android forks are not feasible either
This scares the hell out of me. Not only are they going to use our photos for a purpose we never consented to, but I would expect the misidentification rate for Black people to be far higher than whatever is claimed. As someone who has been stopped by the police before due to a ridiculous case of mistaken identity, I can only imagine trying to talk them out of an arrest when they say "computer says this is you".
