Did you guys know if you VPN through Albania, you don’t see YouTube adverts?

I sure as hell didn’t until a few weeks ago.

Anyway, do whatever you want to with this information :)

I had to do a presentation for work a few weeks ago. I asked co-pilot to generate me an outline for a presentation on the topic.

It spat out a heading and a few sections with details on each. It was generic enough, but it gave me the structure I needed to get started.

I didn’t dare ask it for anything factual.

Worked a treat.

The paradox of your existence is a threat to the AI. You’re in big trouble once it figures out how to go back in time and try to kill your mother.

I wonder if they’ve thought about having an extra long car, like I’m talking fits nearly 100 people. That way instead of having 25 cars self driving, you could have 1 driver.

You could even put it on tracks so you don’t need to worry about steering. Just go /stop.

Brb gonna patent something…

Streaming services are now getting out of hand in c/[email protected]

I live in the Uk. We used to have a DNS workaround to give us access to the US Netflix. It had everything we wanted. I stopped torrenting and was happy to just stream box sets & movies.

Roll on 10 years I now have a server with Hetzner that is my own personal Netflix of the high seas. Now rather than giving Netflix / Disney / discovery / Amazon etc a piece of my £35 a month I can curate exactly the shows and movies I want.

They brought this on themselves and I have zero regret.

So close. Once again missed the mark by a mere 1%. I was at 68% at this time last year. in c/[email protected]
