Re-reading "Neuromancer" and I'm struck how the protagonist wanting to get out of debt by selling 3MB of RAM went from being laughably dated to seeming actually plausible within recent months -
You know how a gambler who loses it all starts begging his family for cash or putting their house up for a loan?Given the money is going around and around between different AI companies (or not, it's sometimes just promises to do so) then I'm sure someone will lend SoftBank the money.
Maybe Nvidia?

I don’t know how many times I have walked past this but there is something completely absurd yet very much of-our-time about this.I would walk on the grass as an act of rebellion

The UK has announced plans to fast-track legislation requiring “age verification for VPN use”.How that would be enforced with VPN suppliers in other countries will be interesting to see.

Mini roundabouts have central islands which are a suggestion only

Observations from a Canadian visiting New Zealand:Yep, that's probably not good for traffic flow.
Adding traffic lights to a roundabout is a tacit admittion that it's not working as a roundabout. It needs to be a junction

Observations from a Canadian visiting New Zealand:Really weird that I believe the US invented Roundabouts then abandoned them.

We knew this was coming, but now the clock is running.All very good reasons to never fly into or over the US, until this fascist nonsense is history.

Deleted my post about the sexual harassment I'd received on Fedi, because it was driving more sexual harassment toward me. -
Free speech is when you let people say controversial things.Free speech doesn't mandate that you are required to listen to every fascist fuckwhit who utters the most deranged bollocks either
