Did Gen AI calculate those per kg prices?

Screenshot of pricing for a product on Amazon.
A 2kg pack for £10.19 is listed as £1.02/kg instead of £5.10/kg.
A 3Kg pack for £10.99 is listed as £1.10/kg instead of £3.66/kg.

The per kg price is assuming all bags are 10Kg.

First rose of the year in my garden. Surprisingly late given the weather we've been having.

I got a good deal on fat balls for bird feeders so ordered a large pack. It just got delivered and is really large! I hope the birds are very hungry!

A cardboard box with over 150 suet balls.

10 years after being bought, and 2 years after being replaced by an M1 laptop, finally giving away my workhorse of the late 10s. It was max specced Pro when new. Now it doesn't come close to a bottom specced MacBook Air 🙁 Goodbye, and thanks for your service.

We're at a stage now where every visit to his favourite places feels like it may be the last. Today we took advantage of great spring weather and my week off to enjoy the sun in Puttenham common. It was one of his better days, and one of my best days this year.

Yet another example of blindness of the monarchy (and reporters who cover them). Who in the world thought it's a good idea to have two black people in lycra in a palace room paying respects to a white Queen (and courtiers) who's dressed in black formals? […] [Original post on androiddev.social]

British Queen Camilla, dressed in a black formal dress, meets two black TV personalities who are dressed in figure hugging lycra. They're standing in a room in the Buckingham palace.
The caption reads: Queen Camilla meets Gladiators Nitro aka Harry Aikines-Aryeetey and Fire aka Montell Douglas, at a reception to celebrate the final of BBC's creative writing competition 500 Words, at Buckingham Palace, London.

Got in some valuable head clearing and reading time at my new favourite cafe in town. Also paid a visit to the bookstore and got rewarded with a kiss by a little doggo.

View out from the cafe. A woman is sitting alone with her drink on the left. Another woman with her back to the camera is on the right. Outside the cafe another building is visible with red awning out front.

A photo of my coffee with a swan drawn in the foam. Also on the table is my kindle and another book under my red beanie.

My wife's friend sent her a postcard from DC. My favourite part are the stamps. It feels like a lifetime ago when RBG shone the light on the US Supreme Court.

Two stamps with photos of ex US Supreme Court justice, Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

The irony conveyed by the top four stories on BBC can't be put into words. #gaza #holocaustRemembranceDay

Screenshot of top 4 stories on the BBC news UK website. Two of them cover the Holocaust memorial services at Auschwitz. The other two cover mass migration of Palestinians survivors back to northern Gaza.

Just realised that both books on my desk will trigger Muskovites.

Photo of spines of two books on a desk. The books are "MAUS" by Art Spiegelman, and "A city on Mars" by Kelly & Zach Weinersmith.

Headline: "Tractor convoy" Image: A single tractor in a vast, empty parking lot, probably in the middle of the night. The headline is what the Tory stuffed BBC wants us to believe. The image is a rejection of how much shit people actually give about […] [Original post on androiddev.social]

A screenshot of a BBC article. The headline says, "Tractor convoy visits supermarkets in tax protest"
The image accompanying it shows a stumble tractor flying the UK flag, in a large and empty supermarket parking lot.

Pizza Hut were promoting app only offers so I downloaded the app. I could only access two screens. Here they are... The login screen and the post login screen. How does anyone ship to production?

Screenshot of login screen in Pizza Hut app where all text is variable names instead of variable values.

Screenshot of post login screen in the app that just shows a developer error message saying "Text strings must be reverted with a Text component"

Humans - occasionally scared of flying but fanatical about their love for cars.

Screenshot of Wikipedia front page showing three headlines. First is about an airplane crash what killed 38 passengers. Second is about a multiple vehicle car crash that killed 41 people. The third is about using a car as a weapon to kill 5 people.

What is this organisation, and why is it suddenly visible everywhere suddenly? Feels like a Chinese Cirque du soleil, but the leaflet says they are not allowed in China. So an anti communist performance arts group?

A card leaflet of something called 2025 Shen Yun.

Went to search for something in Gradle's github issues. Found this ...

Screenshot of issues tab on Gradle's Github repository. The screen is full of blatant spam messages.

Yesterday in wordle (I know her preferred starting words so took a guess off them 🙂)

Screenshot from a chat app. Other person's message shows them sticking Wordle in 2 tries. My message shows me solving it in first try.

Discovered a hidden constraint in Google Chat 🙂

A screenshot of an obscured chat message with a lot of emoji reactions.
There's a dialog saying "this message has hit the limit of 50 unique reactions".

Notice how the icons in folder animated their size and position when it's expanded. It's such a small thing to do. It's also sucha small thing that, when a user notices, bring a tiny smile on. Nova Prime launcher on Android.
