Reminded that I think we ought to normalise ‘From Hell’s heart, I stab at thee’ as an email signoff. Hi Martin Here are the Q4 figures, attached. Please do let me know if you have any questions. From Hell’s heart, I stab at thee, Geoff

PSA: The latest NVIDIA App update adds a Default-ON option that allows AI Agents to control the app... Might want to turn it off.. Even aside from being lame AI features, that feels like making security even worse by defaulting it ON.

Screenshot of the Nvidia app's "Settings > Features" section.
Showing the newly added "AI Agents and App Connections" section.
The option for "Allow Agents to control NVIDIA App" is enabled by default.
This happened in version 11.0.9.565

Welp, neither supermarket are on BSky to ask, but I'd love to know why a pepper with an ALDI sticker on it was in my three-pack of Sainsbury's peppers

The packaging from the Sainsbury's peppers, with a red pepper featuring a prominent ALDI sticker and barcode on it resting on top.

The marketing manager in the secondary I work at emailed all staff just yesterday asking them to stop making AI posters. It's literally her job to make stuff like that - it's even less work for staff to just tell her what they want.

(I’ll follow up that I met zach polanski a few months back and was shocked that he seemed very human.. it’s probably why he’s not gonna make it)

I once got wheeled in for a surprise photo op with Ed Vaizey when he was culture minister. He locked me with a cold stare and repeated the words ‘we are having an interesting conversation and I’m listening’ while shaking my hand vigorously until he clocked the camera guy was done. A creepy memory

Morning (New Yorker cartoon, by Rose Anne Prevec)

A man sits at a restaurant table holding two chips. A woman sitting opposite, with the chips directly in front of her, while he has an empty plate, says “I can't believe how much more relaxed I feel since you told me to calm down.”

If it was an ethnic minority she'd be saying it was justice. If it was a migrant she'd be demanding the death penalty is reinstated. But he's white, so it's clearly disproportionate.
