The world's first ATM was installed in Enfield, London, in 1967. ATM stands for “Another Tenner, Mate”.

The bottle of wine says it goes well “with summer sunsets”. I’m not waiting, I’m having it now.

A Quentin Tarantino written and directed play in the West End sounds exciting on paper. But… a period farce? American humour on the London stage? Sacha Baron Cohen? There’s just so much that could go wrong. Could it be a massive turkey?
An illustrated theatre poster for The Popinjay Cavalier, a swashbuckling comedy written and directed by Quentin Tarantino, starring Sacha Baron Cohen. A moustachioed man in a billowing white shirt and red trousers brandishes a sword, while a woman in a pink dress looks on. Two swordsmen duel on a rooftop in the background.

Got a wee trip to London later this week. Looks like it’s going to be 20 degrees, in mid-October 🙃

“The Social Reckoning” is a sequel only in the sense that it has the same writer. But it lacks the tone, style and soundtrack that made the first a hit. I enjoyed the storytelling and acting, but Zuck is reduced to a caricature, in contrast to the complexity that made the original so compelling.

Just saw “The Social Reckoning”. They should’ve dropped the "The". Just "Social Reckoning”. It's cleaner.

If you’re using the new Siri AI here’s a tip: shorter commands execute faster. Try saying “Timer 1 minute” instead of “Set a timer for 1 minute”.

So which social media platform is going to let the US government livestream an execution? So grim.

Sometimes when I have the same thing for dinner two nights in a row, I refer to it as an “extended run”.

I admire the hustle of McCain trying to make Smiley Faces a Halloween food. Is there nothing a bit of creepy clip art can’t do?

The new Siri AI seems slow at certain tasks, like simple calculations. It feels like it’s using a heavier model than it needs to.

Film idea: ANTIGONE IN 60 SECONDS an action-greek-tragedy-heist where Angelina Jolie has to steal 50 cars, defy the King, and bury her brother before sunrise.

To give you an idea of how smart the new Alexa+ is: I give it a command, it says “Sorry, I can’t do that” and then does it anyway.

“Glove Slap” was a 30 sec joke in The Simpsons and yet somehow it has occupied permanent space in my brain for decades.

Sad to read this. I saw “Spring Awakening” about 18 years ago, and I can still remember the way those songs made me feel that night. Helped by a fantastic cast too (including Lea Michelle and Jonathan Groff)

Engineers are looking for more efficient ways to heat our homes, meanwhile a bagel I toasted 15 mins ago is maintaining a core temperature of 700 degrees.

Bug report: when you use the new self-service tills in Co-op and pay by card, they say “Please take your change”. Which is, of course, ridiculous.
