Dan @danielorton.bsky.social · 4hI love how the guy on the sleeve (born Bernard Jewry) was not only the second “Alvin Stardust”, but he was also the second incarnation of “Shane Fenton”, several years before. And the voice you hear on that single is actually the original Alvin, Peter Shelley (but not *that* Shelley!) 110

No, the bit that leapt out to me was the @financialtimes.com use of the phrase "Seattle-based cloud giant" to describe Amazon, which sounds beautifully fairytale and captures the nature of this whole industry: magic beans. 28128

Dan @danielorton.bsky.social · 30/09/2026The word “solved” is the most revealing bit of all. Not only do AI knobs fail to grasp that art is about the process more than the result, but they also see it as a problem to be solved. Absolute robots. And not the good ones like WALL•E or Dusty Bin. 1102
