As 4 simultaneous Handbrake 4K compressions run Mac Studio's the built-in video encoders, the rest of the CPU's are having a yawn. So impressive M Chip power and efficiency from Apple. They have really mastered top chip design.

I thought this sort of tourist tat had disappeared from Edinburghs streets. Nope.

Back to the V&A Dundee again today. Such a nice place just to sit and watch. A great thinking space.

Not sure how I assembled on this Hotel in England while searching in Dornoch, in any case woo hoo 1990's calling for its website back.

What kind of utter rubbishy notification this is for a Scot to receive from a finance app.

Designed for IMAX, best viewed in IMAX. And is a summer blockbuster. Good fun although Checo makes it feel 5 years old ( no offence intended).

Wow 🤬 Scotland 4th in UK for charging points - or last as we’d say in primary school. This is pathetic. For the country in the UK whose renewables are largely exported south this is dire. And no Tesla superchargers north Inverness!! @lesleyriddoch.bsky.social

Due to her conduct since being turfed-out, "moron" does not feel cruel at all. Nice editing FT.

I am still angry at Google for serving me a handgun advertisement between YouTube videos. I've taken it to my MP and he raised it at Prime Minister's Question Time yesterday. I live 4 miles from Dunblane and i'm not letting this go. I filed feedback directly with google, still no reply.

Google’s You Tube policy forbids firearm promotions yet they served me a frikin’ Glock Ad. Utterly disgusted with Google!!!!!!!!

Taking a train yesterday and this LBC ad caught my eye. It was a shock. I’ve still not adjusted to a US President mouthing-off bat$hit ideas and not knowing if it’s real or not. Four years of this…

Having bought a new larger TV and upon watching Jurassic Park I noticed something new. Towards the end when Dr Grant, Ellie and the kids escape into the ceiling void, the raptor below has letters on its skin which I’ve never noticed before. CAGT which are nucleotides of DNA! Spielberg genius.

Kerrera ferry jetty. iPhone unedited - at this time of year colour saturation can be off the charts with a low sun on saturated vegetation.

Dun Uabairtich with the plough above. I have to say iPhone night shots are properly superb. Lots of computation, stacking, adjustments making and blending to drop these out. #aurora #scotland
