“As far as I am aware, no government business was discussed.” Said “Johnson [who] admitted for the first time last July, during a session with the Commons liaison committee, that he met the former KGB agent at his Italian palazzo without officials present during his visit.” FFS! FFFS! FFFFFS! MI6?

I've noticed how newsnight and their presenters are using that shitty form of words to promote political ideas without actually saying so themselves, eg bsky.app/profile/vicd...

Still think it's outrageous that we're paying that racist "royal" family for the rights to build them on OUR coastline because apparently they own that land or some bullshit. It's OUR country not theirs

Because I shouted at her when she accidentally/deliberately cut across me to get to a roundabout and then have to stop. After she ran me into the kerb she shouted "how dare you speak to me like that". We're going to have Christmas carol on TV and on the streets again this year aren't we

already seems like a large majority of people are very angry, at what and at who, that is being manipulated by labour, Tory and reform. That's part of the reason we are where we are. Some of that has been going on for decades. me in bike getting run off the road by a car driver a couple of days ago

Is this demand for data for a apparently free gpx file GDPR compliant? It's obviously immoral to force gather data like this and use email systems to share data files. A real shame that everything has to be like this I blame @doctorow.pluralistic.net ... www.cyclinguk.org/routes/royal...

E bikes are also having a big impact, certainly the case in London. Although I think some kind of training and or regulation is needed on them because many e bike riders feel safe/isolated from reality and behave like car drivers do and out many others at risk and then there's the delivery riders

And remember the same people who did this stupidly will be looking for ways to jam AI into their businesses. In the UK Morrisons for example have already started to do this with the checkout tills and are experimenting with stock control. It will not end well and they've lost my custom

@stacyclecampaign.bsky.social Hiya I live down in Barnet and I'm thinking of cycling up to your area, are there any good routes for a simple mountain bike style rider? By good I mean safe and also interesting and also not too far, as will be travelling there and back and daylight is going now

@cyclinguk.bsky.social really quite annoying that I would like to download the gpx for the royal Chilterns way,but no I have to give an email address etc, can we not just freely share stuff without constantly having to give data to probably badly secured organisations?

Nope it does not validate anything, LLMs are a probabilistic making things up machine, although having said that I wouldn't be surprised if the American legal system starts taking the so called AI utterances as fact, so there is that. Please try not to use them, frog and boiling water..

Although maybe if they are rotting maybe why they were left, because they're pretty hardy unless it's really rainy which it obviously has not been, wonder if there's been a disease problem. I had problems this year growing squashes due to drought. I got blossom end rot on my toms for the first time

Imagine the absolute brain rot you must be experiencing to know that you are a guest of honour at a convention which celebrates SFFH authors and fiction, and keeping it under your hat until only a day or two beforehand that you've gone all-in on making AI "movies". And to think that will go down ok

I remember a talking right wing politico head the BBC used saying he was shocked and dismayed by the coup attempt, he later went back to promoting trump and the republican party as though nothing had happened

The BBC news absolutely does NOT both sides everything at all, they just promote their right wing agenda, if you realise that you'll see what they do makes absolute sense.

It's quite amazing how everyone pretty much is ignoring how all the flying insects have disappeared, annoying though it was to get eaten during an evening, it's way more frightening to now see that they've just gone in many places

Pete @ouch-that-hurts.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
Do you think it would be possible to fund some kind of bike camera for cyclists, because I had someone literally run me off the road yesterday and nothing will happen because no evidence. Even if it's just a subsidy and organising it. There's a huge increase in price from the US to here.
