How much money was spent building the new Madrid F1 traffic.. where you cannot perform an overtake.. just driving around circles following each other. #f1

Suno - a company that trained on "essentially all music files of reasonable quality that are accessible on the open Internet", and argues it does not need to pay to do so - is now valued at $5.4 billion. They will pay for GPUs, and for engineers… 🧵 1/2

I’m finding that I’m spending a fair amount of my work hours explaining to non tech people that the website they just built with Kiro is a static html file that only they can see. They honestly believe they just built a dynamic reporting portal that the entire company can access. Whats a web server?

AHEAD OF TONIGHT: For true sickos, we’ve updated our Spurs mugs from this, the most curséd of seasons. Removed the manager entirely due to the lack of suitable candidates, and added in Richarlison being extremely Richarlison 💛 🤔 Shares appreciated! X #COYS 🛒 noscoredraws.com/products/spu...

Look what they did to Notepad. Shut the fuck up. This is Notepad. You are not welcome here. Oh yeah "Let me use Copilot for Notepad". "I'm going to sign into my account for Notepad". What the fuck are you talking about. It's Notepad.
Windows Notepad, the native simple text editor, now has formatting options and a Copilot button.

What on earth made Topps put Kinsky as the starting keeper for Tottenham in their 2025/26 Premier League set? so they could squeeze in another "RC" card? #tottenham #topps
