Go with vibes, but the vibes include a lot of stuff about films/movies, music (see photo but also fluent in UK dance 87-96 plus jungle, hardcore, breaks, and yes pop! and prog! and krautrock!). And motorsport, and STEM, and digital, and the news.

The FT is a rare example of a website where I am actively pleased the paywall is too high for me to be tempted. Which also makes it an example of the free market defending me from economists, come to think of it.

I'm enjoying that the competing film which everyone is citing as evidence that Digger goofed is adapted from a complex novel but appears to have a big ol' hole in the middle, is lacking in execution, and is carried entirely by the lead cast.

There might be a good film hidden deep in VERITY, with some interesting ideas, but flat direction and a contrived, poorly structured script drain it of any life or enjoyment. Dakota Johnson and Anne Hathaway do what they can, but they can’t save it.

DIGGER: far stranger and richer than expected, a melancholic, delirious masterpiece about art’s futility and our hypocritical need for easy answers. The direction and insane production design blew me away, and Tom Cruise delivers the defining performance of his career. Silencio!

If you *are* going to see DIGGER you need to go soon or just not look at any Facebook item about it at all because there are - of course - attention-seeking twats jumping into the comments to give spoilers. Not even as part of the discussion, just... spoiling it.

This is on iPlayer! I've just noticed the studio audience do *not* catch the reference to either well-known mutiny, but it works anyway because Holly's read is perfect

I am unsure why it's all "LMP2 tchoh eh" - which LMP2 was involved in Acura V Acura and which LMP2 made Palou forget that cold damp tyres do be cold and there is damp there. Is it LMP2 that put Estre on probation? #petitlemans

@pantherraccoon.bsky.social I suppose I should try and remember the DST debate is different in the US because everything is that much further south than London and the agricultural parts are a LOT further south than London. So it makes less difference, really.

"handed incident responsibility to George Kurtz" for not being quite careful enough in a critical situation. JUST LIKE MICROSOFT DID EH READERS #petitlemans

Let the record show that "low-balled" is the word I couldn't think of and went with completely making up "underpitched."

Ha OK maybe I underpitched it a bit with 47 years

Not sure it's moved on substantially since the roundup in GEB, which was published 47 years ago, except maybe for Objective Collapse theories sticking an oar into the consciousness-as-observer discussion. Maybe it's, y'know, actually quite difficult.

I do think philosophy as a discipline has dramatically underperformed at answering the question “When would an artificial system qualify as conscious?” Should have nailed that one long before it became a practical issue.

I can't help with the whole thing about the TV truck not starting the audio when the video starts, and apparently they can't improve that season-on-season either because broadcasting is hard even if you're supposedly the best in the nation

No, they were not, it is an explanatory example of what kind of thought goes into casting the line-up. This is extremely obvious in this excellent interview which is from Collider, a credit you seem to have forgotten to include, perhaps because you were too busy dreaming up a QTWTAIN.

YouTube are trying to charge £15 a month for the privilege of letting a stream play in the background on your phone. Pixel have introduced a feature where you can let any app work in a "bubble" on your screen. Guess what happens if you put a YT stream in a bubble...
