I would wheel the TV in on its trolley to questions of "Miss are we watching telly" to which I would reply "No - I just thought I'd bring it in here for a change of scenery"...

Thanks for the recommendation - Sceptical about celebrity books but as I like mysteries too I will read it.

I am really starting to get into the excellent #Moodle Generico Filter - moodle.org/plugins/filt..., which when used in combination with moodle.org/plugins/filt... can do some really clever things - I can create very personalised elements within courses en masse

Moodle Plugins directory: Generico Filter

Generico is a simple filter for creating templates of code snippets and text that can be inserted into Moodle text areas.

Bluesky, I’m looking for book recommendations

I’d like to read a non-fiction book on Russian history (any period), written in Russian. It should be available for purchase in Russia today, but not filled with nonsense or propaganda.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I love your description of AI as a "thought partner" - I've actually found my really helpful use of AI is to kick-start my own thoughts - often I end up using very little or nothing of AI's original offerings but it just gave me the impetus needed to formulate /expand my own.

In my attempts to make #Moodle multilingual, I need to increase char limit (from 255) on Activity names. I have done this at database level, so I can have names longer than 255, but if I then try and edit activity later, the interface stops me, as 255 limit still applied. How can I change this?
