AI HUCKSTER: "i built you a machine that reads books for you."

ME: "can you build me a machine that unloads the dishwasher for me so *i* can read a book?"

Although this is encouraging.

This strikes me as a pretty major Brexit shift from Starmer.

Perhaps the beginning of 'Brexit is sh1t and has caused real economic damage'.

Not holding my breath Labour will watch and learn. 😱

That's just pettifrogging. 🤓

If I was him I'd be pretty pissed my far right mates left me to get a kicking. 🤷‍♂️

I'm not sure making an argument 5 years late will work but I suppose it's better than the previous nonsense.

However will only work if they bang on, and on, and on about it. Doing it for a week will be the worst of all worlds.

What? The gov comms are terrible? I mean, they've been killing it this last year. 🤷‍♂️

It seems more and more, with every passing day, that we're watching a remake of 1930s Europe.

And to anyone who thinks I'm being hyperbolic- it's the accumulation of small acts, fascism doesn't happend over night.

Either that or she did an apprenticeship before going to university - but I don't think she's ever said that before.

I do hope she's not stretching the truth, as that would be unfortunate for her argument. 😉
stucun.bsky.social
She talks about what she learned on her apprenticeship.

Has she ever talked about doing an apprenticeship herself before?
Because a degree in computer science ain't an apprenticeship.

When and where did she do this apprenticeship? 🤷‍♂️

Thank goodness those weight-loss jabs were not in vain. 😉

To be fair, looking at the pictures of the, ahem, crowds at the conference it looks like they're being pretty successful. 😜

I think you're being unfair.

I'm sure he's on record as being equally appalled that he only sees white faces in Herefordshire* where his second/third home is. 😉

Exactly! How can none of them not know about Healey's Law of Holes? 🤷‍♂️

Or even Ian Hislop, who I think would describe himself as editing a news magazine. 🤷‍♂️ Not a good look for him.
stucun.bsky.social
I thought Hislop edited a news magazine, and he even agreed and amplified it. 🤷‍♂️
stucun.bsky.social
Hislop giggling and nodding along.

I thought he claims to edit a news magazine. 🤦🏼‍♂️

So strange. How did she not remember this rather important bit of recent history?
stucun.bsky.social
I thought she'd got CBS, not Sky. 😉

*gets coat and leaves*

That's good.

Am I imagining that Nick Robinson did this recently when an interviewee would accept basic facts?
stucun.bsky.social
Would have been good if Sky had stoped the interview at that point. If he won't accept common facts, how can you interview him?
