Not sure why this lagging indicator has reassured markets. Aren't Nvidia's good results the outcome of the potentially risky investments in AI that the market was worried about? Can someone who understands this explain it to me?

Let's hear it for basic human civility
When I see someone reply "fuck yourself you stupid cunt" to anyone online I tend to block them. It doesn't have to be at me or even at anyone I like. I just probably don't need someone like that on my radar.

Watching a "colorized" black and white 50s b-movie. It looks very strange. They just shouldn't have.

I hope no-one ever decides this would improve Casablanca. Or The Big Sleep. Or the black and white sequences in a Matter Of Life and Death

Apparently the grownups in government think it's fine to put flags on motorway gantries. Some of us children feel like flags on motorway gantries are multiple pileups in waiting. What happen when one breaks loose and ends up on a windshield?

A few years ago when some were terribly excited about "the singularity", there was an idea that a superintelligent computer could completely control humans by "hacking" them with the right visual/auditory stimuli. 20 years later: www.theregister.com/2025/08/26/b...

This mid 80s Bowie album veers from the brilliant (Modern Love, Let's Dance, Cat People, China Girl) to the some very meh tracks. 50% killer/ 50% filler

Labelling non-violent protestors as terrorists is a shocking thing for a democratic country to do. Not only could members of PA be jailed simply for being members, anyone who agrees publicly with their aims could be jailed.

Whenever the sun comes out I get the urge to put on this 1983 classic, part of the 80s psychedelic revival. Not a dull moment on it.
