Just had a huge queen wasp start buzzing round my head, while I was playing a horror game, with headphones on, at 1am, in November. And after leaving the room, I now can't find it again, which is possibly worse. I will not be sleeping tonight...

Personally my usage has decreased markedly as apps have gotten worse, the environment has changed, and the harmful cycles promoted by algorithms became more apparent.

The source of that expert is an AI security company called Undetectable.

In reality the attackers used malware detectable by the free version of Windows Defender with static signatures from a decade ago.

Stockport is sometimes not bad

I swam at Stockport's big pool tonight, that is going to become a regular thing I think - so much better than any of the High Peak pools

💡 Ever wondered who mends and builds the gates you come across when you're out walking through the #peakdistrictnationalpark?

Our brilliant Conservation Volunteers Team! 🔨 One of their many important duties is the upkeep and repair of the gates in our national park.

I took some GPS devices for a cycle. An example: I stop at the lights then carry on south... Garmin eTrex tracks almost perfectly, Garmin Edge 25 is similar but lower res and ignores the stop, Garmin Vivoactive seems to use momentum and corrects its position at stops, Pixel 6 is off in the housing

Went away for a week - hate how old houses need their heat actively managing or they'll hoard it
