Found my old wireless keyboard, time to see if it still works, and if it does if I can remember how to pair it.

Thanks MSN but since when is maintenance a hack?

For those wondering the "forgotten heating hack" is bleeding the radiators.

The Epstein files are being prepped for release.

I had something similar.

It was deep in the pre-release hype of it being greal found footage.

I went to look up the UK release date to see when Predator 2 came out in the UK and forgot that I'd reset the browser.

I needn't have worried as thankfully AI was right there with the answer.

Isnt it a situation where you essentially pay twice?

From April 2023 to March 2024 the operating income was £25.4bn.

This consisted of £11bn from passenger revenue.

£1.9bn from other sources.

And £12.5bn from government funding.

So taxpayers fund a system they then have to pay to use.

Side note: a check of the The EUIPO database shows that Luigi Simonetti holds the EU trademark for" C= Commodore Engineering"

His attempt to file a trademark for C= Commodore is currently opposed.

And in the USA the only active trademark is a single live application currently awaiting an examiner.

I looked up one thing on Grokipedia just to check (Sega Master System)

It seemed very much that it just copied reference for reference the Wikipedia article.

I would say word for word, but it was like a 6th form essay fed through AI to change the layout of a handful of details.

Shit, is it retro community membership review time again?

I’m already on a final written warning.

Also found what I was originally looking for.

Old, bloody expensive for the time, but still better than almost everything that came after.

From The I Paper.

A Tel Aviv derby football match was cancelled yesterday between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Hapoel Tel Aviv after riots broke out, with police citing risk to human life.

Nine people were arrested and a further 16 detained for questioning.

For those who only know Maccabi Tel Aviv from the Amsterdam riots lat year.

You see, my theory that humanity was created by god fucking the planet like a watermelon doesn't seem so far fetched now does it?

I have a fish out of water pitch about an old school private detective who’s missing persons case sees him travel to a small province in Indonesia.

Never could come up with a catchy title though.

I mean there was that time Rod Hull got arrested and it turned out he had three arms.

So it’s not impossible.

I was in the pub last night, a mutual friend of ours said, he’d seen you in the uniform, yeah the leather belt looks manly the black boots butch, but oh what a bastard to get off.
