Good. Don’t steal art
“I just don’t know how you go around, asking everyone first. I just don’t see how that would work,” Clegg said. “And by the way if you did it in Britain and no one else did it, you would basically kill the AI industry in this country overnight.”
Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry
Paul McCartne, Elton John and others signed an open letter.

Well worth a read. Daniel Storey gets it. You or I might get it slightly differently, but he does.

Where has the time gone? One of the best days. Excruciating for 99% of the game but worth it for that 1%.
HAPPY 19TH ANNIVERSARY!❤️
19 years ago #LOFC went to Oxford & sealed promotion from League 2 with a dramatic 3-2 win with goals coming from Craig Easton, Gary Alexander & Lee Steele, a captains performance from John Mackie, with Barry Hearn joining in the celebrations at FT! 🎉

Shut down the youth clubs.
Sell off the playing fields.
Put up "no ball games" signs.
Make public places hostile to teenagers.
Then:
"Young people, eh? Always indoors looking at their phones."

I think that one of the best clubs in the country to support at the moment might be...Leyton Orient.
It's not just the redemption and the potential, but the human story here. For that, you need to speak to Martin Ling.
