There seems to be an obsession in UK mystery TV series with classic (or at least quirky old) cars. Recent ones I can recall: 60s XKE, Nissan Figaro, 90s BMW 3 series, early 70s MGB, 80s Nissan sports car.

I understand period pieces needing period correct cars but these ones are not that.

This will piss US citizens off. The type of American citizen that travels and needs a passport in my experience is definitely not MAGA or Trumpist.

No doubt it is somewhat transformative like a few other technologies I have seen in my lifetime and will have profound effect on a number of niche industries. In mainstream tech the big winners will be companies like Google and Microsoft that have existing technologies and markets to embed it in. #ai 2 of 2

My (maybe naive) view of AI as a boomer (but with many decades of IT experience):

Most of the hype of AI being evil and taking over the world, destroying jobs, destroying mankind is hype. It will end up being just that hype.

Sdf mastodon is getting near impossible to use. At random times just goes away for unknown reasons or is in "maintainence mode" or get "rate limited message" just tying to scroll and read messages.

I know they are apologizing and asking for patience but patience is wearing thin.
