Reminds me of sitting in the OB scanner at the European Athletic champs in Berlin during the @EBU_Tech UHD HDR HDR NGA test shoot in 2018. Fun times.

Enjoying the @smpteuk conference session on AI. ChatGPT for referees. Followed by how do you translate between a non-gendered, informal language like English to gendered languages like German or a language with levels of formality like Korean.

For me, democracy is the galactic equivalent of when a human stumbles upon a branch of Wimpy. You know it’s seen better days, you’re kinda surprised it’s still going, but deep down you still fancy a bite. It’s a wonderful thing. Enjoy!

I'm somewhere which has a machine that perfectly strips any size of co-ax, crimps on a ferrule, solders on the pin and assembles the housing of either an N, PL259, BNC, TNC, SMA, MCC and adds the strain relief. Mind blown.

The England team's technique to ensure victory seems to be: bring on Harlequins and ex-Harlequins front row, half backs and three-quarters. Works for me.

"I’ve never fell off a big chimney. You only fall off one of them once." #OnThisDay 1979: Extraordinary steeplejack Fred Dibnah was introduced to the nation.

Fred Dibnah: Steeplejack, 1979

Steeplejack Fred Dibnah single-handedly demolishes a massive chimney stack, brick by brick, from the top down.

First time trying an StVZO bike light. Quite weird, path and car bonnets well lit, everything above still dark.

The All Blacks have some of the best running backs in the world. But their forwards are getting manhandled today and they haven't had a sniff of the ball. Unbelievable scrummaging by the Springboks.
