I love using my local high street. I like looking at things before I buy them, to see what they are made of and how well. The keepers of specialist stores will absolutely help you to buy the right product and not waste your money. I like having an errand to run on my bike.
It's almost like we need some kind of flag on AI-generated content to prevent it from ruining things.
If we spent as much on public transport as we do subsidising the oil-based status quo, public transport would be convenient too.
I haven't has a squarespace ad read on my feed for years. Now I know why.
These things are all legitimately good for humanity and .. life. Are Republicans literally ghouls?
Wait. Are those supposed to be bad things?
Nice, but what Bones really wanted was a link to their Facebook profile.
Sounds like the boss wanted a grid layout of some kind. Honestly, if they can express themselves in Excel, and they can be made to understand the limitations of responsive Web design, then it's not so bad. At least it's a requirement and you don't have to guess.
Also: "Wadsack" hehehe

Enshitification hits Postman. POSTMAN!
In regards to the topic that has been closed recently: Collections not displayed after update - #8 by danny-dainton So how exactly does one use collections now for people who literally can’t connect the postman client to an account (login = literally impossible)? Exporting my settings is all well ...
I'm a bit late to the party here because I haven't needed Postman for a while, but how is it okay that now we have to LOG IN TO POSTMAN and send our API requests to them for them to store on their own cloud?
RTD interviewed by the Big Issue

Discussion: Where are all the dystopias?
Thanks to the glorious shovelling of Classic Who onto BBC IPlayer, I have been enjoying a glut of mid-80s classic Who.
It struck me how many of the CBaker-McCoy era stories are dystopian tales, reflecting the pro-establishment neo-captialist society that the writers felt was being inflicted on them.
Varos, Paradise Towers and Terra Alpha (of Happiness Patrol) are obvious examples; Necros (Revelation of the Daleks) and is a particularly nasty one. Even Trial of a Timelord was, at its heart, a tale of authoritarianism and narrative control.
Modern Britain is clearly in another phase like the 80s. If anything, the authoritarianism is more extreme, and the government's avarice more naked.
So where are the writers' reactions to that nowadays? Whenever the show has recently attempted to address societal issues, it has been either a direct sermon like Orphan 55 or an incompetent muddle like Kerblam.
