So I've started recording DJ mixes again 🙂 Here's 19 lovely records packed into under an hour to start us off! Kicks off with an orchestral version of Dr Dre & featuring rap, 50s blues, funk, jolly toe tappers and a Mr Scruff tune thats 24 years old😶 mixcloud.com/james-chapman9…

Looks like Google have just dialled up the firehose of AI slop.

People working on the train on documents marked highly sensitive. Always interesting.

@MarkPreston1969 Is there also a risk of data being hallucinated?

Just something to keep top of mind... I know that integrating Screaming Frog MCP into Claude is really exciting. BUT... Do NOT let AI determine your SEO strategy plan. This should only be used to streamline your research and analysis processes. If you are using it to get Claude to create your whole organic strategy... then it's going to look very much same old same as everyone else doing the same.

Wu Yize is an absolute gangster. That red to the middle was amazing!

@danbarker I did think the same. Romesh is in abso-fucking-lutely everything...

I genuinely thought the Celebrity Traitors cast list was a parody, with someone mischievously compiling a fake screengrab of the people who appear in *everything* with a few amusing wildcards thrown in.

I need 100,000 signatures to win a parliamentary debate about the ownership of the water industry. Do your thing internet. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/7626…

@OctopusEnergy I've submitted meter readings and am currently on a call with a support person who has put me on hold. I have been on hold for 45 mins....the hold music has now stopped and I am still waiting.

@_Chappers_ Hey James, I’d like to check the meter readings we’ve used to calculate those charges. I’ll pop you a DM to help you with this. 🐙

@OctopusEnergy I have just sent an email about a nearly sevenfold increase in my monthly bill dating back to March. Please can someone confirm this has been received and will be resolved immediately.

Good god no.

Love a good SEO conference, don't get me wrong - and I'm sure there's some good speakers here, but the lack of diversity on this list is really jarring. An all male lineup isn't a great look.

Some inspiration for @MrBButterfield

@CyrusShepard That ship sailed when featured snippets were introduced. Google hopping into bed with reddit and then finally driving a steak into their heart with AI overviews sealed the deal.

Ouch. Google really needs to do a better job of promoting small publishers Chartbeat data shows the smallest publishers (1,000–10,000 daily page views) saw the biggest declines over the past 2 years Small publishers are the backbone of the web. We don't need a McGoogle

@danbarker This it literally a scene from red dwarf (series 6: "Psirens")

I always enjoyed this, from a 2015 Clickhole article where they asked a series of astronauts 'What's it like to be in space?'

Watching old shows on Prime is a miserable experience. Frequent ad breaks awash with loathsome AI generated slop ads

@Aj_Mussell @PurrinReginald @Sacha_Lord @ianimperial @RachelReevesMP it wouldve taken you 2 seconds to google it and find these sachalord.com/news/sacha-lor… youtube.com/watch?v=pOl1bD… express.co.uk/news/politics/…

@PurrinReginald @Sacha_Lord @ianimperial @RachelReevesMP I'll be corrected but I haven't seen one Him and Gary nev were absolute fog horns and many trusted their judgement

Dear Chancellor. You told me you were The Chancellor of Business and Growth. What would you say to Becky, who has had to close her pub after 20 years, due to soaring costs @RachelReevesMP.

@carlhendy I also need some sort of plugin to mute any content containing aura underrated overrated gen <whatever> Nothing seems to get published without the above shit being mentioned

I keep seeing the words “Gymkim” and “Maxxing” in my feed and I have literally no idea what they mean or how they might be related. I don’t want to look them up because I suspect I’ll be underwhelmed.

Depressing week in UK politics but Viz Magazine's finest letter never fails to raise a smile

I see Question Time has reached its inevitable endgame. It was bound to happen.

Christ, Louis Theroux has been on every podcast going to promote this thing of his..
