Seems like user error, I’m no programmer but even I lnow you don’t give an agent access to critical things, and Claude is very insistent at asking for permission at every step.

This feels overly pessimistic, I met my current wife online and there’s zero chance we would’ve bumped into each other IRL. I know the apps have gone to shit in terms of monetization and gamification but there are still real people out there who use them.

Curious whether the standard image upload makes any effort to strip this?

Nice light. I can hear the sound they make. Looks like flake Aluminium powder under a microscope at a glance!

My mate’s guitar setup is pretty cool.

Harboro is up there in my top 10 rocky outcrops. You have good taste in rocky outcrops and good friends. Thanks for sharing.

I think we hit peak ads in '98 with this:

Don’t make em like that anymore, or do they? I wouldn’t know.

Gaming. It has completely replaced flatscreen gaming for me. Playing FPS on a screen feels so ridiculous to me now.

Shooting weddings is uniquely draining, physically and mentally. 16 hours on your feet carrying weighty kit, putting your body in awkward positions to get the right angle, needing to stay hyper alert so you don’t miss the perfect shot, constantly thinking ahead, all with the added pressure to not fuck things up. I’ve done some really gruelling location work with even longer days but weddings are always the hardest.

Maybe lemon tek method might help. Or just find some DMT or 2-CB, which have been by far the strongest visuals for me.

Deflagration-to-detonation transitions are pretty cool but my all-time favorite would be acoustic strobes.

Add a Ligne Roset Togo orange sofa cluster and it’s perfect.

UK. Phone local GP, no appointments available for ~3 weeks, maybe get a call back appointment in 2 weeks if I’m lucky. Alternative is to phone every morning between 0830-0900 and either not get through or be told there are still no appointments available.

I have found walk in pharmacists to be well educated (better than many GPs?!) and available without appointment so they’re usually my first port of call.

Got accused of setting fire to the school. At the time of the fire, I was miles away, taking a music exam, after getting official permission, and being picked up and taken there by my mum. All very easily verifiable. Didn’t stop them from ‘interviewing’ me for 3 hours.

I have the XPPen 24, used similar Wacom before but couldn’t justify the cost, really pleased with it overall, the macro keys and wheels are very useful. Software wise just Photoshop, and occasionally Corel when I want to mess around with digital painting.

Very cool toys, hadn’t seen a one wheeler before

Is that a ground penetrating radar wheelbarrow?!

My time in Northern Thailand made me want to explore over the border. It seems the closer we got to the more remote border regions the more beautiful the landscape became. Some of the Burmese food around Chiang Mai was amongst the best I’ve ever had. Kao Soi in particular, although maybe this is more Burmese influenced than actually Burmese?!
