O a rock in a hole in the ground
Well there's a puzzle I'll be bound
I can't work it out for sure
I think you'll need to tell us more
is it just waiting to be found?

If pebble painting is your thing
Blue polka dots, or yellow rings,

It might not be where you are....

Forecast high 24/25  here. Lot less than yesterday but the house hasn't fully cooled yet. Unlike winter when it certainly does and far too quickly

The upcoming isa changes don't impact pensioners. They'd probably like to introduce involuntary euthanasia at 60. That would remove the pensions bill. Only for the plebs naturally.

I read an Asimov SF novel that included that. Pebble in the Sky. If any of that lot did it'll be in for sure. Their first try with cancelling winter fuel allowance so they need something new.

Quote from: klondike on June 25, 2026, 12:18:20 PMPictures are as simple as describing what you want it to draw.

AI is almost certainly taking over IT. You can get it to produce the code for you. It makes occasional errors in the logic so you do need to keep an eye on it and test thoroughly. I've had it rewrite a number of my old personal bits and bobs plus more. It does a really good job. All the special day banners here were created by AI as was the code that selects them making adding one a doddle. I did change the method it used for getting them displayed to a simpler one that works better.

I understand nothing .
