Favourite #WorldBookDay moment ...
Asked a hall full of children if any of them knew what a Dalek was ... girl RAN up to the stage and announced ... it's a small onion but strong. Cut it and you'll cry.
Me: .... thinking ...
Me: .. still thinking ...
Finally ...
... Garlic.
There is precedent for this. The earlier models would fix it too... π #Bagpuss

With those two, what you fear,
Is usually what you get... π

Doomwatch - Tomorrow, The Rat (2nd March 1970). If you can disregard the scene with the prop rats affixed to Toby's trousers, then there's still plenty in this episode that's creepily effective.

Love Lanterns on the Lake, and even Evelyn sniffs at Ouija boards, but how about this for an Uncanny anthem @dannyrobins.bsky.social ?

Back in the day, there was a Two Ronnie's 'news item' that reported that stories of thieves hiding vehicle thefts by cutting up cars and welding different halves together were hotly denied by aa detective from the wheel of his Jaguar E-type Combine Harvester... π www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

Another chunk of my past detaching itself like a melting iceberg. Forever grateful for the #Doomwatch scripts...

@manchester.ac.uk @digitaluom.bsky.social More than just a teeny bit proud of our students who put in the extra effort above and beyond to get to the Regional Qualifiers of the #UKCyberLeadersChallenge and doubly thrilled by the #BeeCryptors showing their mettle to win a place in the finals... πͺ
If you worry about #SirTerryPratchett's view that 'progress is just bad things happening faster', there's no relief in our foray into the information and cyber technology year.

Artificial intelligence...what other kind is there?* π
*@bigfinish.bsky.social's 'ish'
Long, long afterward, in a volume shadow copy
I found what once might have rested on a floppy;
And the file, from those obscure ranges,
Contained none of my most recent changes.
I saved a spreadsheet onto my C:\,
It fell to my disc, somewhere locally;
For 3 bells chime and I must dash,
How often does a hard disc crash?
I saved a document into the cloud,
It fell to a server, where read/write was allowed;
For, so swiftly it was saved, the sight
Could not follow it in its flight...
