I also have a thing for craft beer, and did so before it was quite as trendy as today.

I live in Meanjin/Brisbane QLD Australia - in Bardon 4065 - on the land of the Turrbul and Jagera people. I'm British and moved here ten years ago.

If you're interested... yes, I did go down this rabbit hole, and yes, it's probably Claude, or another AI agent.

And that means that there looks to be a relatively foolproof method to block (or otherwise filter) messages sent via AI agents, if you're handy with a sieve script. Which I am not. But I am now motivated to learn.

Over the last week, we’ve heard stories of Starlink being cut off to Ukraine, and Google being shut off for judges at the International Criminal Court.

It’s increasingly clear that using American internet services is a business risk for companies, and a security risk for countries.

I moved away from Gmail as my primary email service in August (everything still goes there as a backup, but I’m using a different service to read/reply); I moved away from Google Search in 2024; but I still have a long way to lessen my reliance on US services.

Works, but now we have to add a switch-to-video toggle in both apps now since it's not HLS. Tickets filed 🫡

Looks great in my app too. I did notice your video James specifically had some frame drops which I didn’t notice with Sam’s or Adam’s (first one happens around 7 seconds in). Not hugely important for a podcast but might be something to look into. Great show, as always. Really nice to see nostr...
