The future of AI
Lord T, whose field is IT (slightly longer profile below the article over at OoL plus Jstack, text copy backed up), has sent a piece on where “AI” is headed … he should know as he has to negotiate these things in a professional capacity. This is just the opening below:
… I lost my post at OoL. By the way, RFK Jr has come out in support of this Schwartz.
16. CK, EK etc.
Let’s open with Steve with this Xer Jacktron:
“The prosecution revealed that UVU cameras CAPTURED Tyler Robinson killing Charlie Kirk. The prosecution says the cameras captured Tyler Robinson going to the snipers perch, taking the shot at Charlie Kirk, and then running away into a wooded area. No wonder Crazy Candy the Bisexual Occultist is wetting her diaper: her entire shtick that she’s been building over the last six months is about to go down in flames. Never forget those who participated in this and those who refused to call it out for the sham it is.”
There were comments for and against. I found this one:
This below is from IYE:
CK was either electrocuted or there was an explosive in the microphone. Tyler wassisname is just another patsy. IMHO.
Another deep dive on CK from Leah:
“Was The TOUSA Insurance Policy Under Our Nose The Entire Time?”
My own thoughts but by no means definitive conclusions:
It’s so three letter agency JFK killing … the patsy who did fire, who knows where, the professional assassins, shenanigans with the body after it, the Warren Report. Almost the same playbook.
“Having just watched the “Poseidon Adventure” (1972) it thought I ought to stick to the maritime theme and watch this rather enjoyable, if pretty procedural smuggling yarn. Preston Foster has some charm as “Sully” and Irene Harvey some pluck as “Joan”, involved in an investigation by the US treasury department into a clever criminal operation that uses some pretty ingenious publicity stunts and willing tourists to distribute their illicit contraband. There’s plenty of chemistry between the two in the lead; it moves along at a fairly ripping pace – with the occasional bit of wit and the odd twist to keep it interesting. The ending isn’t up to much, and the romance between Foster and Harvey does, on occasion, clutter up the flow of the adventure, but an adventure it is – and at just over an hour is well worth a watch.”
The IMDb mess:
I decided to try joining IMDb if it didn’t involve much. It did. The initial setting up of login and pword was fine … then they wanted phone.
Why?
I clicked out. Reviews will be from here and there from now on.
One episode now and one film later … this below is a high demand series, who knows how long we have it for?
No particular point in running a review on such a well known tale and version of it … which is just as well as IMDb have shut down access to reviews and other details without paying them or going through hoops.
This post is more than just nostalgia … it’s a serious attempt to come to terms with what drivers are facing today. With the horrors of modern “compliant” vehicles, EVs, self-driving gimmicry etc. etc., many drivers are looking at c 2000-2010 as realistic cars to buy, get some years out of.
“If the UK joined the US as the 51st state. We would be the poorest state in the entire union. Mississippi which is portrayed at swamp dwelling hillbillies in majority of international media is above us. I don’t think people grasp how far we’ve fallen in real terms when it comes to GDP per capita. We’ve seen no growth for almost an entire generations. We’ve seen our productivity decrease and our tax increases. The average person on the UK, on £50,000 is less well off than your average Mississippi swamp dweller.”
Gov Tate Reeves, Mississippi:
“As we say in Mississippi, “Bless Your Heart.” Or as you say in the UK, “As-Salamu Alaykum.” …”
(Friday 2315) (0804) Looking a glorioius day out there for an hour or two. Not 100% in health, hopefully nothing terminal, chores day plus house issues, plus a bit of blogging … slowly. (Took a long time to complete this morning 0844)

a) French authorities have dismantled a large-scale network of sham marriages operating in the Val-de-Marne department and across the wider Île-de-France region….
b) As of April 1, 2026, 14.5% of inmates in French prisons are of African nationality, while they officially represent less than 4% of the resident population in France (Ministry of Justice / INSEE).
c) The effort to ‘AfD-proof’ Saxony-Anhalt is only the latest in a series of measures taken over recent months and years to weaken and marginalise the populists….
d) On April 15, Uruguayan President Yamandú Orsi signed the implementing decree for the law authorizing euthanasia, dubbed “death with dignity.”…
e) Migrants aren’t just pretending to be gay to stay in the UK—they’re also falsely claiming to be victims of domestic abuse.
2. (0623) At Lord Toby’s site
… the opener today is this text below:
“In this special episode of the Sceptic, host Laurie Wastell brings together four different perspectives on the growing problem of Muslim sectarianism in Britain. Guy Dampier of the Prosperity Institute shows how Pakistani clan structures led to the grooming gangs; researcher Daniel Dieppe highlights how the London Borough of Tower Hamlets fell to Bangladeshi-Muslim electoral corruption; the Critic‘sChris Bayliss looks at how state authorities responded to Birmingham’s banning of Israeli football fans; and journalist David Shipley and Laurie discuss what the Labour Government’s latest social cohesion plan shows about how it’s approaching multiculturalism’s pathologies.”
Now, being both totally disinterested, plus not interested in their internecine tribal warfare, the obvious question is who can nip it in the bud, from the City to the Sea? Which comes down to the council elections first, which should favour Reform in most cases, which means more of the same …
… or Restore, still a work in progress and many are still not “admitting it yet” except in conversation., certainly not in any official poll. That’s it for now.
“Magyar Péter Announces Resignation from the European Parliament. “The position of the European Parliament and mandate of the Hungarian Parliament are incompatible.””

Hearts of Oak: John Waters – Ireland’s Awakening: Fuel Protests, Government Crackdowns & the Real Cost of Replacement
Time Out wrote that “Less stylish than The Spy in Black, this espionage thriller is more fun, with its tongue-in-cheek plot revelling in Hitchcockian eccentricities”. Radio Times describes it as “A neat Second World War espionage thriller that depicts a London crawling with spies”.
Dennis Schwartz of Ozus’ World Movie Reviews had mixed feelings, giving it a grade of B−. “The brisk pace and its added touches of quaintness, made the film endearing inspite [sic] of the lack of any character study and the one-dimensional tone of the villains.” However, he wondered “mhow much better a more romantically inclined hero would have fared in his [Veidt’s] role.”[11]
