@cachondo #BBC executives' modified mission statement "Infiltrate, Aggravate, Rehabilitate"

#Gove


@cachondo i chose the cheaper but less satisfying instant "off" button. Still wondering which criterion out of "inform, educate & entertain" that #BBC chiefs think giving #Gove free airtime meets.


Who at the #BBC made the decision to give a platform to "Hello. I'm Michael Gove...."?

Was it Tory Tim, the DG? Or maybe Robbie Gibb on the Board, former propagandist to Theresa May?

We've only just got rid of the odious Vote Leave creep, because he was too cowardly to face his constituents.

He's an EMPLOYEE of the owner of GBNews, and editor of the Tory in-house magazine. Let him use those platforms to try & rehabilitate himself. Not our licence-funded state broadcaster.

V #BBC Shaimaa Khalil:
The Japanese firm which apparently makes the walkie-talkies says production on that model stopped 10 years ago.

Icom describes the IC-V82 as a handheld radio which was exported to the Middle East from 2004 to 2014 and has not been shipped since then. The manufacturing of the batteries has also stopped, it says.

The company says it isn't possible to confirm whether the IC-V82s that exploded in yesterday's attacks were shipped directly from Icom, or via a distributor.

This is the Llava:34B LLLM (local large language model) running on my #MacBook Pro describing a #screenshot from #BBC News. This, to me, is as good info as #BeMyAI would provide using #GPT4, so it goes to show that we can do this on-device and have some really meaningful results. Screenshot attached, #AltText contains the description.
Lately, I've taken to using this to describe images instead of using GPT, even if it takes a little longer for results to come back. I consider this to be quite impressive.

Yes, twitter really did mockingly label the Canadian national broadcaster CBC as "69% Government-funded Media".

Similar broadcasters like the BBC and Australia's ABC surely have to follow CBC and stop using twitter, now that its toxic clown of an owner has shown what contempt he has for them.

If he is prepared to use his platform to paint childish graffiti on their accounts, I can't see why any serious entity would want to have anything to do with twitter.

Just wow. The #BBC is often bad but this has got to be a new low. A subeditor needs to reflection their life, ASAP.

I was listening to the #BBC's #DigitalPlanet this morning & happy to get the tip of downloading & archiving your data from #Twitter.

You can see how to do it here help.twitter.com/en/managing-y…

You need to "Request an Archive" but it is worthwhile doing, especially if you have invested a lot in that legacy platform.
