I love that the Leigh Leopards fans have approached the concept of tasteful attire and beaten it to death, stuffed it into a weighted sack, and tossed it into a canal.

A little quiet on #TOTW due to Easter and all that.
Here we go:
in the #NRL: it's #Manly's strong away win over the #Dolphins, giving them +46 on their rating. In #SuperLeague, #Warrington #Wolves dominating #Leigh #Leopards takes the spoils with +39; Finally, in the #Championship, #Newcastle #Thunder made +53 with a nice win over #Goole #Vikings. Thunder are underrated based on their recent weakness, so we might see them more often until their rating reaches a more accurate level. #rugbyleague

Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

And . . . Do Those Sheep Hallucinate Bullshit?

(AI Detective FAILS for Your Consideration)

Who is running this Artificial Intelligence? This Fatuous Forensic Criminology? This Whole Worldwide Factoid News Media?

May God Allied Mastercomputer help us!

I don’t want to hear any of the crap from the tech apologists who are going to cry, “Oh, that’s not AI; that’s just glorified autocomplete!”

Your problem, not mine.

If it’s calling itself “AI” or the humans who designed it have labeled it, “AI” – as you can clearly witness from the screen captures – then I judge it as AI.

So . . .

FAIL!

. . . Next!

. . . Another killer on the loose . . .

It ran so well last time, we're doing it again!

@leigh_hackspace is holding another electronic music and sounds day on 22nd of Feburary 2026.

Open to all, enthusasm more important than experience or ability.

Make noise, record it, play with others, see what happens. We would love to see you there.

Our last one had keyboards, computers, synths, guitars, brass and a didgeridoo.

Been a busy weekend.

Finished putting the roof on the new pod at @leigh_hackspace. We're almost done with this build. Far pod is rented, near pod is being used for metalworking (for now).

The build has been a group effort, and workshops should be back to their usual dysfunctional state, as opposed to the current non-functional state by the end of the week.

Main space, electronics, Pi room and social room are all still available.
