Did you know there was a system called Red Box for the BBC Micro that enabled you to turn home appliances off and on using your computer? So, basically, an early version of HomeKit, etc.
In 1986.

Die #RedBox in Nürnberg war so freundlich, uns für den abgesagten Gig im Februar einen Ersatztermin anzubieten. Besten Dank an Stephanie dafür. Wir sind also am 05.12.2026 dort und begeben uns bald in Isolation, um nicht wieder krank zu sein. 😉

"A DSIT spokesperson told New Scientist: “No one should be spending time on something AI can do better and more quickly. Built in Whitehall, Redbox is helping us harness the power of AI in a safe, secure, and practical way – making it easier for officials to summarise documents, draft agendas and more. This ultimately speeds up our work and frees up officials to focus on shaping policy and improving services – driving the change this country needs.”
But the use of generative AI tools concerns some experts. Large language models have well-documented issues around bias and accuracy that are difficult to mitigate, so we have no way of knowing if Redbox is providing good-quality information. DSIT declined to answer specific questions about how users of Redbox avoid inaccuracies or bias.
“My issue here is that government is supposed to serve the public, and part of that service is that we – as taxpayers, as voters, as the electorate – should have a certain amount of access to understanding how decisions are made and what the processes are in terms of decision-making,” says Catherine Flick at the University of Staffordshire, UK.
Because generative AI tools are black boxes, Flick is concerned that it isn’t easy to test or understand how it reaches a particular output, such as highlighting certain aspects of a document over others. The government’s unwillingness to share that information further reduces transparency, she says.
That lack of transparency extends to a third government department, the Treasury."

Redbox, the DVD rental box company, went kaput earlier last year, leaving more than 24,000 machines abandoned across the country. @404mediaco’s @jasonkoebler takes a look at the efforts to remove and dispose of them. “The unceremonious end of Redbox is a reminder of how much stuff we make and buy, and how, when companies fail to plan for end-of-life or go out of business, they often leave a bunch of devices that suddenly become e-waste behind,” he writes.
