  1. 🚀 Wow, the Stateless MCP has apparently "recaptured" someone's interest—must be a slow news day! 😴 Apparently, tweaking acronyms and adding ".0" to things is still a revolutionary concept in the tech world. 🎉 Spoiler: It'll be forgotten faster than "Move fast and break things." 🐢💔

  2. 🐢 Slow news day alert! It seems Google News has devolved into a shrimp boat run by Forrest Gump, where the only thing more predictable than the crash is the inevitable regurgitation of old #headlines. 🚢💥 So next time you're fishing for news, prepare to catch a whole lot of nothing. 🦐📉

  3. I was tempted to save this for #Caturday, but it is obviously a slow news day (Burnham must be relieved the press can find distractions and play with themselves harmlessly).

    The ‘Downing Street Cat’ looks on unimpressed while a group of journalists crowd around to photograph a dead mouse (presumably something he is saving for lunch).

  4. This hits me as a slow news day item. Like, Portlanders not knowing about Nanaimo or their bars is pretty likely about the same number of Little Rockers who don't know how to spell Kansas City or know they're famous for barbecue...

  5. McDonald's CEO awkwardly ate the Big Arch. So Burger King's CEO showed him how to eat a Whopper.

    Now I'm craving Burger King!!!

  6. At some point this morning, a leetle, teeny bird flew into our apartment from the lanai.

    It ended up confused, or chilling, and occasionally cornered upstairs by our vaguely interested and half-assed predator Anu.
    After a few hours, the deft use of a swiffer broom, and some strategic door closing, I managed return the lil' critter to the world outside.

  7. Yeah, except... "Defendnot requires admin privileges where it can inject its DLL into a system process..."

    And... "Defender is... detecting & quarantining Defendnot..."

  8. Oh, look! Another epic quest for #knowledge that ends with a #faceplant 🤦: 400 reasons not to use Microsoft Azure! Because obviously, reading a novella of Azure gripes is exactly what every developer dreams of doing on a cozy weekend. Must be a slow news day 🙄.

  9. Only just taken in that Blackmagic Design (Australian manufacturer of cinema cameras) bought Fairlight (Australian makers of iconic sampling instrument that defined a lot of pop music in the 80s and latterly makers of computerised music mixing hardware and software) back in 2016. Got my finger on the river of news me eh?

  10. Lead story on 11am hourly news report was that it is now 2024 in New Zealand. #SlowNewsDay

  11. Not a #SlowNewsDay in US CONgress, but there's a WHOLE slew of stuff they don't want you to know until after the votes, so... @thehill reaches a new journalistic low. 🤣

  12. Phew!

    I'm SO relieved that the Tech Bros and Silicon Valley billionaires managed to get out of a muddy puddle after releasing a shit ton more CO2 into the atmosphere.

    Not.

    I mean, really, the TOP story, the most important thing that #bbc has to tell us all about this morning?

  13. Peak slow news season on CBC Radio in Nova Scotia as item on unusual rubber boot found buried in garden leads to invitation to phone in with unusual items you have found buried. Hoping Leicester parking lot people phone in about Richard III.

  15. Put some new strings on the wee Gibson L1. Newtone 12-54 80/20s. Not sure they sound as good as the John Pearse mediums I had on before but sometimes a new set of strings need a couple of days to settle in. It’s been a slow news day. #acoustic #acousticguitar #guitar #gibsonguitar #SlowNewsDay
