Read: Shrines of Gaiety by Kate Atkinson ★★★★☆ 📚
1920’s London, mad night life, huge cast of unique and surprising characters tangled in a web of crime(s). Very funny, gets so complex there is a lot of tying up of loose ends in the last couple of chapters.

Lovely father’s day walk from Stronachlachar round the west end of Loch Katrine. warm day, but good breeze and not much in the way of hills made for pleasant stroll. lots to see. More photos.

Quoted Strap on that Jetpack, Fly Over the Dead Bird in the Road (cogdogblog.com)
I’m no super billionaire businessman, but to cut off the world’s largest web publishing platform from adding content to your product is— dumb ass to the nth degree.

Liked Stacks by tommy tommy (peatstacks.uk)

An audiovisual exploration of the past, present and futures of three peatlands: Bodmin Moor, Dartmoor and Exmoor.

Rather lovely mix of video, music & voices on peatland.

A gif of Jetpack Ai creating text. The text typed reads: "H5P is a free and open-source content collaboration framework based on JavaScript. It allows educators and content creators to easily create, share, and reuse interactive HTML5 content such as presentations, quizzes, games, and more. The H5P content can be embedded on any website and it is compatible with various e-learning platforms like Moodle, Canvas, and WordPress."

A quick test of Jetpack’s AI assistant. I asked it about H5P because I’ve been using and writing a bit about it recently.
