I’m not abandoning this place entirely - I still get value from the tweets of brands such as tech accounts & some personal ones even though most people rarely post now.
But I’m here a lot less these days & you’re more likely to find me on BlueSky - marcsettle.Bsky.social. 💙🦋

Babe wake up - the latest set of weird AI photos of Farage and the Bank of England governor just dropped.

My entire feed is either THOSE adverts of Farage attacking the Governor of the Bank of England on Question Time…or people complaining about seeing nothing but those ads.
Such a joy!

As if Nigel Farage appearing on Question Time every other week wasn't bad enough, this app is now flooded with AI slop of him appearing on it too. Ta Elon.

Advertising must be going well for Musk if every single ad I’m seeing is an AI fake of Farage and the governor of the Bank Of England arguing/fighting/being arrested on Question Time ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Apple has been introducing new apps with almost every major iOS update.
What app do you think they'll add with iOS 27? 👀

Gracias a esas putas series de Disney , ahora no hay razón lógica para que los sobrevivientes de la Orden 66 no se reorganizaran y trajeran la rebelión mucho antes.
Give me your best Star Wars nitpicks. No reasonable criticisms or analysis, I'm talking real pedantic here.

And this is why preventing phone calls when filming is important. Prince William nearly lost his chance to capture Aston Villa lifting the Europa League trophy.
(But at least he was recording landscape)

Had @LeighMilnerTV not flagged up this had come from an iPhone, I doubt anyone would have thought anything about it. #mojo

Quite the ambiguous phrasing there from the @WSJ.
Did no-one read this before pressing send?

How long do you think I can continue to force close Twitter every time I get this, before I’m forced to accept the new Terms?
It must be seven weeks already I’ve been doing it.

Call me cynical but is filming an apple on a tree for two seconds really the BEST way to demonstrate what a timelapse can do? But kudos to the guy who did this and then had the confidence to upload it to SkillShare as part of a mojo training course.

Impressive updates to the first app which lets you record landscape and portrait at the same time.

Who wants to play a game of “which app was the *original* landscape and portrait recording at the same time” app?

Yes we can send humans back to the Moon but has no-one managed to invent a microphone that can cope with the noise of a rocket taking off…?
