There’s amazing transcription software out there now, that can transcribe in 100s of languages and there’s also amazing translation capabilities for text with ChatGPT etc.

Combine the two and it’s pretty great at fast, and cheap. It’s approaching good too.

Nav got it done for me :facepunch:

Joined Air Fryer club yesterday and all i can think about today is…

Chicken legs, broccoli and a medley of root veg crisps for tea!

Upgraded ours on Black Friday to one with 2 drawers. Have only just found out how much I was missing out on.

I got a slow cooker for christmas last year which changed my life.

I hope I get one of these this year for max cooking automation (and be left with 0 unit space).

I also have an egg cooker which I use every week. Big gadget fan.

We got one the other day as well. We’d been after one for a while and they were reduced

Likewise, now in that club - being trying various marinaded meats plus the crisps outta anything. Two drawers is an ambition upgrade for 2024.

heyyyy it is what you make of it right? if you’re gonna make crap in it then fair enough (and air fryers are great for making tasty crap quickly) but even standard stuff like jacket potatoes come out extra-banging

As resident ADHD person @hugo is this portrayal correct? Should I go get assessed or something?

That’s not adhd. Probably OCD?

Fair, everyone is different. Just that I would ignore all those things until my wife has told me to fix them 20 times :joy:

Looks to me like perfectly normal behaviour for a middle aged man.

Everybody on this earth is on that “spectrum” it’s called being human. There is no diagnosis that fits us all, it’s just lots of chemicals all at unique levels making a concoction that determines who we are. That coupled with conditioning and experience makes us the freaky selves we are.

Had a 2nd round interview today for a job, which I feel I’ve got a pretty good chance of getting offered. The people seem nice, but it’s £5k less than I was on and the work isn’t that interesting. But, I need a job, so if I get offered it I’d take it.

But, this Friday I’ve also got an interview for a job I’d love, which is paying 10-15k a year more. It’d be a step up for me career wise as well, so definitely less chance of me actually getting it.

Theoretically, how bad would it be to accept a job and then give back word a week later if I somehow miraculously got the other job - if that situation was to happen? I know it’d be very annoying for the organisation, and it’d burn a bridge, but people do that right?

If it was me I’d probably just drag my heels a bit on accepting it until I heard from the other one.
