A quick update: I'm doing WFH shifts editing video scripts for the South China Morning Post, and I'm also studying Korean again. Ideally I'll be able to revive enough to understand K-drama, but for the time being, my limit is set at understanding Peppa Pig.

This always brings back memories of working in the BBC Business and Economics Unit in the early 1990s, when MTV was still a novelty, and we were lucky enough to have it on our bank of TVs. We also used to watch Kabaddi on Channel 4 in the afternoons.

I thought I'd try Microsoft's Copilot AI to see if could help me in reporting on Chinese influence on Taiwan's presidential election. It made two whopper mistakes. The election is on January 13, not 11. And President Tsai has already served two terms and therefore cannot stand again.

Ooh. We won a toaster in our condo Xmas draw. And it has an attachment to warm croissants gently.
