Closing time depends on what type of Post Office it is. If it's what the Post Office calls a Drop and collect, then they open at 7am, close at 10:30pm. If it's with a WHSmith, then they close at the same time as WHSmith.

Same shit again! Cannot get access to the Post Office drop off point. Lying bastards it's within a WH Smiths which was open.

They just hand parcels to local couriers anyway once they reach the UK. With the added possibility that anything electrical bought from either of those might burn your house down thanks to China's laissez-faire approach to safety regulations.

They used to be fine here too. Now I've had 3 failed deliveries from a 'Prime' customer.

It depends where you are. Amazon are fine here. Evri are usually OK. Yodel also OK. The names I dread (currently) are DPD, DHL and UPS.

Amazon are bloody useless! We have no problem delivering your parcel IF YOU DON'T MIND SOME RANDOM EMPLOYEE BANGING ON YOUR DOOR AT 10PM AT NIGHT! I've started sending my deliveries to a local Post Office...So they turn up after the Post Office is closed!

Thought I'd have ago at using AI to generate an avatar

Well I think that the AI engine I used needs a little more practice. Asked it to generate a Western European Jackdaw, and this is what it came up with.

That isn't a Jackdaw.
If you've dug yourself into a hole. Just keep digging. You're bound to come out the other side eventually.

Looks the same(ish) though, maybe it is and its just had a rough day! :D

I always put crows and jackdaws as the same thing generally, I know they are separate (But related).

All I know is if one of the little sods keeps on shitting on my decking it'll end up with a 6mm airsoft pellet up its hoop!

I used AI the other week to create a retro image of Scramble cross with defender it gave me Ronaldo tackling a defender!? ::)

I had a play with it today to do some coding, and, well, for all its shininess and conversational "skills", by heck, it doesn't have throw you in loops mind, I told it off a good few times, lol...

Me: You cannot declare arrays like that, you need to use DIM

It: Your right, BlitzPlus uses the DIM keyword to declare arrays, I'll fix that for you now, hold tight

Dim array[10,10]

Me: Blitz arrays don't use square brackets, just curly ones.

It: Your right, BlitzPlus uses parentheses for arrays not square brackets... I'll fix that for you now!

*Displays code and we continue*

Further on...

Me: Can you implement [something else]

It: Thats a great idea... Lines of balony later... Here's the updated version of the full source with [something else] added...

Me: You cannot declare arrays like that BlitzPlus uses Dim

Your right, BlitzPlus uses the DIM keyword to declare arrays, I'll fix that for you now, hold tight

Dim array[10,10]

Me: Blitz arrays don't use square brackets, just curly ones.

Your right, BlitzPlus uses parentheses for arrays not square brackets... I'll fix that for you now, do you want [something else added]

And, a long slog later, I ended up just closing it, I couldnt be chewed... And I'll be honest, it would of been quicker if I wrote the code meself!

So aye... Not as "intelligent" as it makes out, but hats off, excellent for having a bit craic with! :D lol

Well look on the bright side. At least it wasn't trying to put mammary glands into the code. ;D

You right... Do you want me to output the full source code... With a bonus image of an AI generated pair of boobies?

Me: Go on then!

AI has a long way to go yet. I wonder if the Quantum Processors in a neural network will be any better. :-X

They must use AI in Macdonalds

Well this is the closest I've seen yet. But still not a Jackdaw.

Well it does a better job when you want it in a cartoon style.
