Books, bikes & Bica’s are the road to salvation.

It's customary to involve both warring parties in a peace agreement. Otherwise it's called a victory.

US and Russian officials draft plan to end Ukraine war based on capitulation from Kyiv It is unclear if Trump administration backs deal that would mean Kyiv giving up territory and slashing size of military

Would Trump have negotiated a peace deal with Nazi Germany allowing it to keep all the territory it invaded?

This is the most disturbing and distasteful use of AI that I've seen.

It's quite horrific. Instagram should take it down.

Same here, Richard. And here's what baffles me - despite the widespread concern about sugar in the diet, children at school are given sweets as rewards.

My 12 year old son doesn't eat sweets, and sometimes I feel like The Grinch.

Ultra-processed food linked to harm in every major human organ, study finds World’s largest scientific review warns consumption of UPFs poses seismic threat to global health and wellbeing

We are poisoning ourselves and our children.

'In the UK and US, more than half the average diet now consists of Ultra Processed Foods.'

Loved those cars.

Exactly! Two extra days off a week in the three day weeks.

I was a civil servant in 1977 and they had scratchy toilet rolls at the DTI in Victoria Street with HMSO lovingly printed on each sheet. Halcyon days.

I’m old enough to remember when they did this for real.

Then please explain how it works.

You are partially right: it’s as flawed as the people behind it. On top of that, factor in bad coding and flawed decisioning processes. Then consider how open the LLM is to data sources. How is the data verified?

There’s a list???

Reform council cuts back on litter picking and gardening in bid to fill shortfall Measures underline financial realities facing party after its first six months in local government

Councils must also use fewer paper clips and re-use toilet paper.

Where does its medical expertise come from?

It’s quite clear that Mamdani is uhm… well he’s obviously, uhm, and there’s no doubt in my mind.

A reformed character, you might say.

A red elephant 😉🤔

It’s 10-14 but fluid. The Russia -Ukraine war has been reduced to Poltova-Northern Union. I’ve written a few books but I wrote this because my son is a prolific reader and there’s not much out there with an autistic central character.

👍 Afternoon hereabouts 😉😊

My son is autistic, Pablo. I wrote this book for young adults—in part to understand, and in part to explain to others in an entertaining way.

It is 2005, the internet is a distributed network of servers designed so that no one outage can take down the entire network

It is 2025, the internet relies on three companies, problems with any one of which can cripple a significant proportion of the global economy

Who ever thought Cloudflare was a good idea?

From Germany: "The UK wants to abolish the obligation to support asylum seekers that became EU law in 2005. UK had 84,200 asylum applications in 2024. From 2011 – 2020 (before Brexit) the average was 27,500 applications per year. By comparison, in Germany, 250,945 people applied for asylum in 2024."

I was working it out. I haven’t uncontrollably laughed at anything for 37.23 years.

Which is not funny.

It may have been caused by Chinese infiltration, MI5 warns.
