The replies to this post look more like X/Twitter than early Bluesky. Unfortunately, it seems the shitposters, trolls, and attack dogs have now migrated.

I think I'd take this story a bit more seriously if Jeff Bezos didn't own the Washington Post. Yes, I can see that it would help some people, but it's also a way to encourage the sale of both formats to more customers.

Nice. Includes many reasons why I rarely listen to anybody's damned podcast.

Why I Hate Your Podcast Bill Wyman hates your podcast. Not for one thing it does. Nor for two. But for twenty three reasons.

Every podcaster should read this article regularly.

Looks good to me. Just a fusion variant of a filled Yorkshire pudding. Where can I try one?

The website is a bit OTT. What's wrong with a simple list of documents, and links to illustrations?

As the researchers note, getting evidence for this type of activity is usually difficult (or impossible), using most of the other “radiation detection methods” used in the lab.

But use the right method, and here it is - for all to see.

A simple and elegant experiment - well executed, and clearly written-up.

The evidence for nuclear effects, within metal lattices, following the absorption of hydrogen atoms, has long been argued about. (n.b. "Hydrogen embrittlement" is still not understood.)

A perverse inversion of the "Prisoner's Dilemma".

Nathan Gill pleading guilty and being sentenced to 10.5 yrs for accepting Russian bribes should have been enough to take down the party completely - but like Trump, they play by different rules.

If they were ever to reach govt they'd weaponise the rule of law against us, again just like Trump.

This is part of the oddly named "Mrs Sunderland Festival". Details here: www.mrssunderlandfestival.com

There is already a pedestrian underpass, beneath the ring road. It was closed for a few years, but is now fully open again.

If you are a "senior citizen", like me, why not re-live your youth at a Daytime Disco? Huddersfield town hall is running one on the afternoon of Friday 20th February, as part of the "Mrs.S Festival".

Phrases used by characters in plays are rarely original. The phrase has to to be recognisable (or will be misheard by the audience), and has to serve a semiotic purpose signposting class and personality. It suggests it was already in circulation, amongst a certain class, and has been lost.

If you want to following along with the Artemis II WDR, i've created this little tool that displays the WDR timeline and live-streams, try it out here x37b.nl/artemis/
