What should have happened: the REIT paid no tax but the Tice companies holding shares in the REIT paid £98k tax on the dividends they received. What actually happened: none of the companies paid any tax.

Our new report: Richard Tice signed accounts wrongly claiming £98,000 of tax exemptions

But I'll let you all know if my OpenClaw agent figures out how to buy itself a pair of socks. 🦞

Mostly I found it frankly rather galling that I was asked to submit a captcha multiple times during this process to prove that I was not a robot before I would be allowed to even look at accessories I might consider buying for my robot

So yeah. If you want to know what you can do with a humanoid robot, here is your answer. It is a business opportunity for Alibaba vendors.

Maybe they are real, maybe they are not. Who knows anymore?

Socks for a robot dog

Clothes for a Unitree G1 robot

Uh, a costume for a robot schoolgirl or maid or something?

A dust cover for a robot dog to resemble a New Year lion

But as I kept checking Aliexpress throughout the day, not only did I find more robots, I started to find a small but growing category of robot accessories

I have no idea what people might want to use the robots for in their lives, though there are viral videos of robots herding boars in Warsaw xcancel.com/edwardwarcho...

Soooooo after reading this story in @wired.com today and learning that Unitree's human robots are now on sale on Taobao and Aliexpress I got a bit obsessed with searching for them www.wired.com/story/unitre...

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Hadamard Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die."

People who lost their mind over whether Die Hard is a Christmas movie simply aren't ready to learn that the Tobey Maguire Spiderman is explicitly a Thanksgiving movie

Euro/Hungarian forint appreciating 1.8% to 367.97, the strongest level in four years

U.S. dollar/Hungarian forint appreciating 1.5% to 315.02, the firmest since January and close to its strongest level in four years

A Goldman Sachs research note titled Hungary: Opposition Tisza Party Wins Decisive Victory in Hungarian Parliamentary Elections Bottom Line: Preliminary results indicate a decisive victory for the opposition Tisza party in Hungary’s parliamentary elections, bringing an end to Viktor Orban’s Fidesz party’s 16-year rule. With 98% of votes counted, Tisza is projected to secure 138 seats (or 69% of the 199-seat parliament), Fidesz is projected to win 55 seats, and the far-right Our Homeland (Mi Hazánk) party has gained 6 seats. All other parties failed to surpass the 5% threshold required for parliamentary representation. With a two-thirds 'super-majority', Tisza will have the power to amend Hungary's constitution and govern with limited institutional constraints. Following Tisza’s win, we anticipate an immediate improvement in EU-Hungary relations and a complete resumption of EU funding. Hungarian assets have reacted positively to the news in early trading, with the Forint trading close to 2% stronger than Friday's close, despite a strengthening of the Dollar and higher oil prices.

The Hungarian forint surges against the euro and the dollar in Asian trading as Viktor Orban loses power to the centre-right Tisza party in Sunday's election after 16 years in office. Goldman Sachs expects an "immediate improvement" in relations with Brussels and a complete resumption of EU funding.
