I appreciate a lot of people can't afford the upfront costs, so I did a bit of looking into options with zero upfront cost, in case helpful for anyone. Expect the Govt will announce more details on 0% loans for solar soon too

NASA just shared the closest image ever taken of Jupiter...

Each one of those swirls is a storm bigger than the entire Earth and going on for centuries. Let that sink in.

Keir Starmer actually put this in a briefing to Labour MPs of 'useful questions to ask' today. The PM knew of Mandelson's relationship Epstein when he appointed him.

And yet thinks he can still exploit the grief of the victims. This is why he is not fit to be Prime Minister.

Satellite images reveal scale of Israeli demolitions as Lebanese villages destroyed BBC Verify analysis found more than 1,400 buildings had been destroyed since 2 March.

It's easy to succumb to outrage fatigue. But this was four days ago. 2,000 killed. 1.2 million displaced. Entire villages demolished. A 40km 'buffer zone' (10% of Lebanon's territory) annexed. It's barely raised a resigned shrug, but it meets the criteria for war crime. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

πŸ‘€ BFMTV: A Dutch investigation showed you could track a warship with a €5 Bluetooth tag hidden in a letter, exposing a gap in military mail screening.

The device followed the frigate escorting the Charles de Gaulle across the Mediterranean before being found.

Has forensic managerial genius Sir Keir never heard of fat bribes? Because I'm pretty sure this could've been avoided by giving the guy a lot of money and an extra knobby title.

Earlier this week, I was asked to guest on a science podcast to dicuss the phenomenon of Imposter Syndrome

My immediate thought was "Crap, why are they asking me? I don't know what I'm doing!"

So yeah, I have some relevant insight

Unhappy to report the phishing one is quickly becoming a real problem now. Why go to the trouble of social engineering when people will just give up their ID, financial info, biometrics, etc. to an AV portal? There's no standards so how can you differentiate a fake one from a real one?

Lisa Nandy: In a rare moment of agreement, I agree with the hon. Gentleman that the gambling industry brings joy to a lot of people. He and I have discussed the harms that affect a minority of people. They are significant and important, but the industry as a whole brings positive benefits to the United Kingdom. I think he is underplaying the significant pressures on high street businesses that have existed over the last couple of decadesβ€”something that, frankly, his Government did absolutely nothing about over the 14 years that they were in government. We are dealing with those.

Really worth stressing what a minority position "the gambling industry is good" is.

Voting Reform is the equivalent of voting twice for Trump.
It is an act of pure ignorance, or racism, or both.
And, as we all know, it leads nowhere good.

Please god UK. Do not let that happen. Learn from our mistakes. Learn from America’s mistakes.
Just get your shit together.

It looks like the world is being wise about the world cup. I am an American, it is NOT SAFE for anyone here. They give idiots a gun, authority, and no training.

If I murder someone, I go to jail or worse. If ICE murders someone for no reason, they get praise from the president.

This isn't an accident. Winkle trans people out of public life, and they become socially invisible & increasingly marginalised. People don't ever see them, so they stop believing they are just ordinary people. They are forced to be poor, so get forced into the underclass society always detested.

You can’t get a more powerful inditement of Stonewall than this. A supposed LGBT+ charity being complemented by FWS should be the final nail in its coffin. In truth though, it abandoned trans people a long time ago.
