So, Banksy bought a used yacht, repaired it and retrofitted it to serve as a rescue boat to save migrants in the central Mediterranean. The whole project cost the artist $860,000. Since 2020, the boat has saved more than 3,800 people. londondaily.com/banksy-funds...

PSA: Solar panels and in-roof trays are cheaper than tiles, and have been for a very long time. Stop tiling roofs, and use Solar panels instead.

Continued use of AI without a drive for efficiency can certainly prevent snow in Davos from ever appearing again, though!

I want to believe it but one huge advantage of bicycles is that you don't get stuck looking at shops whilst the road unblocks. I cycle a lot, and it's A to B or a scenic route, not impulse buying from shops I whizz past. I love the ideal, but it's a dream not reality. Ban cars from high streets.

Increase, not create. You can't just hope that shops form on other roads because you put a cycle lane there. But yes, cycle lanes are a boost to local business, not only because you can *see* the shops vs having cars block them!

antony @antony.is · 15/09/2026
I don't think cycle lanes create significant shop footfall, most cyclists are just passing through. These properly segregated cycle lanes are already great, no need to send cyclists on a permanent back street detour.

There isn't (or wasn't a docker desktop) for Linux. I still don't have one, and the cli is perfect. Docker desktop is just a macism and I'm convinced it's a mistake. They should just vibe-delete it.

I don't know if it's a strategy, it's a symptom of being an incredibly populated capital in a tiny ancient country with roads designed for horses. But yes, here for it, in every city, and everywhere else.

30km is absolute child's play on a bicycle, let alone an ebike. The issue here is a lack of infrastructure. Nothing for humans, just a shit highway for a country plagued by a historical decision to succumb to the automobile industry.

Hey drivers: I need you to understand that when you get to an intersection and there's a cyclist crossing in front of you, even if YOU know you see them, there's a good chance THEY don't know you do. Come to a fucking stop till they cross. Stop fucking rolling at them. Fucksake.
