1st World Problem Alert: I just learned that Apple have dropped support for FireWire in their latest OS Tahoe. I learned the hard way. Connected my scanner to my new Mac mini running Sequoia and all fine. Updated the Mac to Tahoe and nothing. Now I do film photography.

This is why nothing ever sticks. It's a cult like, Dunning Krugeresque faith system that attracts highly opinionated people who have "decided already" that they are right and who "believe what they see" rather than acquainting themselves with facts.

Britain, a trading nation, now has a vital choice to make about its priority trading partners: - the EU, where agreements are made, kept, reciprocal, based on international norms, & enforced by a court - the USA, where agreements are made, broken, changed & broken again at a whim, with no recourse

I watched the Blue Origin rocket with a sense of sadness. That these rôle models for women & girls were such a triumph of cosmetics over competence. Women have no limits, but this lot managed to make it about hair and makeup. Then I read this Guardian article. What an amazing read.

The total cut off of deliveries to Ukraine is shockingly punitive. This is money already spent, equipment already built by industry for Ukraine, much of it has little utility to the US military. And it is just going to be sitting there in warehouses idle, as Ukrainian forces fight on.

This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II. Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.
