This is your semi-regular reminder that pensioner poverty: a) is real b) is significantly less prevalent than working-age poverty and half the rate of child poverty, and c) is such that a pensioner is statistically more likely to live in a household worth over £1 million than to live in poverty

The FCDO also pays about £4.2m to access a wide range of papers including NYT, WSJ. Newsflash - it costs money for large organisations to access media. And they probably should pay for it, esp since individuals don't anymore www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/02730...

Firefox just got a redesign with round tabs, new themes, and Compact Mode
Will you be using Firefox after the redesign?

There's that gay that does the "avi" videos once a year and it annoys me because I highly doubt he's using the .avi video container format. Almost definitely using .mp4

I know there is a hell of a lot going on right now. But not all of it is bad. Some is astonishingly good - like the results of this study from June. Cervical cancer is a terribly cruel thing. This might, at long last, be the beginning of the end of it. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
BBC News headline "Young women now have 'close to zero' risk of cervical cancer death after HPV jab"

Google finally updated some of its satellite images of Gaza and my god, it's horrific. The entirety of Rafah has been demolished. The majority of Khan Younis is in ruins. Entire towns completely leveled and erased of the map.

Nuclear is neat and I am sure it has a lot of potential, but in 20 years we've built 30GW wind, 21GW solar, 7.5GW batteries and -6GW of nuclear. But it has lots of potential!!

Btw if you want a relatively normal search function again, DuckDuckGo does a good job. And you can set it up so that if you're unable to find what you're looking for, you can THEN ask an AI to help with a single button tap.
