Celebrating the sixth anniversary of one of the best puns to ever come out of either Twitter or Covid.

A tweet from ITV News that “Strictly Come Dancing contestant HRVY tests positive for coronavirus”, retweeted by Fourfoot with the post “He needs A and E.”

You can tell exactly when Poland became a major power in European politics, because EU institutions very suddenly started calling history's most famous female physicist by a double-barrelled name

ngl its crazy how there was a whole humanoid canid subspecies that died out in the middle ages because they overwhelmingly converted to christianity, became monks/nuns, most took vows of celibacy, and now no one talks about them???

Cannot get over the beauty of this GIF: it’s Zidane celebrating last night after Olise scored a last minute winner for France. It looks like something from a movie or a high-end fashion advert. Probably the most elegant footballer of all time.

Great moments in Scottish engineering history: James Watt tries to work out how his phone attaches to his selfie stick.

Statue of James Watt. In his right hand he holds a telescopic stick with a frame at the top; in his left he holds a flat object about the size of a large smartphone. He is scowling at the possibly-not-a-smartphone as if he is tempted to yeet it into the sea. On that basis, it probably _is_ a phone.

I'm an AI skeptic, but it's very clear as soon as you drill down into Techbro's claims about it coming for white collar jobs, that by "engineering" they very specifically mean "writing code". Not the... Uh .... Hundreds of other engineering disciplines and sub-disciplines out there

Because all search is terrible now, does anyone have a recommendation for an iPhone case that also has a charging port cover? Otterbox is the only one coming up, but looks like the nicer ones aren't available in Europe (or are only on Amazon) - am I missing obvious other places to look?

You should assume anything you put on the web is vulnerable to being deleted overnight and plan accordingly. So many companies also don't seem to realise Twitter/Facebook/Instagram are innaccessble now to people without an account. Your menu is in three pinned posts? Can't see any of them.

Morning. Last week I found out for the first time that Champion The Wonder Horse (stalwart black and white 50s schedule filler up to 1993) was a spin-off. Champion was Gene Autry’s horse, and it was a 1955 cash in on the success of the Gene Autry Show. He’s like horse Frasier.

Slovakia will line up 1 rider while having 4 places. None of the Slovak pros was available (injured, and Kubis was needed at his team) so to avoid a devaluation of Slovak nationals next year, they start with soigneur Vladimír Kováčik who hasn't raced UCI level since 2017 www.rtbf.be/article/un-r...
