The only party in Wales to vote against making it illegal to lie on elections was Reform. Reform thinks it ok to lie. 🤥🤔

The President of the United States is once again threatening to destroy civilian infrastructure, including objects indispensable to civilian survival, as an act of collective punishment. All States must condemn this madness and act now to end this lawless war.

To whoever did this at the #NoKings in Boston: Thank you.❤️ It made me tear up. And we must to be reminded of needless damage to humanity that results directly from the careless, bellicose bluster coming from the Pentagon and White House.

Mine started as 16K but I upgraded by inserting actual chips (9 of them IIRC) into the expansion sockets on the circuit board. Thrilling times! Next upgrade was the “Plus” keyboard.

If you use GitHub (especially if you pay for it!!) consider doing this *immediately* Settings -> Privacy -> Disallow GitHub to train their models on your code. GitHub opted *everyone* into training. No matter if you pay for the service (like I do). WTH github.com/settings/cop...

Not sure if you meant that rhetorically but yes, a few short weeks ago this year’s statement reported it was 85 seconds to midnight, but I rather think they need to reassess it weekly if not daily now.

Attention BBC and Daily Mail newsdesks. It is being reliably reported that Reform UK MP Richard Tice dodged a £600,000 tax bill. Where's the media coverage?

🤔 The reason the world is going to hell in a handcart is that gross #inequality vomits up very bad people to positions of political and corporate power. 🤮 Our best defences are to reduce #inequality and to strengthen our democracies and our institutions, everywhere and always... 👍♥️✊

I too backed ED in the Kickstarter in 2012 and have played on and off since 2014. It’s great that it’s still going strong but somehow the original Elite on my ZX Spectrum (and later on Amstrad CPC 6128) still felt more immersive. I wish I could capture that feeling again.

🚨 If Reform can’t run Worcestershire… how can they run Britain? Nigel Farage now says Reform “regret” taking control of Worcestershire County Council. No one forced them to stand. They campaigned on cutting waste and reducing taxes.

He died on my mother-in-law’s birthday - not that I hold her responsible 🤭 but somehow it’s only when I reached “today years old” that I find he was born on my own mother’s birthday. That’s weird.

I and two of my mates used to spend hours and hours (and yet more hours) in a small independent games store run by a lovely chap, Frank, above a hairdressers shop (run by his daughter). IIRC, Frank’s son was part of and possibly even the founder of Durell Software.

How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

📢 THANK YOU to all our followers. We've just hit the 4.4k mark. Welcome to the new folks. Please continue to help us spread the word that greater #equality is essential, not only as justice for humanity but also as the bedrock on which we can build sustainable living within planetary limits. 👍♥️✊

Famous internet meme from Melissa McEwan that states "billionaire" is not a qualification. It is the description of a person who is hoarding more resources than they could use in 100 lifetimes while other people are starving. It's the name for a human dragon sleeping on its pile of rubies and gold.

45 years! Say it ‘ain’t so! I didn’t have a ZX81 but one of my friends lent me his for a couple of days. I was hooked and begged my parents for the then soon-to-be released ZX Spectrum not long after and the rest is truly history.

I did not, especially an illegal war. Starmer has overstepped massively. If (when) civilians start being killed through attacks launched from UK he will have blood on his hands as far as I’m concerned.

If the laws that govern how entire states, countries and governments behave and interact with each other don’t matter now, as seems increasingly to be the case, why should literally any law matter any more?

Yes! And regarding Step 1, there are also alternatives to Google.

CEOS for Bernie @LiberalCEO
Find a cool product on Amazon?
That company exists OFF Amazon, too.
1) Google company name.
2) Order from their site.
2a) Can usually find a 10% code!
3) Still get product in 2-8 days.
4) Company avoids losing 25% margin share to Amazon.
5) You avoid giving money to Bezos.
