How utterly depressing is the technology page of BBC News. Feeling far from "informed, educated and entertained."

And so it begins. Prime Minister Andy Burnham lands at JFK in New York ahead of the #UNGA. Lots to expect, including his first face to face meeting with Trump.

One thing I have not been testing until today is macOS 27 Golden Gate. There being two Siri icons on my dock (trigger + chat app) is stressing me out so much. So much for attention to detail Apple 🥲

BBC News to get new graphics and music from mid-September 2026 👀 Meanwhile, really loving the new BBC Breakfast presentation, it’s gone from one of the ugliest shows to one of the prettiest. If only they’d do something about that awful red sofa that clashes with everything. It is not that iconic 🥴

Gallery of BBC Breakfast new presentation, with images of new graphics, which use purple and orange gradients, rounded edges and glassy elements.

A genuinely baffling cultrual difference discovery in Australia

In Australia, ordering a "mug" vs. a "cup" is a standard and explicit menu choice at cafes to get a larger serving size of coffee, whereas in the UK, a standard hot drink is already served in a default mug while the terms are used interchangeably.

Her name being Karen is soooooooo funny

Tweet from Karen which says “@BBCBreakfast you need to get rid of these new graphics they are awful and are ruining a great programme you have turned into ITV and it wasn't needed. Just drop the big graphics when the report is running it takes up half the screen just awful.”

I don’t think CrossCountry needs a power outage for mass Sunday cancellations. Sounds like a regular day.

Train operator CrossCountry will run a full train service on Monday following major disruption to services across the country.
The operator said it plans to run a "very limited number of trains" from around 18:00 BST on Sunday evening, and a full service on Monday.
It comes after a power outage affected its control centre in Birmingham, resulting in mass cancellations across the network on Sunday.

I find it so soothing that GB News has never made profit 🥰 But I find it deeply disturbing that Ofcom have done nothing about where that money is ending up.

In the financial year to May 2023, GB News' losses were six times greater than revenue. In the year 2022-23, it had on average 295 employees, up from 175 in 2021-22.

In April 2024, the company started its first major redundancy exercise, with 40 roles to be removed. In the year to May 2025, GB News made a loss of £22.1 million, but grew revenue by 58 percent to £26.2 million. In that year, it cut its wage bill by nearly £3 million, reducing its employee count from 311 to 263.

GB News' 2025 annual report stated that due to "strong support from its investors", the company's directors "have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future".

In July 2026, GB News announced plans to cut more than one third of its workforce.

By February 2024, GB News had paid more than £660,000 to Conservative MPs, compared to £1,100 to Labour MPs.

Between July 2024 and June 2026, GB News paid more than £1,000,000 to Reform MPs, including £700,000 to Nigel Farage, significantly more than his salary as an MP.

In March 2026, Labour MP Liam Byrne accused GB News of being part of a new "media-political complex" used by a few wealthy donors to buy political influence and support right-wing politicians.

Such a brilliant quote from @billmckibben.bsky.social: “Sunlight travels 93 million miles to reach the earth, but none of those miles go through the Strait of Hormuz.”

Transcript from Bill McKibben’s TED talk which reads : “Imagine a world where hydrocarbons no longer equal wealth and power.
Imagine how many fewer wars and coups and terrorist plots we would have seen in the last century if oil had been of trivial value. As this spring has reminded us, humans are all too good at starting wars. But even for us, figuring out how to fight one over sunshine will be tricky.
Sunlight travels 93 million miles to reach the earth, but none of those miles go through the Strait of Hormuz.”

There is something so unbelievably cool about an aircraft that came from Australia flying near Nottingham. To think this will be normal in October 2027!
