I’m a civil engineer and a project manager. I’m an aspiring polyglot and a sucker for good fiction. Please let this be better than before.

I have and will continue to. But you know why I say it here ? Because @bsky.app is 30m strong and growing quickly. The collective wisdom and influence of users here is far greater than any individual democrat. I can't say it enough. Bluesky can be the influence that can counter RW media.

He wants so desperately to be profound, but instead this stuff comes across as super weird and uncomfortable.

In 1979, Jimmy Carter installed solar panels on the White House. In 1986, Ronald Reagan tore them down along w/Carter’s clean energy funding. This sums up the difference between the two men & political parties. Investing in solutions for the future vs canceling progress to score political points.

For Maths fans, 2025 is a square. 45² = 45 x 45 = 2025 Also, 9² x 5² = 2025 40² + 20² + 5² = 2025 My favourite? 1³+2³+3³+4³+5³+6³+7³+8³+9³ = 2025 #Mathematics #teaching #education

I believe this was tested under certain conditions. People who listen to audiobooks usually like to multitask like cook or drive or even work which is where the problem lies. Audiobooks are equal to reading when your total focus is in them, ie sitting on a chair/lying in bed immersed in the story.

It surely depends on how you listen to the audiobook. It’s certainly not the same as reading if you’re attempting to multitask and listen to an audiobook. I think that’s why people consider “reading” to be different.

No… I left. If people want to believe the misinformation now then reality will eventually catch up to them. We should just give it time. Just make sure Bluesky can’t be bought by another billionaire and we’re solid.

“There’s a shortage of doctors, a shortage of funds and their infrastructure is outdated.” So, are you saying that the e government is underfunding it?

It’s not available yet. They’re just about to start human trials. If those are actually accurate, they will then be reviewed and evaluated by others and then they will have to be approved by each country’s agency before being rolled out to the public.

I’ve only recently started using it on my computer (not the app) due to their 50% off Black Friday offer. There is a “Europe Edition” option which covers UK and other EU news which is great for me. But, it doesn’t seem to have changed the way I read the news. It’s a work in progress for me.

Recently deleted those because of their tracking policies. YouTube and WhatsApp from Google and Meta respectively are the only ones I use from time to time because there are no better alternatives for YT and WhatsApp is used by many of my friends. 🙄

Using “personalised” News and liking / disliking certain articles and subjects in my Apple News app, removes a lot of the “upsetting” content, however I also don’t mind them because, IMO, being well informed requires us to take a holistic approach to reading the news. Ground News is a new one I try.

People who only care about their money do not have values so I could see them becoming best friends in the coming months. Although, it would make me happy to see them self-destruct and take their bought 🏷️, lying 🤥 leader down with them.

Oh no! Who would have guessed? 😑 Everyone keep in mind that these things they’re saying are things he’s done in front of them. People should wonder what other things he’s done in private if he’s comfortable acting like a perv in public and in front of colleagues and friends. Do we need to know more?

It’s shocking how they’re not even trying to hide the fact that he’s bought. A billionaire president-elect and a billionaire always seen together is a clear sign that the country is turning into an oligarchy.

Miss, you may think that if it makes you sleep better at night but the reality is that the UK will rejoin the EU sooner rather than go into an accord with the likes of a Trump presidency.

The UK is not and has never been part of the Eurozone. They are also not in the EU since 2020. So no… The Brits have actually made the right decision because it makes more sense to side with their neighbours instead of what appears to be an unstable, divided country.
