Dollop: An app that sends some poor soul on a moped to your house with the 1 to 2 tablespoons of crème fraiche your recipe demands. It feels good for the environment and hastens the revolution.

Lost money to a company that went bust. Got a letter today saying NOBODY was getting anything back, cause ALL the money they recovered was spent on figuring out if we should get anything back

Does anyone else feel like ads are really out of touch right now? Here's a man who's tired but satisfied with his job, life, wife & kids. Watch him crash into his evening sunlit sofa and drift into blissful oblivion as he bites into his burger. Doesn't he have a gas bill? Has he read the news?

Think Reform’s net-zero announcements may well be their first big mistake since their rise in the polls. There would definitely be scope to criticise specific climate measures, but trying to actively reverse shift to renewables lands well on wrong side of British public opinion.

No biggie, just an ancient equivalent of a clay photograph that shows a man walking his dog 3,800 years ago in the city of Borsippa 🥹

How did Mr Tumble sneakily recreating the cover to Black Sabbath's debut album escape me for so many years?

An astonishing exchange today between Pete Hegseth and a European reporter who has no time whatsoever for his bullshit. How I wish American media had an ounce of this steel. #hamburger

Almost all the most thoughtful cell ephys papers predate the formation of the Spice Girls. Coincidence?

Oy, @royalsociety.org , what's the excuse? Why are you waiting? Richard Boyle wasn't pretty, but you've recovered from that, right? You're ok now, right? You can now stand up to fascism when you see it?

Thinking about digital twins today and, for the first time, made it specifically about _my_ digital twin (Donal). Instantly breaks down. I want him to be healthier than me. And make his own decisions. Do things I did not or couldn't. Explore things I left unexplored.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

When I saw the name storm Éowyn I thought it was just another Eoin / Ioan / Euan etc, but apparently it's a Tolkien creation and he was a professor in this stuff so I assume I'm wrong. Is there anyone on here who can explain why it's not a John but an original creation?

Microsoft is going to price gouge you by adding their genAI to your subscription without your consent, and they are not transparent about how to avoid this bullshit. Here's how to change your subscription back to "Classic" for a lower charge without Copilot: answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffi...

Chances are you have heard on productivity and finance bro podcasts that UK millionaires are leaving the country. But 10,000 millionaires is just 0.5 per cent of the total number and even that number is apparently based on a survey. bylinetimes.com/2025/01/24/n...
