I would just like to report that "Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space"-Douglas Adams. 🔭 🧪

Shocked at the news from India of the air crash this morning. My thoughts go out to the families of those who have lost their lives, both from the aircraft and on the ground.

🚨EXCLUSIVE: Sen. Chris Murphy says Trump’s chaos in L.A. is a distraction to hide the fact Trump is stealing from us. “Trump spends all his time at Mar-a-Lago. There are no regular people there…just billionaires…He doesn’t give a shit about the rest of us. He never has.”

ICE, as directed by Trump, is doing exactly these things. I’m worried sick the WAY too many Americans are either not informed about it - or worse, don’t care. Trump’s lifelong dream is to become a ruthless dictator ala Putin/Hitler/KimJongUn. He’s accomplishing Nazi Germany.

Trump deploys the Guard to LA to quell and suppress constitutionally protected dissent. On Jan 6, 2021? He sat in the White House for 187 minutes while the Capitol was literally under siege.

German Chancellor: "May I remind you that we are having June 6 tomorrow. This is the D-Day anniversary." Trump: "Not a pleasant day for you. That was not a great day." German Chancellor: "This was the liberation of my country from Nazi dictatorship."

This exchange is revealing, terrifying, and intellectually bankrupt. No world leader would ever want to enter a room to deal with this guy because he's a crank.

Ukraine did something that the US and Europe failed to do for nearly half a century, it crippled Russia’s ability to launch nuclear weapons and long range strikes. At least one arm of Russia’s nuclear trident was destroyed. Ukraine did that, on its own, successfully. Have you said thank you yet?

British Meat Processors Association: Starmer has “managed to achieve what the previous government promised us originally but didn’t deliver”. ~AA

The U.K. fishing industry - weaponised & then betrayed & then abandoned, by Johnson, Farage & the rest of them - is better off under Starmer’s deal than it was under Johnson’s. That’s not an opinion. It’s counting. Anyone claiming otherwise is a liar.

For all the blanket coverage it's getting today you wouldn't know that fishing contributes a grand total of 0.03% to the UK's economy, or that it is absolutely dwarfed by many other sectors, like the live music industry, which have been badly hit by Brexit but are rarely even mentioned

If you're looking for clarity on what the UK-US trade deal means... this does not provide it.

I've been doing the Brilliant course on Quantum Computing, and it just struck me that you can't back up a quantum computer - at least not in the way that we understand like a point-in-time copy that we can recover to - since the superposition of quantum states will be lost.
