If you are the person who abandoned a tent full of crap at EMF: We are going to find you.

You have enraged a group of people who enjoy puzzles and suddenly have a lot of free time.

Run.

Final leg of this instance of the "Matthew doesn't get arrested entering the UK challenge 2024" let's go

Here's a brilliant article about the opaque and broken world of programmatic advertising.

These platforms truly are a cesspit.

They are causing billions of ad dollars from reputable brands to be pumped into disinformation sites.

Meanwhile, ads are systematically blocked from appearing on reputable news sites that have articles that include words like "Palestine", "black", or "gay".

And the biggest player in this industry? Google!

Just another way Google is enshittifying the internet for profit.

Today the Tories are hating on Low Traffic Neighbourhoods, speed limits, Ultra Low Emissions Zones, proper bike lanes, pedestrianisation.

These are GOOD THINGS on so many counts - and Greens such as myself are all about doing lots more of them. (Just in case you thought otherwise!) https://www.theguardian.com/politics/article/2024/jun/07/tories-pledge-to-reverse-ulez-expansion-and-limit-20mph-roads-in-wales

Even among the massive amount of information here, Cory manages to slip bonus information, possibly without even realizing it, such as that one can use archive.org to look up classic Wired articles!

Such as _this_ classic yet timely article on how the NotPetya worm nearly took out the entire Maersk Line network if it wasn't for one domain controller that was offline due to a power failure.

*How* is Rishi Sunak so bad at this? Is it possible he’s doing it deliberately?

#NASA officials have downplayed 🙊 the severity of the leak 🕳️ risks publicly. However, there appears to be rising concern in the #ISS program at NASA's Johnson Space Center in #Houston. The #Zvezda module was launched in 📆 July 2000. The #cracking issue first appeared in 📆 2019 and has continued to worsen since then. Its cause is unknown. https://arstechnica.com/space/2024/06/on-the-space-station-band-aid-fixes-for-systemic-problems/

The furore about children using snart phones in school is the same as ...

The previous furore about children using calculators in mathematics lessons

And is the same as the furore about children using biros when they should be using pen and ink

Embrace the new, learn how to use it best

My son put this one together. He enjoyed the build except for the extreme amount of stickers. Thought he did a great job on it.

It's a Technic build so does require a bit of thought. Instructions are very descriptive with checkpoints along the way.

Functions are cool and all controlled by gears near a handle like position in the center. The one catch is that it can't land when it has the storage container hooked in.

Mini-fig in the picture for scale. It's definitely an impressive set.
