"First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they attack you, then you win."
Keep at it. Those who survive will remember your efforts.
Thank you.
Having discussed it with SWMBO it was decided that we would be better able to adapt by not spending the €119 on the exorbitant two day online pass. I will therefore rely upon you and a vicarious attendance.
How they say it and keep a straight face defeats me. ;-(
We are pleased to announce the official publication date of the near-future eco-thriller 'Flood Waters Down' by Sleaford-based journalist Clive A Simpson on 9 April 2026. Pre-orders now being taken at your local bookshop.
'They' have increased our volts. Mine from just under 230 to just under 250 volts. I have seen 252.9 volts.
249 V × 16 A ≈ 3,984 W (3.98 kW) → about 8.3% more power than at 230 V

About 40% of internationally traded oil passes through the Strait of Hormuz.
Oil trade and prices impact everything.
I remember how the 2007-2008 oil price spike increased the price of donkeys in Ethiopia..
It's actually an Israeli action called "Roaring Lion". The USA is supporting them.
My heart goes out to the families of those who gave their lives for this.
You couldn't make it up. Fartrage blaming his parties thrashing in Gorton & Denton on foreigners rather than the wrong policies. I don't care, let him be wrong and stuffed time after time. We don't want dirty little insular England for the rich, we don't fear multicultural opportunity.
So clearly illegal under international law. On Friday Oman's chief negotiation facilitator said it was possible a deal would be reached on Monday (tomorrow). Netanyahu and Trump just couldn't face that prospect. :-(
Did Trump need to get permission from Congress to start his latest new war?

2017 or 2027?
Seems to have had no effect on Iran. Their Supreme Leader is due on TV shortly. I fear all Trump and Netanyahu have done is annoy them.
Oh I would never have guessed, the USA have attacked Iran.
Trump is such a war monger.

Any guesses why the USA Embassy in Israel just gave everyone the option to get themselves and their families out of Israel by the next available flight 'whilst you can'?
Trump is such a war monger.
I feel sure he is on the right side of history in insisting that his product is NOT used against the American people in any way. Trump and his people don't agree to this condition. This is telling everyone, everywhere important things.

Grok's feNk view of Meta and their 'Consent or Pay' for Facebook and Instagram (so far). Text reads: Meta is a surveillance-advertising machine first and foremost. Their entire profit model depends on harvesting your data, building detailed profiles, and shoving targeted ads in your face. The UK "consent or pay" subscription (rolled out late 2025/early 2026) is them finding a regulator-approved way to squeeze extra money out of people who hate that system, while keeping the vast majority as the free data cows they've always been.
The number of UK Meta users zucked in by the "Consent or Pay" model depresses me. These are bad people you are selling your soul to.
As I'd hoped the good people of Gorton & Denton sent a by-election message to Keir Starmer AND to Niggle Flange.
Well done Zack and Hannah, getting so many to lend you their support to send the message is a great triumph.
Don't over interpret the result!

Perhaps @support.bsky.team will see sense.
You are being silenced by the algorithm/mods unfairly imho.
Latest madness as Jersey is about to go back on it's 2030 commitment to ban the import of second hand fossil fuel cars. ;-(

My understanding of Leon's use of the word optimistic is that after careful work to create a projection that predicted a break out to new highs in a only a month that he was surprised by the speed and rate of increase (or it would be in his projection).
Hence my question and reply to you.
My 2 week old extrapolation is already starting to look optimistic..
Note: "Even if there is uncertainty … that is a reason to take it even more seriously,"
"Because if there is uncertainty, we might also be underestimating what's happening."
As I told @nebulousnikki.bsky.social in 2023
1/3
wow
How can the 2026 extrapolation (dashed line) suddenly be so far adrift in such a short period after being such a close fit‽
We will be at all time highs in days rather than the end of next month.
I thought this earth system had enormous inertia taking the edge of rapid changes‽
Careful what you wish for. Bluesky is a for‑profit public benefit corporation primarily owned and controlled by its founder and CEO, Jay Graber, with significant minority stakes held by several venture capital investors.
Mastodon is arguably a better more worthy of trust open and free player. ;-)
