  • It’s not at all weird and very easy to explain. The BBC positions itself as an impartial reporter. Anything that appears to be a judgement call by someone else is (quite rightly) put into quotes.

    In this case, I would have simply left out the words “innocent victim “ myself, as it’s a bit odd - but that is the rationale.

  • Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is reportedly worried about an OpenAI deal with Apple

    Jump

  • If your organisation is big enough to have a press office of more than 4 or 5 people, you will usually have an on-call rota.

  • Trump guilty on all 34 counts in hush money trial, in historic first for a former U.S. president

    Jump

  • Sentencing July 11 - delayed because the original date would clash with a court appearance in Florida

    Orcas are still smashing up boats – and we've finally worked out why

  • Let’s go clubbing

  • Rapid rollout of clean technologies makes energy cheaper, not more costly

    Jump

  • Certainly, if you on an ‘agile’ tariff in the UK it can be a lot cheaper. There were times a few month ago when it was particularly windy - they were paying me to use electricity/charge my solar batteries from the grid.

  • Kent hosts hundreds of wild beavers, survey finds

  • German carmaker Volkswagen says forced labour in one of its sub-supplier's plants in China was not identified as 'no full supply chain transparency exists'

  • [Kind of weekly thread] Men over 30, how is your week going?

    Jump

  • Not bad. Did the Ride London 60 on Sunday, pondering whether I should try the 100 next year. It went ok

  • The level of engagement on Reddit these days

    Jump

  • However, the upside is that there are no bots, dark patterns, or manipulated feeds.

    There’s a huge amount of incoming spam, much of it, I suspect posted by bots. I’ve also seen account posting ‘news’ from sites that are clearly AI generated

  • The level of engagement on Reddit these days

    Jump

  • To be honest, it feels much more likely to see posts on the Fediverse with many upvotes, few or no comments

  • Virginia went all in on solar. Then its powerful utility changed the rules. After Dominion Energy required expensive upgrades, many solar projects were put on hold.

    Jump

  • It can work where there is real competition. For natural monopolies, not so much.

    Usually it happens because the state wants to sell off family silver to make some short term cash :(

  • Conservatives plan to bring back mandatory National Service

    Jump

  • So, if I gave you some volunteering contacts as links, would you commit to starting next month for me? Or would it take a threat of fines/court action?

  • Conservatives plan to bring back mandatory National Service

    Jump

  • Would you be up for being compelled to give up a day a month to do good works? Not volunteering, mind, compelled.

  • Drinkers lose up to £114 a year over beer and wine short measures, study reveals

    Jump

  • “It’s a bit lively tonight “

  • £115? That’s nearly 3 pints of bitter

  • Conservatives plan to bring back mandatory National Service

    Jump

  • I contribute plenty. I volunteer for several charities including AgeUK and a local food bank and I give blood.

    Want to make it mandatory? piss off.

    Germany has too many solar panels, and it's pushed energy prices into negative territory

    Jump

  • You need a certain kind of landscape for that. I think the UK only has a couple of pumped storage power stations due to lack of suitable sites
