Our @defcon "Inside the Fake Science Factory" talk is now on YouTube. We delved in to the weird world of fraudulent pseudo-academic conferences. A massive thanks @Niki7a and @thedarktangent for taking a chance on this submission. https://t.co/FIQkXZEcXf

@LokeshPande93 @HantsPolice I imagine the Police will do nothing due to lack of resourcing. Scandalous really.

@LokeshPande93 @HantsPolice Just reported (online form) two wannabe Fast and Furious cars speeding into Chineham Shopping Center (20:10hrs, Sat 5th July). One car took a racing line, the wrong way around the first shopping center roundabout (narrowly avoided me). A 2nd car was intent on burning rubber

@kelvmackenzie But it's ok for politicians (and others) to have multiple jobs? 🤔

@TheVCCC @MrSamClifton @ChrisTottman1 @jmrbnsn Hmm sm

@njsmithPro Hey Nick, just looking to return some Rippl shorts. They've not arrived yet but I'm not getting a response from support or [email protected] to cancel the order. Looking forward to your help with this one. Cheers

@RichAH67 @zsk I vaguely recall reading that empathy has been in decline for a while. Anecdotally, people seem oblivious to others. I'm frequently amazed when people cross the road directly into my path when I'm out running. Skiing is another disaster zone these days. And yeah, phones

@UK_Daniel_Card Good to finally meet you. Apologies, I mucked up the LinkedIn invite trying to add a note 🙄. Basingstoke... You can't escape it forever. Have fun at BSides

I know nothing about creating Minecraft Education maps - & need to build some for a kids party. I tried python which works ok - but can’t be saved in the map so I’d have to manually run it. mcedit doesn’t work on macOS anymore & amulet runs but shows no maps. Anyone with exp?

[Suggy @5uggy]

@garyseconomics really enjoyed your book. I think it's the first book I've finished in years. Great read. I'm catching up on your videos now too.

[Suggy @5uggy]

Apparently we're old 😬. Awesome to bump into @DEClme & @jaysonstreet at @defcon

Nearly six decades of combined DEF CON right here with @5uggy & @jaysonstreet

@steven_gill These Garmins are great though. In my advanced years, I need all the 'training smarter' help I can get 🤣

[Suggy @5uggy]

Question for the runners out there... What benefit would a Strava sub give me over the free version and the stats on my Garmin Forerunner 255? The Forerunner has been a superb purchase in focusing my runs. Am I missing a trick without the Strava sub? #ukrunchat @UKRunChat

[Suggy @5uggy]

@steven_gill Mr. Gill, it's been a while and I hope you're well. Yeah, I can see how that could be interesting/useful, but I'm not sure it'd be worth it for me. Maybe if I joined a club where a coach looked at HR and that.

[Suggy @5uggy]

@Welsh_ish_Will @UKRunChat Thanks Ian. Yeah, I'm amazed by Garmin Connect after my old GPS watch and a year or two with a basic FitBit. The Garmin is so much better for running IMO. Hope you're doing well dude!

[Suggy @5uggy]

@leaheodonovan @UKRunChat @fetcheveryone Thanks for that. I'll check out @fetcheveryone a little later. Super happy with the Garmin stats so I was curious if I was missing anything big in Strava. Thanks again

[Suggy @5uggy]

@mileswithshell @UKRunChat Appreciate that. I've been amazed at how useful the Garmin has been. Prior to that I was happy with a more basic gps watch. I'll give Fetcheveryone a look as it sounds great.

[Suggy @5uggy]

@RobBatters @UKRunChat Thank you. I'm looking to not spend money, but if it had the same positive impact as the Garmin, I'd seriously consider it. I'll certainly checkout smashrun though - nice tip

@RussellEngland @RichardBentall @peterjukes ...fwiw, all our data and R scripts are available via OSF here - https://t.co/GX29qhr3EK

@RussellEngland @RichardBentall @peterjukes The paper discusses some thoughts on this. It also points to work by LeDuc (e.g.,Politics of Direct Democracy Pb: Referendums in Global Perspective). We also looked at the impact of ads (and media coverage) in a follow up study summarized here - https://t.co/I7z38yhLzC
