I'm an Octopus customer: @Ofgem, @neso_energy, please save @SavingSessions and keep rewarding customers fairly for helping the energy system! #SaveTheDFS

The UK has done well with driving fossil fuels out of electricity year by year.

But more than 90% of our heating still comes from fossil fuels - mainly fossil gas.

To meet the UK climate goals ambitious policies are needed.

It’s wild that Aaron Swartz was aggressively prosecuted for scraping JSTOR articles.

Meanwhile huge companies routinely scrape the public internet and sell it for $20/month and all is well.

Aaron helped create RSS, Creative Commons, Markdown and a little site called Reddit (which now ironically sells its data to AI companies) - all by the age of 26.

All he wanted was free and open access to information. Really makes you wonder the dent he’d have made on the world if he was still alive today.

10000% this. Aaron was persecuted whilst AI just hoover data and sell it on. Where's the justice?

I love how @TheBoysTV turned @simonpegg into a brain dead Zombie in their universe! Brilliant 🧠

@troyhunt Is there a Pwned Passwords version number we can check to avoid downloading the whole list unnecessarily?

Apple rolled out Private Cloud Compute to the fanfare around Privacy, and now OpenAI has added the former chief of the NSA to its board of directors. Apple can’t continue to roll out Apple Intelligence with its optional link to ChatGPT when the NSA is the opposite of privacy

@unitetheunion @UKLabour @UniteSharon What the world needs is more oil and gas, right? Maybe you should distance yourself from that. Do the right thing.

Very eye-opening to see who's leading the way on clean energy investment – and who's leading on fossil fuels

China: Clean energy investment 3.7x fossil fuels
Europe: 5.5x more in clean energy
N America: Biggest investor in fossil fuels
Middle East: 5.4x more on fossil fuels

@mwt2008 @MarsFlyerPaul Why do you want to ban only large SUVs? What is large? Does it make a difference is the car is 5m or 4m?

[Alan Monie @AlanMonie]

@mwt2008 I've got the same model and I can confirm my next door neighbours condensing boiler is much noisier!

@j_macca7 @Synchronicity34 @electrician_247 Erm... there are loads of chargers all along the NC500... and this is just some of the rapid chargers... Thanks @zap_map

@EcoNorfolk @RippleEnergy People were taken in by the return from the first project at a time of crazy high energy prices. It was obviously never a good investment

[Alan Monie @AlanMonie]

@troyhunt @haveibeenpwned Of course. I misread. Thanks Troy

@StephenJBeynon @g__j They also removed mine for free, but they quoted hundreds initially. I appreciate there is a cost to Octopus, but maybe removal should be centrally funded to encourage moving away from fossil fuels. It’s something that will become a bigger issue as we push more towards renewables

@cybergibbons Yes it is. Has SFP and RJ45 10Gb ports
