"The concept behind data unions is simple; a group which represents the shared interest of people and their data. I download a plugin or app, and assign control to the group which is bound by rules of association..." - @GilbertHill

An aerial view of the 'Unfinished Obelisk' in the 3500-year-old granite quarry in Aswan, Egypt.

The unfinished obelisk is nearly one-third larger than any ancient Egyptian obelisk ever erected. This obelisk, which is 25m long today, if it had been finished by the ancient Egyptians, would be almost measured around 41.75m (137.0 ft) and would have weighed nearly 1,090 tonnes, a weight equal to about 200 African elephants.

Something beautiful for the weekend!

An extraordinary Acheulean handaxe knapped around a fossil shell circa 500,000-300,000 years ago.

The maker appears to have deliberately flaked around the shell to preserve and place it in a central position. As a result this handaxe has been described as an early example of artistic thought.

From West Tofts, Norfolk.

i'm blown away by how creative websites from the 90s were, despite the constraints.

with slower internet speeds, websites needed to be more efficient, prioritizing function over style. but yet, they still managed to be useful and have flair.
