🌳 Did you know that only 25% of 3.2M hectares of woodland in the UK are Native Trees? With other 55% being mostly forestry crop to be cut down + 20% of stumps, windrow and felled?

It is absolutely mental that .@ProtonPrivacy’s Calendar app on iOS does not support neither Search (!!!) nor event duplication.

Never have I felt a stronger “it is a big screen activity” energy for such a basic usecase. Please tell me it’s coming soon?

[Mike Neverov @MNeverOff]

@shadcn Absolutely always. First few times I rolled shadcn I spent a bit of time trying to figure out if I was using it incorrectly due to this.

@theo @theJosephBlaze Hey Theo,

This makes a lot of sense and thanks for elaborating on the unit economy of the service.

If I could offer a small nit - it might be just my tired evening brain, but this UI gave me pause. I expected a loading-bar-style one, which would show 86% full in this case, LTR.

@CalumRaasay @S___Elliott A small, succulent castle?

[Mike Neverov @MNeverOff]

Keep seeing this damned phrase all over the place. Figures.

Hey @raycast, I appreciate the cool future FX prediction feature (year 2040, woah), but I reckon getting current exchange rates would be a touch more helpful? Thanks!

[Mike Neverov @MNeverOff]

@GergelyOrosz I was wondering if you could comment on big trch conpanies with overseas presence? Best I understand i.e. Google Switzerland couldn’t care less and can still hire abroad with ease?
I wonder if this means that smaller US companies are the only ones deprived of cheaper labour?

@theo @uialexk Raycast. Please, ship a good raycast extention for t3 chat.

@on_lothianbuses Yeah that makes total sense, I read up a bit about bus bunching/clumping and the issue where small delays in the earlier bus (more passengers for bus A, longer loading -> less for bus B, quicker) can snowball into what I've seen. Thanks for sharing the remediations you're using!

[Mike Neverov @MNeverOff]

Hey @on_lothianbuses, i was wondering if you could help my bewilderment? I’m trying to go about town and can’t help but notice huge gaps in the schedule, only to then see a couple if same route pull up one after the other? What’s up with that?

[Mike Neverov @MNeverOff]

Hey @VodafoneUK, so is there a chance you'll respect "stop sms" / "stop mms" opt-outs after two dozen of them being sent? Or do I need to write to ICO for you to get your stuff fixed? Apalling experience, given that when I was on lower-cost @lebara it was a non-issue.

[Mike Neverov @MNeverOff]

The full press release states, and i quote:
> can take down a swarm of drones for less than the cost of a pack of mince pies

Clearly the person in charge of the press release had their mind at Christmas Day dinner table

[Ministry of Defence 🇬🇧 @DefenceHQ]

The @BritishArmy has successfully trialed a new radio frequency directed energy weapon (RFDEW) capable of destroying swarms of drones.

RFDEWs can neutralise targets up to 1km away at an estimated cost of 10p per shot.

.@citizenM love your hotels and have always (and still) been my go-to choice for travel, but for the past few weeks the experience booking through your site's been.. well, poor?
The "stay price" doesn't work, "per night" is utterly misleading, things are broken. What happened? :(

[Mike Neverov @MNeverOff]

@ScotRail @travelperk Cheers Paul, Ste, you and the tam are as amazing as ever. Fingers crossed all’s gonna be well without me rebooking the ticket then, ta!

[Mike Neverov @MNeverOff]

.@ScotRail got to do better. First leg of the journey got timetabled away, making me unable to make my connection at EDB to KGX. I was told that I can't board on EDB directly nor was I informed that my 1st leg was cancelled. When you axe a train you have to help to their options.

[Mike Neverov @MNeverOff]

@ScotRail @travelperk It's an Advance and the route is designated "LNER & Connections". It states HYM > KGX so my concern is not being let through the turnstiles at KGX / having issues with LNER staff on the train if I start at EDB.

[Mike Neverov @MNeverOff]

@ScotRail @travelperk Oh bless you, that info is invaluable, I'll just make my way there (EDB) then. It still applies if it's an LNER and not ScotRail service, right? Would be cool to add that to https://t.co/Jp4TvoSdtP (in my case there's no earlier train to catch to make the connection) so it's FAQd

[Mike Neverov @MNeverOff]

@ScotRail That was the first thing I asked @travelperk and thy assured me that there's been no information in their inboxes from yourselves. Have there been notifications sent out to people whose early trains were removed from timetable? And can I start my journey from connection station?

[Mike Neverov @MNeverOff]

@ScotRail It's done via my work's expensing software, TravelPerk. I'd be happy to DM you the details?
