@Itsfoss @LibreOffice obviously the number one choice 😁

[The Bottom Line IBD @bottomlineibd]

#IBD patients in stable remission who switch from IV to sub-cut infliximab do not need to continue thiopurines to avoid anti‑drug antibodies, says the new MINIMISE study. So when is combination therapy truly necessary, and when can we safely step down? ⤵️

[The Bottom Line IBD @bottomlineibd]

“People’s symptoms are real - they’re not imagined, they’re not invented. Just because we don’t find abnormalities on tests, it doesn’t mean there’s nothing wrong.”

#ThrowbackThursday: Scalextric police patrol 🚨

From the Rover 3500 and Ford Sierra Cosworth to the Subaru Impreza, Vectra, BMW and Ford Focus, police cars have been a regular sight in the Scalextric range over the years.

Do you have any Scalextric police cars in your collection? 🤔

[Alan @alanswatch]

@Scalextric Almost worth having a life of crime getting to travel in the back 😂😂😂

@ramonagusta Why don't all these people jump on an airplane ✈️ 🛫 fly off and help them if they believe in the cause so strongly. Although that would do away with home comforts

[Alan @alanswatch]

@Councillorsuzie Give you full credit along with other people regardless of Party who leave them on. Very sad that a few comments are so ridiculous and rude I honestly think I would be tempted to turn off. Full respect, I will never understand why people can't just disagree because of A or B

[Crohn's & Colitis Research @CrohnsColitisR]

Researchers at Bangor University and the International Federation of Crohn's and Ulcerative Colitis Associations would like to invite adults living with Crohn's disease in the UK to take part in a survey, part of the GENEGUT project.

Good solid tip I have 2, use every time I pick up a servo to test before use

[Kevin McAleer 🤖 Robot Maker @kevsmac]

Control multiple servos with this simple tester! No microcontroller needed. Features modes for centering and sweeping servos left and right. #Electronics #DIY #Robotics

[Alan @alanswatch]

An interesting 🤔 project

[Kevin McAleer 🤖 Robot Maker @kevsmac]

Imagine a steampunk robot owl that can track people with its gaze! Using a Raspberry Pi 5, this companion could stare, avoid eye contact, or even rotate its head to follow you. So many clever possibilities! #RobotOwl #Steampunk #Tech

[Alan @alanswatch]

@kevsmac Definitely been watching too many horror movies 😂😂😂 Sounds like great project 👍👍

[Alan @alanswatch]

@bottomlineibd Will do, take care of yourself all the best 🥂

[Alan @alanswatch]

@bottomlineibd Always made me laugh with leaving Kentish town at the age of 17 joining the Army, spent 9 years mostly in Germany. In next month with my gang with iron low blood count and prediabetes hopefully not liver playing games again

[Alan @alanswatch]

@bottomlineibd I was a truck driver at the time I got a lot of London jobs, logic from the boss At the time you must know your way around with being born there 😂

[Alan @alanswatch]

@Blake_MidBeds @A_J_Snowden Certainly not a crap speech 😂😂😂 that's my daft sense of humour 😂 I agree with everything said fantastic cheers to all concerned.
