@_ROTE_ @vmmaloney That's clearly a road bike, not a track bike. It's built for roads, not the velodrome.

I translate stakeholder requirements in to actionable development work and steward deliverables to production on time and in scope

There are people behind their screens who see these rescue workers tending to a girl and her father, and they press a button and end their lives, then go get lunch as if they are not monsters who should be in prison for life

For almost twelve years, we have had the joy and honor to explore the Destiny universe with you all. Through all the ups and downs, surprises and triumphs, building Destiny alongside our players has been a monumental privilege. While our love for Destiny 2 has not changed, it has become clear that after The Final Shape, we have reached the time for our shared worlds, and Destiny, to live beyond Destiny 2.

As our focus turns towards a new beginning for Bungie, we will begin work incubating our next games. To that end, on June 9, 2026, we will release the final live-service content update for Destiny 2 to begin that new journey as a studio.

Though active development may be concluding, we will ensure that Destiny 2 remains playable, just as the original Destiny is today. Many changes in this final update will aim to ensure that Destiny 2 is a welcoming place for players to return to.

We’re proud of Destiny 2, the places it took us, and the legacy it has created. Because of you all, our universe is vast, built on years of shared stories, adventures, and victories. From the Cosmodrome to the Pale Heart to the Lawless Frontier, we have forged life-long memories and friendships with you all.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who made that journey with us.

From the deepest part of our hearts, thank you, and we'll see you in the stars.

I think we should let this man cook.

best thing about tnt's quest to end free to air sport in the uk is they don't even bother to give their product the sky sports razzmatazz. try to watch their road cycling coverage and it feels like it's run by one guy who's fallen asleep and banged his head on the broadcast desk

Someone lock away this sinister little careerist goblin.

For decades, Westminster has overseen the managed decline of towns like mine. We have talked big, then acted small, stuck in a politics of incrementalism that cannot meet the moment. We have lost the trust of those our party was built to serve.

It is my unwavering belief that nothing short of urgent, radical, courageous reform will make a difference. That must start with a change in leadership.

Today, I am putting the people I represent and the country I love first and will be resigning as MP for Makerfield. I am standing aside so that Andy Burnham can return to his home, fight to re-enter Parliament, and if elected, drive the change our country is crying out for.

This has not been an easy decision. This is my family’s home, where only a few weeks ago, doctors and nurses at Wigan Infirmary saved our newborn son’s life.

But we all must make choices and in recent days I found myself with a difficult one: defend the status quo or step forward and act. I have made my choice.

I am in politics because politics is how you change lives for the better. My party has one last chance to do that: deliver for the people and places I represent, drive economic growth, secure our borders, reform our state and politics, and change a status quo that is not working.

That is the fight. I believe Andy is the one to lead it.

On behalf of their client, Zara Sultana, Bindmans Media and Information Law Practise Group requires that I publish the following statement on X, and that such statement must be clearly visible and pinned to my
profile for a continuous period of no less than 24 hours:

“On 30 March 2026, I published a post on my X account addressed to Zarah Sultana in which I stated that she encourages and incites violence and is friends with terrorists.

Those statements are false. I was wrong and offer my sincere apologies to Ms Sultana for the harm and distress caused to her.”

It is my very great pleasure to do this, and I reiterate my sincere and repeated offer to meet with Miss Zara Sultana in person to resolve our differences.

BREAKING: A court will seek to sentence four Palestine Action activists found guilty of criminal damage as terrorists even though they were not convicted of terror charges, in a move kept secret from the jury.

@dominicboyle @Curious_Chak @lewis_goodall the Labour Party under Starmer will abandon its core idealism & principles and it won't even gain tactical advantage. It will be a party which gives no one a reason to vote for it, and no one will, in fact, vote for it.

Meta illegaly downloaded 80+ terabytes of books from LibGen, Anna's Archive, and Z-library to train their AI models.

Aaron Swartz downloaded 70 GBs of articles from JSTOR (0.0875% of Meta) in 2010. Faced $1 million in fine and 35 years in jail. Took his own life in 2013.

Using the word physiognomy as a shibboleth to signal yourself as the kind of person to use the word physiognomy is more important than knowing how to correctly use the word physiognomy. Dipshit.

[Michael Orthodox ☦ @Michaeldudufudu]

What exactly is this physiognomy called? I feel like it didnt exist in our parents generation

I fucking hate Alex Karp man. If there's gonna be a shadowy military surveillance company can they at least do it directly and with professionalism. Stop bringing out this insufferable Taika Waititi character to talk about jiu jitsu and how it's woke elitism to oppose AI drones.

Time to play this game. I don’t think I ever played the final shipping version. Thank you @dinga for the keys

Premium Newsletter: OpenAI needs to raise or make $852 billion through 2030 to pay for its compute costs, and must pay $75bn a year for Oracle's 7.1GW of Stargate data centers, or Oracle will collapse, destroying its share price and Ellison's empire.
