Back at @ThematicIntelGD in London from excellent few days at #MWC26 in Barcelona. Major thanks to Victor from the left luggage team at MWC yesterday for enabling me to access my baggage quickly and help me make my flight to London. Great job! 🙏

Regulators should be targeting the rampant use of #water by tech cos for data centres, not targeting consumers for water meters. As if sky-high household water bills to support the inept companies wasn’t bad enough. Pull your finger out ⁦@Ofwat⁩ https://t.co/m7rZ4L8Dlf

7.40 in the morning. Patronised again @GWRHelp

[davidbicknelltech @bicknelltech]

But the driver did a great job of getting us underway almost straightaway! We appreciate your staff. We don’t need the patronising announcement @GWRHelp . You could do a better job of treating your passengers, customers even, ‘with respect.’

Thanks a bunch @GWRHelp 45 minutes delay at Paddington for a West Drayton trespasser, followed almost immediately by your usual patronising ‘CCTV and body-worn cameras’ monologue from the voiceover artist from Hell. And now we get him on every single damned journey. Great! 😱

Need to get from A to B of any reasonable distance and take someone, or carry something bulky? Just try doing without it.

If cars are so bad for our health, our cities and the planet, why can’t we quit them? Three new books argue it’s time to really try. https://t.co/S0sB2SI0oV

On this day in 1880, Cologne Cathedral was finally completed — 632 years after work began.

But do you ever wonder why it was built?

Well, an extremely curious treasure is kept inside... (thread) 🧵

Do explore Pieter Brueghel the Elder. One of the greats.

[Ali Minai @barbarikon]

@Culture_Crit The Brueghel and Bosch paintings don’t belong in this thread because: ) They are not about a specific catastrophic event, and b) They are true works of genius whereas the others are conventional works.
