@think_or_swim @lstwrd @cooper_m Please plug Artificial Light at Night Conference in Westport at end of October: https://t.co/fyIqdNZCWx

@think_or_swim @lstwrd @cooper_m Light pollution is more important than the time you've given. It's also linked to our timekeeping system. In 2035 Leap Seconds will no longer be added to UTC to keep us in line with the solar year: a highly symbolic moment marking our divorce from astronomical cycles.

@FirefoxSupport At least for the latest version I get 110.1.0

[D Black @daithib8]

@FirefoxSupport Thanks but that page only shows the desktop changelog; when I link to the Android one I can only see the most recent, usually point, release. However by modifying the URL directly it is possible to choose a major version.

@whittledaway @HannahEDaly The travel planners have come a long way. Deutsche Bahn is a lifesaver. Works much the same as the Irish analogue but way more slick; also transnational.

[D Black @daithib8]

@HannahEDaly @whittledaway Deutsche Bahn and Rome2Rio (a private operation) are both excellent and transnational.

@nyohozen Hello! Read your blog post about honorifics. How should I salute a letter to a western priest/kyoshi: -sama; -sensei; Mx.?

@Interrail @andnewfurniture @EdnanMirou Only Algeria is in CET right now—surely you mean 11am CEST?

@parcelforce @parcelforce I wonder can you tell me how soon I can know that an international parcel won't be returned to sender?

[D Black @daithib8]

@parcelforce if I get a quote from your site for 2 parcels to Ireland it says £170; 1 parcel, same dimensions, £30

[D Black @daithib8]

@parcelforce Same delivery address as well

[D Black @daithib8]

@parcelforce they wouldn't be identical in reality. I'm just saying the quote the website was giving me for a box of a certain size and weight.

[D Black @daithib8]

@parcelforce Do I need to find a tariff code for each individual item?

[D Black @daithib8]

@parcelforce I am transferring my residence to Ireland. I have many objects of diverse nature. I have obtained a docket from the Irish state to waive duties. Do I need to list all objects?

I'd be surprised if humans always relied on consuming animal products to avoid deficiency.

@ZeroWasteScot @mcsuk @KSBScotland A proper FFP2 mask offers better protection and remains effective for 40 hours. Good idea to clean the hands before donning and doffing lest it become grubby.

@Orla_Hegarty There are also unintended consequences to drinking sanitised water. I couldn't give you a great example but Vitamin B12 might be one. We exist in a web with microbes. If we try to eliminate them we will have to compensate somewhere.
