In an experimental format johnnygf describes a pitch for an exciting new product in an episode of Dragons Den (Shark Tank in the USA) with an unexpected ending! Read "Chicken Water", now! https://t.co/ln9GdsjAx1

@aaron_renn They have Fermilab. Isn't that one of the major 'competitors' of CERN? Gotta be a lot of sharp scientists there for quantum computing breakthroughs.

@dom_lucre @lymanstoneky Looks like a ballet version of Dune

@RDLaverty I was too young for old Who and too old for nu Who. There were glimmers of good writing in nu Who but I could never get into it. McGann is my Who. Shame he never got the chance to have a proper go at it.

@Peter88902568 What happened?

[john f @johnnygf]

@tomhfh In Belfast it's not mindless rage (so far). I'll grant you setting a bendy bus on fire is mindless, but that was an outlier. The strategy is burning out immigrants and intimidation. I agree that it's bad and we shouldn't put up with it, but I think you need to be accurate.

@_adamcherry_ The PLP will get routed. They'll put it off as long as possible.

@AndrewOrlowski @intelfabs Specifically the US Republican/MAGA party seems very friendly to Ellison and family.

One shots are nonsense when the corpus is well documented. Try that again, but you can’t use the word Minecraft. https://t.co/JHbhqKIvvh

Soccer was so named by English public schoolboys to distinguish it from other forms of football. Rugby Football = rugger. Association Football = soccer.

[RedditCFB @RedditCFB]

It is the official position of the Catholic Church that the sport is called Soccer. Total cultural victory achieved. 🇺🇸

The fate of the “assisted dying” bill now falls in the hands of Lauren Edwards MP.

Her local constituency polls strongly against the bill. 📉

Residents of her area gathered outside her office to appeal to her not to resurrect yet another “assisted dying” debate 👇

Genetic data shows something similar. The key point:

"Viking" culture (and religion!) was to a great extent an effectively new thing. Viking culture emerged contemporaneous and in contact with Christianity; it was not some deep ancient pre-Christian primordial thing.

@arstechnica The rear looks very Cayenne. I assume it's sharing the same platform.

[john f @johnnygf]

@alaninbelfast @PCIModerator @pciassembly Totally understand the need for people to get home safely and especially if ministers need to be in their parishes, but I was hoping PCI's response would have been to worship the Lord as normal.
