Why did Shokz move away from magnetic charging? I need to replace my OpenRun headphones after five years and USB-C charging along with reduced water resistance make me nervous.

And let's remember you have to be particularly bad to have resigned from Liz Truss' cabinet given her tenure was measured in days.
Lib Dems react:
“Farage has recruited yet another Conservative minister with selective amnesia - one who complains about broken Britain while conveniently forgetting they helped break it.
"Suella Braverman was so bad she was forced to resign from Liz Truss’ cabinet and got sacked by Rishi Sunak.”

In the trail for Question Time Fiona says there is nothing else like it. I guess no one mentioned Radio 4's Any Questions to her.

As we lose the final episodes of Doctors from BBC iPlayer what is really telling is how much drama especially UK originated has been lost from TV especially when you remember we lost Holby City and it's replacement is a few series of Waterloo Road and that last series was burnt across four weeks.
End of an era… today is the final day to watch my final ep of Doctors
leaving @bbciplayer.bsky.social at 2:45pm.
As these final 16 eps play out, please remember the hundreds of people who have struggled to find work since the axe fell… 😢😢🤬

I don't think enough people talk about how great BBC Bitesize is. Secondary school textbooks are now vanishingly rare and Bitesize content is (a) not in a terrible app, (b) engaging and interesting and easy to understand, and importantly (c) FREE. A properly great digital public good.

Catching up on this week's #HIGNFY and delighted that it's @vcorenmitchell.bsky.social hosting and that the amazing Dame Sheila Hancock is a guest. It's going to be a good one.

Today is going to be a scorcher of a #heatwave in parts of the UK
To stay safe remember to:
- Seek shade
- Dress lightly
- Drink plenty of water
- Wear SPF if you go out
To keep your house cool, it may seem counterintuitive but, keep windows, curtains and blinds shut - keep the heat out.

When did the term liquor fall out of use in Britain? Watching a 1983 film from Nationwide and it's used throughout.
