@martinlewis.moneysavingexpert.com Martin, perhaps you know but I just accidentally voted twice in your recent poll. Tried again and voted again. Perhaps just a bit of fun but the results are not terribly reliable.

Just majestic. A triple salchow followed by a camel spin then an upright double. That's an easy 9.5 in the singles event and I can't wait to see him compete in the pairs.

So, buying an iPhone in the UK. Is it American (parent company), Chinese (manufacturer) or British (shop owner)? Boycott or not?

I just did the numbers and this assumption looks to be completely right.

I don’t think Trump is coherent enough to have a strategy, but he understands power. Not a bad idea to let Musk attract as much loathing as possible so that, once he’s done all the stuff, Trump can dispose of him in a showy way. Because even those of us who know it’s a bit will enjoy that.
If people hate Elon now what will they do when they find out he made it more likely they’ll die of cancer and never get their social security checks?

Trump may claim immunity thanks to the Supreme Court, but Musk can’t. He may be extremely wealthy, but he’s also extremely exposed. There are good reasons most extremely wealthy people don’t seek such ultra-visible roles as Musk has. I doubt many people know what Charles Koch looks like.

Big Twitter cull today. Went through my follows and have unfollowed anyone is on (and active) on Bsky or Mastodon, refollowing in their new place. Got bored but managed to lose about 1/3rd.
My Twitter experience will diminish until I can shut it down completely.

I don’t blame the individual novelists here - publishers quite often push titles and covers on authors - but there is something unsettling about the fact that, collected together, these covers make Auschwitz sound like a hipster neighbourhood with cool coffee shops and a Waitrose
middling novelists looking to give their books some unearned heft by setting them in Auschwitz need to get a move on, they're running out of job titles

@rega.co.uk Filters on Saturn Mk3: mine has no digital inputs. When I change filter on CD or DAC, nothing changes in the display.
Can I even adjust filters on CD playback?
Do I need something connected to a digital input to change a filter for any of those?

@1goodtern.bsky.social Are you shadowing Twitter over here? I think it is time to drop Twitter and cease any support for its fascist proprietor. Perhaps I could unfollow you on Twitter and follow you here instead.
