Semi serious first world question, I see a lot of folks switching to Tidal, is their artist compensation model any better than Spotify (hard not to be) or Apple? Or is it just for the quality?

18 years ago today, 7th Feb 2007, I created an account on a six month old app* called Twitter. It was still very new, hashtags weren't even an informal thing, and strangely engaging. As the platform grew, it was instrumental in developing my skills through access to freely shared knowledge.

Must be a slow news day. The “and finally” on BBC radio news is a piece calling into question the accuracy of Punxsutawney Phil!
According to a new analysis, he comes 17th on a list of 19 meteorological marmots, placing him at the back of the pack … three of which are actually stuffed 😂

If Jafar only turned red when he became a genie but was flesh-colored when he was free, why was the Genie still blue after Aladdin freed him?
