3,000 jobs at risk unless MoD signs helicopter order, sources say. Skilled workers at Leonardo Helicopters fear it will close Yeovil site if Ministry of Defence delays awarding contract. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Interesting read in yesterday's Sunday Times about the ongoing inertia with the UK's medium-helicopter program. Of course, Leonardo being a sole bidder doesn't help the Government pull their finger out, so there is that. With Alt Text and continued in reply for alt text readers. #aviation

Anyone any experience with an ultrasonic cutter like a Hanboost C1? I'm getting more requests that involve resin printing and I'm wondering if support removal would be easier with a tool like that.

I wouldn't consider this safe to use #Amazon.

The copyright protection that Labour intends to remove from artists is the one that also protects people from having their holiday snaps turned into porn on twitter. If it is fair game for generative AI to slopify books, films and music, then your personal photos will also be fair game.

This does seem just a little bit bad! Idk the sort of thing you’d think politicians might distance themselves from or something!

Dear Marks and Spencer. I have questions about my new jacket.

Who else is miming the flight attendant walking in Velcro shoes? #NewYearsDayConcert #iykyk

This is ridiculous "Officer, if you consult your training document you will see that this is a beaglebone black, which is totally permitted. That? Oh that's a VIA EPIA Mini-ITX board. Also permitted! Yes, I agree it was slightly underpowered for an XBMC frontend in 2006. & this is my cell phone"

This is perfect. The DOJ's embarrassing snafu with disappearing redactions was the fault of Elon Musk. Musk cancelled government subscriptions to Adobe programs that would have made the redactions permanent. What a pack of fools.

When the clock strikes midnight on January 1, creative works from 1930 & sound recordings from 1925 will enter the public domain in the US, like: 💄 Dizzy Dishes, first Betty Boop cartoon 🕵️♀️ First 4 Nancy Drew novels 🚂 The Little Engine That Could 🎩 Morocco 🍑 Georgia on My Mind and many more! 🧵👇

Happy new T-shirt day. Anyone know the artist so I can tag them?

We live in a timeline where we're learning the president of the USA is likely a co-conspirator in a child trafficking ring because DOGE cancelled the DOJ's premium subscription to Adobe:

Watching #TOTP Christmas 1985.

Remember that trend in the #80s of #MovieSoundtrack videos featuring the movie cast with the artist? #Videos at the height of #MTV popularity. #Ghostbusters, Jewel of the Nile, Stand By Me, St Elmo’s Fire. An oddity that I’m not sure continued beyond the 80s. Can anyone think of any other examples?

Who wrote this tosh I said to myself… Well:

We are working through a temporary outage. Sorry for the disruption!

Your annual reminder that if you get this cracker joke and are confused by it, it's apparently because "ffi" is a special character in some fonts and when the typeface is changed to one that doesn't have it, those letters disappear. It's supposed to be "coffin medicine".

They had to release a NEW presidential portrait today...

I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

Because we’re lazy, because we’re unhappy with real life, because we want to create an artificially more ‘impressive’ worldview. It’s a bafflingly perverse way we are destroying reality because we can’t quite face reality.
