Here’s the thing: those parents forced that conversation on themselves, by having a different one first that said only β€œboys like girls and girls like boys”.

I get great enjoyment from sitting and watching the washing machine go round. I can't tell anybody this because even I think I sound like a huge sociopath.

this is a long shot - would anyone happen to have a Wireshark packet capture of an Xbox 360 updating via LIVE *before* the Kinect/fall 2010 system update?

reposts for reach appreciated

Dubai influencers share near-identical videos with footage of Dubai crown prince | LBC Videos featuring the caption β€˜I know who protects us’ have been circulating on social media

I had no idea until this all started that the UAE licences and pays many influencers to live there and write positively about the regime.

That puts a whole new spin on things.

Propagandists in pocket of regime.

It's why all the messaging is the same.

I don’t think we disagree either to be clear, my apologies - yes, Sky/NowTV app probably makes more sense :)

Most people see BBC iPlayer or similar and use that over Freeview for convenience (or might not have even plugged in their TV aerial!), I suspect that’s what they’re trying to say. The solution of course is to tell your mates to plug their aerials in and use Freeview again, but that’s not as fun :D

I would imagine they mean they’re using Freeview (DVB-T/DVB-T2) which is near instant versus BBC iPlayer/Freely (β€œFreeview over IP”) which has inherent delays compared to terrestrial broadcast

When someone says β€žScientists do not want you to knowβ€œ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

Such a machine...is not feasible to build any time soon.

So when your CISO or a vendor starts going off about "post-quantum" security, feel free to use this to remind them that we still have SMB1 in some places and Telnet in others. Plenty of work to do around the house.

Researchers praise β€˜stunning’ results of new prostate cancer treatment Early trials of the drug VIR-5500 showed it shrinking tumours in some patients

I have this cancer in remission (nearly 20 years now). I'm convinced the only reason I'm still alive is because I was (for a neuro knock-on catastrophe) treated with immunoglobulin donated by strangers. Their antibodies taught mine, got me out of a wheelchair.
