Sony has a smartphone business in Europe?

Yeah in martial arts there is a concept of ‘minimum effective effort’ by various names. Essentially you do the minimum possible to be be effective in your defence/offence but withhold as much energy as possible for the next threat- that’s what this is, the minimum required effort to put out regular content to rile up the hogs. If the hogs are riled, that’s great, you’re done. Only work harder if the hogs start to question the slop.

Why is grok writing in such an annoying “hello fellow kids” voice?

Agreed, F1 and Golf are 100% sports

Define:

  1. An activity involving physical exertion and skill that is governed by a set of rules or customs and often undertaken competitively.

  2. A usually challenging activity undertaken for amusement.

No way f1 and golf don’t fall into those definitions.

Hmm, not sure about bikes. Sure as a mode of cheap transport they’re very proletarian, but as a sport - it’s a rich man’s game - competitive road bikes cost (tens of) thousands.

Polo is the most reactionary (in Europe at least) with other equestrian events closely behind.

I’d say football (soccer for seppos) is the least reactionary, all it takes is:

  • almost any space (a field ideally, but an road or alley or a yard etc is fine),
  • a ball, (including a makeshift one made from plastic bags and twine),
  • some goal makers (a T-shirt, rock, tree, painted bit of wall etc)
  • and a mate

and you’re playing.

Weird wording, couldn’t you just say they’re producing as much in a month as nato in a year, or 12x nato. 3 times in 3 months is a weird way of expressing it. Why not 100x in 100 months!

I can think of some other cuts around the royal family that would save money…

Very cool footage of a Short Eared Owl’s nest on BBC springwatch this year. Short Eared Owl chick are ridiculous things!

 

It’s almost like traditional Labour voters: workers, the youth, the poor, the elderly aren’t exactly impressed with labours drive to make life in the uk worse for all the above sectors of society and see his spineless grovelling to Reform voters and transphobes for exactly what it is.

 

So this seems good…

PFAS are linked with cancer, fertility issues, and developmental delays in children — yet the E.P.A. has moved to weaken regulations designed to protect Americans

 

Brittish royals really can’t help themselves can they?

Today Drop Site News is publishing a landmark investigation about the BBC’s coverage of Israel’s unrelenting assault on Gaza by British journalist Owen Jones. His report is based on interviews with 13 journalists and other BBC staffers who offer remarkable insights into how senior figures within the BBC’s news operation skewed stories in favor of Israel’s narratives and repeatedly dismissed objections registered by scores of staffers who, throughout the past 14 months, demanded that the network uphold its commitment to impartiality and fairness. Jones’s investigation of the BBC has three main components: a deeply reported look into the internal complaints from BBC journalists, a quantitative assessment of how the BBC characterizes the year-long siege on Gaza, and a review of the histories of the people behind the coverage—and, in particular, one editor, Raffi Berg.
