Developer of things. I did leave twitter because I am too good for twitter. Probably woke and probably don’t give a toss if that bothers you.

The famous "Wedges" paper was used repeatedly to shut us up when we argued against the continued use of fossil fuels, and, esp, against carbon capture and storage and the mass use of bioenergy. "But these eminent scientists say ..." Now we learn BP co-authored it. www.propublica.org/article/wedg...

How BP Execs Influenced a Climate Study That Shaped a Generation of Global Policy

BP sponsored an elite Princeton research center to address the climate problem without getting off fossil fuels. Its key work, a paper known as “Wedges,” guided climate discourse for a generation.

No, South East Water, the issue is not caused by high demand in hot weather. It’s caused by your inability to treat enough water to meet the needs of customers due to your historical lack of investment in infrastructure. Bonuses and shareholders have been your priority for years.

Image is of the information banner on South East Water’s website that says: We're sorry to customers with water supply issues today. This is caused by high demand for water. Please use water wisely to ensure there is enough water for everyone.

Nigel Farage, "At Michael Barrymore's house they removed all the ashtrays, on the basis that they chuck all the fags in the pool." Can't imagine the outrage if they found a clip of Zack Polanski saying this. Imagine there will be silence because it's Nigel Farage.

People, we deserve better than this shite. Even if you are not supportive of Zack Polanski and his party, this has revealed two things. The poor quality of journalism in this country, that is in urgent need of reform and how the establishment want the status quo to remain unchanged

LinkedIn Is Illegally Searching Your Computer

Microsoft is running one of the largest corporate espionage operations in modern history. Every time any of LinkedIn’s one billion users visits linkedin.com, hidden code searches their computer for installed software, collects the results, and transmits them to LinkedIn’s servers and to third-party companies including an American-Israeli cybersecurity firm. The user is never asked. Never told. LinkedIn’s privacy policy does not mention it. Because LinkedIn knows each user’s real name, employer, and job title, it is not searching anonymous visitors. It is searching identified people at identified companies. Millions of companies. Every day. All over the world.

Donald Trump: “A whole civilisation will die tonight” Nigel Farage: “I’m the only figure from the other side of the Parliament that has consistently stood behind Trump, and stood behind the MAGA movement” Politically, this should be the end of days for them all.
