Speak about some #quick #gains - this #compiler switch for some #pinephone #library sees 5 times #speedup ! https://pineguild.com/maui-applications-.. Got to love them quick wins!
#season 1 of #clarksonsfarm was legitimately good. I didn't want to really like it so much, I wanted #jeremyclarkson to remain a #car person indefinitely - but I *really* #enjoyed seeing him as a #farmer and understanding the #struggle they went through. My #respect for #farming has increased exceptionally. I hope there is another season!
As expected, #china 's #ccp have #paid the #interest for #evergrande to avoid a #default for now: https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/chinas.. It really looks like it is now a #race to see who suffers #economic #collapse first, the #us or #china - whoever goes last gets to blame the first.

Well worth the #listen ! This essentially boils down exactly the #complaints people have had for years about the perceived #bbc #bias ...Plan to #listen to this #tonight - a #documentary checking out the use of #stonewall for #policy #decisions at the #bbc https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p09yjp.. This was #hinted at being quite interesting by a #clip from the #podcast of the #lotuseaters on #youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jL4_MlCq.. Very interested to hear #stonewall #defend themselves...
I suspect this #documentary on the #capitol " #insurrection " in the #us on January 6th is a little #biased https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15520020/ The #cast consists of a bunch of people playing themselves, including #nickalvear an #activist #filmmaker , #igorbobic a #huffpost #reporter and a series of #leftwing #politicians ... I'm sure this will be a fair and #unbiased #review of #events that day... The #reviews are not #polarised at all! https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15520020/re..
#biden #administration just outright #lying now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXEcf4xc.. #wages are *not* up, more people are *not* #working - these are simply #lies .
Cool #electric #gokart #conversion #project https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Cq4mGpZ..
Ouch, apparently 78% of the #internet runs #php - most of which run an old #version https://haydenjames.io/78-of-the-web-pow.. Doesn't bode well.
Apparently #cannabis #consumption #decreases #sperm counts and #male #fertility https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30916627..
Interesting, #apple have #abused the #dmca #takedown #notice to #block the sharing of a #ip v4 #address that #leaks #internal #documents - despite the fact the #security #researchers were trying to #warn them of the #leak ! https://twitter.com/RayRedacted/status/1.. And this is why we can't have nice things.
Interesting, #trump is #launching a new #socialmedia #platform https://www.lotuseaters.com/trump-to-lau..
Haha #text on a #jumper caused a person get a #fine in the #uk for apparently #driving in a #buslane ! https://hackaday.com/2021/10/21/british-..
A #journal #paper I had been working on for a while did reasonably well in the #review process, so now to make the changes and #submit a final version for my #phd . This is actually really quite nice to finally be making some #progress after quite some time.
An #article on #announcing being #transgender - by a person who used to be a #man , became a #woman , then changed their name from #christine to #xe https://christine.website/blog/change-20.. I'm *really* #sorry , but this #change you have done will *never* complete you. Your #depression was *never* a problem of #acceptance - until you realize this you are doomed to keep needing to "change" yourself to #maintain the high from the #lgbt #community ... Good luck with this.
So #arxiv are having their #diversity bollocks: https://blog.arxiv.org/2021/10/20/save-t.. Apparently #africa needs its *own* #academic #research - despite it being in #english and apparently being as #valuable as any other #research https://info.africarxiv.org/ It's just ultra weird.
Not sure why it took so long, but the #uk and #nz have now #agreed a #freetrade #agreement as a result of #brexit https://www.gov.uk/government/news/uk-ag.. This is legitimately great for both #countries - for #nz it means they are not #reliant on #australasian #trade #support and for the #uk it gives access to a #market with tonnes of #valuable #resources (such as #agriculture ).
