Looks like a #chinaeastern #boeing #aircraft lost #power mid- #flight and went into a #nosedive https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/chin.. My guess is we'll never learn of an #official #reason - but I wouldn't be #surprised if it's from poor #maintenance and #corruption . As we've seen with #russia 's #military , corruption directly #correlates with lives lost as #critical #equipment #fails .
The #uk 's #houseofcommons #unanimously broke #official #rules to #applaud #ukraine https://youtube.com/watch?v=63n6gRvIJNM So rarely do you see both sides of the house come together like this. I don't think #russia 's #putin knows what he has done.
#china 's #ccp have #expanded their #lockdown where #zero people continue to get #covid and #die from it, according to their #official #statistics https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/ccp-e.. Apparently they are #detecting #covid amongst #winter #olympics #staff - which could mean that it gets called off. Waiting on them to start #blaming #foreign #athletes , despite exceptionally #stringent rules.
Weird, the #uk 's #office for #national #statistics #ons is claiming that the #official #deaths for #covid are 10x the reported valued, from 17k #reported to 140k in reality: https://blog.ons.gov.uk/2022/01/26/to-sa.. I suspect they go too much the other way, you would need to look at #expected death rate vs actual death rate for something more representative...
Wow, an #official #uk #transport #domain for quite a while pointed towards #porn https://thecrow.uk/A-Gov.uk-site-dedicat.. You can see the #nsfw #website #archived here: https://web.archive.org/web/202111251549.. Pretty amazing that this was even possible.
Ouch, #pengshuai is now #missing in #china after #accusing a top #ccp #official of #sexual #misconduct https://www.espn.com/tennis/story/_/id/3.. The #chinese #government are #denying any involvement, but the entire world knows that she got #disappeared ... The #tennis folks have been pretty #brave and #vocal on this issue though, calling out #china for what they've done.
Looks like #pine got #official #arm #systemready #ir #iot #certification #scl https://developer.arm.com/architectures/.. Looks like this is just for the #rockchip RK3399 - but it's a great start! Very cool.
