The Tories are running a fake fact check scam against the BBC debate. See how they've renamed and rebranded their website to make it look like something it's not. Spread the word. Don't let them get away with it. #bbcdebate

This Latvian railway safety ad starring the main characters of a stop-motion cartoon called Avarijas Brigade (Trouble Crew) warns children not to play on railway tracks. It’s… Really something…!

The Windows folks should make it a requirement to package a 1024x1024 BMP company logo with each driver that can then be prominently displayed in place of the ":-(" when that driver causes a BSOD.

This strange tweet got >25k retweets. The author sounds confident, and he uses lots of hex and jargon. There are red flags though... like what's up with the DEI stuff, and who says "stack trace dump"? Let's take a closer look... 🧵1/n

Understandably lots of debate about child poverty this morning – something we as a country should spend much more time focusing on

It's time to take a closer look at CVE-2024-38063 (Windows TCPIP RCE). I usually don't post partial analysis but since most available info is unreliable I'll do my best to try and shed some light. This time I'll focus on my workflow and thought process as we go. 🧵

Musk/X has slapped a spam/dangerous content warning on this NPR link. This shows just how damaging this explosive story is to Trump. Let's get it wide, folks.

I’m enjoying Shona Robison MSP (Dundee City East Constituency)’s clarification that Scotland’s public finances aren’t actually quite as bad as they were following the failure of the Darien Scheme in the late 1690s.
