Surprise surprise. The Social Media (apart from X) are a deeply harmful ultra-communist attack on Western Democracy. Fuck them all.

It's true, social media moderators do go after conservatives

Re: European Colonization
It is very telling of the communist ideology of woke and feminism that deeply envy the extraordinary gains for the entire Human race of said "men of white European descent". Show me what the Islamic Caliphate/Palestinian terrorists/Failed African states ..., etc, etc. have provided to Humanity?
In reality (and I admit I am Irish) this is a case of the politics of envy. The EU are hard-left socialists who hate anyone who engages - in the actual words of the Soviet queen, Margrethe Vestager, in - "all forms of tax avoidance and competitive advantages for tech giants and large corporations within the European Union". Hate crime anyone?
NASA pushes decision on bringing crew back in Starliner to the end of August
Standards are NASA responsibility
Frankly, suit design is not the issue. Suit connectors to life support systems are. A fair metaphor - Boeing uses "USB" and SpaceX uses "Firewire". This is completely 100% valid and acceptable as they are competitors. If NASA wants standard spacesuit connectivity it is *NASA's* job to specify that, not the contractor!

Unfortunately Ireland has gone in the wrong direction - backwards
Ah pity poor Ireland. Land of 'saints n' skolars'. The Irish tax-funded broadcaster, RTE ('Radio and Television Eireann, be-god!') cancelled DAB here when they were found out for gross corruption, fraud and epic stupidity. Yes. here in Holy Oireland, we have cancelled DAB in favour of 'the olden ways, ooh arrgh!'.

Joint European Torus experiments end on a 69 megajoules high
What I find sad about European Science and Engineering is - lack of project management. Why shut down a massively successful program BEFORE the next stage is up and running? What happens if ITER is not ready in 2025? It parallels Ariane's dumb, dumb decision to stop Ariane 5 BEFORE Ariane 6 was remotely ready to fly - I actually was in Florida to see the ESA EUCLID launce using SpaceX coz of this dumb management. The US guy giving us the spiel could hardly stop laughing at the idiocy of the Europeans. I shit you not! Lions led by donkeys indeed!

CERN seeks €20B to build a bigger, faster, particle accelerator
Cheaper than HS2 and worth much more
This is the boundary of real Science (i.e. discoveries that will mean something 1000 years from now and maybe get us to the starts). Not 'science' as unfortunately dumbed down by the once-great BBC to cater for the low-IQ woke generation. AND it is much cheaper than the low-IQ HS2 debacle so it is actually amazingly cheap when you think about it.
Boeing goes boing: 757 loses a wheel while taxiing down the runway
United Airlines’ patience with Boeing is maxed out after repeated safety issues
Sad for a great company like Boeing, they have unfortunately hired absolute idiotic morons to their "leadership team". Same applies to Google. We are living in a time where the good and great people in world-facing companies are being failed by moronic idiots that are in their positions as a result of "diversity". Idiocracy right there.
