    Ofc the synthetic wombs must use blockchain technology to bake in trustless paternity for each sperm-based transaction (deposit) into a viable egg wallet. Only crypto can deliver an ever-growing cockchain of immutable conceptions

    Several young tech guys just solved pregnancy. You're welcome, women.

    12/ of the videos and tweets of this new chapter in the disinfo. See below for example. It's not clear why such tweets aren't deleted, when the Russian Embassy in the UK had a tweet removed for something similar.

    It is not success to undermine people's health, dignity, wages, educations & safety. It is not excellence to fund violence, oppression & climate destruction. It is not pro-country to use jingoism to destroy the nation. And it's a lie to frame things in denial of these facts.

    Everything on the Internet would be paid for hundredfold if we just taxed the usage of the term "community".

    Sunak interview on R4 barely a minute in and he's already in serious trouble: useless, tetchy, evasive, with nothing to offer.

    Every startup needs to be actively working to avoid climate catastrophe. If your product isn't a net positive for the environment, hit pause, help fix the problem and then we can go back to other things.

    Today’s utter hypocrite of the day: Rishi Sunak He called on business leaders to “think very carefully” about investments that “aid the Putin regime” But that doesn’t apply to his own wife… Who owns a £500m stake in her dad’s firm that continues to operate out of Moscow

    IT company Infosys “does not see any impact on delivery or services” from its Moscow operations as a result of UK sanctions - which is good news for its £500m-investor, chancellor Rishi Sunak’s wife! Full story in the new Private Eye, on sale now.

    Randomly find myself on an EU privacy settings page tonight. There is no planet where Axciom (a data broker) should be able to claim a legal basis of “Legitimate Interest” for all of these purposes. It’s absolutely nuts 4 years into GDPR this is still happening.

    As ever, Ministers sell a fuel duty cut as helping the poor but the rich take most of the benefit. Over 40% of the poorest households don't have a car.

    *Eternal scream*

    Even if they go with something like Tezos, which is computationally (& so energetically) less wasteful, the GBR cannot be owned. It belongs (as property) to no-one. Further, it's considered Earth's largest single organism; symbolically selling off its body parts is just grotesque

    "Not to state the fist-gnawingly obvious here, but isn’t the whole point about liberating someone from the clutches of some backward theocracy that you don’t immediately then go and tell her to know her place?" 10/10

    My bit on the Nazanin haters. I see a woman who hasn’t said a word in six years is talking too much…

    Having as a political leader at a time of war and pandemic is like inviting a clown to a funeral.

    Incredibly angry response from former Ukraine president Petro Poroshenko to Boris Johnson's much criticised comparison of Brexit with the war in Ukraine. "How many people died because of Brexit? None."

    9 years. Well, as the characters of my favorite TV series “The Wire” used to say: “You only do two days. That's the day you go in and the day you come out" I even had a T-shirt with this slogan, but the prison authorities confiscated it, considering the print extremist.
