Sorry, I had not seen that particular accusation from “Alice”, but the story is evolving and there are many people coming forward with different allegations.

I prefer Walt. Or Whalteeeeer.
I fully support them being illegal, why would you think that would be bizarre to me?
I merely pointed out, in the case of the 16 year old schoolgirl, she was not legally underage, no matter how shocking and disturbing we may find Brand’s behaviour, which I do. I don’t think she has made any claims of rape or assault against Brand, but others have. I don’t know what laws, if any, apply to his treatment of her, but I don’t think underage sex is one of them.
If we think something is already illegal when it isn’t, then it reduces the incentive to change the law - why make something illegal when you already think it is? Possibly the UK needs new legislation to vary the age of consent depending on the participants, as in other states.
16 is not underage in the UK, where this is alleged to have happened.
I am not sure. This was mostly a case of human error in not properly securing urls/storage accounts. The lack of centralised control of SAS tokens that the article highlights was a contributing factor, but not the root cause, which was human error.
If I leave my front door unlocked and someone walks in and robs my house, who is to blame? Me, for not locking the door? Or the house builder, for not providing a sensor so I can remotely check whether the door is locked?
OK, you are the new mod.
Because they were too basic? E.g. out of range of the Chinese controllers.
They cause a lot of light pollution of the night sky, and when they burn up they pollute the atmosphere.
It is a surprise and concerning to me. It is so wasteful and polluting. I can’t be the only one who feels like this?
So much time and money being wasted on pseudoscientific bunkum.
Who is he criticising? It better not be Putin - look what happened to Prigozhin.
I also loved this book when I first read it as a teenager many years ago, along with the Foundation series: another great Asimov book that springs to mind is The God Themselves, which is quite unlike anything else he wrote, but fascinating too.
Unfortunately when I reread Foundation many years later, it did not stand up to my memory. One of the downsides of getting older, if not wiser.
Sadly, I think you overestimate the general interest there would be in such an announcement. Also, it is not as though we will be getting images of little green aliens, any evidence will be far more circumstantial, tentative and over many years. It will be hard to sustain any public excitement for that long.
I think I will settle for not doing it for any reason.
Not just grandpa. How much of what we remember of 9/11 is accurate? How can we be sure? Is anyone fact checking our memories?
This story is about the UK not the US. Pitbulls have been banned in the UK since 1991. There are not many pitbulls in the UK. Although the American XL Bully is closely related to the pitbull, it is not currently banned, but that may soon change.
Voyager used to be a web app, but has now gone native too.
Interesting. Do you have a source for that, please?
I guess the drunk driver has done a lot of driving in a country where they drive on the other side of the road, which would explain why they got confused when drunk.
As a programmer, I have made a career from being one step ahead, thanks to Google. I don’t bother with formal training courses anymore, when a quick skim of Google gives me what I need much quicker. Text books? I have not bought one in decades.
