Season 1 (Series 14) Episode 7: "The Legend of Ruby Sunday" (spoilers)
  • Or, it could be Susan. They know about the Tardis, and they’ve been pretty passive about interactions with the doctor or Ruby. And unlike a lot of people on other forums, not making tea is not necessarily evil. It’s rude, but it’s not evil.

  • Pets (1973)
  • Also headlining with Ed Bishop, ye of ITV’s series “UFO” and the odd Bond film. He and Shane Rimmer were the go-to Americans when you needed one in British film and TV.

  • Boeing sales tumble as the company gets no orders for the 737 Max for the second straight month
  • But if you think about it, millennials could be pushing a dialogue in popular media that Boeing is part of the big industrial war machine, and deserves to die. I’ve heard lesser fabricated arguments on the Internet.

    In any event, thanks for the heads up.

  • New to the concept of free energy. [More in body. There is no bottom to the crazy here.]
  • Genuinely true: Knew a guy in our expat group who had a really unique conspiracy theory: Those electric windmills you see on the landscape? He though you’d need constantly gale force winds to move the blades an inch, so he was pushing this theory that they’re not there to generate electricity, but to secretly to consume excess electricity, basically burning it off to help keep energy/oil costs high.

  • After Tesla, the surprising next best-selling electric vehicle in America is this electric bike
  • We’re pretty flat here in the Netherlands - 250w is fine, but thanks for the suggestion. I’m not racing and our ride through the heathers and up a few dunes aren’t tough even without an electric wheel, but it’s more to make much-needed exercise less onerous.

    Mac Teams users - Are you having trouble logging in?

    It's not by choice I have to use Teams, but by corporate edict, but currently there's definitely something happening with Teams, 2002 errors, hidden files or crosslinks and crashes. It's driving many of us hopping mad for weeks:

    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msteams/forum/all/microsoft-teams-something-went-wrong-2002-error/d6ff0a12-6540-41c4-8683-9cb68f001cbb

    Anyone else having problems? I posted a temporary solution in the MS thread, but maybe someone knows a fix? Or perhaps we can give this a bit of notoriety so MS will do something about it!

    Elon Musk won’t fight Mark Zuckerberg in a ‘cage match’ – because he knows he’d lose
    www.theguardian.com Elon Musk won’t fight Mark Zuckerberg – because he knows he will lose | Hamilton Nolan

    America’s richest and most cowardly man, Musk, proposed an idiotic cage-match, then came up with every excuse not to actually do it

    Elon Musk won’t fight Mark Zuckerberg – because he knows he will lose | Hamilton Nolan

    It's a very good takedown of Muskrat. Fun quote:

    "Fights can reveal a person’s character. That would be Musk’s worst fear. As frivolous as all of this jawing has been, it is very much in keeping with a lifetime of acting like a selfish brat and getting away with it... Scientists could not design a man more likely to get whipped in a fair fight."

    About a decade ago, Tesla rigged the dashboard readouts in its electric cars to provide “rosy” projections of how far owners can drive before needing to recharge, a source told Reuters.

    Can I post on Mastodon with a Lemmy account?

    Still figuring out the fediverse, but I know that Mastodon users can (in an oblique way) post to Lemmy. Is there a way to have a Lemmy account and post to a Mastodon instance/section/thingie?

    I wanted to respond to something on https://front-end.social/local but I'm trying to avoid creating more social media accounts I won't use.

    Thanks!
