Blew up a bit in the last 3 miles, 2:02.23. he looked about as broken at the end as I've ever seen from an elite so he didn't leave anything out there

Don't look now, but there's several men on pace for a marathon WR in Chicago, including Jacob Kiplimo. Might even be the first legit sub-2 hours...

30km in and on for 2:00.16 for Kiplimo. It's getting real now

Holding onto the ball way too long. He's got open teammates asking for the ball while he turns into another two defenders. He'll need to sort that before getting near the first team

This is one of those little wins the government could take. It's a relatively easy problem to solve and would particularly help younger people. I'm not sure why they aren't fixing it

Seems like this is one area where Jesus and the Devil would find common ground

Multi billionaire conducts months of historical and theological research into the Antichrist. Discovers, shockingly, that one thing the Antichrist would definitely do is tax billionaires. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

He believes the Armageddon will be ushered in by an antichrist-type figure who cultivates a fear of existential threats such as climate change, Al and nuclear war to amass inordinate power. The idea is this figure will convince people to do everything they can to avoid something like a third world war, including accepting a one-world order charged with protecting everyone from the apocalypse that implements a complete restriction of technological progress. In his mind, this is already happening. Thiel said that international financial bodies, which make it more difficult for people to shelter their wealth in tax havens, are one sign the antichrist may be amassing power and hastening Armageddon, saying: "It's become quite difficult to hide one's money."

Bold move for an autocrat to not look after the military

It's made drinking out so much better for me. It's the only non-alcoholic drink I've had which is as satisfying as a real pint

Awesome news for all those universities that have already (Oxford) or are lining up expensive contracts for pro versions of ChatGPT. Can't wait for all those anti-woke assignments to come rolling in

Genuine question: for those enthusiastically pushing AI tools into every part of our education system—what checks/guardrails are there around algorithmic biases like this?

The administration “is currently pressuring OpenAI and other AI companies to make their models more conservative-friendly.”

He'll come good eventually, but he could have made it easier by just training during the summer. It turns out that actions have consequences. His world cup hopes look shaky as well

I forgot that the doctor's response was: "so I'm Harold Shipman?!"

The best is still when they banished a doctor in the last series entirely because "it just makes sense. You save people by day, kill by night."

I think this is underappreciated, certainly in wider circles. People with 20-30 years of their working life ahead of them are going to be shut out of their profession. It's devastating

In the civilian series, anyone who presents as a bit clever gets immediately banished. This is just who we are as a people

America has gone. European leaders should be frantically preparing for what it means when the entire continent is left without its most powerful ally

New from 404 Media: the Discord hack is every users' worst nightmare. Yesterday the hackers started posting Discord users' selfies, identity documents, email addresses, phone numbers, more. I watched in real time. This is risk of tech storing ID for age verification

The Discord Hack is Every Users’ Worst Nightmare

Almost certain he'll be back there at some point. It's a bit worrying that contract talks don't seem to be on the agenda yet. He deserves it. I don't think he's had a bad game in the last year. Even when the team is awful, he's a good 7/10

Indeed. There have been anti-fascists for as long as there have been fascists

From Donald Trump's Roundtable on Antifa just now —
"Antifa has been around in various iterations for almost 100 years in some instances, going back to the Weimar Republic in Germany."

Delighted to report that Keith is back on form with this important poem about ID Cards, and if I’m very much mistaken*, it’s to the tune of Stop by The Spice Girls.

YOUR POEMS
ID Card
by Keith J Furnival
STOP, ID card, where are you going, where have you been?
This photograph doesn't look like you, get it changed.
You are being reported, you will lose credits.
STOP, ID card, you can't buy that, cholesterol count too high, government warning.
Please do not ask why, rules are rules.
Do not question, just comply.
STOP, ID card.
this vehicle is out of zone, didn't you read today's app.
There will be a fine, credits will be deducted, your travel will be restricted.
Are you a nonconformist?
We will rectify that.
STOP, ID card, stay home and comply.
No need to go out, your card is your everything.
All will be delivered, the state will provide.
You will submit, we are watching you.

STOP, ID card.

My secondary school had a narrow climbing wall that was never used during my entire time there. I assume the school was upsold it while buying equipment they were actually likely to use. The boys were also not allowed to use the javelins for what I think are quite prejudiced reasons
