@followwollof66 In the last 10/15 years there isn't another city in Scotland that has gone so fast downhill, tragic to see.

This is my first time in Glasgow City centre in ages and its really depressing ..even at this time of the morning its like being in a third world country ...homeless in lots of doorways ,migrants absolutely everywhere and rubbish piled high ..the decline is unbelievable

@JuttNut @Titan37_ I have heard that a couple of times over the years.........

@Titan37_ Altcoins are dead, retail ain’t coming back, they got no money

$VET cycle tells us a lot, I’m very bullish on it now and we will get another opportunity later maybe higher low or a double bottom before the big cycle as 2021.

@CleansedTweets The wake up song seems like a lifetime ago, remember the banger 'crypto boy ' 😂😂

I can't wait for #crypto twitter to come back. 💕 Q the 'wake up' song😅 Defo make a new one when it does.

@Johncas15655003 @catandthecrow Solid blue sky makes the world feel better 😅🌞

@catandthecrow my current view

@CleansedTweets Admire the dedication 🫡

My X Revenue Experiment: The Details Last month, I had solid engagement on X and received about $400 in ad revenue for a two-week period. Tomorrow, the next payout drops. The overall metrics are slightly up across the board (except replies and reposts). Based on that, I can assume a $450–$500 payment tomorrow. However, X has been tweaking how they reward X users lately: -They’re pushing hard for original video content (which I rarely post) -They seem to be de-emphasizing shares & reposts (which I do a lot) -Impressions from unverified accounts now count for zero revenue Recently, this account gained thousands of new followers from China, most of whom are unverified. So those big spikes in impressions and engagement might be misleading. The actual payout could end up lower than the last $400, not higher. I’ll find out tomorrow. Any guesses on the exact amount? If you guess correctly, there might be a surprise in it for you 💕

No this isn't a joke, remember 16 year olds vote on Scotland, blatant bribery of easily influenced teens🤦 You actually have to admire it on a certain level.

@ScotNational Are you bribing people with tax payers money? That's a bold move

Every young Scot will be given £200 to spend on cultural pursuits on their 18th birthday if the SNP are returned to power in the May elections, the party has pledged📽️ #Echobox=1776930234-2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">thenational.scot/news/26044983.…

@NickDixonITV @GMB Now that is cool 😎

I’ve loved this #Jaws experience this morning on the world’s first full size replica of the Orca. It’s taken 3 years to create and you can go onboard in Conwy, north Wales. Amazing props, attention to detail and no need for a bigger boat… @GMB 🦈

@JamesMelville Ferrari f430 Scuderia has to be up there......

I’m my opinion, the most beautiful car ever made. The classic Aston Martin DB5. An icon of British culture and James Bond. What do you think is the most beautiful car ever made?

@theSNP Please explain in detail how this will work? I was under the belief that wind power was heavily subsidised.

A re-elected SNP government will establish a ScotWind Wealth Fund so the benefits of Scotland’s renewables boom help deliver long-term energy and financial security for the future. Make it #BothVotesSNP on May 7 for a government that’s on your side.

@RidyardMike An uncomfortable truth. Electricity in the UK is ridiculously overpriced for numerous reasons.

A survey of 1,000 heat pump owners last summer, carried out by Censuswide for Ecotricity, found two-thirds said their homes were more expensive to heat than before. My gas is 5.46p kWh and electricity 25p kWh. Electricity is far too expensive.⚡️📈💷

@Keir_Starmer You are a disgrace to the United Kingdom.

St George’s flag stands for unity over hatred and decency over division. Those are the values I will always fight for. Some try to hijack our flag to spread hate, I reject their plastic patriotism. mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

@Skelhorn You realise she didn't win any game? It was just money that appeared in her online betting account, the same as if you had money deposited by error into your bank account, you haven't earned nor do you have a legal claim to the money. This story has deliberately avoided specifics

26 Years in this industry and it still bothers me players get treated so poorly. Ok it’s a glitch, explain it but don’t give the poor girl nothing after telling her she’s won a million. £50k from MetaWin and an apology on behalf of our industry. We’re not all bad, I promise. 🙇‍♂️

@A1an_M Great post, as with everything the government does, always look at the wider implications, not the simplistic, knee jerk sound bite they are relying on.

It occurred to me the other day that a lot of my recent disagreements with people about world events have probably been caused by the fact that I look at everything from the viewpoint of an engineer trying to solve a problem, and avoid creating new problems. The debate on the UK smoking ban for people under a certain age is a good example. Would it be a good thing, overall, if no-one smoked cigarettes any more? Yes. What is the best way of achieving that, without causing undesirable second-order effects? Carrying on doing what we've been doing, which has clearly been successful, since very few young people smoke cigarettes now compared to one or two generations ago? Yes, I think that would work. Would a ban achieve the same result? Perhaps, but it might suddenly make cigarettes attractive to young, foolish, contrary people. Will banning it for some people but not others be easy to enforce? No it won't. What negative side-effects might it cause? It might create a brand new black market, which could help to finance more crime. It will require smokers to carry ID to prove their age - another small step towards digital ID for everyone. And it gets people more accustomed to the idea that the State's job is to ban things and interfere with people's personal life and personal choices. That might not seem so bad for smoking if you're not a smoker, but what happens when they come for your drug of choice, or something else you enjoy, or want, or need? Who will speak for you? The Iran War is another example. I've had a lot of stick and lost followers for opposing the war. Is the current regime in Iran authoritarian? Yes. Would a change of regime there be a good thing for the population? Yes, it probably would. Is executing the leadership, bombing infrastructure, threatening invasion, the best way of achieving that? No. Is it likely to be counter-productive? Yes. Just look at the state of the world now compared to before the war (re-)started. There's every chance the outcome will be a more authoritarian regime in Iran than before. I suppose this is why governments are typically led by lawyers and economists and politics graduates rather than engineers. They're more interested in ideology and money and power and control than coming up with real, workable, long-term solutions to actual problems.

@EVCurveFuturist "Outside recalls" Are warranty claims on battery packs included in this figure?

99.7% of EVs will never need a battery replacement. Petrolheads can keep parroting “what about the battery?” all day. The real-world data says otherwise. Tracking thousands of EVs built since 2022: Just 0.3% have needed a battery replacement (outside recalls). That’s 99.7% still running fine. Now compare that to ICE: Some engines hit failure rates of ~3.7% That’s 12× higher than EV battery replacements. Even the best engines barely approach ~0.3% And that’s just the engine, not the rest of the drivetrain. Here’s the reality: EVs • One core system • Minimal moving parts • Thermal management + smart chemistry (LFP especially) • Gradual, predictable degradation ICE • Hundreds of moving parts • Constant heat, pressure, friction • Multiple failure points • When it goes, it goes hard Modern EV batteries are cooled, managed, and preconditioned to last. So while people keep yelling “battery replacement”… They stay quiet about far more common, far more expensive engine failures. The data is clear. The panic isn’t and the lies are coming undone.

@LowCarbonD61778 How many would fit them without the 9k grant? They can't stand on their own two feet as the government has skewed the market with grants as usual. The tax payer is funding it all as usual.

Isn’t it funny how the home gas burners and ice car drivers are such experts on other people alternative tech…..120,000 heat pumps went in last year and with a £9k grant to help those relying on LPG or oil to change to heat pumps it will grow each year .

@Mattisamazing33 I have a pair of Piloti trainers for driving 👍

Do you have some kind of special footwear to drive in if you’re going some distance?

@louismosley @_BoldPolitics @ZackPolanski Quite how anyone could vote for the green party in its current form is mine boggling.

@ZackPolanski - this is magnificent. Three things I can’t deny: 1. It is a video. 2. You are wearing a jacket. 3. Then you aren’t. 4. Then you are again. Unfortunately that’s where the accuracy ends. A few corrections for you: Peter Thiel is not our CEO. Alex Karp is — and has been for 20+ years. (A lifelong Democrat, for anyone keeping score.) We are not a “spyware company.” Spyware is malware. Malware is illegal. Calling a software company spyware is, technically, defamatory (don’t worry, we are not suing). We don’t build surveillance technology. We build software that helps organisations make sense of data they already hold. Not the same thing. There was no “private tour” of our HQ. There was a public photocall to which the media came. Hence, why there are so many pictures of the event. Our MOD contract is not “the biggest defence contract in UK history.” Ajax armoured vehicles = £5.5bn. Dreadnought submarines = £31bn. We’re grateful for the work, but let’s keep a sense of scale. We have no more access to NHS data than Microsoft has to the contents of your Word documents. I think you know this by now. We don’t have access to patient medical records. Same story. I agree that “nothing matters more than our health.” Which makes it worth reminding you of what Palantir’s software is actually doing in the NHS right now: ->110,000 additional operations ->15% fewer delayed hospital discharges ->7% more patients finding out within 28 days whether they have cancer Respect again for what you did with that jacket.

Time to take the fight to Palantir.

@BMW That is absolutely hideous, I take it you just design now to pander to the Chinese market and their love of oversized, ugly grills?

A tribute to dedication.   Introducing the new BMW 7.   #BMW #THENEWBMW7 #7Series
