Ben Stokes is a very good cricketer, but a very poor captain. No surprise it's ending like this. #Ashes

Waking up to the ashes score down under is a lot like an FA cup draw. You’re hoping for something good, but you know there’s a good chance you’ll be disappointed with Crawley

@btharris93 Sadly I think it's probably a little harsh on the medieval peasantry!

The explosion of Medieval Peasant Brain over the past few years is horrifying. I genuinely fear for the future of the human race.

We are devastated by the passing of Ace Frehley. He was an essential and irreplaceable rock soldier during some of the most formative foundational chapters of the band and its history. He is and will always be a part of KISS's legacy. Our thoughts are with Jeanette, Monique and all those who loved him, including our fans around the world.

I understand the printer of the infamous ‘Britian’ chocolate bars is the actual culprit for the spelling error… A senior Tory source tells me they spent a long time going through emails today after the clusterdisaster and it wasn’t on their side - the printer is “mortified”….

@_owlornothing_ I felt exactly the same way last year - I know everyone says this, but the viva was genuinely a much more pleasant experience than I'd gone in expecting! Eventually you even start to like the period you study again... 😂

@thomasforth I switched to a relatively cheap snapdragon laptop a few months ago with some initial reticence over Arm based Windows. Performance and battery life both far above any other windows laptop I've had.

Well, it looks like Qualcomm have done it. We're switched over 50% to ARM chips at work. It looks like we'll switch over completely unless Intel or AMD come out with something very special in 2026 when the new Snapdragon chips come out. Simply astonishing benchmarks.

This really is very interesting for computer people. But also path dependency and economic geography people. It looks increasingly like a company in San Diego is going to smash its way into being a key player in computers.

It is with profound sadness that The Yorkshire County Cricket Club announces the passing of Harold Dennis “Dickie” Bird MBE OBE, one of cricket’s most beloved figures, who died peacefully at home at the age of 92.

“Things like the Battle of Britain show what is possible when a nation does unite across politics, across culture.” Though the Luftwaffe were superior “on paper”, the RAF managed to turn the tide, says historian @SpitfireFilly. @hugorifkind | #TimesRadio
