I guess “officially” escaped and survived is a matter of debate.
One survivor was found and sent back. That means he made it — he escaped. But he was caught again and returned to alcatraz.

Lol — They charge money for Windows 11???
Solar currently only generates 30% of UK grid electricity.

For a region that clouds over and rains quite often, you’d think the grid could handle an hour without sunshine during an eclipse. What do they do every night when the sun goes down? Does everyone across the UK just turn everything off? 😂
Perhaps Britain should roll out solar panel incentives and neighborhood battery backups? Some offshore wind might be useful right around now as well.
This is only going to get worse the longer that it’s ignored. Importing fossil fuels isn’t going to fix it. Heat is continually going up — more people will be adding air conditioning and stressing the grid.

There are plenty of “harmless” viruses that we figured out later had horrible long term effects. Epstein-Barr/mono is probably one of them. Evidence is leaning towards it being the cause of Multiple Sclerosis.
It will be interesting to see what the results of future vaccinations for a lot of these turn out to solve.
A lot of people have changes in their sense of smell after contracting covid. It will be interesting to see if the “soap” taste comes back to you eventually.
Solar panels are cheap these days and end up paying for themselves in cost savings. Especially when you own the factory that makes them.
It’s faster to reach a billion dollars when ticket prices are at an all time high.
Shame on VW for abandoning their core models like the Beetle, the Ghia, and Sirocco.
I wonder if they’ll vote for Paxton in November?
They’re just switching to Axon.
I’m reminded of when Phil Collins flew the concorde so he could perform at both Live Aid concerts in 1985.
I wonder if anyone in BMW accounting did the math to figure out potential future loss of sales vs ad revenue.
Can’t wait to see how Hollywood spins this picture as “losing money” when tax time rolls around.
Both the 1970s mini series and the more recent version?
Dark Place was so much fun! I tried Merenghi’s latest audiobook, but it just didn’t click for me. ☹️
Well, I guess that frees up his time to work on Mindhunter.
I’d be hyped for it if it didn’t cost $60.
