But looking at the departures now KLM has had to step in and run it themselves, they are also suffering from delays so it wasn’t an inherent EA problem

Really surprised and sad to hear about the collapse of Eastern Airways. As a frequent traveller on their KLM code share between Teeside & Grimsby and Amsterdam, I can say the crew are lovely and the aircraft’s kept in a good condition inside. Quite often plagued with delays

@flightradar24.com Very quiet airspace over the Netherlands this morning due to fog! Been informed on an aircraft waiting to go to Schiphol, it’s at least an hour until engines on…

Next month I’m visiting Riga for the first time ever!

It’s funny how the problem around you can influence where you go on holiday. We have a bunch of Latvian and Estonian crew onboard, and I think without having known them I would never have booked a holiday to either country.

I was so worried about CarPlay looking awful with the borders. It’s so much more muted and refined in person.

Alex Lamond @alexlamond.co.uk · Aug 22

Moved to the iOS 26 beta on my iPhone having had it on my iPad since the beginning. It’s a much nicer experience on an iPhone, and so so much better than it was portrayed in the keynote

I wanted to hate it. I actually kinda like it. CarPlay is also so much nicer than the preview images.

We are on the cusp of AGI, definitely for real

Google search for "all you can eat buffet near me" with an "ai overview" of the results saying that you can use Google to search "all you can eat buffet near me" to find a buffet.

People might be disappointed with some (or much) of what Labour has done in the last year, but for this to be true, people really do have the most extraordinarily short memories - and must be paying no attention to the current Tory Party, over the last year.

Calling media, and even saying some people in the group there; are scum is just not okay. Oh ye I would just love being called “Scum” to my face. What a vile specimen of a human being.

This is fucking bonkers. What’s he gonna do? Blow her and the EU delegate up? Surely it is against international law, and is a war crime, to prevent the access of vital aid to a country. No matter how bad you claim they are.

Chips van Lays voortaan in een doosje, kiloprijs schiet omhoog

Het betekent voor de consument minder gekraak en de doos is hersluitbaar, maar de chips in het nieuwe jasje is vooral duurder.

I'm super disappointed at Yvette Cooper and Labour for pushing ahead with this. The Investigatory Powers Act was passed under the Tory government with widespread support in Parliament, but no government should be ruining end-to-end encryption like this.

Apple is pulling its iCloud Advanced Data Protection encryption feature in the UK after government spying demands. You can no longer enable ADP in the UK, and existing users will have to disable it at some point to keep using their iCloud accounts www.theverge.com/news/617273/...

Apple pulls encryption feature from UK over government spying demands

@bethrigby.bsky.social When you are on the trips to foreign countries like Ukraine and the USA with PM - Do you get to experience the him in a 'causal' mode or do you only get to see him when it is business related. E.g. on the train, do you get to 'chill' with the PM, or is he off limits?

It’s wonderfully fascinating hearing Ruth be so critical of her own party. Its current and past leaders, the policies, the decisions.

Being able to look in hindsight, we missed a trick with Theresa May. She was a powerhouse we all downplayed. Instead we landed with Boris and the ensuing shit show.

What a hell of an episode it was. Listen in the car, and couldn’t believe how fast those 40 minutes flew by. So many things I want to comment on, but I’ll wait to listen to it again. Elon, Trump, Starmer, Conservatives. Phew.
