I swapped my Kindle device for an iPad mini a few years ago and never looked back. Kindle used to be the best screen and amazing battery. Now it’s buggy, slow and the battery doesn’t last. Try “syncing to the furthest page read” on a book you’ve read before. www.pocket-lint.com/i-ditched-my...

I had a university radio show at Sussex's University Radio Falmer #URF 1991-1995. It changed me as a person for the better. As a group we got the largest union grant ever to rewire the limited AM broadcast cables throughout campus. Years later all streamed. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/20/s...

Space is big. You just won’t believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it’s a long way down the road to the chemist’s, but that’s just peanuts to space.
What would happen if we could travel at the speed of light?

Cool visualisation 😎💙😎

Amazing photos from NASA of comets Lemon & SWAN show the towering ribbons of pink-red aurora: easy to see why it's those colors of lights people at lower latitudes usually see, as they are the ones higher in the atmosphere.

Simply gorgeous :)

Hugh and Nicholas were excellent in About A Boy. It remade Hugh Grant's image and let him move to a darker place of cads and more recently sinister bounders. I was surprised when I realised Nicholas Hoult was the lead in The Menu and he/it were excellent. 21 years... youtu.be/3a6x6C0kNrM?...
