For more than two decades, Sergey Lavrov has been Russia’s top foreign diplomat, representing the Kremlin regime around the world.
And then, he was gone.
Mr Lavrov, 75, has been the country’s foreign minister since 2004, and is widely rated as being among President Vladimir Putin’s closest allies.
But it has been three weeks since his last official appearance, sparking speculation he has fallen foul of Russia’s ruthless leader.


Vibe math. No thank you
Arthur C Clarke is an excellent author and the Rama series is one of my all-time favourites. I’d recommend anything by Philip K Dick, though honestly I think a good reference would be to pick works listed in the SF Masterworks collection, it’s how I found many of my favourite SF novels.
If you fancy venturing into modern SF classics, my favourites are by Peter F Hamilton, Iain M Banks and William Gibson; though does Gibson count? He doesn’t even have a middle initial 😄


Note that it was City of London Police involved. The City of London is quite distinct and different from the London that tourists know of. The City of London is owned by the corporations (mainly financial institutions) within its boundary, it is self-governing and has the right to set up it’s own police force which can take enforcement action in any part of the UK, not just the City of London. They are basically an enforcement arm for corporations and are very interested in things like enforcing intellectual property claims.
I like how Hawkeye has now been relegated to making line calls at international tennis tournaments


Stone cold classic.

Strong agree. I’m likely to request to be cremated when my time comes. In 60 years no-one will remember me, no-one will be visiting my grave.


I have started to do this and I’m using Docker to host Kiwix. I’m currently using it to provide offline versions of Wikipedia, medical guides and tutorials for various programming languages. My plan is to put essential apps and information on an RPi and provide a broadcast hotspot where anyone can access the info.
I also live on top of a hill, so I’m saving up to put together a solar powered Meshtastic repeater that I can mount to my aerial pole.


Wireless Application Protocol. I can no longer say on my CV that I ‘worked on WAP in the early 2000s’.


The dread and despair is so real.


Gives Event Horizon vibes



It has high integration with both the Capcom Hyper Advanced Intensity Rig and the Sony Optical Firmware Adapter


Then you’ll also be really disappointed to hear that I’ve been sitting on this for over 40 years.


Yes, if you have the Logic Unit Base Expansion
The symptoms I live with daily as a result of ADHD are not the same as those used to diagnose ADHD, and I recognised that in 2022 when seeing videos of people’s lived experiences of ADHD made me realise they were talking about my lived experience.
I then when on to do a screening questionnaire which I spoke to my doctor about, who then agreed to refer me to a specialist psychiatrist for diagnosis.
The article basically boils down to the obvious ‘don’t take what you see on social media at face value, do some research’ and isn’t a revelation about ADHD content, more that they took a subset of content on a social media platform and found that non-experts in the field were as susceptible to inaccurate information on ADHD as likely most non-experts in any subject would be when encountering content on that subject on social media.


Yet more anti-consumer technology to go alongside the gates that won’t let you out until you scan your receipt, the ANPR in the car park, the hair-trigger scales on the bagging area, etc. All to crush that extra penny of profit from us.
If true, God spends a lot of time dreaming up scantily-clad, uwu-looking cat girls for an army of socially isolated believers
