If you’re British, you might want to sign this.
If you’re not, please boost.
The current Prime Minister was not voted in, and he’s making a lot of decisions that will harm most of the UK; everyone will be affected. Time to call a general election and let the public decide for better or worse (harder to imagine the latter tbh)
@Plus_Ultra heh, greasy... yeah, not the most level headed person in the 'verse, there ;) glfor me, I'm thinking not this year (maybe evocati at the very end of the year), and in live sometime during the first half of the year, possibly for alien week
Did you know that #StarCitizen has quite a lot of lore? For example, a drinks company called Fieldsbury did a campaign with their bear mascot for Day of the Vara (the in universe Halloween style celebration), and it caught on, and now a replica company makes helmets in that's style. And you can pick them up in game, and they look like this :) (oh, and there's a really good deal on the Cutter starter pack, see my link here - no free fly, though!) https://www.reddit.com/r/starcitizenreferrals/comments/1718y93/starf3v9nvlk_for_5000_uec_more_see_post/

I'm extremely sad and angry at the felling at #SycamoreGap, and will probably do another thread on that, but would just like to take a moment to appreciate Simon Heywood's poem and how it ties into the #folk tradition of rage and protest

New position statement from a large cross-section of the #OpenSource community (including both @osi and @fsfe) with final comments about what's wrong with the #CRA - tl;dr:

PSA: Google has now begun to roll-out the Ad Topics "feature" onto Android itself. It's not just in Chrome you have to disable the settings. Please #Boost to spread awareness.
If you didn't get the pop-up screen on your Android device (it'll look like the first two screenshots), to opt-out of these settings:
If you don't see "Ad Privacy" in Step 4 then it means that it hasn't been rolled out to you yet. You might need to wait and check back in a couple of days to see if/when it has been implemented to disable these settings.
@Plus_Ultra yes, really look forward to that being a thing - doubtless not before the control surfaces stuff arrives, but really looknling forward to that :)
@ikani yeah! It's really great, look forward to that now :)
