It amuses me that top experts in the field can't definitively say if a product is genuine pure honey. At that point, why are we stealing the bees' hard work?

These researchers are bastards! Why didn't they transplant the gut microbiome from the mouse to the human instead, to cure the test patient's social anxiety?

a big factor here is dogs. if you have your pet with you on a lead, and there are calves(baby cows) in the field, sometimes a normally docile cow herd will be very protective of their offspring. generally if there is no dog, cows realise you are not a threat.

the article states that drax burning wood produces four times the CO2 of radcliffe burning coal; however it fails to mention how much electricity was produced by each one. i expect better from the guardian, but we didn't get it in this report.

i wonder if he annoys the elk as much as the one from 'shrek' !

That works very well in Wales already, and its saved dozens of lives. Also, as a driver you get to see a bit more off the town as you go through because you are travelling slowly. I'm happy with that.

In the UK, you can phone the bank and ask them to block Netflix payments. Some banks even let you do that from their app already. Its called a recurring card payment. Just changing your card (for instance reporting the card lost) doesn't work cos all banks helpfully tell Netflix your new card numbers to save you the hassle. You don't even have to let Netflix know at all.

well for a start it produces 0 gas emissions at point of use. we still have to sort out tyre fragments and brake dust, and ensure the electricity grid is non-polluting too. but every hybrid car is burning petrol or diesel, just the same as we've been doing for the last 100 years or so. recent research in the uk has shown that plug-in hybrids are often not plugged in because it's too much bother.

UK, smarty, £8 per month unlimited texts and calls, 60Gb data per month.tethering included

in the uk texts are usually free unlimited, and a majority of people have rcs (rich chat services) enabled which means they are end to end encrypted - and uncensorable. RCS is very similar to imessage in results, though it works in a different way.

i genuinely laughed aloud at the clever ending. thank you for posting this.

Upvoted just because scientists have some wonderfully whimsical names for their discoveries.

If you were using your laptop as your only communication device, you'd need it switched on all the time you were awake. Not convenient.

The stuff isn't toxic in any way. It will swell up as it absorbs water but if you ate a packet or two no harm woulld result.

this is a complicated balance between plastic in the environment and pesticides in the environment !

Use molly, a signal fork. Fully compatible with signal but you can configure how it checks for new messages. Non-google play is an explicit option

that's true, but usually the bank's policies/systems were not decided upon by the minimum-wage call handler who is being abused down the phone.

it only works if you both have the 'RCS' chat option enabled within your sms app. so if you switch your rcs to off, you won't be able to edit your sent texts and senders will not be able to change messages you've received. however, rcs messages are often faster than standard sms.

I have a super low-wattage one, its 600w. That means it boils water quite slowly BUT.... even on a cloudy day, my solar panels create enough free electricity to run it. So free cups of tea! I also fill a mug with water, pour that into the kettle and boil it - not one unnecessary drop of water is heated. I'm very pleased with my setup. (If I had a 3000w standard kettle I'd get my drink 5 times faster but would need to pay to import the power unless it was a really sunny day).
