The business practices of HP which lock people into buying their hugely expensive ink. I have a very old laser printer I will never update as it will then not accept third party cartridges. There needs to be legal protection for consumers. EU forced changes on Apple.
Animals keep evolving into crabs; it's a process called "carcinisation" and it's pretty weird. Crabs just turn out to be extremely evolutionarily fit for our current environment:

Very cool to see Invisible Wind Factory at Factory Manchester for artist takeover. Part of an immersive world being prototyped at scale. Good to see them being recognised at a regional level as an innovator in immersive.
Utterly irresponsible journalism with zero challenge. IEA is funded by right wingers who profit after NHS was run into the ground by conseratives for this very purpose. Look to USA to see bankruptcy and deaths caused by a for profit system. Save lives? Repair damage to NHS.

Populism, not an ideology, but a technique to retain power and subjugate investigative journalism.
Emily Maitlis, "Populist parties can shape shift between the right and left.. It's not an ideology.. It's a means to achieve and retain power"
We saw this with the Conservative party in our recent election where Rishi Sunak would use words like 'surrender' if people chose to 'vote' for Keir Starmer
And we see this now in the US where a former president, Trump, trying to reelect himself as president, is telling lies about the current US vice president who is trying to be elected as president, saying that she doesn't support Christmas
Countries prosper only when politics shifts from personal enrichments towards public service

BREAKING: Former Trump official Stephanie Grisham delivers a fiery speech at the DNC and exposes her former boss, revealing that Trump "mocks his supporters" behind closed doors — before spilling the beans on Melania.
And Grisham was just getting started...
"I wasn't just a Trump supporter, I was a true believer. I was one of his closest advisors. The Trump family became my family," said Grisham. "I spent Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's all at Mar-a-Lago."
"I saw him when the cameras were off. Behind closed doors, Trump mocks his supporters. He calls them basement dwellers," she continued.
"On a hospital visit one time when people were dying in the ICU, he was mad that the cameras were not watching him," she revealed. "He has no empathy, no morals, and no fidelity to the truth."
"He used to tell me 'it doesn't matter what you say Stephanie, say it enough and people will believe you.' But it does matter," said Grisham. "What you say matters and what you don't say matters."
"On January 6th I asked Melania if we could at least tweet 'that while peaceful protest is the right of every American, there's no place for lawlessness or violence.' She replied with one word: 'No," said Grisham.
"I became the first senior staffer to resign that day," said Grisham to a round of enthusiastic applause. "I couldn't be part of the insanity any longer."
America is done with Donald Trump. It's time to move towards a brighter future for all of us. By electing Kamala Harris, we can save this country from any more insanity.
