- BBC News - Ten 100-year predictions that came true
One of the ones they have tagged as wrong would have been right if he'd said "a lot of" instead of "all", too....
- This Photograph Is Not Free
Interesting article on the true cost of an individual photograph.
- We’ve started manufacture! | Raspberry Pi
OMG I am so excited about this. As is Holly. The article also details why the finished pi won't be made in the UK. The reasons are entirely understandable, and frankly, Vince, you need to sort this shit out (there's an e-petition here: http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/27158 which I have signed, and encourage you to do too)
- Mental Illness Community for Skeptics

More truly shocking shafting of the disabled from this govt :(
- State Rep. Threatens 'to Stomp' Transgender People in "Wrong" Bathrooms
American politics is so much more pugnacious than ouyrs, isn't it? Glad to see the poll is currently 85% in favour of people using whatever bathrooms they feel like. Me, personally, I like that our local gym/pool complex has one great big changing room (with cubicles for those who need it) for everyone. It's a lot easier than arbitrary division by sex or gender.
