Nutella just got the best free ad in possibly human history. A jar of it floated across the camera on the Artemis II livestream, halfway to the Moon, completely unbothered.

1/ The US attempted to send several Iran-bound bombers to an Italian air base without prior authorisation and was refused permission by the Italian government while the aircraft were in flight. The news comes a day after Spain disclosed it was refusing US military overflights. ⬇️

Ma perché giornalisti italiani ancora credono a questa idiozia che la stato più povero degli USA (Mississippi) è più ricco della Germania?
Dividere il PIL (gdp) per il numero degli abitanti da un quadro totalmente sbagliato della realtà

The CIA just stopped publishing their World Factbook and took every page, including the archived copies of previous versions!

This sucks. It was public domain, so I recovered the 2020 edition (the last one published as a zip file) and shared it to GitHub simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/5/the-world-factbook/

This project from YouTuber Luxocrates is nothing short of amazing.

I’m so happy I get to play with an Archimedes A3020… in Texas!

Thanks to @adriansdigitalbasement.com ‘s video on converting a bus mouse to an Archie one, I was able to repurpose the same old Logitech C7 in just 10 minutes.

Also in the picture a 4:3 ViewSonic I got for $5 from a local guy.

Today marks the 40th anniversary of the Challenger tragedy.
Mind-blowing that almost no news outlet has remembered it—not even NYT.
That day is seared into my memory in the same way 9/11 is.
I was living in my home country at the time, and I remember myself as a kid crying in front of the TV.

it says 3010 on the label, because the previous owner replaced the broken original top shell with a A3010 one

Archimedes A3020 - a UK expat in Houston put it up for sale on a local retro computing Facebook group.
I had to get it.
Now I need to find a bus mouse to convert to the Acorn pinout, and a monitor.

I'm no purist when it comes to participating in things we all know are bad. I try to reduce my harm but I'm an honest hypocrite.
I won't judge you for still using Spotify, just try this rad alternative. I'm listening to music from Dar es Salaam. Where will you listen to? radio.garden/listen/furaha-fm-90-9/SnY1LxMw
