  • I mean he's not wrong. If you can't have fun without alcohol, that's a you problem.

  • This is commendable, but there are some interesting take aways from the article:

    That modernisation process is being aided by post-pandemic recovery funds from the EU's Next Generation programme. Spain is due to receive up to €163bn by 2026 ($169bn; £136bn), making it the biggest recipient of these funds alongside Italy.

    At the height of the European energy crisis, Spain and Portugal also negotiated with Brussels a so-called "Iberian exception", allowing them to cap the price of gas used to generate electricity in order to reduce consumers' bills

    The heavy reliance on tourism - and a growing backlash against the industry by local people - is one concern.

    Another is Spain's vast public debt, which is higher , external than the country's annual economic output.

    With an uncertain and deeply polarised political landscape, it is difficult for Sánchez's minority government to tackle such problems. But, while it attempts to resolve these conundrums, Spain is enjoying its status as the motor of European growth.

    Sounds like reasons for the economic stability are partially artificial and may not be long lasting.

  • Shamelessly reposting this here, because it seems relevant:

    Negative news has a greater impact on people than positive: https://assets.csom.umn.edu/assets/71516.pdf

    Media sites know this, and use it to drive engagement:

    https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/social-media-facebook-twitter-politics-b1870628.html

    And so, negative headlines are getting worse: https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0276367

    But negative news is addictive and psychologically damaging: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/why-we-worry/202009/the-psychological-impact-negative-news

    So it's important to try and stay positive:

    If you want a break from the constant negativity, here are some sites that report specifically on positive news:

  • We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas!

  • Some key figures from the 2024 Forestry research summary:

    https://www.forestresearch.gov.uk/publications/forestry-facts-figures-2024/

    • There are now 3.28 million hectares of woodland in the UK (as of March 2024)
    • Woodland area in the UK now represents 13.5% of total land area
    • 20,660 hectares of new woodland were created in the UK in 2023/24 (compared to 12,960 in 22/23)
    • There was a 59% increase in new planting and 28% increase in restocking in the UK in 2023/24

    Hopefully that'll make you feel slightly happier :)

  • There's a lag in the figures. We won't find out total usage for 2024 until the beginning of 2025, but the data we do have shows that it will. It's a weirdly worded title, I grant you.

  • Which do you prefer Dishonored 1 or 2? I struggle to pick a favourite, tbh.

  • Massive if correct

  • No. Who cares? It's not like every other meme on here is some artisanal, hand-crafted, high-Art masterpiece?

  • I mean, how's this supposed to work? If your boss is like

    "hey, has anyone seen XYZ, I heard them earlier and saw them in the hallway, but I can't find them now?"

    "they went back home"

    "WTF"

    I get the idea, but I don't see how this is a long term or even particularly practical solution to a boss that wants you back in the office?
