feeds.bbci.co.uk Unknown 2025-10-26 19:09:32

Musk files to dismiss lawsuit over his purchase of Twitter shares Musk's lawyers, filing shortly before the court's deadline for his response, called the lawsuit "a waste of this Court's time and taxpayer resources". It said this had allowed him to save about $150m (£123m) by purchasing shares in Twitter - which he bought outright months later and renamed X - at "artificially low prices". The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) said in a January complaint that Musk failed to disclose

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-26 16:32:45

Tushar Mehta / Android Authority TL;DR The Pixel Sounds app is getting a Material 3 Expressive redesign. The update rearranges sound collections into grids and introduces new shapes for selections. The redesign is currently officially limited to the Pixel 10, but you can update any older Pixel by sideloading the APK. There’s no better way for Google to inspire developers to embrace Android’s new design philosophy than by adopting new elements itself. That’s precisely what it has been doing.

The Wild, Citywide Scavenger Hunt That Ate San Francisco

On a Wednesday night in August, hundreds of people gathered in the lobby of Apple Cinemas in central San Francisco. To gain admission to the event, attendees had to say a secret code word to the crew working the door: three giggling children wearing oversize “SECURITY” caps. The throng inside hunted for QR codes on the walls and admired a makeshift art gallery that showcased a collection of paintings, each referencing a famous historical work—Vermeer’s Girl With a Pearl Earring, Munch’s The Scr

The King's Quarry: How Louis XVI Went from Hunter to Hunted

news.ycombinator.com George Dillard 2025-10-25 05:52:47

Marie Antoinette on the hunt ( Public domain ) One of the most famous diary entries of all time consists of a single word: rien, which is French for “nothing.” It’s what King Louis XVI recorded on July 14, 1789, the day the Bastille was stormed. This entry (or lack thereof) is often cited as evidence of the king’s disinterest in the brewing revolution. The standard narrative about Louis is that he was simply not up to the task of dealing with the forces that threatened his throne. As a second

A forgotten medieval fruit with a vulgar name (2021)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-26 06:34:31

Medieval Europeans were fanatical about a strange fruit that could only be eaten rotten. Then it was forgotten altogether. Why did they love it so much? And why did it disappear? In 2011, archaeologists found something unusual in a Roman toilet. The team were excavating the ancient village of Tasgetium (now Eschenz, Switzerland), ruled by a Celtic king who was personally given the land by Julius Caesar. It was built on the banks of the river Rhine, along what was then an important trade route

This has the potential to overtake AetherSX2, which is based on an outdated PSCX2 build.
