I even heard on the news unbidden that he had voted. I wonder who he voted for?

Yes, and you definitely used to be able to change the behaviour to stop it highlighting everything, as at one point that was doing my head in so I changed it. I find it easier now just to click twice, rather than trying to find a setting which stops it highlighting everything.

It's a bit odd, but it only needs the basic subscription. It's fair enough, I guess, gives a bit of extra value for the subscription. I can see why they wouldn't want to give access to their entire music library for free.

It even has the Wii Channels music!

 

At the end of the article, there's this interesting fact:

King Edward VII invented his own timezone for the royal estate in Sandringham, Norfolk, in 1901 to squeeze in half-an-hour more hunting time each day

Yes, I think that's probably how it worked.

My memory of token ring is vague, but I think it was originally a ring in series as you said - however token ring switches (that isn't what they were called) also existed, which was the "modern" way of writing up a token ring network.

I suspect there should be something using the IGDB API, if not it ought to be possible to make one. I found this (I didn't try it) but it's not quite what you want: https://github.com/omoosey/video-game-calendar

This is just an episode of ~~Can't Cook, Won't Cook~~ Ready Steady Cook, where one of the contestants has brought in some prunes, cottage cheese, donuts and a lettuce.

I can already hear Ainsley Harriott getting unnecessarily excited.

(Edit: sorry, got my Ainsley Harriott cooking shows muddled up!)

In 2019, France’s best known climate expert sat down to work with its most feted graphic novelist. The result? Perhaps the most terrifying comic ever drawn.

Part history, part analysis, part vision for the future, World Without End weaves the story of humanity’s rapacious appetite for fossil fuel energy, how it has made possible the society people take for granted, and its disastrous effects on the climate.

Unfortunately not. I'd like to, but as you say it's not quite there yet. I probably should try it more frequently.

Ah, why are the black squirrels not mapped? They are slowly taking over from the greys apparently.
