    Post Office gets government handout as Horizon replacement costs increase ‘significantly’

    December 21, 2023 - By 

    Increasing costs and a lengthening timeline have forced the government to hand the Post Office an extra £103m towards its project to replace the controversial Horizon software used by thousands of subpostmasters. The Horizon system, from Fujitsu, is at the centre of what is regarded the widest miscarriage of justice in UK history when subpostmasters were blamed for unexplained accounting shortfalls, which it caused. In 2021, the Post Office extended its IT services contract with Fujitsu while it prepared to migrate from Horizon, and it’s currently working on a project to replace the system by 2025, with what is known…

    The untold history of Santa’s Village

    Santa’s Village had become a ghost town, closed for nearly two decades. Rides had been auctioned off, much of its electrical equipment was stolen and bark beetle-infested trees — destined for an incinerator — had once taken up residence in its parking lot. But after an extensive cleanup progress, the park, built in 1955 in Skyforest near Lake Arrowhead, was ready again for a close-up. A grand reopening was set for early December 2016. Santa’s house had been remodeled, transformed from an arguably awkward bedroom setting to a cozy, wood-filled nook, and the once kid-focused amusement park had been refashioned…

    The LBX is a premium-focused B-segment car, and for a new arrival in late 2023 it’s fairly novel: there’s no electric version planned, and by expanding into a smaller market, Lexus has bucked the ongoing trend of cars growing to the point that they barely fit on British roads any more. (We will conveniently forget the new supersized LM MPV for now…) That puts the LBX into an intriguing spot in the market: its nearest direct rivals are probably the Audi Q2, which will be retired next year, and the DS 3, which hardly sells.

    I can still remember how gobsmacked I was when I first laid eyes on Little Nightmares from Tarsier Studios. It was a trailer from one of the game’s very early reveals, 7 or 8 years ago, and during some manner of gaming event that I can’t quite recall. E3? Gamescom? Who knows. What I do remember vividly was a small child in a raincoat, wandering through some incredibly creepy environments, trying not to draw the attention of some seriously grotesque-looking individuals.

    December 17, 2023 - By 

    Trump himself has blamed anti-abortion groups and the strict laws they support for electoral defeats in 2022 and 2023. And several prominent conservatives have implored Republicans in the post-Roe era to focus on issues such as contraception and maternal care to improve perception of the GOP’s approach to women’s health as Democrats have wielded the issue to notch several election wins. Conway, lobbyist Susan Hirschmann and Independent Women’s Voice CEO Heather Higgins hope to back up these calls with fresh polling data. On Wednesday, they plan to meet with GOP members and staff in the House and Senate, as well…

    This “smoking gun” killed the McDonald’s ice cream hackers’ startup

    December 17, 2023 - By 

    A little over three years have passed since McDonald’s sent out an email to thousands of its restaurant owners around the world that abruptly cut short the future of a three-person startup called Kytch—and with it, perhaps one of McDonald’s best chances for fixing its famously out-of-order ice cream machines. Until then, Kytch had been selling McDonald’s restaurant owners a popular Internet-connected gadget designed to attach to their notoriously fragile and often broken soft-serve McFlurry dispensers, manufactured by McDonald’s equipment partner Taylor. The Kytch device would essentially hack into the ice cream machine’s internals, monitor its operations, and send diagnostic…

    Actor, comedian and musician Craig Robinson (“The Office,” “Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” “Hot Tub Time Machine”) is upfront about his ideal L.A.

But by gum it makes me cross, the sort of nonsense talked by people who apparently have never left London to know what life is like elsewhere. I have some low-paid workers in my family, and do you know what unites them? They all have access to a car. Because the alternative is that they wouldn’t be able to go to work.
