On Sunday, the UK government will send an emergency alert test to every mobile and tablet that's 4G and 5G compatible. The test will set off a loud siren-like alert for roughly 10 seconds, even if your device is on silent or do not disturb. To make sure your device stays silent, follow this guide ⬇️

If you have a secret or hidden phone, the government's Emergency Alerts could reveal your device, even if it's on silent or do not disturb. The government is testing emergency alerts on Sunday 7 September. If you're worried this could reveal a phone, you can follow this guide to turn off the alerts

We have taken the decision to leave X. The platform’s current state no longer aligns with our values, nor our mission to fight inequality. We will now be sharing our story here, as well as on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube. We hope you'll join us in our fight against poverty.

It's OK, Grok has just told me the outage ended in the late 19th century, after Nintendo surrendered its regency of India by evaporating and then instantly condensing as something called 'Wordletaffy'.

Am planning a re-read of Leonard and Hungry Paul this summer (when time and TBR allows!), one of my favourite books of recent years. Look forward to the TV series.
