The scariest words in the English language are We'll just take a quick snapshot of the database and then bring it back up with replication enabled.
Ten years after Fukushima killed nobody despite being hit by an earthquake and a tidal wave the enemies of humanity have decided that freezing in the dark is not such a great option if it's going to apply to them. (MSN)

They weren't supposed to freeze in the dark. That's for those awful poors.
Natural gas in Europe is 10 times more expensive than it was a year ago, and the continent is now competing with Japan and other global buyers for supplies of liquified natural gas, driving up prices even more.
Despite being proven catastrophically wrong on every front, some of the self-anointed elites retain a stranglehold on their idiocy:
"There's no connection between building nuclear power plants and dealing with the price spike caused by the loss of Russian gas," since they take at least a decade to construct, said Tom Burke, the chairman of E3G, a London-based climate think tank. "Our policies have led us to utter disaster, so I see no reason to change now."

Tech News

AMD's Ryzen 7000 launch event is today. (WCCFTech)

Well, tomorrow for me. Today in the US. I don't know if I'll bother to watch it live.
One last leak for old time's sake: The Ryzen 7950X could peak at 5.85GHz. (Tom's Hardware)

That's 20% faster than the 5950X, plus a 10% performance boost from improvements to the CPU design. If accurate this should be quite a capable chip.
A new remote execution vulnerability has been found - for the GameBoy Colour. (TheXcellerator)

You do need the Mobile Adaptor GB - which wasn't sold outside of Japan - to be vulnerable, so you're probably safe from having your pokemons stolen while you sleep.
Why are D-sharp and E-flat considered two different notes? (Ethan Hein)

Because they are two different notes - or were, before pianos ruined everything.
