@Fizzle_Up I'm really not a fan (of Verstappen).

I get that he's a talented driver (very talented) but he's (yet another) man-child in a fast car.

Sigh.

Google injects links into your website - if you don't refuse. This is happening on iOS Google App.

"Go-op, which is based in Somerset, will be owned and managed by staff and the local community, with all profits invested back into improving the service."

A train service using profits to improve the service. What a zany idea!?

When an article says "some scientists think" then remember this: I, a scientist, once thought I could fit a whole orange in my mouth. I could, it turns out, get it in there, but I hadn't given sufficient thought to the reverse operation. 🧡

Heads-up for news publishers in the EU. Um, this should be interesting... -> Google to run a test where they don't show results from EU-based news publishers in Google News, Search, and Discover.

@MikeBlazer @ilovechoclates_ Mike and Simon have covered the key points for me.

Only things I'd add:

1. How you do it matters
2. Beware unintended consequences

On 1: If you block on IPs, if people *really* want to get to the site, it's not that hard.

On 2: If your biggest client/customer happens to be on a trip to {country} and cannot login, what then?

Here we go! The November 2024 broad core update is rolling out. There's been a ton of volatility since the August core update completed. Let's see what Google has in store for us. Stay tuned. I'll probably share my "Core Update Notes" each day based on what I'm seeing in the SERPs.

Independent journalism is getting my money and attention from here on out. @ProPublica, The Guardian, and @404mediaco are just a few that I am paying for and will rely on to remain informed. I highly recommend you consider doing something similar because we need these organizations and independent journalists more than ever.

Answer options:

1. No, it is not related to weekend plans

2. It is for both weekend and weekday

3. Yes, both for this and the future weekends

4. Yes, it is for future weekends

5. Yes, it is purely for this weekend

@ilovechoclates_ Oh, that's hard for your Dad.

That feels like a good answer though: if you do ever *need* it, you can consider your options then πŸ‘

@ilovechoclates_ Does it have an 'expiry'? Like, if you don't pay for it now, does it run out ever?

Maybe you could 'release' your degree later in your life when you can afford it?

@ilovechoclates_ Gotta love those backlinks!

(genuinely, it's nice that a journalist actually credits their sources properly in this way).
