One of my interests is aircraft tracking. I use two trackers: flightradar24(add .com on the end) and https://globe.adsbexchange.com/ There is much information available on these. Clicking an aircraft will show its track, type and flight details. You can zoom and move maps. Clicking the U top right in ads will show military aircraft. The photo below shows how many flights there are currently over the UK and near Europe. -

I used to work in a company that supplied cocoa, and we received samples that were then graded. One of the results was how 'wormy' it was. Chocolate can contain insect parts, so, if this doesn't bother you, why not treat yourself to some ant chocolate from Harrods😁: https://www.harrods.com/en-sa/p/toak-alchemy-amazonian-ants-dark-chocolate-bars-56g-000000000007309136?srsltid=AfmBOopWT6vLYKRIpS5FNNA5QWdw9pjG0Q4RFZSYXz514uR8xFTL5kh4 -

Someone was asking when Kahuti closed down. It was at the end of June 2019: here is their goodbye: 'It's time to turn the lights out. It's been a crazy ride. There have been a lot of ups and downs along the way but we've decided that because we don't have the resources or time necessary to properly manage the site and members, it's best to close Kahuti down. We will be shutting Kahuti down at the end of June and encourage members to use the remaining time to exchange contact information and migrate groups and communities to other websites before the cut-off date.' All the best.' -

The Dark Web may be known for drug dealers and other nasty activities, but it is also the home to the BBC, Facebook, CIA and whistle blowers. It enables people all over the world to access information that they may be blocked from seeing on the ordinary web. This requires a special browser called Tor which uses special addresses that do not work in ordinary browsers. Below is the BBC website in Chinese, and this is the address: https://www.bbcweb3hytmzhn5d532owbu6oqadra5z3ar726vq5kgwwn6aucdccrad.onion/zhongwen/simp -

We went to see a test run of the Vulcan bomber yesterday at Southend Airport. The airport car park fence is right next to the taxi way. If you look towards the end of the video, you can see it pass by very close. If you go to 2 hrs, you can see the test run. https://www.facebook.com/events/1416420046345491/?acontext=%7B%22event_action_history%22%3A[%7B%22mechanism%22%3A%22attachment%22%2C%22surface%22%3A%22newsfeed%22%7D]%2C%22ref_notif_type%22%3Anull%7D -

I am being asked if members of a loop can appoint a new moderator. This can only be done by an existing moderator, or, if they are no longer around, by Scooploop (Not possible at the moment). The disappearance of a moderator can cause a loop to no longer be active, due to the settings that the absent moderator has made. -
