  1. Hey! It's time for another #Crosshare puzzle!
    Today's 5x5 is "Bad Mother Shucker Oyster Stout"
    (Hah! More letters in the title than there are in the puzzle!)

  2. @roomaroo @Edent On #Eurostar, you just head to the on-board cafe. They sell both the #Paris cardboard #Navigo preloaded with 2 metro trips at cost plus about €2 fee, and #London plastic Visitor #Oyster cards at what seems to be a usual high fee of £10.50. They really should put this on the announcements more clearly but I wonder if they couldn't cope with how many people would want to avoid the awful ticket offices in both cities!

  3. @edavies @theolodian @Edent well, the 5yo would travel free with an adult in #London on buses, trams, tube, DLR, overground, Elizabeth Line and some rail services. The 12yo can get a Zip Oyster if you buy ahead, or an Oyster smartcard with "Young Visitor" discount set for two weeks at a time, but it's often a pain in the neck to visit one of the 16 stations with a #TfL office or centre to set it, and it takes a while to outweigh the £10 charge for a new #Oyster card. It really should be simpler.

    How do #animals #aggregate?#Mites can find each other based on #pheromones, while #sight is important for herd-forming #mammals. In #marine #habitats, #hearing plays a major role. D.McAfee et al.(2022) showed that #oyster #larvae react to the #soundscape of a healthy #reef via #statocysts in front of their bodies, thus finding their adult conspecifics for #reefformation. Reef formation can be artificially #stimulated via artificial #soundwaves.

  5. "The event is also a kind of contest, complete with a WrestleMania-style gold belt for the elected official who eats the most oysters. Delegate Mike Webert made the belt after his first win four years ago and he’s carried with that honor the chance to announce the new winner even since" #oyster #SaveTheBay #VAPol wvtf.org/news/2026-02-18/oyste

  6. Fake Microsoft Teams and Google Meet downloads are being used to spread the #Oyster backdoor malware instead of the real apps via poisoned search results and malicious ads.
