Users of X, or Twitter, as it was previously called, can no longer see what accounts have "liked" or hit the heart icon on a post by another user. The X engineering team announced the move on the platform, telling fellow users it was needed to "better protect your privacy." X does not plan to do away with likes, however. "Like count and other metrics for your own posts will still show up under notifications," the engineers said. The main change is that users "will no longer see who liked someone else’s post," according to the engineers' post, which has been viewed over 226 million times and re...

Fiat has revealed its new Grande Panda which will arrive in either hybrid or electric format and will be less than four metres long. The Panda has been one of the most successful models in Fiat’s history, falling just behind the car it shared its chassis with — the 500.

At the front, there’s a gloss black front grille and a skid plate at the lower central part of the bumper while the headlamps are made up of opal-coloured cubes. The side profile incorporates grey plastic...

If you find yourself preparing to give a speech at a wedding this summer, then keep it brief, is the advice of experts far and wide. Don't worry if it feels a bit counter-intuitive. Your brevity will be appreciated. "Shortness is sweetness," says Sarah Kiehl, who heads the Association of German Wedding Planners. "The biggest mistake you can make is to try and include as much input as possible." She says keep it to five to seven minutes as a rule of thumb. But, her advice is: "Ideally, it should even be just three." In any case, make sure you practise at home beforehand, so you can speak as fre...

Being socially isolated is associated with a higher risk of developing dementia, new research suggests.

Social isolation is measured by the behaviour, by how isolated from other people a person is, whereas loneliness is a subjective, self-reported measure, meaning someone may have lots of connections but still feel lonely. Using data from the UK Biobank study, re...
