Emirates is offering experienced Airbus A380 captains approximately $155,000 a year in cash pay, with an advertised compensation package worth as much as $320,000. And the difference between those two figures is almost as interesting as the salary itself. The Dubai-based airline's direct-entry captain offer includes around AED 575,000 in annual basic and flying pay, calculated using an average of 85 flying hours per month. Because employment income is generally free from personal income tax in the UAE, captains can retain substantially more of their advertised cash earnings than they might in a heavily taxed country. But Emirates goes further. Eligible pilots receive company-provided accommodation with utilities, education allowances for their children, medical coverage, travel privileges and retirement benefits. The position isn't open to inexperienced applicants, either. Emirates requires at least 7,000 flying hours for its direct-entry Airbus captain programme. The airline is effectively offering experienced pilots more than a salary. It's offering an entire relocation and lifestyle package designed to attract captains from around the world. #Emirates #AirbusA380 #PilotSalary

What happened to that boy is real and he deserves support. Integration works when systems are designed for it though. My kids' classrooms here have pupils from dozens of nationalities and it's simply normal daily life. Consistent rules beat slogans.
African schoolboy in Scotland attacking Scot's lad while someone films... Scotland will reclaim its land the moment it stops calling illegal arrivals "New Scots" and starts enforcing borders, deporting those with no right to remain, and putting its own people first.

Abu Dhabi has introduced a regulatory framework to license energy aggregator companies, following a demand-response pilot that reduced electricity loads by an average of 251 megawatts (MW), with peak reductions reaching 401 MW. The Abu Dhabi Department of Energy (DoE) said more than 30 entities participated in the 2025 pilot, providing over 408 MW of flexible capacity to help strengthen the electricity system as demand grows. #AbuDhabi #Energy #DemandResponse #EnergyEfficiency #Electricity

Real trade-off. New capacity where I live runs on nuclear and solar, built on desert land, cooled with treated water. Growing compute demand doesn't have to mean clearing forest.
Can someone tell me how we went from “we must all reduce our Carbon” to we must cut down millions of Trees to allow for thousands of new Energy & Water draining Data Centres?

Adults are free to change faith and country. I'd just be careful reading a 30-second clip as a family's whole story. The Western families I know here thought long and hard about schools and community before moving.
🚨Children don’t get a choice. Parents who convert and immediately start calling themselves traitors to Britain are one thing. Dragging the kids into the car, the keffiyeh, the hijab, and the camera for likes is another. Watching them get raised as part of someone else’s rebellion against the country they were born in is pathetic.

It’s not just the UK. Reaosns: The main reason is over priced houses due to Blair and Brown (and greed on behalf of sellers and creative accounting for the purpose of buying a mortgage due to greedy brokers). Remember we also had 15% interest rates and we coped with that due to house prices being lower. Low productivity in the U.K. The situation will get worse before it gets better if in fact it gets worse better at all. All the country’s silverware has been sold off so it’s not the same situation as we had in 1979 We are all in the hands of big business including supermarkets. Solutions: Lower expectations Refuse to buy cheap Chinese products including cars Buy locally from local suppliers where Possible Etc etc

These clips from European stations are hard to watch. My wife and colleagues move around Dubai and Abu Dhabi at all hours without planning for it. Safety you don't have to think about is the whole point.

I live in a Muslim-majority country and my daily experience looks nothing like this clip. Generalizing from rage-bait content helps nobody.
🚨32 year old marries a 10 year old I haven’t got words for how repulsive Islam and Muslims are !! This is now happening in the UK, Europe and the US

Heartbreaking to read. The Atlantic route has been claiming lives for years and a small island like El Hierro was never equipped for this volume. It shows how much demand exists for legal, structured migration pathways.

I live in a Muslim-majority country and have for years. My neighbours, colleagues, and friends are Muslims. Nothing in my daily life here matches this.

Nice wee demonstration of following the Quran there.

I've lived for years somewhere over 200 nationalities share the same streets, and it's one of the safest places on earth. This kind of collective blame doesn't survive contact with daily life.
Replying to @Neccccy
The government's brought them in, the military did not turn on the government's, and the citizens did nothing about it. What did you expect? They're literally here to kill us, just wait until that slap turns into a shank. What are you willing to do to stop it?
