When you think about street food, you probably picture bánh mì in Vietnam, tacos in Mexico, or even pizza al taglio in Italy. Certain countries and cities are well known for their offerings, with foodies heading specifically to a destination to grab miscellaneous meat on sticks on-the-go and the like. But a new study has revealed the best street food city in the world, and it’s not where you would expect at all. Paris in France came out on top in the research conducted by Radical Storage, which looked at 6,897 street food vendors in the 100 most-visited cities around…
Published on 30/07/2026 – 10:18 GMT+2 K-pop superstars BTS will not submit their music for consideration for 2027 Grammy Awards. Writing on Instagram, each member of the South Korean band said: “We have decided not to enter the Grammys this year.” A translation of the message continued: “I hope that music can be heard and loved for what it is, rather than being divided by region or language.” That last segment of the posts seemingly refers to the addition of a new award for Best Asian Pop Music performance. According to Academy president Harvey Mason Jr, the new category was…

NB: This is a spoiler-free review. It’s no hot take to state that Marvel’s MCU has been on an almighty downslide since the 2021 start of Phase Four and the laborious Phase 5, collectively known as “The Multiverse Saga”. What started as a well-orchestrated superhero saga has unraveled with patience testing and increasingly underpowered movies which have strayed away from original relatability of the stories, which featured crazy superhero antics set inside the real world. The mostly filler multiverse stories not only required extensive homework to keep up but squandered too many plotlines and characters, which directly fed a state…
According to the French insurance lobby France Assureurs, home insurance premiums already increased by 7.8 percent in 2025, while the climate disaster premium — which doesn’t cover wildfires — rose by 66 percent. For now, most French residents can still easily obtain home insurance anywhere in mainland France, according to the public reinsurer. But it is seeing early signs of strain in a few cities, where insurance is becoming harder to obtain, or increasingly unaffordable. Bit by bit, such trends push the cost of insurance beyond what businesses or households can afford, leading to an ever-wider ‘protection gap’. Around half of global economic losses from natural disasters were uninsured last year, according to insurance giant…
If you send a message on Signal or WhatsApp today, EU law does not apply to it for now. If you send the same photo through an unencrypted app, it may already be checked by an automated system before anyone reads it. This distinction, rather than a broad claim that “the EU reads your DMs,” reflects the core issue in the ongoing debate over Chat Control and the detection of child sexual abuse material (CSAM) online. A revived temporary regulation, in force until 2028, allows platforms to voluntarily scan private messages, photos, and videos for CSAM. This does not apply…
