I thought pounds could be used for either mass or force, and in modern usage just saying "pounds" usually refers to mass. Wikipedia seems to agree:

Sea urchin is "uni", ~~the cat is actually called "Yuni".~~ It's just Google Translate translating it weirdly.

Edit: after looking it up, the cat is indeed actually called "Uni". It does say "Yuni" in this post though

Remember what "subscription" used to mean? in c/[email protected]

There is an advantage to the "new" model - when you subscribe, you retroactively get access to all past content as well.

Obviously for a newspaper or similar time-sensitive content this is not a very useful feature, but for other media/services it can be worth the trade-off of losing access after your subscription ends.
