GassyHaggis I couldn’t get my head around that until they mentioned transitioning to health and wellbeing company. Kinda makes sense but why wait? Otherwise it is hypocritical.
Jonbwfc This is amazing - a thread that starts off talking about Brexit then veers off into how beer production affects the London Underground, and the measures the British government took to ensure the U.K. was kept supplied with tea during WWII. And how in the process the British government was effectively given distribution control of all the tea in the world, literally. It’s the kind of bonkers history we need to hear more about.

BritishBean Jonbwfc Boris paying the American company 10s of millions of pounds to reopen two factories did the trick then…
BritishBean MadAndy any spare to also stun those morally vacant crunts filling up their car and 5 jerry cans at petrol stations?
Gammerz BritishBean Thought they were already stunned. Been sniffing too much CO2. Boris is spreading fake news, that the fuel crisis is starting to ease, in the hope that it’ll all calm down.

DrDamn So the big Facebook/WhatsApp/Instagram outage yesterday, found this explanation of what actually went wrong and why it took so long to fix and it’s hilarious 😆
Jonbwfc BritishBean unlikely to be easy to change in anything like a reasonable timescale, given the size of the operation. Even with their finances, because there just aren’t that many people around who really understand stuff like BGP.
Alex They say all software comes to represent the organisation that created it. So I guess the Facebook org is a big tangled mess ready to collapse at any second. 🤣
MadAndy Gammerz Thing that blows my mind here is the reaction of the police. I fully concede there is nothing they can do on the day itself - it appears the purchaser has fully acted in good faith and with no negative actions on their part. But to say this is not a fraud?, WTF
Jonbwfc Yeah, which part of “I did not sell my house and make myself intentionally homeless” did they not get?
Gammerz DrDamn But the house hasn’t actually been taken (moved).., only broken into (compare with breaking into a car vs stealing a car). If the police cannot investigate the loss of your most expensive possession, why even bother with less expensive items?
