You have to wonder what the point is of ๐ฆ๐๐ฝ๐ฝ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ ๐ง๐ถ๐ฐ๐ธ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฆ๐๐๐๐ฒ๐บ๐ when other members of staff start emailing you: "Have you seen the ticket Dave created?"
Everyone is complaining about Matt Hancock breaking social distancing rules, yet everyone is trying to get to Wimbledon or a football match. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Intrigued to know how many people asked their Google assistant, "What day is it today?" I'll hold my hand up and admit I asked my Google mini this morning.
That moment having said repeatedly for years, "Do not quote me for items that you do not have in stock!" and yet they go straight ahead and quote you for equipment they do not have in stock! ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Hands up all those who remember people walking around shouting at the top of their voice into their mobile phone? Not because the recipient couldn't hear but to ensure you looked and saw they had a mobile phone. Encryption is pretty much the same. 90% of the population doesn't need it, but if you want to look like Billy-Big-Bollocks, you let everyone know you use it.
Not in Merry England. We all leave our doors open. You'd be amazed how many people leave their car unlocked, their burglar alarm off. In most peoples minds, just having locks is enough.
Thursday was always the busiest day at the opticians where the wife used to work, so we always went out for a meal and a pint or two on Thursday night. :)
Free OpenSuSE Tee Shirt, anybody? robbinespu.gitlab.io/blog/2021โฆ I suspect it would be honourable if you actually attended. I'm not sure saying: "I was there virtually." is a tad naughty.
A couple of months ago, I told the window cleaner to come every other month rather than every month. He actually got his arse in hand with me.
He was due yesterday but didn't show up (Talk about immature), so we got a new old school one yesterday. A man with a bucket and a ladder rather than the other twat and his hosepipe pole and his "I don't need to dry them I put a chemical in the wash. WTF?
I've been watching Undercover on Netflix. It's a Belgian-Dutch crime drama about undercover cops. I started out liking Bob Lemmens, the main character, but now I kind of wanna see him get his comeuppance tbh. Thoroughly enjoying it, though.
That's a point. If you fill out a car insurance request on GoCompare, for example, it will ask you how many days a week you drive? For the last year, my car has hardly moved off the drive! So that's a tough one to answer truthfully.
yeas, my 2017 Prius PHEV has only just passed the 30K mark, and for 18 months of the llast 4 years it was my company car, doing a minimum of 250 miles a week. I used to do more than 30K a year at one time.
@stannard I've just looked at your Bio. You want to eat Nigella Lawson? She'd probably want to snort coke off your bum if you believe what the papers say.
It always makes me smile that everyone in the FOSS community thinks that the world at large (Which is a billion times bigger than the FOSS community) thinks the same as them in terms of security when in reality, Joe Public couldn't give a toss. Millions of devices are out there with no AVโmillions of people using their DOB as a password. My Missus uses passwords that would make you cry! And as for sharing data.......
I wondered how long it would take insurance companies to implement Lie Detection. Thank The Pond Gods; this lot have dropped the idea. theregister.com/2021/05/26/ai_โฆ
Is it just me that finds it ironic that people on Twitter et al. are posting messages saying, "I don't have any money to buy in the dip" So let me get this right, You've no money yet you want to invest in #crypto, which is currently haemorrhaging money, and you're hoping someone will flip you a few quid with your "Get Rich Quick sฬถcฬถhฬถeฬถmฬถeฬถ gamble."
Even though it says in black & white what you will need, I bet people still buy it without a POE router or switch in their home.๐คฆโโ๏ธ thepihut.com/products/raspberrโฆ #raspberrypi #poe

Funny how he reckons that incompetence was behind the failures in the Pandemic response. I am wrong, or wasn't he Boris's chief adviser at the time? So this is basically a confession?
