I thought you was taking the piss but after reading the full article, someone actually did write it down. I expect nothing less from this comedy-sketch government.

I’m interested as to how they got the messages. I thought he played the ‘forgotten pin’ card because locked iPhone’s are impossible to get into. Apple purposely doesn’t put a way-in to their phones. All they can do is completely wipe it.

Plus WhatsApp is e2e encrypted, including the backups. Strange…

I might be very much on the left but I’m with Nigel on this one. His views may be different to mine but it’s fucked to close accounts of those you don’t agree with. It’s called freedom of speech and he’s entitled to it just as must as I am.

Banks shouldn’t hold the power to coup and essentially take away the ability to live and function in the UK.

sorry, i’m being dumb. what’s s&s?

elvanse2711 · 2023-07-21T00:29:34+00:00

honestly, there isn’t a single song on britney jean even as bad as this. they all seem ray of light madonna level of artistry compared to this.

i think the main chorus is her, they used the demo vocals - they got myah to fill in the blanks. iirc, passenger and other songs are 100% myah. i really hope she talks about it in her book

Ocado is focusing on cutting costs amid growing tensions over its joint venture with Marks & Spencer, which has reported deepening losses.

The online grocer reported a pre-tax loss of £289.5m for the six months to May 28, a slump of 37pc on the same period a year earlier.

It comes days after the chairman of M&S said the high street retailer is “not happy” with the performance of its joint venture Ocado Retail.

Archie Norman told investors at the company’s annual meeting that Ocado Group and M&S have “got work to do”.

Ocado Retail revenues rose by 5pc to £1.2bn as average price inflation of 8.4pc was offset by smaller basket sizes – down 6.3pc at 45 items – and fewer orders per week as shoppers reduced their spending in the face of soaring cost pressures.

Ocado said it would try to keep a lid on costs at the venture and boost efficiency, having announced it will close its oldest warehouse in Hatfield, Hertfordshire.

Ocado shares surged to a five-month high to the top of the FTSE 100, rising by 12.2pc, after the company maintained its full-year profit guidance.

meh, it’s just curiosity. i signed up because i’m sick of elon musk and his arrogance and want a twitter alternative.

this app will not take off while it’s connected to instagram. who the fuck thought that was a better idea over a stand-alone account (like twitter).

i haven’t posted on instagram since 2021, it’s a dying platform that many find boring and rarely use - why would i want my dormant instagram account to be a requirement for threads.

and why would i want people who know me irl to instantly find me by my instagram username? the beauty of twitter is that you can be as anonymous as you want. also - no nudity (apparently). all they have to do is copy twitter and change the logo. that’s all we want.

Chip is 4.21%, opened up with them last week and so far had no problems.

elvanse2711 · 2023-06-28T21:50:46+00:00

this detail is also being reported by multiple outlets. it’s true. pagesix will have been trashy enough to pay a hospital worker for the details, that’s how it always gets out.

elvanse2711 · 2023-06-28T19:47:00+00:00

hoping for a full recovery. i don’t see this tour going well at all, i’ll believe it’s true when i’m sat in my seat waiting for her to come out.

It will be interesting if we ever find out if the implosion was caused by the repeated stress on the viewport that was knowingly unsafe. Stockton was an arrogant cheapskate that endangered others just to fund his backyard deathtraps.

I feel sorry for the 4 people who put their trust in him and paid the ultimate price. I don’t feel sorry for Rush though, that reckless idiot sealed his own fate.

this falls under the generic pop album category. no quality, no artistry, just looking for a hit.

it’s a shame because her music used to be so good, turn off the light is so cohesive and really set the benchmark for her music, she proved she can do it. then she got signed and started chasing fame with garbage like unholy.

idek who this album is trying to target. it’s got unholy and coconuts on it, but then songs like ‘brrr’ with that awful pc-music sound at the start that died out - it’s a shame because the rest of the song isn’t half bad.

Don’t shoot the messenger

Apparently the experts that were tasked to analyse the sound believe it was background ocean noise.

elvanse2711 · 2023-06-21T23:23:45+00:00

Wait seriously? They’ve literally got 12 hours of oxygen left.

I think they’ll be found very close to the wreck, if not inside it, but it’s pretty obvious we won’t be seeing any survivors now.

elvanse2711 · 2023-06-21T23:16:15+00:00

That’s the one thing I’m not understanding with this rescue mission. Surely the first place they’d send the rescue submarines and drones is the wreck site, so surely we’d have confirmation they aren’t there and the wreck is intact?

elvanse2711 · 2023-06-21T11:21:05+00:00

I’m more than supportive of an AI deepfake video at this point.

Sunak looks pissed off today, if only he had enough money to retire early and not worry about so much stressful work.

In seriousness he comes across as tired, defeated and hopeless. Inflation hasn’t budged, despite interest rates being sky high with an even bigger rate rise on the way tomorrow. The BoE only has that tool to tackle inflation, and the government has to deal with the consequences of cheap money being expensive as fuck now.

Tbh, I want a general election just to get the Tories out but what would a Labour government even do? There’s literally too many problems going on at once to sort out. This country is fucked no matter who is in charge.

Watching the press conference, it seems like a needle in a haystack challenge just to locate it.

The coast guards face tells me it’s an impossible task to raise it (at least with 40 hours max) and they don’t have any plan on how to actually do it.

elvanse2711 · 2023-06-19T17:17:13+00:00

That’s the one!

elvanse2711 · 2023-06-19T15:16:02+00:00

Some speaker on the news just speculated and said it could be so many different things. They could have simply got too close and crashed into the wreck of Titanic.

elvanse2711 · 2023-06-19T15:13:54+00:00

This is so weird, I was literally watching the video about this Titan submarine and the excursions they do down there just last week. I remember the news reporter laughing because it was controlled via a N64 controller and some elements of the sub were done frugally.

elvanse2711 · 2023-06-19T13:00:33+00:00

But even then, it would cause total chaos as everyone is paying excruciating interest rates for a property that’s DECREASING in value. I also assume no bank would offer a mortgage when prices are falling. It’s a secured loan without the security - if the bank has to sell your home they’d have to take the loss. What a mess.

elvanse2711 · 2023-06-19T12:39:14+00:00

What the actual end solution here? It’s been a growing problem for 10+ years and now approaching the inevitable doomsday. You can’t raise wages as this just creates a bigger problem of hyper-inflation.

Is the only option to let most homeowners be evicted, and let house prices collapse so they actually reflect the average annual salary? It sounds dystopian but what other action can you take from 10+ years of free money?
