And they wonder why people are turning their backs on them. Public services are crumbling, people are suffering, but they can find huge sums to spend on things no one wants and will arguably make our lives harder. 500mil on crap like this, and god knows how much on Palantir, ID cards, etc.

Well if water is our natural habitat, throw him in the sea!
could @lucympowell.bsky.social, @darrenpjones.bsky.social, @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social, @stellacreasy.bsky.social, @labourlewis.bsky.social and so on please explain this?
id also like to know why every other country that conducts these 'reviews' comes to the complete opposite conclusions as wes?
Good. Labour deserves everything they get.
"when I want you I expect you to be available"... ๐คฎ Absolutely disgusting. She's better off without him.
The House of Lords Digital & Communications Committee just published their report on AI, copyright & the creative industries, and their conclusions could not be clearer.

The trailer was awful. Shame, I seem to remember enjoying the first movie many years ago.
Same, I consistently don't get any time to react, as soon as I start getting shot at I'm already down. I like to think my reaction times are ok and I don't expect to be winning 100% of the time, but I am failing 100% of the time and that's just not fun. ๐
Same ๐คฃ. It's brutal and I just can't seem to figure it out, not gonna spend lots of money on a game I keep dying on ๐คฃ.
It's not just the lurch to the right, the trust is now broken as well, they say one thing to get elected then do something else entirely. I'm done with the same old politicians making promises they don't intend to keep, playing games with our lives. It's time for fresh blood.
The question is will they actually do anything about it... Unlikely.
My fingers are crossed hoping they burn through all their money and the bubble bursts, before the data centres burn through the atmosphere and kills us all.
Like who watches black mirror and thinks "that's a great idea". ๐ This is very disturbing but the thing is, I think some people in grief will want this as disturbing as it is.
I'm amazed at how clueless or in denial they seem to be about the electoral disaster ahead of them, and the consequences of that. I think it was the latest episode of Pod Save the UK talked about McSweeney and how Kier got in and why they lurched to the right, and it was quite illuminating.
Wow that's insane.
I hate living here, yet again someone is terrorised at their home for no reason. I hope the teacher is ok.
I know, it's horrific ๐.
I completely agree, it's not funny it's extremely disrespectful.
Easy, play it again! ๐ I love this game so much!
These are really interesting. I quite like number 3!
As much as it might hurt us, we can't give in to bullies. He'll just keep taking.
๐คฃ๐คฃ I wish you could mute it!
It's what Trump wants. He wants the conflict so he can crack down harder.
Thinking I'm going to stop using Google services, does anyone have any experiences of using Proton? Or suggestions for non AI, privacy minded email, cloud drive, etc.
Exactly this. 'Lifelong' Labour supporters need to realise the party they voted for isn't Labour anymore. The change they hoped for will only be possible with a new party and at this time, the Greens are it.
The world has gone mad. And it's the ones at the top who have lost it the most.
I wish I could go back to the days where I wasn't engaged or interested in politics. Ignorance was bliss. Now I'm just so angry all the time because of things I'm aware of but cannot control.
I'm frightened about where things are headed. It's absolutely insane that governments are pushing for stuff like this, blinded to the consequences.
I feel like the way things are going, we're going to need to start remembering how to share ideas, find and support each other, and mobilise action the way we used to before mobile phones and computers, before they become outright surveillance tools. We are about to step into very dystopian times.
I think we need to start planning now how we live in a closed internet. Or around a closed internet. There has to be ways we can communicate in this upcoming hostile environment.
