If I'm providing a warranty on the refit of a cheap, broken, part, then I need to charge 2x parts, 2x round trips, then some margin for admin, before I'm making any profit at all.

And if it broke before, why wouldn't it break again?

The Prime Minister doesn't understand his job.

A government on autopilot into oblivion.

Me neither, but I understand Iran is attacking Bluesky again for, reasons

So May's long run traumatised it and made it even worse than before

a computer can never be held accountable therefore *all management decisions must be made with computers*

leaked software industry training manual (2026)

I wasn't a fan of their coffee

The Australian magpie is doubly fictional

Lib Dems on the up?

The only shares upsides I see in the "down" scenario are

- consolidate/boost market power (bad for public)
- greater than pass-through inflation (bad for public, based on having power already)

Some scope for all 3, but can't see how even in combination they outweigh falls

Each gift link works a fixed number of times, typically a few hundred

It's also war every weekend, peace every Monday morning (US time)

This is definitely going into your performance review

I didn't keep a copy of that "is anything as disproved as blowback" (paraphrased) tweet from early March

Easy mistake, it's 5.1 (round up)

Your article will need a para or two to dismiss the counter thesis that late 30s then people looked like early 50s people now

You've seen how we vote. Are they wrong?

13% of daily amount, not of contents
