I had my phone taking photos in HEIC for a couple months. i ended up switching back to .JPG because both signal and whatsapp stuggled with it

and convince the Republicans to finally impeach his ass.

Haha, good one.

let’s hope the dems get the house and a supermajority in the senate in the midterms (they won’t)

Russia have demonstrated the ability to carry out chemical weapons attacks on mainland UK soil.

if a full on exchange we would be out of air defence ammunition very quickly.

the british military slashed budgets considerably after 2008. we’ve maintained special forces and we decomissioned our last carrier before its replacement was ready. we’re back up to 2 carriers now but dont have enough planes to put on them.

we have virtually no stockpiles of artillery and our land forces are small.

braindead take of the type that will lose us the next election (if there is one)

just as well, i always struggled with it.

And my teachers at school used to say “You wont always have a calculator on you”

Look at me now, i spend 7.5 hours a day paid to sit in front of an expensive calculator with two other expensive calculators in my pocket. after which i spend several hours on my own personal expensive calculator before going to bed and doom scrolling on one of the aforementioned… expensive calculators.

Anything more than the most basic mental arithmetic at school was a waste of time that would have been better spent teaching me how to code. would have saved me teaching myself a few years later after working a soul crushing call centre job for 4 years (in which i used a not very expensive and dog shit slow calculator)

Can you count backwards by 7s

counting backwards in multiples of 7? i’d struggle with that and i consider myself at least average

it isn’t. In the UK where i am all your taxes are deducted from your salary before you’re paid. if you overpay you get an automatic rebate at the end of the year. if you’re in normal employment you should never have to speak to HMRC, your companies HR do it on your behalf in the rare event something comes up

you cant sell/buy a tool but i wonder if you can hire a contractor to build you one.

Theres quite a lot of humans on this planet. collectively we are capable of performing more than a single task y’know.

I’m not a climate scientist, but i am a programmer. i’d be much more useful on this sort of thing than trying to program my way out of climate change

What does North Korea get out of this?

goodwill from an arms exporter. money, food, other aid. actual military experience for their armed forces.

honestly can’t fault him for it.

Maybe the ruskie cunts shouldnt have been conducting chemical weapons attacks on UK soil.

Musk did seem to lurch to the right after his meeting with Putler

ClimateTown did a good video on this

My gripe is that i was on an ad free tier. They just changed it so that the tier that was previously add free now had ads.

If they had added an ad free tier below my tier i would probably still be a subscriber.

“you watch ads now, pay more or fuck off” didnt sit well with me so i fucked off

Libre office writer is a thing

That sounds about 25 mins longer than i’m willing to call a standup.

if it’s not wrapped up within 10 mins of the scheduled start time something has gone horribly wrong

WFH was a £6.6k tax free bonus a year for me.

I hope it never ends
