You do realise there was a temporary VT outage when you posted this. Too momentous for the server I think.

I wonder if he'll hide in a fridge?

I used to work doing QA in a frozen veg packing (KW) factory. Quality-wise: 1) M&S 2) Sainsbury's/Tesco - identical input, different bags. 3) Morrison's 197) Mixed veg from anyone 198) Farm Foods Can't comment on anything else. Oh, except that frozen peas/broad beans are the freshest you'll ever get and are awesome. Everything else loses its texture, so spinach is fine as it loses texture when you cook it anyway. Chips mostly OK too. Anything else will probably taste good, but have a squishier texture compared to fresh. In short, never buy fresh peas or broad beans.

On the other hand, Trump had dinner with Duda (Polish Prez) the other day; they get on quite well. Now notice Trump's lack of comment on the aid bill?

There's less data involved, with gaming it's tiny amounts, just a few bytes per second, like key presses and mouse/joystick movements, then the computer/console at their end works out what it looks like on screen, and how it behaves. With TV you're sending the whole video, which is megabytes per second, i.e. one million times as much data. Therefore, laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaag!

I had a thing where Swiftkey used to capitalise the word 'internet' every time. It irritated me so much that I sent a bug report; they actually got back to me and looked into it. They were baffled. Never got to the bottom of it. Have since binned Swiftkey as the swiping experience just got worse and worse and became unusable over time. Now using Gboard. OK I guess.

Got a link? I'm sceptical of this.

So after the initial referral in August 2021, I had my ADHD assessment today, and that was after using the NHS "Right to Choose" pathway. Still don't have any appointment from the original referral, although 'it might be this summer' Anyway. it turns out I was right. I have moderate to severe inattentive ADHD. Now to see if medication helps...

It's The Americans. They Have To Capitalize Every Word In A Headline. We Brits only capitalise the Important Words. And don't get me started on the zeds.

Strong agree. He's done some good stuff in the past, but this is generic rent a tune crap.

Are you Brad Pitt?

Sitting on a bus in Dalston (London. Hackney) on my way home. Sitting next to three very glum blokes wearing red and white.

I did. I reckon they delivered it after I'd gone to bed. Didn't hear a thing.

Best one I had was during the first lockdown, when I was doing the rounds of all the delivery options. Asda were due at 10pm. At 1030pm it was marked as delivered. I thought maybe the driver was outside unloading, but no. Nowhere to be seen. Tried to call to find out what was going on, but the helpline was closed. Multiple calls to their outsourced help centre over the next 36 hours where they insisted it had been delivered. 2 days later I leave the flat for the first time to find it had been left on my doorstep. Groceries. For 2 days. Delivery driver hadn't even knocked. Multiple long calls back and forth to their contact centre resulted in them doubling down to say it had been delivered and they wouldn't talk to me any more. I got in touch via Twitter, which is run from the UK head office. 10 mins later I had a full refund and apology. Absolute wankspanners.

For my part, I use Ocado. They price match brands, so it's not as expensive as perception, but the main reason is it's easy to get refunds, especially for short dated stuff. Go into your receipt on the website, two or three clicks and it's done. Never had them argue the toss once.
