    Totally agree
    Hence me saying I practically never use it
    In fact I do t think I’ve used it since that post either and it’s highly unlikely I will this year I’d think

    The news on BBC radio earlier declared that a third of children in the UK are living in poverty.

    Then followed it up with the tax shy **** who flew up quite high on a vanity project.


    It made me reflect on the absurdity of existence and the indifference of the rich and powerful.



    Mind you, most things do these days to be honest.

    I once went to a thing where the head of Amazon UK spoke

    Hated them even more after that which I suspect wasn’t the outcome they were after

    I used the search function and yours was the first post that gave an opening for my comment.

    Well aware that you said you hardly used Amazon <ok>

    It was the perfect mission': World's richest astronaut Jeff Bezos reveals masterplan to 'build a road to space' as he debriefs on his 10-minute, 66-mile-high trip that cost $550m per MINUTE (and thanks Amazon customers for financing it!)

    Just had an online chat session with Amazon support about something I bought last year which is now bust. Took about 20-25 minutes, satisfactory outcome (I'm getting a refund) but I still have no idea if I was talking to a human or some sort of AI thing.
    The conversation went back and forth a couple of times and included some technical detail but I still couldn't say if I was talking with a human or a bot. And I come from an IT background.

    An Australian activewear firm has been fined £2.6m (5m Australian dollars) for claiming its clothing "eliminated" and stopped the spread of Covid.


    Lorna Jane had advertised that its clothing used "a groundbreaking technology" called LJ Shield to prevent the "transferal of all pathogens".

    However, in a ruling, a judge said the company's claim was "exploitative, predatory and potentially dangerous".

    Lorna Jane said it accepted the court's ruling.

    The company maintained that it had been misled by its own supplier. "A trusted supplier sold us a product that did not perform as promised," said Lorna Jane chief executive Bill Clarkson.
