What's happening on #BBCNews? Farage being given a good shoeing at last. And really not handling it well.

#Below #Netflix - dreadful, illogical, awful, rubbish. Hard to believe something this bad was commissioned, let alone made and released. A creature feature with very little creature, and less sense.

Exciting times at the BBC for Chelsea, who managed to score some time after the final whistle.

It's basically just an extra hour to listen to things falling off the house this year.

And Palmer should have gone for the first challenge.

Bugger me. A victory, and Tel played okay. Marmoush not so much. Let's hope Madders is okay. #CHETOT #COYS #Football

I'd have taken Jackson, Barry, or even that guy up front for Viking FK. #COYS #Football #AVLMCI

Looks like we dodged a bullet, by letting Lankshear go.....

Nobody really talks about the biggest issue facing us today - that the sticky tag used to keep loaves of bread rarely has the non-sticky bits in the correct position and it's tricky to open the bag the first time. #BrokenBritain

It's beyond ridiculous that a criminal president, and a tech billionaire have blanket control over these systems. How did the US let this happen? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I'll store up 9 litres of water, and replace it every week, so that'll be an extra 450 litres of water required, per person, in the UK, annually. Seems right.

My improved server security has blocked me for the next 3 hours. Well, at least the new measures work :/

It's always fun to watch #BBCNews mangle any information held in stories regarding IT.

I've never been a fan of Ubuntu-Pro/One as it seemed foisted upon us, but fair play - just signed up as my old 20.04 server was running PHP7.4 and connected to the account; ran ESM upgrades for 200+ packages, and it all just worked. Not that I use PHP. Bleh.

Villa have lost Martinez, Konza, Tielemans, Rogers, and Watkins from last season, yet still look a more than decent side. #Football #AVLFKV Viking are decent too, but not in the CL.

This appears to be doing the rounds again. Apparently the Conservatives are “introducing legislation” that will impact fewer than 10 households and will actually INCREASE benefits to those households. But y’know - culture wars are waaaaay more important 😂 bsky.app/profile/monk...

They default this to 'on' ... surely we need legislation, like with contact for sales calls, etc. which requires "opt in" rather than having to act to opt out!

eBay users! Don't ignore today's email, even though it looks like a boring standard update to the User Privacy Notice. They want to use your data to train AI models. If you click the link over the words "the right to object", it takes you to a page with a toggle button letting you opt out.

Trump *himself* filed a financial disclosure form this year that asserted he made over a billion dollars last year. That's not a claim from the fake news, or the crazy liberals. That is Trump's own filing.
