@coldclimate Shit. Sorry mate I’ve not been check here much. 🤦🏼‍♂️ You going to that? Are there still tickets?

Ahhh excellent, email from OVO Energy stating my bill is going up AGAIN, essentially cos Ofgem are utterly impotent. Rip-off Britain!

ars technica: we don't know how they did it but google chrome now extracts a pint of blood every time you log on

chrome user, dizzy from blood loss: I swear to god I am like this close to switching to firefox

another chrome user, on the verge of fainting from severe blood loss: no need to resort to that, just switch to [insert today's trendy chrome fork here] and be smart like meeee

I love it so much!

Firefox has made it SO EASY to switch to Firefox from Chrome, that you dont even lose your OPEN TABS.

Have you got 34 open tabs lol? And you lost uBlock ad-blocker today? (You did, you lost your ad blocker, because Google)

You dont even lose open Tabs! (And you get to install uBlock)

Fancy that.

So that's that: Firefox is now the only useful browser in the world.

Meanwhile, Google controls nearly the entire web browser market, far more than Microsoft ever did at the height of the original browser wars.

Using Chromium based products makes you less safe.

@coldclimate Ha, when I get an invite. I have a new motor I suspect you’ll quite like too, nope it’s not an MX5.

@jtruk Yeah, I’ve heard there is something in town today, the one day I happen to be heading through for a couple beers too. 🤦🏼‍♂️

You can also...switch browsers and keep using #uBlock Origin despite what #Google wants you to think.

The 'other' extensions they speak of will only continue to work because they opted to voluntarily diminish their capabilities.

Such extensions do not work in your interest.

@[email protected] Never heard of it. Closest looking thing I’ve seen in UK is Bombay mix.

To go with this awesome summer we're (UK) having I'm sure I'm feeling the very early signs of flu-like symptoms ffs.

Haha, been having issues with a DPD delivery over the past couple days. Tried their in app chat and it get repeating the same crap. I asked if it was AI and to stop repeating and all I got was 'something went wrong'. 😂

Got another person calling me LOTS then a text saying "Who is this" so it would seem that scammers totally are now spoofing my number. Very annoying, it's one thing getting spam/scam calls and just blocking them but now I have legit people pinging me too. 🤦‍♂️

I’ve come out to watch every Scotland game and they’re essentially my second team but bah Christ they’re a hard watch mind. If England frustrate ya try watching and being invested in Scotland. 😫

@DianeBruce So I hear, you're the second person to tell me that. Thanks.

@ed1conf Ahhh right, that would explain it then. Thanks.

Got two calls from a call centre sounding guy but from a mobile phone claiming that I'd rang him, told him I hadn't and there are definitely no outbound calls in my history, is this some weird new scam thing somehow?
