@tautology0 @tautology@infosec.exchange @tautology.uk vi is the best editor. The Oxford comma is totally superfluous and does not need to be used in 90% of cases. "Die Hard" is not a Christmas film. "Internet" is a proper noun.

Procrastinating by cleaning up the garage. Found my old CD case, which contained these this CD from about 20 years ago. I'm half curious as to what's on it.

@steelcon.info n I went to put in the bottles of hendos in the "to be used" part of the cupboard and found an unopened one from last year. What can I do with four bottles of hendos? I'm not certain hendowine would work.

Other things that you can't use whilst plugged in and that don't warn you in a timely manner before they run out of power (like headsets). My beard trimmer. I go out in 25 minutes and it failed halfway through trimming. Can the trimmer get enough power in time?

This week, Brexit finally killed our family business. We cleared out our warehouse, handed back the keys, paid the final bills and said goodbye to our last employee. What was once a thriving firm died a slow, sad death, all thanks to Farage, Johnson and the gullible idiots they conned. 1/18

Starmer announces that the UK is pursuing closer EU relations: “Brexit did deep damage to our economy. And the opportunities to strengthen our security and cut the cost of living are simply too big to ignore. We want to be more ambitious. Closer economic cooperation. Closer security cooperation.”

I have deleted my original debunk of this story as it appears it is actually an amalgamation of 2 stories... (Don't let anyone tell you I'm not prepared to be corrected!!) So let's look at them individually: We'll start with the photo... So what's going on? 🧵1/12

Screenshot of a tweet saying: * WTF: Lincolnshire Church of England primary school allegedly forced 7-year-old children (none Muslim) to perform full Islamic prayers to Allah in RE lesson. "We did prayers to Allah yesterday," one girl told her father. Pupils were shown a demonstration video then told to kneel, bow heads & copy the movements themselves. Angry parents reported it to Lincolnshire Police. School unnamed amid backlash fears. Disgraceful.

Social Media Bans are like the “Peanut Allergy” Bans of the 1990s/2000s: they will unnecessarily create a generation who cannot cope with the digital environment

If you forcibly isolate an entire generation from influences that they are bound to encounter later in life, you are doing them harm by preventing them learning early how to cope. “If we are …

On almost everything – fraud, polarisation, radicalisation, misinformation – evidence suggests that over 60s are in much more urgent need of online protection and education than teenagers. But that issue gets zero political attention, and is a total non-starter. Nothing good will come of it.

This was a minor story on London news this morning - but suspect is a real cautionary (and alarming) tale of an older man getting radicalised online. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I'm trying a new "see how well AI image gen is" test. This time I'm going to ask it to draw a map of the world, and then zoom in to Europe, the UK, Yorkshire and York to see when things start to get hazy. All of these are with the free models using the smart/thinking variants. 1/n

Superb - and alarming - piece on the torrent of falsehood and disinformation pouring into people's phones, designed to stir up racial hatred. If you don't subscribe to @londoncentric.media, its investigative journalism is outstanding. @jim.londoncentric.media www.londoncentric.media/p/tiktok-lon...

Who's secretly filming fake TikToks inside Londoners' homes?

We tracked down the viral video account invading people's houses to spread false claims about immigrants.
