This made me laugh. Reminded me of Tim Key's podcast on Daniil Kharms. If you can get it, it's well worth a listen:

That's odd

What fire risk if it's in a dishwasher? :)

Amazon is well known for surveilling its staff. Why act surprised that staff think the worst when they find another piece of surveillance gear in the breakroom?

None whatsoever. Brexit has been a disaster, especially for Wales which received substantial EU funding.

That would likely create a perverse incentive.

He's saying that life in Spain was easier when you could have your pension/unemploment benefit paid into your account from the UK whilst also earning money doing cash in hand jobs locally.

Such an ugly response. Their situation is that their children are already at risk.

I don't think you grasp the severity of the situation in Mexico. Perhaps you should go strut your tough stuff over the border. The state dept advise against it due to the high levels of violence and kidnapping.

That wouldn't matter to a would-be criminal though.

As Ian Hislop put it:

Boris Johnson, people always ask me the same question, they say, 'Is Boris a very very clever man pretending to be an idiot?' And I always say, 'No.'

There are no positives for the future when the PM tries to subvert parliament. The true meaning of "taking back control" is plain to see.

It doesn't have to be the nose. You can use the rise and fall of your stomach as your focus. It is merely a point that allows you to notice when you've become distracted.

Everything about this says creepy.

The very definition of a puff piece. An interesting viewpoint that buying a big boat is an act of social giving.

Or if you can't beat 'em, co-opt 'em

Just because they're getting something out of it doesn't mean it's a better deal all round. Amazon saves individuals money but that doesn't ameliorate the externalities that Amazon's business model create.

The impression is that Uber are somehow freeing customers from unscrupulous and gouging taxi drivers. Taxi customers aren't being freed, they're simply under new management.

Microsoft saw Apple's ecosystem of inter-operating devices and the simple transition between using mobile and desktop devices and thought, 'We'd like some of that'. Windows 8 seemed to be about two things, making life easier for MS and pushing desktop/laptop users into familiarity with their mobile OS.

A bit off-topic but is there a name for the tone of the copy on this? It reads like the current tranche of MS/Apple advertising speak. Would cult-like be going too far?

How could any industry evolve beyond such easy money? As long as there are users who will put up with Google/MyCoolWebSearch/ALOT/Conduit/Baylon/etcetera messing around with their settings and information these firms will never move away from these tactics.

If I rememeber correctly, Ccleaner was removed from Ninite due to the automatic refusal of big G's toolbar.

There's a very good reason it's in Guantanamo and not upstate New York (and it's not because of the climate).
