    Brexit explained in a single toot

  • I don’t think that even Boris could have pulled that lie off. The Conservatives were very weak at the time which is why they agreed to the referendum in the first place.

  • I don’t think that there’s any scenario that involves us rejoining the EU and keeping the £.

    We lost that special position and we’re not getting it back because the EU have found that they can manage without us.

  • They didn’t, but there’d have been literal rioting in the streets and the Conservatives wouldn’t have got back in power for at least a decade or two had they gone back on it.

  • That’s a little too close to reality for comfort. 😟

    We have several governments saying that being able to read some people’s encrypted messages would catch some criminals, therefore we need to be able to read everyone’s encrypted messages.

  • Gordon Ramsay one of the first celebrity chefs to bring US-style 20 % service charge

    Jump

  • I do agree with you in that it’s much better for the price to be the price and for tips to be entirely up to the customer.

    That’s how it is in most UK restaurants in my experience but tips being added on already is creeping in. It used to be for large groups, then smaller groups and now a few places do it for everyone. Very annoying.

    Great so assholes can get a 20% discount.

    You’d be being an asshole if you were just doing it on principle but I have received bad service and asked for the tip to be removed. I didn’t feel like I was being a dick.

  • Doing this is different to increasing the price.

    Firstly, from a PR point of view, it tells people that the extra money is going to the staff and not the restaurant.

    More importantly, in the UK, we are legally able to object to a service charge placed on the bill and they have to remove it.

  • World loses patience with Trump as war no longer just about Iran

    Jump

  • It is a reflection of the lack of integrity in the political systems of other countries that no sanctions have been imposed on the US in response to its brutal actions in Iran - this war is just as much a war of aggression in violation of international law as the one Russia is waging against Ukraine.

    I don’t think that it’s a lack of integrity that’s resulted in sanctions not being applied against the US. We just wouldn’t be able to weather the financial consequences of sanctioning them.

    Integrity is lacking but I don’t think that a government with 100% integrity would be able to afford to sanction the US.

  • I don’t think that Europe could start trading with Iran without backlash from the US.

    Don’t their sanctions usually knock on to anyone who trades with the sanctioned country?

    Although with TACO in charge it would just be another day another argument I guess.

  • TIL chicken sold in supermarkets are often "plumped" with a salt water solution to increase sell weight, making up as much as 30% of the total weight, and can contain up to 500mg of sodium per serving

  • You have to trust the contract.

    If you use Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace etc then they already have all your data anyway. Most businesses have to trust other companies and the contract at some point.

    The only other option is to use Open Source self hosted everything which is beyond most people’s ability.

  • If you’re a business with a contract with them it should state that they won’t use your data to train their models.

    If you’re using the free service then you’re right that it’s safe to assume that your data was already being used.
