Seems to be a startup.

We’ve been told, in the UK at least, COVID is never going away. So it’s possible that large scale it’s over. Cinemas will live on in some form.

Very normal word from where I'm from (UK). Has multiple connotations.

I have a late 2013 macbook running 10.14.6 and it's quite pleasant.

>> A recent survey of more than 1,000 Brits found that that the average person says ‘sorry’ around eight times per day – and that one in eight people apologise up to 20 times a day.

“The readiness of the English to apologise for something they haven’t done is remarkable, and it is matched by an unwillingness to apologise for what they have done,” wrote Henry Hitchings in his aptly-titled Sorry!: The English and their Manners.

This is apparently called the “Sorry reflex”. I’ve recently learned that “sorry!” in London at least, can mean - “fuck off/you”. I would say sorry to someone bumping into me and not realise why but now I understand why.

Officially incorporated?

I’ve absolutely stopped recommending it. I won’t link my Facebook account so will use it until it’s disabled. Looking forward to supporting their competitors. It’s a shame, I enjoy the device.

Most of those are British...cult classic is a decent epitaph but most people have not heard of it...

Maybe vaguely referring to Salam Pax.

How this movie isn’t considered one of the best of all time is beyond me.

Would like an invite to tildes if you can spare...

How very sad. So much knowledge. Thanks for posting that.

I disagree. Covid is a catalyst, instant communication and misinformation is out of control and as someone who has boots on the ground, I’ve never seen such worry and lack of hope in my life.

'Go back to work or risk losing your job': Major drive launched to get people returning to the office

Ministers warn that continuing to work from home could make staff ‘vulnerable’ to being sacked

It’s more like cattle if you’ve ever been on the tube at rush hour, waiting for train after train because it’s so full, to hopefully end up in someone’s armpit, 20 metres underground. There was the adage that Animal Welfare regulations would not allow this to happen. Central Line in the summer.

“Obviously”.

What isn’t collecting “too much” data at this point?

It basically was...

>The Anglo-Persian Oil Company (APOC) was a British company founded in 1908 following the discovery of a large oil field in Masjed Soleiman, Iran. The British government purchased 51% of the company in 1914,[1] gaining a controlling number of shares, effectively nationalizing the company. It was the first company to extract petroleum from Iran. In 1935 APOC was renamed the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (AIOC) when Reza Shah Pahlavi formally asked foreign countries to refer to Persia by its endonym Iran.

Required for arena before - I would not buy one if this was mandatory to turn it on.

It’s a super device but I’ll never recommend it again.

I will use mine for 2 years but I have zero need for social.

I wouldn’t have bought one. At least I get two years use.

I have been recommending the Quest but that’s all over.

But rarely are.

I don’t have much to say except I purposefully silo my contacts for sanity’s sake and would like information from someone knowledgable how to keep them separate.
