A barrister is actually facing prison just for reminding a jury they have the right to vote with their conscience. � It’s a historic right that's been around for centuries, and if lawyers can't even mention it without risking jail time, it’s bad news for everyone's right to a fair trial. � take a look and see if you’d like to sign too: https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/save-britain-s-juries #PoliyicsUK

@passenger@kolektiva.social @dieTasse@floss.social @signalapp@mastodon.world they probably came up with this "solution" by asking an llm.

@xs4me2@mastodon.social @petergleick@fediscience.org at least one, but don't worry there are many more for us to pass in the coming decades.

@rebelrebel62 @mbpaz @isol @GayDeceiver Never gets old. https://youtu.be/ZRc0by2vZ7k?si=BJUQE2Alwn9hTyZV #Brexit #Farage

@gimulnautti @golgaloth it's a war crime to destroy food, but it's not to consume it. As long as she ensures he is fed sufficiently once he surrenders it's fine.

@kimlockhartga@beige.party @amydiehl@mstdn.social every job description I see these days end with "...and various other business related task appropriate to this role." which basicly means management may ask you to do anything they decide the company needs doing.

@blackcoat @floe @Remittancegirl because he's an arsehole, and Putin inspires him to be a bigger arsehole. He doesn't need any more reason than he likes that it bothers other people.

@alikatze @AimeeMaroux maybe all the fired bus drivers could get jobs, at lower pay obviously. Sitting on a bus is much lower skilled than driving one 😡

@Aaidanbird I was disappointed to see my kids school had their year all doing literature reviews of the Philosophers Stone this past term 😬

@ClickyMcTicker@hachyderm.io @catsalad@infosec.exchange @ramonfincken@mastodon.social that's why I have not already lied about my kids ages and set them up multiple accounts on web services they're not old enough to use yet.

@RickiTarr@beige.party that can't be right. Ravioli are pasties, but lasagna is sandwiches.

@griffin30007 @nblr No. They cross over so you physically cannot use both at the same time. You choose one or the other, and if you only have one in stock, you don't have to go out and find the other type!

@bitprophet@social.coop @infobeautiful@vis.social Because some of the people making "predictions" were actually trying to influence investment, either in renewables themselves or in fossil fuel extraction.

@greatlaketrout@noc.social @IvanSanchez@mastodon.social @jdelacueva@mastodon.social @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu Come on, they only decided that last year! You can't expect them to have actually done anything about it yet.

@xinit@mastodon.coffee @rootsworks@idlethumbs.social Necromantic Accountancy

@alice but that implies heterosexuals remain hetro even when they are single, and surely nobody believes that!

@kimlockhartga@beige.party @amydiehl@mstdn.social Any more open ended and it would be unenforcable. As it is they can force you to do anything that others in your role have agreed to do before.

@wronglang @seldo@alpaca.gold @janl The expectation he comply with the California Data Privacy Act and, GDPR regulation.

@AinsleyLowbeer@mastodon.social @annecavicchi@mindly.social you will end up with multiple blunt force injuries.

@Pepijn @alexisbushnell A lot of people I know never even went on school trips to London, let alone Wesminster. And I grew up / live only 40-50 miles away.

@PoLaRobs@fediscience.org @SusiArnott@mastodon.green hey! You were just "warned" that decline is because of the Iran war. Obviously as soon as the war ends demand is going to increase exponentially. Don't you understand that means they definitely still need that extra runway.

@mkwadee@mastodon.org.uk looks like a partially sucked gob stopper!

@Uair @Jeroen89 The area was named the fertile crescent specifically for river valleys, and what they were like over 3000 years ago. The area was already becoming dryer at that time, and about 60,000 years ago the whole Arabian peninsula was a jungle. Also the war wasn't fought in the prime farming areas.

@feijoa I did a CBT course a few years ago. I thought it was very interesting but of no help at all because it was too "theoretical". I said the course seemed like it was aimed at students of mental health rather than the people who actually had problems. Sounds like that was actually just the way my brain chose to interpret it. Which made total sense as I couldn't stop thinking about this Terry Prattchett book thoughout the whole course.

@clonedhuman@mastodon.social @hacks4pancakes@infosec.exchange not if they're staging the attempts!

@Waxingtonknee who doesn't love a good flag.

@adamantichrist@mastodon.social @georgetakei@universeodon.com Ha! That shows how much you know. It's actually gay frogs that are causing climaite change.

@patterfloof I want you becoming a mentor!

@Lana @CherylMorgan @iaruffell Two good options, but surely we can find a British transgender actor who would suit the role?

@Kdude @EUCommission people who care already know. People who don't care don't want to know.

@rgulick@social.coop @randahl@mastodon.social That reminds me I still haven't gotten around to rewatching The Madnes of King George.

@mfdeakin @mattblaze they do program them before they hand them to you, but the reason for that is security. They could just program a specific key for every room and put the room numbers on them, but that is considered bad practice.

@chris@mastodon.chrispelli.fun @nixCraft@mastodon.social Not very well. In my last job, someone from the training department lectured me about the importance of doing security training, because I deleted the unexpected e-mail from the outside company providing said training without clicking the link... They literally contradicted the training course they had supposedly done. If you want a population with system security skills then you need system security to be taught in schools at all ages.

@foobarblubb Just a guess. Is that the post WW2 Constitution ?

@azonenberg @petergleick it's constantly at war because if the US, Russia, and/or Europe isn't starting wars there, it's selling weapons to warlords, dictators, and other repressive regimes there. It's almost as if the massive oil companies and non middle eastern oil producing countries benefit from the instability of supply from there, and the sudden price hikes that result from these conflicts.

@jezhiggins@mastodon.me.uk @GeePawHill@mastodon.social I heard someone describe another guy as unable to tell his arse from his elbow. Only for someone else to comment "He's as high as a kite, right now he couldn't tell you if it was arsehole or Tuesday".

@TimWardCam @MarkHoltom I suppose it depends on what people think the difference is between important, and very important. To me the "very" suggests more important than average, which 80% can't be if every persons existence is as valid as anothers.

@bkuhn@fedi.copyleft.org @evacide@hachyderm.io If you've never seen facial hair on an older woman, you're hanging around with the wrong type of people 🙄

@Christo_459@mastodon.me.uk @pvonhellermannn@mastodon.green Because of how our election system works, if this were an actual General Election result Reform would probably be the largest party. Greens would be third. https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/fcgi-bin/usercode.py?scotcontrol=N&CON=20.5&LAB=17&LIB=9.2&Reform=20.9&Green=21.4&UKIP=&TVCON=100&TVLAB=100&TVLIB=100&TVReform=100&TVGreen=100&TVUKIP=&TVNAT=100&SCOTCON=&SCOTLAB=&SCOTLIB=&SCOTReform=&SCOTGreen=&SCOTUKIP=&SCOTNAT=&display=AllChanged&regorseat=%28none%29&boundary=2024base

@bkuhn@fedi.copyleft.org you are choosing to interpret something as implied exclusivity, when implied probability is both equally viable, and matches actual reality 🤷

@MarkHoltom@mastodonapp.uk It's almost like starving society of local spending & investment is bad for the economy or something!

@LeoApwal oh, like dismissing them.

@hacks4pancakes@infosec.exchange this time round it sounds like the people involved were a lot more competent.

@epistomai@mastodon.social @streetartutopia@mastodon.online the Andrew formerly known as prince is not a Billionaire, he lives off other peoples money. Edit OK so they all do, but he doesn't have half the people convinced that it's his.

@frak@mastodon.org.uk I've met two people (separately) who claimed to have played soggy biscuit. Both in connection to a Rugby club, but niether of them knew the other as far as I'm aware.

@jwildeboer @timjclevenger that would be great, if such things existed.

@woe2you @bruces given the spelling difference, I'm hoping its a coincidence.

@feijoa@mastodon.org.uk if you mean Diesel electric, then they are a significantly different technology to that used in a modern hybrid engine.

@Urban_Hermit @inthehands @RnDanger this makes me feel perversly lucky that the senior peole in my department seem just as frustrated as the rest of us, that the directors won't address systemic issues that all but the most oblivious of employees have managed to identify.

@filmfreak75 @autistics Minimizing Barriers? That one sounds positive.
