Yeah, the #uk #economy is #shrinking and #inflation is getting worse, we can feel it! https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/uk-m.. All is good and well though, because the #ons #office of #national #statistics will simple #redefine #gdp to means something else, in the the #memoryhole it goes! https://blog.ons.gov.uk/2022/11/11/inclu.. They are *insane.* These people #advise the #uk #government ...
#microsoft casually #phoninghome the entire #content of every #powerpoint you make, because #telemetry https://rogermexico.bearblog.dev/microso.. I know for example the #uk #military all use #office 365, so how the fuck is that supposed to work?
You know shit is bad in the #uk why the #office of #national #statistics say things like "look past #gdp and think about #climate ": https://blog.ons.gov.uk/2022/05/12/looki.. We won't be able to enjoy a better climate if our Country does not #survive #economically .
#microsoft gets shittier by the day. Once you #purchase your #license for Microsoft #windows (which you cannot opt out of if you run #linux ), you then go out and #buy Microsoft #office . Then, at your cost, you get shown #ads in your #start #menu #panel and #outlook #email https://twitter.com/louisnicholls_/statu.. Soon you will also #require an #account ! https://www.theverge.com/2022/2/18/22940.. It's #free for now...
If you want to know what's happening with your #uk #taxpayer #money - the #ons #office for #national #statistics are creating a #podcast with it! https://blog.ons.gov.uk/2022/02/14/stati.. It's called #statisticallyspeaking ... This is either #genius #public #relations - or the biggest waste of #tax and #time ever created.
Very interesting, #us #congressman #troynehls had an #illegal #investigation of his #office and #staff by #capitol #police https://www.zerohedge.com/political/capi.. Apparently they #dressed like #construction #workers and #photographed #confidential #information - this is a very dangerous move in #politics . #politicians *require* the ability to act in good faith, to have uneasy #discussions , etc.
Weird, the #uk 's #office for #national #statistics #ons is claiming that the #official #deaths for #covid are 10x the reported valued, from 17k #reported to 140k in reality: https://blog.ons.gov.uk/2022/01/26/to-sa.. I suspect they go too much the other way, you would need to look at #expected death rate vs actual death rate for something more representative...
@barray on Mon Nov 15 20:38:15 UTC 2021 said: &eAfter two #hour #waiting in the #immigration #nz #call #queue I had to #hangup - actually insane. Now calling a different #office instead. That previous #phonecall cost over $50 - looking forward to the next one...1.5 #hours and counting #waiting for an #nz #immigration #officer - kill me. I hate this a lot. The #call #queue seems like a joke. I swear they haven't even woken up yet.
The #immigration #nz #office #hours might start at 8am, but they definitely don't pick up the phones at 8am. I literally timed it perfectly, no way am I sitting that far behind in the #call #queue . Bare in mind, this is costing me $1 per #minute - I swear they have a #contract with the #phone #companies !
The #us 's #biden #administration acting very shady indeed, this time #raiding the #office of #projectveritas apparently to #recover #biden 's #daughter 's 'lost' #diary https://www.zerohedge.com/political/5-un.. This is ultra suspect... People are rightfully suggesting that the #fbi are using this as an excuse to search their office regarding another #story ...
I am glad to be made aware of this by the #lotuseaters - but by god is it #depressing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UE0pPtGV.. #uk #conservative #mp 's are moving towards #banning people from running for #office for previously #offending an #mp . A #british #school hold a an #mp on " #trial " for the " #sins " of his #ancestors ... There is also yet another call for #reparations ... Insanity.
You have #china 's #ccp getting mad about #taiwan again, this time because #lithuania have allowed #taiwan to open a #diplomatic #office in the #capital of #vilnius https://www.lotuseaters.com/china-recall.. Hopefully more Countries follow suite soon.
Looks like #google will #require #vaccination evidence to work in the #office https://blog.google/inside-google/compan.. So much for "my body, my choice". I don't suppose many people at Google will push back against getting a #vaccine - but the fact there is no choice to begin with is significant.
In #sanfrancisco in the #us - they have 17 million square feet of unused office space: https://socketsite.com/archives/2021/07/.. Yet a ridiculous amount of #homeless are unable to find space at all and #rent continues to increase. While these buildings would be tough to convert to #residentialspace - I'm sure some work could be done to incentivize #office workers into these buildings and out of buildings that could become residential...
