Hmmmmm lower electric bills for our countries electorate OR giant buildings they hate that pollute their water, give them ill health from noise pollution, and take their jobs?

Nah mate, let's pick him up, dump him in a canal, and then pelt him with bits of broken brick as he tries to swim and climb out whilst calling him an absolute melt.

We do things differently here.

Boron and Sand?

Americans now need a wanking license.

May I present to you, how to measure like a Brit

It's great fun especially when you're trying to work out how fuel efficient your car has been when your tank and fuel pump is in litres and the fuel efficiency is in miles per gallon.

Oh and you'll have a jolly time following a recipe from more than 20 years ago trying to remember what the hell "Gas Mark 4" is in centigrade for fan or convection ovens.

Oh and my personal favourite for the industry I'm in: when designing a PCB your component sizes will use imperial codes, your wire diameters will be in AWG, your track widths and PCB dimensions will be in millimetres, but your copper thicknesses will be in ounces despite the final weight for the assembly will be in grams.

Christ, I wish Americans would get over their embarrassment that half their population has a vagina.

Millennials are wasting a 1/3 of their day in laying in bed. We spoke to industry experts about how this generation habit is impacting productivity.

Absolutely no chance this ever happened.

What the hell are these people on? Huffing Mercury?

This is particularly American sensibility about not drinking alcohol casually around children. It's very strange. In the UK and Europe, if a kid is having a birthday party at their house it's completely normal for the adults to be having a casual beer or wine and socialising whilst the children play, obviously not drinking to get drunk and within the legal limits for the driver.

"America Party"

Americans really are the ultimate parody of themselves. Have fun with your civil war.

He's on loan, please don't get scratches on him that won't buff out.

"Please use legal paid services" yeah I would if

1. They actually had the content I'd like to buy available for purchase
2. I actually get a copy to keep and not rent for an indefinite period of time until the rights holder and / or vendor forgets to renew and it gets automatically removed.

I can't wait for the future 4 hour video deep dive into Nicole history and lore.

Bold words coming from a couch fucker.

Oh no! They might learn vaginas exist! 😱 /s

Sorry citizen, every time you enter the bar we've got to take a swab from your genitals to check that since you were last here you haven't fucked any kids.

Fucking ridiculous. If you want to prevent CSAM spreading across Europe do this instead:

• new funding for a cross boarder specialist taskforce to coordinate law enforcement agencies.
• hide the identity of defendant and victim during trials.
• offer a slightly lighter sentence to offenders if they successfully help with bringing down the rings.
• a large cross-boarder sting operation.
• new funding for therapy for offenders to reform them and during and after they've served their time.
• new funding for a confidential service to provide prevention therapy to potential offenders before they commit that horrid act against a child.

Investigation and surgical removal of the whole rotten ring of kid fuckers will curve CSAM creation and distribution in the EU.

Then preventative measures to stop creators/ consumers of CSAM because prevention is more effective than trying to cure it.

Child sexual abuse is one of, if not the most evil act someone can commit and they should face very steep punishment for it. And anyone proposing any policy offering help to reform them is committing political suicide.

But ignoring the fact that people have the capacity to commit an evil act of that magnitude, demonising them, and then offering no support network to prevent them is not going to solve the problem. It doesn't work for any crime and certainly not this.

So a nucler reactor is just a kettle with an extra spicy heating element?

You dislike brioche buns because they're greasy.

I dislike brioche buns because they're overused by chefs that don't know how to pair sweet bread with savoury meats.

We are not the same.

Slashing 10% of your workforce annually is something Jack Welch thought of when he was CEO of General Electric; essentially it shifts that 10% of staff overhead cost straight to profits per year.

The justification they give for the figure is that it's the lowest performing 10% according to internal key performance indicator (KPI) metrics. What this effectively does is two fold:

1. Anyone who's focusing on delivering stuff the company needs long term isn't always or sometimes never will produce nice neat KPIs that can be measured along with the rest of the company. This means these people are under constant pressure and can often get swept up in the firings.

2. It makes KPIs, a measuring tool, the target which as any statistician will tell you that when you make the measurement a target it ceases to be a good measuring tool. Because everyone is automatically incentivised to deliver KPIs NOT the actual company deliverables that generate the added value and therefore the profit.

This means after 5 to 10 years of this cycle all that's left of the company's institutional knowledge is how to deliver for KPIs and the sycophants who best adapt to this reality. You get a hollowing out of the company.

If this AI fuelled trend keeps up then companies like Cisco and Meta will eventually implode at some point.
