Huh, TIL. What’s it intended for then?

Totally agree. I’m on restricted duties at the moment so meet all of my clients on teams. I hate it. The audio is terrible so one or both of us is always mishearing, my desk is in front of a window so I have to keep my curtains closed for them to see me. I don’t get to build the same rapport with them and their responses to my questions are more stilted because of it. A large part of my job is judging body language and reading non-verbal cues, which is next to impossible on teams.

And on monday, my computer decided to do a mandatory, 3 hour update, so I missed an appointment and couldn’t access the client’s number to apologise or explain. So I had to text a colleague to run over to the client’s office let them know I wasn’t going to make it

What year was this?

My 2 was amazing, it lasted me years and worked so well with minimal bloat. I went for the 10pro this time and it’s not the same. The camera’s phenomenal but it’s now two years old and just not holding up well. Glitches like crazy and the battery’s starting to die. Can’t distinguish it from any other phone now

Oneplus have paired with Hasselblad, if you’re looking for something with a good camera. I regret the phone because the quality has gone downhill over the generations but the camera is on point

‘What’

Yeah but it’s still a third of the price

Just here to let you all know that mine is currently 1. Living in the middle of nowhere has its benefits, at times

Who hasn’t made fucked up choices when they were 15? Especially having been groomed, we should be apologising for having failed her.

You joke but yeah, that’s a thing. Season ticket holders of my local club with a disability can request a free pick-up and drop-off for every match

Yeah, probably an old wives tale, I guess

I can’t speak for all women but I think I’d try to have enough of both food and pads/tampons if I could. Pads are much more efficient at absorbing than a bundle of cloth and are cleaner, so wouldn’t cause thrush and other infections

Pads and tampons are also good first aid supplies - I think tampons were first invented to plug bullet holes

Yes, well done. The US is behind Iraq and Zimbabwe so of course nothing needs to be done in the US until those countries sort their shit out

Yeah, by stuffing moss and bundles of cotton in their knickers. If it’s a choice of that or stocking up on pads when I’m raiding Tesco, I know which one I’d rather

Eh, if he’s already saying it, might as well make it true

Imagine being selected for jury on this case. It’d be so surreal

‘nothing of value’ - I think purplepuppy was suggesting that people/migrants/human lives have value

I think it depends on need vs want. Does she need her cats, friends and most of the crew? No, she just wants them. Most large venues are able to povide staging crew, for instance. I can see a ‘need’ for a stylist or lighting director for example, since a local placeholder just wouldn’t be able to re-create the exact style or look that they want.

But that’s not enough people to warrant a private jet. I think it’d be more justifiable for the plane to be fitted with regular passenger seating and for those seats to be sold to the public as commercial travel

Thanks, that’s the one I’ve seen recommended the most, I reckon

Maybe this weekend I’ll give it a go on the old laptop
