I suspect the answer lies in paragraph 4, where I’m making the assumption that the scammers make contact directly with the buyers, and invite a payment to be made to the scammers rather than the brokers.

I suppose in a strictly legal sense, the brokers are off the hook then as they’ve no idea the scammers have asked the buyers to send a payment.

It’s scummy as fuck all round.

Man I miss Eudora back in the day. I used the mail client in SeaMonkey before I just started using my phone to check mail.

The 90s and 2000s were a simpler time.

I understand that mine is an entirely subjective and emotive opinion, but I hardly think being followed about by the Led By Donkeys mob and being made to look silly twice a year, is comparable to the hundreds of thousands (if not millions, I don’t have the stats) of folk who had their mortgages go up ten per cent after the markets got kami-Kwasi’d in the sum total of twenty minutes.

Fuck right off Liz, enjoy your tainted career and seeing lettuces in comedy places for the rest of your life.

That’s not the problematic metric though. It’s the 70-80% (link) install base of the Windows OS on desktop computers that Edge is installed with that’s the basis of the anti-competitive allegation.

The fact that it still only takes 5% of the browser usage is more of a happy accident.

This is how you get shot for the silliest of reasons.

Unless it’s the initial outreach team or on-premises staff, sales would be one of the few roles totally suited to remote working.

Some of the more creative or collaborative roles I can see the argument for hybrid working - even if it’s just one day a week or month in the office - but sales, customer service, or first line support seems to be the last area you’d impose a return to work mandate on.

That said, I haven’t got extortionate office rents to justify 😂

Do a credit card next!

Same as the Unihertz Titan. I ran with that for two years and it was decent, if underpowered.

The dream is all but dead for all fourteen and a half of us QWERTY phone enthusiasts I think. A surprising number went to the Samsung Galaxy Flip models, though having used this for two years or so, I wouldn’t recommend it either.

Maybe one day…

Purely a subjective opinion (and I apologise if the artist shows up in this thread) but is it me or does it look like the person who made the background took a step back after it was done, marvelled at how pretty it was, and enjoyed the moment before thinking “…fuck I forgot about O’Brien”?

It’s a great bit of artwork but poor Miles looks like an afterthought!

Thank you :)

I took my eldest in with me to show how it all works, what the people to, what voting is, why it’s important, why it’s secret etc.

He looked entirely disinterested. Fair enough, but I was hoping it would take another thirty years before he got to that stage!

Poundland Bear Grylls strikes again.

I mean, an LD govt would be pretty mint, but I don’t think I’ve honestly ever thought of what an LD opposition would look like.

Maybe we’ll find out.

Yeah I should have known better really.

Bet’s off:

£10 says we’ll be in double figures of Tories being investigated by polling day.

Two grand says that day will be July 4th.

I encountered Quishing the other day - the inadvertent scanning of QR codes that take a browser to a malformed URL or site with malware embedded.

Back in my day, it was just called “being a bit dense”, especially as most cameras/QR readers will offer you a prompt to go to a website first.

How is someone getting control of their data by paying a ransom?

The opposing actor still has your data, so it doesn’t really matter how much you pay, you’ll never be able to mitigate that security issue, surely?

I know it gets put out every election silly season but it never fails to make me smile.
