Just put it on its side.

It’s a room made from platinum-iridium, and kept in a triple-locked vault at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures in France.

Don’t mention “the incident”!

They’re installing Ubuntu.

They’re disco snails. It’s not a spoof - they’ve found the groof.

Basically the plot of Blindsight by Peter Watts.

I recognise the grandstand from the Marylebone Cricket Club, but they tore down the rest of the stadium. I guess that’s a good thing?

Pain in the arse if you’re staying in Split and do a day trip to Dubrovnik. You pass thru customs and immigration twice in the space of 100 meters and 2 hours.

In 20 or so years, when there are more voters unable to buy houses than there are voters who own houses, this should autocorrect.

£2600 tube fare, and that’s not counting lunch, coffee etc.

That’s fine, I won’t even see it until somebody asks me on slack if I saw their email.

Reminds me of the KSP2 fiasco. Management insisting on reusing the engine from the old game, and firing all the senior devs who could have told them there was no possibility of getting the features they’d announced to work without rewriting the engine from scratch.
