Noise cancelling headphones immediately springs to mind - you could claim hyperacusis or something similar, it's so prevalent it would be an acceptable excuse.

And pushed back further into Russia as partial compensation for the damages wrought on Ukraine. A buffer zone to be installed, shall we say 200km for starters.

Attack on BAE-managed system disrupts US bankruptcy courts

Wonder whose bankruptcy was due to be published that day? 👀 Cyberattack on a BAE-managed system disrupts US bankruptcy courts—right mid-proceedings. Purely coincidental, obviously. Nothing time-sensitive in those records. Move along. 🙄 #BAE #Cyberattack #BankruptcyCourts #ConvenientTiming

Further evidence, if ever there was any needed, to get away from these US corporations & return all our data back to EU servers & operators. This is effectively hijacking/kidnapping data & extorting funds to the US.

Hmm, I have to say "no" to this, 🇺🇦 cannot win their defence against 🇷🇺 solely because they have "slightly" extended access to Musk's Starlink. A whole conflict CANNOT depend upon one sole commercial organisation. Companies do not win wars - people do, namely Ukrainians.

Oh No Donald ! Another country getting involved with Nukes ! Who ya gonna call ? NukeBusters.

Embroidered US Army shoulder patch for the "Nukebusters" division, shown head-on against a dark background. The circular patch has a red-and-white ring border with a stylized cartoon atom crossed by a small nuclear warhead, accented in glowing radioactive green. "NUKEBUSTERS" curves in chunky military stencil letters around the top of the circle, with a star at the bottom. Stitched texture with a merrowed edge, in desert tan, olive green, and orange.

Trump spouting absolute garbage again ! There are so many routes to attack the continental US, FFS you could almost throw stones at Alaska from Russia & that does not go over Greenland. But knowing USAians general knowledge of maps & geography they'll fall for this rubbish every time.

This sounds like a lot of money. But it’s €3 per person in the EU - to get rid of Amazon, Microsoft, Google from government and business. With current prices, that sounds like one of the best deals ever. www.theregister.com/paas-and-iaa...

Personal health data MUST be protected & MUST NOT be transferred out of the 🇪🇺. RGPD must do its job—strictly enforced, not waved through. Regulators (CNIL, EDPB) need to scrutinise this deal now. Once health data leaks, it can never be taken back. 🧵4/4 #CNIL #EDPB #GDPRCompliance

Let's be clear what's at stake: a 🇺🇸 tech firm now holds influence over one of Europe's largest health databases. 🇺🇸 law (FISA, Cloud Act) can compel 🇺🇸 companies to hand over data to 🇺🇸 authorities—precisely the risk the GDPR & Schrems II ruling were designed to prevent. 🧵3/4 #GDPR #SchremsII

Good to know they're improving, all you hear about is the poor assistance service, OK bad news travels faster than good news. Hope DB keep to schedule, that's seemingly their current weakness.

How were the assistance services that you booked so far on the journey ?

Pourquoi seulement les anciens combattants ? Il faudrait inclure tous les Russes ; les non-combattants, jeunes ou vieux, sont tout à fait capables d'endommager les systèmes et infrastructures européens.

They're crazy, all it would take is a few cents/transaction added onto the price "found" & then bought through a "fake shopfront" of the original site & Muskiness could make millions overnight. But, if the twitteraties are that stupid, well - have at it. They get their product so think they won.

En cas de doute, n'achetez pas et signalez-le au magasin. La prudence s'impose dans les jours à venir. 🧵5/5 #Surgelés #ConseilsConsommateurs #Vigilance #SecuriteDesProduits

Conseil pratique pour les consommateurs : si vous achetez du surgelé ou du frais dans les enseignes touchées, vérifiez l'état des emballages—pas de traces de décongélation (paquets collés, glaçons anormaux, cartons humides), dates intactes, aspect normal. 🧵4/5

C'est une perte économique majeure, mais c'est la seule option sécuritaire. 🧵3/5 #Surgelés #ConseilsConsommateurs #Vigilance #SecuriteDesProduits

Pourquoi ce gaspillage ? Sans informatique fonctionnelle, impossible de suivre les températures de stockage et de tracer les produits. La règle est simple : en cas de doute sur la chaîne du froid, les produits périssables sont retirés et détruits par précaution. 🧵2/5

He dare not get involved with the Houthies until after the mid-terms when putting US forces into further conflict won't affect the voting. Not that the voting environment is really on the side of the Republicans. One can only hope for the US to see sense & vote correctly. #VoteDemocrat

Yep, exactly and that's how I used to take it. Although nowadays I don't drink alcohol any more, I'm retired & really not needing the "wind-down" at day's end.

Trump standing in front of his followers, calls them STUPID and they clap & cheer him. One of the few times that the Liar in Chief has spoken the truth. Republicans & MAGAts really are fucking stupid.

Then the "product" should be treated like any other illicit import, it must be SEIZED & if necessary DESTROYED. The cost of said actions AND the cost of the material to be seized from the trump family (extended or otherwise) accounts. #ImpoundTheRussianDiesel

True, he should have - but unfortunately what tRump said is exactly what he intended to say.
