Random coincidence I'm surebbc.co.ukNottingham hospitals trust boss 'ashamed' over maternity data lossThe data was recovered but the the audit trail of who accessed individual records has not. 000
Ben @benquick.social · 27/09/2026Ordering a sofa is so stupid. Nobody seems to take the old one away at the time of delivery, so you just have to store multiple sofas in your house for a bit. Thankfully most normal houses are large enough for such things. Why can't companies just be good at stuff? 001
Ben @benquick.social · 27/09/2026Just seen an advert for esure, apparently they've chosen to stick with the "calm down dear" thing. It was trash when they had Michael winner doing it. It's trash now they have Lorraine Kelly (playing Lorraine Kelly, or as actual Lorraine Kelly? Only the tax department know) doing it 000

Ben @benquick.social · 24/09/2026I love that google are selling the strong points of AI on their pixel saying that it can flash a different coloured light if someone specific contacts you. I mean, phones could do that 20 years ago. But, sure 000
Ben @benquick.social · 20/09/2026There's something off about this series of Taskmaster. They seemed to promo it more than I remember for other series. And somehow it's just not landing. Can't put my finger on it 020

Ben @benquick.social · 31/08/2026I'm only 10 minutes in, but Chase & Status at Reading are pretty shit. No real stage presence, shout in to the mic so it's distorted because that's somehow better. Shout over each other. They seemed ok 15 years ago 🤷♂️ 100
