Re: Thales announces Eu-72 tank
Eh? WTF are you on about?
Thales don't make tanks, they're mainly a defence electronics company

UK’s Education Committee: Social media ban a must to save children’s mental health
Gemini accused of 30,000-line code purge and fake recovery report
Thursday 21st May 2026 17:02 GMT 
I know EXACTLY what happened here...
The dev rolled out a change without checking it first. Don't say " I asked it not to" it's a fucking guessing machine, nothing else.
Then you used the thing that broke it in the first place, to try and unfuck the fuck up. And surprise! It double fucked up.
My guess is the idiot that ran this was to incompetent to perform an actual roll back, probably because they were to stupid to actually have something to roll back to, and had no idea how to unfuck the fuckery, because they had no idea what it actually did in the first place.
Ooo car analogy time.
It's like asking a blind person to drive your car and when they smash it into a line of traffic, then asking them to drive out of the burning inferno, back to safety, only to be surprised when they smash into another line of traffic coming the other way.

"infrared beams that are harder to intercept or jam while also supporting significantly higher throughput."
Hope its better than the one we had back in the early 2000's between two buildings
It constantly failed in the morning and evening. I remember sitting up on the roof top at 6am one morning to see why it failed. Then it quickly "dawned" on us. The sun was rising right behind the other ends dish.
The random outages were also soon spotted. Pigeons that discovered the transmitter was a nice place to keep their feet warm on cold winter days.
Backup script ingested an accidental asterisk and deleted everything
Monday 18th May 2026 17:07 GMT
Re: Intelligence
Where as current AI would go "What a great script. You're so clever, I'll delete everything for you right away. In fact I know you are so intelligent, you probably want me to wipe the BIOS as well, so I'll make sure that is done as well. No need to press OK as I've done that for you, because a genius like you can't make a mistake."

Lawsuit brought by former store operators missing from Vodafone results
Tuesday 12th May 2026 15:51 GMT
If you read into this...
... Vodafone put themselves into "Yet another scumbag company".
They set people up in franchises with a set amount of commission, so the people taking on all the risk knew where they stood. A few years later they massively cut this commission AND introduced penalties for the most minor things.
I really hope they get absolutely screwed over.

Britain pays Starlink millions despite Musk's calls to overthrow UK government
Tuesday 12th May 2026 10:59 GMT
The issue is...
..what other option is there?
There is this "Stop using US immediately" mentality, which is a far detached from reality as all the tech bros are.
Even if there 100% commitment to removing all US tech, it's going to take years, if not decades to do.
This doesn't mean don't try, it does mean be realistic.
There are quick kills, stop using Twitter, make all government documentation open formats, do web hosting in your own country.
Short term, increase your industrial base to make the equipment we need, start using European/ local payment systems, move governments away from US tech where practical..
Then just keep going from there.
Sovereign cloud is only possible if you’re Chinese or American: Gartner
Monday 11th May 2026 17:03 GMT
Really?
"The analyst doesn’t think attempts to create sovereign clouds will succeed. ..."
He goes on to vote previous examples.
The big difference now is Trump.
Due to his antics and "America Only" attitude (and to some extent Bidens dithering about arms yo Ukraine) the rest of the Western world that was complacent before, is suddenly waking up. All of a sudden there is a huge increase in getting off US, well everything.
Europe's arms industry have sky rocketed (along with South Korea), the European payment system to replace Visa and MasterCard is making good progress and countries are making large steps to get off US tech.
