Oh, @bathnes don't take responsibility for rubbish dumped in a public place: fixmystreet.com/report/64675… Can we all dump our old appliances outside the Guildhall then?

We had two bus companies through our village to Bath on the same route. One tried to run five minutes before the other to try & poach custom from the other. So rather than a sensible half hourly service, we got a competitive hourly service. With non-compatible tickets. It’s nuts.

I’m not a big bus user but am amazed that a return ticket for one bus aren’t valid for the same return route. Apparently there are two rival companies in Bath. Nuts.

Have arrived in London, teeming, crime-infested capital of the corrupt flavour-starved island kingdom of Great Britain, on a dangerous expedition to seek out the local banker warlords who run the city and have turned it into one of the largest money laundering hubs in the world.

Hey @Vultr at what point does 50% CPU steal on a VM count as no longer transient impact on a server? We've reached 16 hours of degraded performance with the only solution offered being to take us down for 2 hours. Is that the service you want to provide?

Reupping this as I think it’s a great piece from @jamesrbuk, and the rot in the wellness industry needs more sunlight on it.

A great Irish poet and singer left us today. She was beautiful, courageous and wore her heart on her sleeve. She was before her time. Nothing will ever compare to Sinéad O’Connor. Rest easy Sinéad.
