@deathtospinach Your post brought back the memory of a Ted Talk I listened to a while back…ted.com/talks/james_ve…

My beloved, Zeltinis, told me I would have to pay £3k for him to be able to leave his oil rig to come and visit me I therefore decided to visit him instead, but he has been very resistant to it He’s presumably just worried for my safety, which makes me love him even more ❤️

Today announced: @IBM #Power10 provides significant values - #Performance #Stability #AI at the core #Security #Flexibility - now available at midrange and scale-out formats Check out the webinar July 14: event.on24.com/wcc/r/3625928/… @MargaGomezMoren @JayWDiamond @andrea_corbelli

@D_Spurway @easyJet ….and thank you for entertaining and very informative sessions. Always a pleasure! (Glad the journey back was better)

Well, the journey back was a whole load better than the way out, with @easyJet managing to get us back a little earlier than expected. And #Montpellier was lovely. @JayWDiamond's event was also great fun and productive. Great to be back, answering questions and helping!

Today, we celebrate the completion of the Mayflower Autonomous Ship’s voyage from Plymouth, UK to Halifax, Nova Scotia. With no human captain or onboard crew, MAS is the first nautical vessel to complete an unmanned voyage across the Atlantic. Learn more: ibm.co/3xoQmy1

@DuncanRatcliff3 @RyanPHoey @manairport 21st April at 3am the queues for check in were getting long but security was fine. Media not helping (look at all the media companies wanting to use this video) and this is causing people to join queues far too early for their flights and creating congestion.

@RyanPHoey @manairport Was fine at 3am? Mrs was straight through in less than ½hr at T3.

Queue for security at @manairport now stretching outside the Terminal building. As a regular user of the airport, I could describe my experiences as of late, but I usually refrain from swearing on Twitter.

New recruit at IBM on the best operating system? Answer: AIX 7.3, so there you have it!

@andysc Basically a cube, I think that is enough to describe them - no new words required

Yay! Just shipped my 200th #GlowOrb. The lucky recipient got theirs free! :)

Don’t miss out! Make sure you register for the IBM Virtual Technical University at the end of October. There will be all the usual amazing experts to keep you up to date and of course, loads on the new Power10 servers. cvent.me/GzYBLa?sms=7&c…

@sean_f @Rustiqueyork @BillyBobParlour Concerns me that you made Oscar go first on the rickety bridge! 😉

Lovely day out in the sunshine ☀️ >Favourite restaurant in #York @Rustiqueyork followed by a walk around Pateley Bridge and then the best ice creams at @BillyBobParlour near #Skipton

@sean_f Did you collaborate with Ivan on the stepping stones? I spy a touch of Dawlish there. Anyway, quintessentially English and lovely with it!

Spring project coming to fruition…

@sean_f @IBM Sean TV - for those that like Roald Dhal

Tough at times working for Big Blue in the clouds! 😀 Hiring new recruits into our IBMTechnology Garage from the garden. Even with comedy blue shades! @ibm

IBM's first quantum computer outside of the US has just gone live zd.net/3voBH1n via @ZDNet & @daphneleprinceT

This is a fantastic feat. Not just the engineering but the logistics also. I wonder what Aliens will think when they land on Mars and find our vehicles randomly scattered across the surface. #LifeonMars

@garyrwilson Interesting when people make statements like this it often reflects their own behaviour.

He really has no idea at all, does he?

This is an interesting debate but there seems to be an assumption that everybody carries/has a smart phone. Digital vaccine passports must not put everyday rights at risk - warn IT experts bcs.org/content-hub/di…

It is great when two giants who may have traditionally been seen as competitors (even though this is not the case) can come together and create exciting technology. Looking forward to seeing what comes out of this.

@garyrwilson OMG - I can’t believe it, I had my vaccination on Tuesday and that evening I burnt my wrist on the oven tray, we need to stop the vaccinations immediately and have a two week study to see if the vaccine caused this onset of burns

I had my vaccination today, and this evening I burned my hand on a pan whilst cooking dinner. Coincidence? I think not.

@garyrwilson Bad enough that you never wanted the email in the first place but you cannot just block delete all the crap that follows because nestling between the 100 or so PLEASE STOP SENDING.... emails are a few you really do want to read!

Ah, so it's THAT time of year. You know, the one where a couple of people mistakenly REPLY TO ALL on an email with a large contact list, then everybody spends the rest of the day deleting "PLEASE REMOVE ME FROM THIS EMAIL CHAIN" email from people who have also REPLIED TO ALL. 🙄

@mandieq @tgau @googlechrome @SlackHQ If you mean that the fan starts to run so fast it lifts from the desk I get this often - at that point I need to apply ear buds! My mac usually complains about lack of storage lack of memory or just stops doing anything. This usually happens when I am about to join a Webex!

@tgau @JayWDiamond @googlechrome @SlackHQ The key symptom was my laptop threatening to propel itself into space. 🚀Similarly, isn't a memory problem. I've now got chrome closed, firefox running and all is calm and quiet. Ahhh. At least until Slack gets crazy again...

Argh! It was @googlechrome killing my mac's CPU yesterday and today the @SlackHQ app has decided to join in and hog CPU / completely freeze. Could really do without this today.... 😠😟😠😣

@mandieq @googlechrome @SlackHQ You need to look at the memory also - spinning beachball seems to be caused by lack of any resource

@JayWDiamond @googlechrome @SlackHQ I can blame the app when the task manager shows that app using the CPU. 😀
