@KnightUK007 @RyanceyReturns They didn't copy it, we gave them it.

@RyanceyReturns Yes, you were able to copy the British Harrier jump jet which started service in 1967. Vertical Take Off Landing VTOL Now… if you could return the favour by invading our country and removing our Prime Minister and entire corrupt government that would be appreciated

🇺🇸 WAIT — YOU’RE TELLING ME A $100 MILLION STEALTH JET CAN LAND LIKE A HELICOPTER?! 😱🔥 America’s F-35B Lightning II just dropped out of the sky and hovered to a perfect vertical landing — no runway, no joke. Vertical takeoff & landing. Full stealth mode. Built by American hands, flown by United States Marines, and straight-up terrifying to anyone who even thinks about messing with us. This isn’t CGI. This isn’t some other country’s tech. This is pure U.S. dominance redefining air combat while the rest of the world watches in awe. No other nation touches it. Proud to be American yet? Or does this make you want to stand up and cheer even louder? Drop your 🔥 in the comments — let’s hear it for the greatest fighting force the world has ever seen! 💪✈️🇺🇸

@RyanceyReturns "Isn't some other countries tech" err yeah, the VTOL is.

@Florianplatau @levelsio Yes, let's blame PHP for putting all the code in one file and for zero proper dev practices.

@levelsio No 1 reason why I never use PHP

CLAUDEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

@FPMarcil @markgadala 2030 is what we have been told by suppliers.

@markgadala Demand is good, and RAM prices will come back down in a few years. As usual, they will crash themselves into an oversupply situation.

This is why 64GB of RAM is $1000 x.com/shitpost_2049/…

@virustotal Further raises the question of why @AVGFree uses data from @virustotal when it can't be trusted. So they are actively telling users that a website is dangerous and can't be trusted, without any firm data to back that up. Dodgy sounding ground to me.

Why are you using data from Phishing.Database @virustotal ? It's a dumpster fire of data with no veracity at all. They've listed the whole of AWS S3, Docusign and others. Clearly not reputable data at all.

@tomvanmechgelen @troyhunt @haveibeenpwned @Cloudflare At least it wasn't as long as they take to answer support requests properly. There wouldn't be a lot of work getting done by people for the next few weeks.

@troyhunt @haveibeenpwned @Cloudflare The cloudflare outage wasn't that short. Was several hours for all sites proxy through cloudflare from Belgium.

We had some (extraordinarily rare!) outage today on @haveibeenpwned due to an issue at @Cloudflare. Everything was fine by the time I got up in Aus and it doesn't appear to have been too long for us (no tickets or complaints I've seen), stay tuned for more from them later.

@CrazyVibes_1 One of my male Scouts crochets, he did a presentation on it to the troop the other week.

The school counselor called me in last Tuesday because my son was crocheting during lunch instead of playing basketball. She had this concerned look, the one that says "we need to talk about your child's social development," and I knew exactly where this was going. He's been with me for eight months now, my adopted son, and apparently spending his free time making potholders instead of throwing balls is some kind of red flag. I wanted to scream at her that for fifteen years in the system, he learned to hide every single thing that made him happy because someone always had an opinion. But I just sat there, hands folded, while she suggested "more masculine activities" like sports or coding club. When I got home, he was at the dining room table surrounded by yellow and burgundy circles, his fingers moving so fast with that hook I could barely track the stitches. He'd been watching tutorials again, the grandmother from Kansas who teaches traditional patterns, and he'd made eight trivets without me even noticing. "Teacher said I'm weird," he told me without looking up. "Said crochet is for girls." So I did what any reasonable mom would do. I bought him better hooks and gorgeous cotton yarn from a maker on the online app who sent a note saying "create fearlessly," and I took this photo. Posted it everywhere with a caption that basically said crochet has no sex and people can keep their opinions to themselves. The response was insane. Other parents messaging me about their sons who secretly cross stitch, their daughters who weld, all these kids hiding their passions because someone decided what belongs to who. Now he's talking about opening his own shop on the online app, selling his work and keeping the money for art supplies. Last night he looked at me and said, "Thanks for not making me normal, Mom." I'm not crying, you're crying.

@KinkyContango @eepyware Really not

@eepyware It's called a DDOS attack

Sooo. Apparently. Cloudflares outage was caused by a single oversized configuration file used for bots and threat related blocks. The file which auto generates from live threat intel, grew far beyond expected size. When the system reloaded it during routine opss, the bot management service crashed, triggering 500 errors across the global CDN. Surprisingly, it apparently was not a DNS issue (color me surprised). Just one config file that got too big and took down the interwebs for hrs.

@Cloudflare Yeah, even calling @Cloudflare / @CloudflareHelp out on X doesn't work now for support either. Come on, it shouldn't be this hard for partners.

Ugh, can't believe I've had to log back in to X to try and get support from @Cloudflare again. Shouldn't have to do this. We are a partner, referring me to the feature list for plans does not help when I've told you the feature should be available on this plan but we get an error

@Dr_Bekka_UK @Anthony67641209 Let's call it what it is, UC subsidises companies that refuse to pay a proper wage that is liveable.

@Anthony67641209 Yes. Half of people on Universal Credit work. Universal Credit tops up low wage workers who are being paid a low wage. And PIP isn't an out of work benefit. It pays for the extra costs or being disabled.

Why are people furious about disabled people’s Motability cars (which if cut would save just £1bn. Peanuts.) but not billionaires dodging up to £90bn in tax every year? These cars mean independence, work, and dignity.

"I believe this information should be sufficient to address the issue at hand" No. It is not. You've not read the issue at all.

@jamieoliver "I love tinned pineapple, those retro tastes. It reminds me of my Nan" G: "well I hope he didn't eat his Nan!" G: "Jamie Oliver, arrested for eating Nan. Tastes like pineapple"

@TheChrisHooley @dhh Spend way more? Yeah, okay.

@dhh Off you pop then to self host and spend waaay more more, have waaay less agility and scalability. I'll stay cloud based and chill out whilst admiring the beauty that is the cloud whilst its you in your vandalized server rooms ;-)

We've undermined, if not vandalized, the beauty of the internet by centralizing so much with the cloud. But it's never too late to fix that mistake.

@AndySmi59911209 @BladeoftheS Except the veil of limited liability can be lifted in many situations, it isn't absolute.

@BladeoftheS I agree with the sentiment, Blade, but it’s PPE Medpro LIMITED. Limited as in “limited liability”. What she morally should do versus what the law says she personally must do are separate things.

This ruling is a joke. PPE Medpro will go bankrupt and the Government won't get a penny. Michelle Mone should have to pay the £122m personally. RT if you want to see her pay it all back.

Have a word with @NatWestGroup please @NCSC. Their app resets the login/registration process when you swap out of it to lookup password digits in a password manager, meaning people will pick weak passwords that they can remember.

@Scoutsscarter I shall be there :)

Want to brush up on your comms skills then get some training sorted. The next event is being held in Sheffield on the 29th November. Book your place here. All welcome scouts.org.uk/events/2025/no…

Come on @Vitality_UK, do better. Your system won't accept photo upload from iPhone as it puts extension as .jpeg not .jpg - try harder, a lot harder.
