I've plotted the most expensive McDonald's burger and the least expensive MacBook over time. This analysis projects that the most expensive burger will be more expensive than the cheapest laptop as soon as 2081

@toadmeister I llived this exact same scenario with @virginmedia. Problem was the address not existing in VM (though it did exist in O2). Took 4 months+countless called to resolve for the same reasons. AI and scripts are in charge of everything. Heaven help you if your scenario doesn’t fit.

After spending Christmas sick, alone and offline, Jane Hewland says her saga with British Telecom shows what happens when humans defer to systems and AI – where scripts rule and a 10-minute fix takes a month. dailysceptic.org/2026/02/22/the…

I’m the CEO of a hot dog company. I’ve worked on hot dogs for 10 years. And *I* wasn’t prepared for what I’ve just seen. Your life is about to change. So what can you do? Buy as many hot dogs as you can. Buy stock in hot dog companies.

Has anyone ever been this stupid: I've just gone to a cash machine, withdrawn £100, took my card, drove home, just to realise I didn't take my cash from the slot....
Not refunded so almost certainly taken by the next person, but what an idiot.

@RKanyok @wil_da_beast630 Wow. I’d heard that wings weren’t as cheap as they used to be due to demand but that’s crazy. We have similar situation in uk with oxtail, though. It’s gone from being almost given away to now being priced as a premium cut due to fashionability and limited supply

@MJCockerill @wil_da_beast630 In the U.S. they’re priced like chicken breasts.

@MJCockerill @wil_da_beast630 Chicken wings haven’t been cheap since Covid.

It’s not that we hate the flavours of the traditional hot cross bun. Quite the opposite: we can’t stop putting hot cross bun flavours into places they don’t belong.

Really nice piece from @KimKongKimchi founder James Read. Be sure to try his Pineapple Tepache recipe which magically transforms leftover pineapple peelings into a delicious fermented drink.
