    Elon Musk

    Nic, if I joined 'X' and my first post was ''Elon Musk is a narcissistic twat'', how long do you think my account would stay active ?

    Elon Musk

    ''Yet a 2021 study suggested the opposite. Looking at millions of tweets in seven countries – Britain, America, Canada, France, Germany, Spain and Japan – researchers found that, with the exception of Germany, Twitter algorithms amplified rightwing politicians more than the left. They also found that in America, conservative news sources were boosted more than liberal ones.''

    To call you delusional would be an insult to the deluded.
  4. There is a world of difference between a team that is 'favourite' to go down that puts up a fight but ultimately falls short with 32 points, and one that is a disorganised, incompetent, mess that rolls over for even the most mediocre of opponents and struggles to reach double figures.
  5. They take a long time to fix because you need to be thorough and methodical in restoring systems, ensuring you have correctly identified the source of the problem, and that your backup systems and data are not themselves carrying the problem. As to why any specific organisation is affected, generally it is human error that enables the 'attack' to occur; opening an email or browsing a website can seem to be innocent but in fact allow a route into the network, missing or delaying software patches leave vulnerabilities open to exploit, running out of date systems, ( there are still Windows XP systems out there, some in critical services ), or simply people failing to follow procedures and instructions, such as closing off network functions that are insecure or unnecessary. I once went on holiday whilst a new site was being added to our network. A few days after I got back we had a major outbreak that shutdown most of our systems. When we finally got things sorted, ( about 3 weeks ), the post-mortem revealed that there were 3 significant factors; the route into the network was a work laptop used by somebody at the new site being taken home and used on their home wifi where an infected family PC was being used, to save time getting the new site up and running it's network connection bypassed a firewall that the procedures specified must be in place, and to save money the anti-virus software on several new servers had been left off - leaving only Windows Defender to protect them, a decsion that was taken without my knowledge or input As Network and IT Security Manager I was not happy.
  6. Trump will do what Trump wants to do. He could quite easily dump Musk before inauguration day - he is fickle, and doesn't like others stealing his thunder.
  7. Swagman
  8. I like the Mexicans saying that the way to combat fentanyl smuggling is for the USA to do something internally to reduce demand. ( And Musk won't be directly firing any Federal employees, his role is advisory ).
  9. True, so why is it being reported so widely ?
  10. ITV news ran a story on whether many of the 'signatures' were genuine. Given that two thirds of those that voted in the GE didn't vote for Labour there are many more names that could be added to this pointless act of self-promotion by Farage - and what the fuck does it have to do with Elon Musk ?
  11. No it doesn't, as Trump is not President until the end of January. This is just Musk posturing - the guy is a narcissist. Is this any different to the Daily Heil campaigning against non-jobs ?
  12. ''To give your kids a treat.''. 😲
  13. "...only for errors to cost them" : Every fucking game.
  14. I think they can see it, but they have painted themselves into a corner and are unwilling to admit their mistakes.
  15. 4 points behind the other relegation places and 5 points from safety after 12 matches.
  16. Bugger "Sack Him Now", sack him last month.
  17. There is nothing brave about committing suicide.
  18. 31% possession FFS !
  19. Flynn Downes in the centre of defence shown up to be a spark of pure genius.
  20. People harking back to last season as a mark of success; we finished 4th, 9 points off the autos, and conceded 63 goals. Thinking next season in the Championship with RM at the helm will be better, ( or even equal to that ), is highly optimistic.
  21. Prisons
  22. Is there a possibility that Trump won on the economy and Immigration ?
