Now that’s a phone case I could get behind.

And before posting, I got curious and of course someone has actually done it… https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1510193079/ziggy-handlink-quantum-leap-phone-case?show_sold_out_detail=1&ref=nla_listing_details

I did wonder if that might prove to be the answer, glad it wasn’t! 😁

Funnily enough, I would refer to a department as “it” rather than “they” 😁

Ah ok, didn’t know that. And yeah, the numbers just don’t make sense at all! 😁

No, VAT is 20% (except maybe on a few very specific products)

Can’t speak for this specific instance of course, but in the UK you occasionally get people flying messages over football ⚽ grounds or whatever, and I have read more than once that the company doing the flying don’t actually know what message they are pulling - they just get the packaged up message and fly it where the customer asks them to.

Don’t know if that’s true, though and it’s arguable whether that absolves them completely of responsibility for the message being shown.

EDIT - that being said, the first example I found contradicts me - here, the message was known by everyone, including the pilot!

EDIT 2 - a particularly nasty example here, where someone mentions banners not being checked. They definitely should have been.

“Due to the nature of the activity, banners are not checked before take-off and the content is at the operator’s discretion.”

That ad thing is weird, I’ve not seen anything like that at all. In fact I don’t even see video ads. Where is this, in your feed? Or when you open a thread?

I wonder if it’s to do with how the feed is set up? I use Small Cards view, don’t know if that’s maybe preventing me seeing the ads in the first place? I do sometimes see small static ads at the top of a thread, but that’s all.

I still use Sync every day, and I can’t think of any issues I’ve had with it. What sort of bugs do you mean?

I’m still using Sync (for Lemmy) but I’ll need to check Voyager out, since it seems Sync is now abandoned.

Can I fly in and then fly home again immediately? If so, sure. Otherwise, no.

Always enjoy those videos from Japan of 100 (or more) school kids playing football ⚽ against a handful of professionals.

Eg: https://youtu.be/MYFcTWKcuQM

Another one, this time from Germany: https://youtu.be/iEOKI2jeETM

Already commented on this, but thought of some more:

Isley Brothers: Ohio/Machine Gun - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XC6qOvfgDJI (this is a cover of 2 tunes, the first by Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young, the second by Jimi Hendrix)

And just released today (like, 2 hours ago) - Massive Attack, Tom Waits - Boots on the Ground: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-57FrioeuE

I’ve not used it for this purpose, but the (excellent) Photo Editor has a batch edit function and removing metadata appears to be an option:

Ah yeah, that would have been a better choice actually, good shout.

A few suggestions:

• Bob Dylan - A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall
• RATM - Bulls on Parade
• Dead Kennedys - Kill the Poor

And for a more optimistic, but still defiant take, R.E.M.'s Living Well is the Best Revenge.

David Lynch. His death hit me like a punch to the heart.

Also Adam Yauch (MCA).

My country did qualify (Scotland) so I’ll be up for a few VERY late sessions in the pub (our first game kicks off at 2am our time!) 😁🍻😴

Yep. And we’ve managed to draw 2 of the 3 teams we played in that tournament (Brazil and Morocco) - what are the chances?! 🙄

Claaaaaaaaaammmmmmmp!

Clamp!
