We use a LOT of cloud compute which is provided by US companies.
If Trump does the unthinkable and stomps into Greenland, as part of all the retaliations that would then ensue could the US get (for example) MS or AWS to pull the plug on UK cloud services?

‘We wouldn’t still be playing if we’d got stinking rich’: the Damned celebrate 50 years of punk, goth and holy grail hunting

I still have my Twitter account though I seldom visit now.
As it’s a new year I thought I’d have a quick peek.
Bloody Hell. Won’t be going back there for a while.
It’s just full of nutters posting racist and religious shit.

With the technology that humans possess, why can’t someone make a toaster that toasts evenly?
Over the years I’ve spent from £10 to £200 on a toaster & they’ve all been rubbish.
I prefer using my grill but you have to constantly watch it as it seemingly goes from pale to charcoal in a second.

I hear Donald Trump wants to put his face on a $1 commemorative US coin.
US law states that only dead presidents can be on American money.

Consider Mexico. A thread.
Once upon a time, not even so very long ago, you would often hear from Russia's propagandists and their little helpers in the West about the "Mexico scenario".
Russia liked people to think that it only invaded its neighbours because it was forced to do so by NATO -
