It’s ok guys. They forgot to condemn Hamas while they were starving and seeking refuge so it’s ok.

Apologies if it’s not entirely obvious mate. But yeah, I was being sarcastic.

But it’s honestly not that far removed from what I’ve heard some people say with a completely straight face.

Those olives were probably feeding Hamas. They obviously had to destroy the enemies supply lines.

As a current iPhone owner the one thing I miss about android is how easy it was to install apps from outside the play store.

Maybe we will get a better web browser one day!

I hope they do it. And I hope It’s bad enough to push users away.

Then I my exit out of the Meta ecosystem will be complete!

What did we expect from the nasty party? Of course they support Israel’s right to bomb civilians and starve children.

Bad candidate experiences suck and Workday is the absolute worst.

In my most recent round of job hunting about six months ago, I had a pretty decent rate of getting a screening call with a recruiter at the company. Maybe around a quarter of applications got me there.

Despite my pretty decent odds of getting a call, it was never worth applying to a company with Workday.

I don’t want to sign up to their shitty candidate portal with another set of login credentials I have to manage.

I don’t want to repeat what I wrote on my CV, because their parsing is abysmal.

I don’t want to have to use a desktop because it doesn’t because feel like working on mobile that day.

I’ve had friends refer me for positions at the companies they work at. I’ve had talent acquisition reach out on LinkedIn, who’ve been professional, friendly and knowledgeable about the role and their company. But in both cases, if they ultimately needed me to create a profile in Workday I’ve told them I’m not interested.

Given how good ATS’ have become about highlighting potential good fit candidates to recruiters - there is no reason candidates should have to input anything other than their CV, basic contact info / screening questions and a cover letter (depending on role). And it should all work smoothly using a mobile device.

I’m sure this is entirely out of Meta’s concern for user privacy and not the looming EU regulations on tracking required to be opt in rather than opt out.

And because they’re heavier, there’ll be more wear and tear on the roads too.

As a Brit, I agree too. Europe is incapable of defending an allied nation within our own continent from invasion. We need to do better.

The military capability of European nations have to improve so we can guarantee our own security and be a more equal partner in NATO rather than a junior partner to the US.

The European Commision's stance on this is baffling to me. It seems like both the EU and UK motor industry would be big losers under the current arrangement.

I get the EC may not have the most favourable view of the UK right now, but does it make sense to handicap their own manufacturers for a few political brownie points?

I think it’s pretty troubling that the military may have to step in to cover what should be police matters when it’s not a matter of a national emergency.

After being a lifelong Windows user, I switched to Pop!_OS for around a year before going back to Windows 10 a few months ago.

I went back to Windows, just because a few things weren’t as plug and play as I’d hoped but started to get really annoyed with how intrusive Windows was.

After using Mint for about a month now, I don’t think I’ll go back to Windows. It just does what I want.

There are quite a few 20 mph roads near me where the only incentive to slow down is to avoid being caught be a speed camera.

The roads are wide and straight for long stretches, and going at the 20 mph limit just means you become an obstruction for the rest of traffic, even buses and lorries.

The design of the road and posted speed limits are sending mixed messages.
