    I&amp;#39;ve done it for you. I watched all the main parties politcal broadcasts. Here&amp;#39;s the summary so you don&amp;#39;t have to: Lib dems - We&amp;#39;ll fix local issues... Labour - It&amp;#39;s not our war... Cons - Let&amp;#39;s burn the planet... Reform - Starmer out... Green - We&amp;#39;re normal people... #elections #uk #ukpolitics

    Free tip for anyone thinking of booking travel with #trainline and #scotrail and wanting to take a #bicycle. DON&amp;#39;T!

With Trainline it&amp;#39;s a con.

Stalling, connection failures and unresponsive on various devices in the #Apple universe - phone, TV, laptop… #microsoft pushing updates to office tools every other day, same with #Chrome browser updates. Not seeing the same level of disruption on my #linux devices and associated tools though it could be that I’m generally more explicit and tolerant of changes there. 🤨

    One of the worst things in technology is web-conferencing. Such a false sense of engagement. Everyone present. Few listening. No-one understanding. Colocation. Everyone in the same room. It’s the only way to be efficient and effective. #agility #productivity
