Thats probably the biggest objective I have to the whole British food bad thing. I don't mind it from the French (or any of the other countries with amazing food) but coming from the country that gave the world spray on cheese in a can, it's pretty rich.

British food is fine and is like 40% of everything you eat, but we did the thing where if it was good it got to be "normal food" in our culture and only the bad or divisive stuff gets to be counted as "british food" because it's stuff we don't also typically eat. Like who's calling a sandwich or apple pie "british food" compared to a jellied eel?

Clarifying question: is “inside or outside spoon” a less uh, gender normative / more size conscious way of saying “big or little spoon?”

I’m not being sarcastic or anything, just never heard this phrase before

I am an ESL, to be honest I just used the words that I thought would be descriptive.

In my mind, the outside spoon sees the other person's back of the head. Hth :)

This is a difficult question to answer one way or the other because on the one hand, due to colonization, the UK has a great concentration of tasty food from all over the world, but on the other hand, I worked with a guy whose girlfriend, after we offered her a taste of our thai takeaway, told us she didn't eat anything spicy, including anything with garlic or black pepper in it..........................................................................

MOSCOW (Reuters) - A human-like robot designed to look and act like a female clerk has started providing services to the public at a government office in Siberia.

The humanoid, with long blond hair and brown eyes, is serving customers in Perm, a city 1,100 km (680 miles) east of Moscow.

probably some sort of API bug where people can send out tweets without compromising individual accounts. last time something like this happened i think it was something like SMS tweets.

Not really, as a scammer you can skip the three pinocchios out of seven fact checks crowd for a purely financial reason, just like fake content mills eventually did in 2016. It simply isn't cost-effective

Fair point. Obama, Gates and Musk are also #1, #22, and #41 respectively for the accounts with the most Twitter followers globally so they're some prime targets. Kanye and Wendy's aren't even in the top 50 though. Who knows what their motivation for targets was then :shrug:

Two sources close to or inside the underground hacking community provided Motherboard with screenshots of an internal panel they claim is used by Twitter workers to interact with user accounts. One source said the Twitter panel was also used to change ownership of some so-called OG accounts—accounts that have a handle consisting of only one or two characters—as well as facilitating the tweeting of the cryptocurrency scams from the high profile accounts.
