If we're going to do alternate history fanfiction can't we do something interesting. I'm going to imagine the Soviets just kept going after Berlin and the world is now full communism.

Just had a coworker say that the reason public services are bad was because they're not run like businesses. When I pointed out they've got worse the more they're privatised she blamed 'bureaucrats'.

Breath Ray posted:Tell him 9 out of 10 businesses fail in their first year Her, and I did. Apparently the problem with failing businesses/services is that they put the cleaner in charge because they know them. EDIT: Also, she brought up a local school that was run by an ex-barclays exec, and then refused to tell me which one.

Paxman posted:I'm not sure what the second part of this post means, but my claim that "most of Labour's policies cited here are pretty much the same as they were before Corbyn became leader" is based on looking at the policies cited in the post I quoted and comparing them to the policies before Corbyn became leader, ie when Ed Miliband was leader. Why don't you just compare it to Miliband's manifesto instead of a bunch of random quotes and articles? That seems fairer.

Firos posted:At uni the password for our router was doorcuplightshit. According to a random website I just looked at it would take 35 thousand years to crack. It also has the added benefit of being really easy to remember even 6 years later. I still maintain these are the best passwords for ease of memorisation and difficulty to crack. Except password crackers are now targeting strings of common words. Having 'poo poo' in there means you're probably okay though.
