My work (which only has 99.9% uk based clients) has an Exchange server that automatically blocks any email that isnt one of the above, plus .co.uk and .uk.com

Saves on so much spam, 1000+ per day. I think twice in 20 years we had to manually unblock a .fr and .au domain

Not everyone, but I'd bet the NSA and CIA keep copies

My bank did the same... except not really. A bunch of functions still opens in the browser, but you can only get to them via the app, not directly using just the browser.

Another option for you would just be "buy a secondhand cheap phone for banking and nothing else"

They've had Alexei Sayle and Will Self on question time, and they're both pretty Hard Left, but while they criticise corruption and current affairs, never get to suggest anything hugely radical.

Not sure if that's ever happened, but Ive certainly read my own messages over and over again for a week.

Although, IIRC, the original director general in his diary wrote "the government know they can trust us not to be truly impartial." You never get Anarchists or Communists on discussion shows.

One of the newsreaders said after leaving that they could easily find 60 economists willing to say brexit would be disastrous, and 1 saying it would be good. Come the show, they'd present one of each to demonstrate balance, but it was very lopsided. Before he went mental, they had Graham Linehan and his wife on a current affairs show to tall about the stress of getting an abortion in Ireland. The producers were then lambasted for not having a pro-abortion person on.

There's no alternative to Reddit? Wh... What am I using right now? Am I hallucinating?

There's a few places like that in Lanzarote. Pretty cool.

Everyone who wants to fly to America has to. Am curious what would happen if I ticked Yes next to "have you ever associated with communists". Do they just kick you out or is there a lengthy interrogation process first?

Honestly, no. It didn't occur to me!

 

It occurred to me that, as an adult, I feel I need a reason to invite friends over. My wife thinks this is pitiful. I invited a couple of friends over for a curry and a boardgame night - it was a fine evening - but without that reason of having a shared activity, I'd never have done it.

Jusy wondered if I'm alone in this, and if there's any men out there who DO invite male friends over with no plans or expectations for the evening?

Pic unrelated.
