Hermes is just so tediously bad. Rebranding is futile when your service has such a distinctive stink that it’s recognisable under any guise

My current dream is to build a profitable company with 10 people and keep the number there.

@ChevyRay Damn

@ChevyRay My second potentially useless punt is the section on font file criteria here https://t.co/Ul7FV5Zlwo

You know what really grinds my gears? Induction hobs. The lack of heat control. The barely functioning user interface. The cooking equivalent of an Android phone from 2008 while also being in 2008

@BernardMcCarty @bbcnickrobinson The UK state under Tory gov will always be too hellbent on private profit to achieve this

@millsustwo I guess the biggest companies can afford to research/experiment in absence of raw vision- maybe they’re just running into walls like an untrained roomba

[Pete Barnett @petebarnett]

@millsustwo It’s kinda lucky that these companies grind to a halt with inefficiency at that scale. Gives the little guys a chance. The ciiiircle of liiife

@gem_abbott This story is wild. What is their ultimate goal? To asset strip the NT?

How did that happen?!

Well, the answer has something to do with this 3 million year old pebble...

Notice the lighter red drips flowing upwards

[Pete Barnett @petebarnett]

@millsustwo At least it’s a quick flag for untrustworthiness

[Chris Bryant @RhonddaBryant]

Look, it’s unsustainable. The government isn’t functioning. And people are struggling financially. It’s time for a clear out.
