Attempted murder, or reckless endangerment?

An article about a tweet.
- Comment on Can fish and chip shops survive? ‘We made more money by closing than staying open’ 1 week ago:
Like many small businesses, the firm was paying a flat rate of 12.5% to the government, but in 2025 its accountant warned it was approaching a limit: if the business’s annual turnover exceeded £230,000, the flat rate would no longer apply. “So it was going to cost us tens of thousands of pounds.”
That’s insane that it’s not a marginal tax rate such that they only pay the increased rate on earnings over the threshold (like with income tax). If you leave the Flat Rate Scheme then you can’t rejoin for 12 months.

I had that same bottle and after going through the dishwasher a few dozen times it cracked near the bottom and now it leaks. Probably galvanic corrosion, I think aluminium is susceptible to that. I’d recommend washing it by hand. 👍

- Comment on Third of UK government’s nutrition advisors still paid by food companies including Coca Cola and Nestlé 2 weeks ago:
“All SACN members are due to meet the new interests policy within the next two years,” they added. “In the meantime, existing members with any significant interests are excluded from relevant discussions.”
But experts argue that scientists with financial ties to the food industry should not be involved in influencing policy and have called for the conflicts to be removed “immediately”.
So if you’re wondering why we’re not doing anything about it, we have; it just hasn’t come into effect yet.

- Comment on “Is anyone out There?” - HamRadio 3 weeks ago:
With the build up of fediverse, Meta, flock, Alphabet and now LG tv’s now spying on us in our own homes
I’m just curious if anyone else that is pulling away from the fediverse is also thinking about learning the Ham radio Trade also?
What’s going on with the Fediverse that makes you put it in a list with these companies?
Is this concern trolling?

Anyone can make slop. That’s the entire point of it. So why would you think that anyone is going to pay money for your slop?

- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
Nathan Cofnas, a self-defined “race realist” who argues genes play a “non-trivial role” in intelligence differences between racial groups … … His role at a Cambridge college was terminated in 2024 after backlash to his view that, under a true meritocracy, black people would “disappear from almost all high-profile positions outside of sports and entertainment”.
We live in a world where the media will hound someone to death for the mere accusation of plagiarism while racists like this get an article written about them where it’s just an aside that they are a racist piece of shit. Where is the media storm around this clown’s misconduct?

It’s hard to believe they didn’t do the market research* to recognise that the FGC is quite small compared to other genres.

- Comment on Sainsbury's pauses AI cameras after shopper ousted 1 month ago:
“Ousted” is a very strange word to use in this situation. As though “shopper” was his job title and he is being kicked out by those that want to replace him as “shopper”.
The headline has since been changed to “ejected.”
