Top stories only.
Yep, Top Stories only is shite, I've complained 3 times about it. And I thought it was only me and my paranoia. Why is this crap forced on us? I won't accept it and will be off.
I did create a new account and normal FB behaviour was restored. Except I can't be arsed to do that all the time. So begone, FB, unless you revert.

I've given up with Adobe, I won't even bother to mention their non-existent support for paid for and fully licensed products. Apart from that brief mention, of course.

Crisp packets are essential
Oh, just shove your passport inside a packet of crisps and be done with it all. Preferably eat the crisps first.
And Fuzz, RFID readers are faster than barcode or optical scanners, assuming they're the technologies you refer to. Could be crap software in the middle though, or the back-office servers. Or the comms load. Oh, I could go on.
