Tesla is also using a new type of inch. 5'8" used to be 172.72cm but the new improved Tesla Inch is 2.63cm, meaning 5'8" is now 178.8cm

Experts: No need to worry about Europe's navigation sats going dark for days. Also: What the hell is going on with those satellites?!

Crypto-Time-Ransom

It could be a ransomware infection in Italy, hence the embarrassing silence. They really ought to stump up the bitcoin quickly because the price apparently goes up after a while.

Sysadmin told to spend 20+ hours changing user names, for no reason

Spoon Monkey

There are good places to work, this is not one of them.

Find another Job, and when you resign, make it crystal clear that it is entirely because the 2IC is not a reasonable person.

Marathon Bar

Too bright, too white, have to scroll much more, The main picture is too big, I find it harder to scan the headlines. I liked having the top section with the most important stories and then below just having them by age (although I struggle to understand why the exchange 2010 rollup 8 story was not there. That borked my mailserver and I am still picking up the pieces!)

It just seems a bit marathon bar and/or ain't broke don't fix it to me. Same content but why do it?

Vote now for the ultimate bacon sandwich

Spoon Monkey

Dodgy voting

Each bacon based submission would likely have at least one vote, ie that of the one who submitted it, however there seem to be a strange lack of votes overall. I count only 36 votes amongst 26 candidates so far. Is this going to be a florida style election, with hordes of votes discarded? I recommend that that the A90 Behemoth be investigated for vote fraud!

OLYMPIC SECRETS to stay locked up for 15 YEARS

Is it all on one line with a 3846 double decker bus long line? Perhaps it is printed on A4 Sheets of paper and 3846 double decker busses long, and if so is the paper arranged lengthways or side by side?
