not a bad choice

2018-03-22 14:28:32 UTC  

The wiki says UK police don't carry firearms and that only specially trained firearms officers carry weapons (which is obviously not regular police duty they seem to imply)

2018-03-22 14:28:52 UTC  

meanwhile, the taxpayer-funded media report it thusly:

2018-03-22 14:29:34 UTC  

"Is it a Glock 22?"

"no, it's a .40 calibre Smith and Wesson!"

2018-03-22 14:29:38 UTC  

Gotta prepare for the crackdown on shitposters.

yes normal Police only have batons

IF the situation is BAD they send SMG armed, basically Army

it's 1 or 11

>Gold Coast council in Australia, where next month's Commonwealth Games are hosted, will use a new city WiFi service to harvest Facebook data from visitors.

Presumably if your facebook profile is set to public or something. I can't get much info from that page though

2018-03-22 14:34:16 UTC  

this, however

2018-03-22 14:34:18 UTC  

`It spent $5m to build its own infrastructure for the Games due to concerns about the speed and rollout of the national broadband network.`

2018-03-22 14:34:20 UTC  

is correct

I'm happy for them to mine my facebook. I've been shit posting for 15 years

try and find anything useful

from that data you over-educated cuck

2018-03-22 14:35:21 UTC  

But then, what's the point? Cambridge Analytica already has your data.

it's useless

2018-03-22 14:35:39 UTC  

"Soylent News" ?

2018-03-22 14:35:48 UTC  

It's the successor of Slashdot.

2018-03-22 14:36:51 UTC  

🀷

2018-03-22 14:37:21 UTC  

oh god, the Commonwealth games is less than two weeks away.

2018-03-22 14:37:23 UTC  

Imagine telling your police they are "illegally training"

2018-03-22 14:37:26 UTC  

what a fun time that'll be.

2018-03-22 14:37:50 UTC  

Meanwhile-meanwhile..

2018-03-22 14:38:09 UTC  

The state of the glorious British Commonwealth, ladies and gents

2018-03-22 14:38:16 UTC  

Were you guys not born during the golden years of Slashdot?

"DO NOT FLEE YOUR COUNTRY WHILST REPRESENTING YOUR COUNTRY"

2018-03-22 14:38:51 UTC  

@DanielKO I'd never heard of it

2018-03-22 14:39:10 UTC  

Not a tech or nerd guy, I presume.

2018-03-22 14:39:27 UTC  

Back in the day, websites would get "slashdotted."

2018-03-22 14:39:39 UTC  

It was one of the biggest (unintentional) DDoS sites.

2018-03-22 14:40:33 UTC  

Half and half, not the "tech" part though.
I just never really cared about keeping up to date with all that kind of news, I usually just spoke to my friends about it and got the information about that sort of thing by word of mouth
