A divorce is a certification, isn't it?

David Lammy is facing possible legal action over a plan to invite staff from the oil firm Shell and the defence firm BAE Systems to work inside the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office.

The scheme, which was first mooted by Lammy in March, is supposed to embed FCDO staff in firms to gain commercial experience while inviting private-sector staff to take placements in government.

"In Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Terminator, the robots become self-aware and take over the world," Burke's study begins. "In this paper, we take a first step in that direction..."

Gee, thanks for taking that first step towards murder bots and the annihilation of humankind. Great job👌

He's planning out where to build the new McDonalds concession

We Love New Zealand Sado-Masochism is the only other possible meaning. I shall not be taking further questions.

Dragon 32! A proper, Welsh machine

It's not just new series, the subtitles have been ridiculously bad for around a year in my estimation. There have been 'AI' tools for machine transcription for at least half a decade now, and the errors in Crunchyroll subtitles are consistent with my experience of using machine transcription tools in my work. It's insultingly bad.

Great way to start!

I just bought the OST having previously owned it on cassette in the '90s. I had no idea it was getting a re-release.

The proper way for government to 'urge' businesses is by passing legislation and then prosecuting companies that fail to meet that legislation. Sounds like these MPs don't want to prosecute big businesses for failing to meet the standards set out in law.
