FOMO, Fear Of Missing Out. Apparently it’s a social media inspired condition that people suffer from.
I know, there is no hope for the future of mankind.
Brexit, for once some facts.

Many companies insist you have a Facebook page to help promote their product you cant say no, and if you do then you're out the door all part of the contract you've signed.
Good news - in a minor sense.
How about a gaol sentence as well? This is just a minor inconvenience and slight embarrassment (if he is capable of that feeling).

Whilst I really would like to see the end of facebook, I am realistic enough to know it ain’t going to happen in the next few months!
But, I really would like to see some real progress in the fundamental approach so many companies have towards their web presence.
For example, companies should at least buy a domain. Have an email address on that domain. (Many don’t even realise that there could be an issue with ISP-domain email addresses.) Have a website, even if one page. Even if it doesn’t do much beyond redirecting to facebook.
Accepting they will also want facebook presence, some way of linking a non-facebook website and their facebook existence could be very helpful. For example, a linkage such that changes they make to facebook get reflected on their non-facebook website – and vice versa.
This would allow access to them by facebook refuseniks (like me). And resilience if ever they are in dispute with facebook and get thrown off for some violation (real or imagined). Or facebook quits the EU.
There's a way you can view Facebook pages without having to sign up (cant remember offhand how) which I've used in the past, but sign up myself ... no thanks.
I honestly don’t know. I think Labour are more electable today than they were at the time of the GE.
Have they not spent a fortune buying a fleet of low orbit satellites to implement a UK GPS?

I know there are techniques - but I want it to be natural, you look up company on a search engine and go to their site - even if that is a window onto facebook.
They were electable enough for me to vote for them. (Largely because PC didn't stand a hope of getting in and I'd hate to have voted for them and by so doing let the tory in.)
They wouldn't be the only idiot company I've told to get stuffed. As I said to one, "Thank you for letting me know you aren't a company I'd want to work for".
For the one I did go to instead, in four years I halved the staff and multiplied the turnover to ten times that when I joined.

That's what I meant by "dirty beasts". FOMO makes them get mixed up in dogging and the like.

Well it's never too late to start (one of my running routes through some innocent looking shire woodland goes through a patch with large amounts of discarded female underwear)Oh heck, something else I've missed out on!

But it seems next to impossible to have a GPS system that cannot be spoofed or jammed.
Students being told in the first week of term not to socialise, vist pubs, parties or restaurants and already survive for a fortnight on pot noodles - why am i not surprised, it's like like watching a rush hour car crash.
Good for you flecc, efficiency make the wheels turn smoother. On Facebook I was referring to viewing the pages of an individual rather than a business, the law when trying to track a villain always turn to social media first to gain intelligence on someone. It always amazes me when somebody nicks a car or bike then go online to try and shift it, might as well stand on a street corner and stop passers by.
What people are being asked to do isn’t a big sacrifice, but under 40s have generally shown themselves to be weak.
I’m pleased with Sunak’s latest measures. The old Furlough scheme was a payment to do a job for the country. That job was to stay at home and not spread the disease. Instead the under 40s treated it like a big bank holiday and were $hitting in spent burger boxes on crowded beaches.
They have now ****** themselves. These latest restrictions could have been avoided by taking very simple measures, but they just couldn’t do it. And now they are paying the price.
Property rents are going through the roof at the moment. I re-let a property during July and easily got an extra 15%. Once again it’s under 40s who are paying because of their weakness.
