"Have you seen the colour of our passports?"

Wasn’t it Poland?

Well whoever makes them, they're shit

[-] Tja@programming.dev 3 points 9 months ago

Probably made by a French company (Thales) in Poland (Gdańsk, IIRC).

[-] fox2263@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

Thales, purveyors of ships, missiles and passports?

[-] Tja@programming.dev 2 points 9 months ago

And trains, and radar systems, and SIM cards...

[-] fox2263@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

The French Samsung.

Do they make mobiles and laptops?

[-] awwwyissss@lemm.ee 19 points 9 months ago

The "benefit" of Brexit is that Europe is more divided and easier for the Kremlin to attack.

[-] sirico@feddit.uk 18 points 9 months ago

Money for the hedge funds

[-] skozzii@lemmy.ca 13 points 9 months ago

Not a brit, but are they still being stubborn and pretending they didn't get tricked by Russia?

[-] Fudoshin@feddit.uk 11 points 9 months ago

I believe they still refuse to release the report on Russian interference - so yes.

"It'll stop all of those brown people from coming over and most assuredly save us LOADS of money instead of us constantly having to support the rest of those other silly EU countries." ~ Some Boomer Brit, probably, circa 2019

[-] Wodge@lemmy.world 19 points 9 months ago

Unfortunately, that's my dad.

The idiot claimed he didn't know anyone that Brexit would affect. Totally forgot his eldest son is living in central Europe.

What a melt my old man is.

There was a bloke at work who pretty much said that. And that he wants gold top milk back...

It's sort of backfired for idiots like that. The care homes and hospitals in my area now have a wider diversity of staff, the people these idiots don't like the look of. Brexit restricted the supply of the people they like the look of.

[-] Alteon@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

It's just so pathetic that we are living in the 2020's and the color of a person's skin is still such a issue for so many people.

Change is so painfully slow. I really feel that it will take the boomer generation dying out before any meaningful progress is made.

[-] Digestive_Biscuit@feddit.uk 2 points 9 months ago

A lot of it is cultural and does/will get better in time. But there's always going to be pockets of these people unfortunately. My wife is from Asia and sadly the verbal racism is mostly from young people. I guess they just find it funny amongst their friends.

[-] fox2263@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

And still no gold milk I presume.

[-] HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works 3 points 9 months ago

And that he wants gold top milk back…

Hi, filthy foreigner here!
What's gold top milk?

[-] Digestive_Biscuit@feddit.uk 3 points 9 months ago

Different colour tops for different types of milk. Gold top (cap) was the full fat milk which had cream on the top. Whether it's true or not I don't know but he said the EU banned it because of it's high fat content.

[-] HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works 3 points 9 months ago

Much obliged.

[-] Manzas 2 points 9 months ago

Not a leaver ,but European it sucked importing the hotend from e3d meanwhile getting g10 from Germany easier than local online stores except that the site was in German

[-] Fudoshin@feddit.uk 1 points 9 months ago

Are you talking about 3D printers?

[-] Manzas 2 points 9 months ago

Yes but you have to import every item you buy

[-] Fudoshin@feddit.uk 1 points 9 months ago

AliExpress. It's where I got my Ender from

[-] Manzas 1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Got fed up about shipping time and my printing bed was really bent and I am printing PETG and don't want to use glue sticks

Well you see, Brexit provides us with many amazing benefits! We are committed to not only making the most of its benefits for the people, but also enriching businesses to do the same!

It is a great privilege to lead everyone through this most opportunistic time!
