      Also, this is a record fine. This is the exact opposite of significant. It actually sounds unbelievably over the top as it is. Think about all of Google's revenue, did they deserve to lose so much for something so small that likely affected no one?

            Not sure about everyone else but this part of the article made my bum twitch a little on reading:-
            "Chernobyl nuclear power plant has also had to monitor radiation levels manually after its Windows-based sensors were shut down."

                      I stopped paying attention to the Samsung fiasco, what did they do with the batteries?

                        Apparently put them into exploding fidget spinners, ha ha. (Being sarcastic here, but it sure seems legit!).

                            That's no fun. Go find something and hang upside down for a bit. (We have an inversion table, it does wonders for the neck and back!)

                                      I blame my wife, and her family. They work great for back pain and neck pain.

                                      Admittedly, I'm not sure if it'd be helpful for things like pulled muscles.

                                            @dafyre Ohhh ha... sorry not in a normal state of mind atm. . .

                                            Neck is really stiff.

                                            That's no fun. Go find something and hang upside down for a bit. (We have an inversion table, it does wonders for the neck and back!)

                                            I actually didn't know this was a thing. My back is killing me too. Hmmm

                                            I blame my wife, and her family. They work great for back pain and neck pain.

                                            Admittedly, I'm not sure if it'd be helpful for things like pulled muscles.

                                            If I pulled a muscle rolling over in bed then I'll just start planning my funeral now

                                            You are now officially old.

                                            I don't think this actually happened, but that may just be because I won't accept it
