Whoops, lost my pinned tweet in a mass delete/purge. Anyway, here's how I make bread. It's dead easy. If I can pull it off, so can you.

Also, Apple hasn't banned third-party cloud services from its app store, which would be anti-competitive. Also, Google does the same thing, ie restrict device backups to its own cloud. So I don't know why Which? hasn't included Google in this rather quixotic action.

tbh a good outcome that would allow both parties to claim they "won" would be for Apple to lift its free tier to 15GB rather than 5GB, which would match Google.

Anyone following @AuthorSHarvey : there’s reason this is not the admired Booker-winning novelist published by @JonathanCape but an impostor. Ditto the @PercivalEverett one.

Apple users, on this lawsuit, @WhichUK alleges that Apple doesn't allow some of your stuff to be backed up to third-party services. I'm not an Apple user, so can't check this - which services are locked to iCloud? theguardian.com/technology/2…

I’m a firm supporter of Assisted Dying, but “any bill that makes it possible must be supported” doesn’t do it for me. This is obviously a botch job, and as well as being a disappointment is a danger.

And just like you, now he’s just a bloke with a Twitter account
Spread the word among farmers: Blair's lead adviser says CLOSE DOWN ALL SMALL FARMERS because they're a political enemy. RETWEET so farmers hear the Labour plan The NFU is telling farmers NOT to come to London to demonstrate. TERRIBLE ADVICE. I've been in the PM office when demonstrations happen. a/ Westminster is weak as piss and b/ the MET leadership always fold if numbers are over a threshold - 'we police by consent PM, there's nothing we can do except manage it' Nutjobs are allowed to call for a second Holocaust waving Hitler photos every every weekend in London, SW1 ignores & doesn't cover in the news, cops just watch. Farmers shd ignore the NFU and cops - FLOOD THE ZONE, PRESSURE PRESSURE PRESSURE
