How significant is it?

Toyota still in a fix, but don’t be too quick to pin it on Russia - IMO:

The UK’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has been warning for several weeks that attacks could spill over. It’s difficult not to relate every post to what’s going on in Ukraine, but this is now the arena we are in. I just thought this is worth a read:

Actually, I’ll make a generous donation relevant to my means.

In these troubling times we all need something to cheer us up.
My heart goes out to those poor Ukrainians caught up in this mess. I will certainly make a small donation to charitable assistance.

Rugby: well done England - you just held out as we were getting into gear...lol

Can’t believe I came in low and already in good profit!! I hope it’s not just ‘a flash in the pan’ and results will come in good.

‘These’ ... not themselves!

Themselves technical issues that have nothing to do with cyber attacks whatsoever crop up all the time - it would seem!

Well said, jimmynan
Let's hope none of this escalates. Putin's rhetoric is not good, our politicians need to stay dignified in response.

Safestyle shares tumbled on Monday after the window and door specialist warned that a recent cyberattack would dent first-half revenues by around 10%.

The company, which announced last month that it had been affected by a cyber incident, said the "highly sophisticated" attack emanated from Russia.

I agree that Putin will ultimately be defeated, but how much damage will be done to the world in the process - who knows?

There's mixed reports coming out - the fog of war, eh!
'The Ukrainians are saying these talks will be held near the Ukrainian-Belarusian border, but according to the Russians, they believe, still, that the talks will take place in the southeastern city of Gomel in Belarus'

It's toe-dipping, won't come to anything - probably won't even happen.

Borderline subnormal, you are!

...BUT rejected the offer to hold them in Belarus, calling it an invasion staging ground.

Typo: ‘where’

Putin, proved a point years ago, when Cameron was PM, his jets infringed British airspace on a number of occasions. It happened over Scotland, were British nuclear submarines are believed to visit frequently. Also the Salisbury poisonings were designed to prove a point!

Very possible, Red_inky,
It only takes one madman. Never underestimate the stupidity of man! There is absolutely no chance of Volodymyr Zelenskyy taking up talks in Belarus. That is a non starter for obvious reasons, Putin knows full well it won’t happen.

Well done, you spotted the predictive text non-intentional word!
Not sure you had the sense to imagine the L though?

con-nob,
Well now, what can one say, eh?
That effort must have taxed your little brain to the limit. If brains were dynamite upon this earth - you wouldn’t have enough to bow your nose!
