Thanks for your uninformed opinion/question thing. I’ll assume that you are asking in good faith and simply don’t know… much about the UK.

He isn’t the root cause, but he chose to insert himself by encouraging violence when he hasn’t a fucking clue what he’s talking about either

Denmark looking decidedly not green this morning. It’s sunny, but virtually no wind - might be like this for another week. Check the map regularly to understand why unreliable energy is actually just a way of increasing gas usage.

This is not tangental - I am heartened, my hope is that this would become normal. Despite my moan, it isn’t that bad and I’m sure I would have had different IT headaches on windows - security comes to mind.

I still use proprietary android software on my phone, but I try not to do anything secure on my phone (this is also getting harder as banks are insisting that I convert to apps)

Also, please feel free to answer if you aren’t based in the UK, I assume this isn’t a UK only problem, but I’m based here.

I don’t know if the UK is worse than anywhere else (?)

I haven’t watched the video - so I’m going on what is said above, but its like these billionaires are not seeing people as human. They see that after Hiroshima people live in the city but cannot understand that those people weren’t fungible. We didn’t replace them - they are different people.

Two other small points, but first a caveat - I’m very pro civil nuclear power.

It simply isn’t possible for any nuclear power plant to explode like a nuclear bomb. That can’t happen - like my car contains an engine but can’t fly like a plane. There have been nuclear leaks and chemical explosions in nuclear plants - these are bad. However, they are very different things from what happened to Japan.

Modern nuclear weapons would have much higher yields and probably fallout. Here’s a terrifying tool for the morbidly curious:

Thanks - I had not thought of this. I’ll give it a go… [edit: no dice :(] It works in chromium, so there is a solution… its just tiring to remember which browser to use for which site.

I don’t see why all of a sudden all the black male actors, rappers, musicians and stand up comedians have to cosplay as Troy from community.

edit: Add director and producer to that list - check before you post kids!

Its not the ‘eat the rich’ that I was hoping for… Might be the one we deserve.

Don’t pay this! You just reinforce their predatory practices. How renewals at much higher prices are allowed - no clue!

Something similar happened to a company I know - it expired and was immediately bought by domain squatters, when they found them they were told that it couldn’t be sold back because the squatter had paid $XXXX for and had big plans (I assume it was BS, just a premise to get paid - no site was ever put on the domain)

Solution: they bought the .org version and bought the .com back a year later.
