Re: Home Office targets small boat crossings

It's not an ecological question. At least some of the boats are being 'recycled' by being sent back to France for another load.

Re: The end is near for the AJAX armoured vehicle

What would they be doing different id the program was being run by the CCP?

Of course it is.

See title.

Re: A storm in a teacup

"A reputable Chief Constable"

He was a proven liar.

Re: What?

Talk about staying in your bubble.

Re: Facilitating Access to NCII and CSAM

This is nothing to do with NCII and CSAM. They don't like Musk's politics and want to shut him down. That's it.

Re: Sometimes U-Turns are an improvement

"Don't worry, billionaires will enslave us one way or another."

How?

Re: Extraordinary

Rather that than a Google FANBOI!

Re: It doesn't matter what direction Trump heads off to

"And the events in Venezuela have now given the green light to Chine to invade Taiwan, and for Russia to invade..."

Bollocks. The US operation in Venezuela has just shown China et al that all the shiny military technology they have paid for is worth zip against the US. You can be sure the CCP are scrapping all their current invasion plans and starting again from scratch.

Re: Old, old news

"...or seek to create division..."

You mean people disagree with you? How terrible!

Re: Does The First Amandment Apply to Non-US Citizens ?

Never been to China, have you?

The BBC actively acts against my interests and beliefs, so they can fuck off.

Re: The last time there was a "know-nothing populist arsehole"

Seriously? Joe Biden...

Re: Rant

Missing the point completely. The issue is that this means EVERY Australian now has to prove their age before accessing social media. Which means submitting PII at some point. No thanks.

Exactly where we wanted to be.

Re: Waiting for evidence?

Much more likely to turn up owned by some Democrat ally. Trump does not and has not ever had any involvement with the medical industry.

Re: "Whatever your job, mentoring is your job – and the one that matters most"

Absolutely this. The article is all extraverts thinking everyone should be extravert and behave like an extravert.

Nope. Not happening.

"Unfortunately, the current inhabitant of the White House has shown repeatedly he doesn't know or care about the value of another human life."

Please provide examples.

Re: Same old story

Yours, maybe.

You are worth exactly what someone is willing to pay you.

Re: "all in alignment with human intent"

"...they're hateful in so many ways."

Name them.

Re: Hot air on offer you say?

"Some downsides of planned economies, of course."

Well, that's the understatement of the century.

Re: Reform is just a more right-wing version of the Tories.

"40 million about to lose healthcare. 20+ million about to be unable to put food on the table (SNAP benefit recipients)"

The shutdown is entirely down to the Democrats.

Re: Wrong problem

"Microsoft wasn't lying when they said win10 was the last windows I was going to install."

This.

Trump won the electoral college and the popular vote. Democracy is doing fine.

Re: It is impressive but the comparisons are flawed

Yes, China's success in this is largely down to the big spaces between built up areas where you can build straight line tracks and not give a shit about what the locals think.

Re: Nobody deserves that much

Something/someone is worth exactly what someone is willing to pay them. I get that you don't like that but that's how the world works. Every attempt to change that has led to millions being murdered.

Re: Lil' Help for the switchover?

"However, the whole point of Linux is that it's easier than Windows these days. A lot easier."

You say this and then go on to say you have to "Check to see if all of your hardware has Linux support. PC, sound, GPU, printer, monitors, mouse, etc."

THIS IS NOT EASIER THAN WINDOWS!

It's bullshit like this that puts people off Linux.

"The more customers there are, the more infrastructure is needed to support them and the more expensive it is to run."

This is 100% backwards. Increasing users decreases the unit cost of sales.

Re: Pots and kettles

He's paying enough taxes to cover it. San Francisco just keep spending it on DEI managers.

The spirit of the OSA is not to keep kids away from harmful material.
