Justice!

At least you can fork ff

More to the point, what’s average salary at a university? That’s 400 people on 50k a year (or something other, less equitable split).

My local uni occasionally posts jobs - none of them were anything close to that rate of pay…

Pretty sure Hertfordshire (where Hitchin is) is East of England

Except it causes anxiety and depression so nobody is going to give a shit.

Me too! But only on one arm.

Thanks, mild localised hypermobility.

They do in Scarborough, I’d wager it’s similar in Hull also.

Also that he thinks that it’s anyone’s fault but his for chucking it away. I know he says that an ex did it, but he left it in a drawer and forgot about it. If it was thrown by a partner surely they’d be liable (by his logic)?

the law states that property deposited at landfill sites belonged to the local authority, and that its environmental permits forbade it from disrupting the area in pursuit of the hard drive.

Also, this. He’s just going to make noise and waste a lot of money here I fear.

I got offered low level management or redundancy.

Took the “promotion”, with a slight pay hike, and now I’m spending the extra money on counselling for stress and anxiety.

All while watching the industry I work in spiral downwards after an artificial COVID years high.

I’m lacto-ovo veggie and the number of people who can’t fathom that I don’t eat meat (in the UK where it’s really quite common) is mind boggling.

“What, not even fish?” 🙄 No, mate, if it has a face I won’t eat it, but thanks.

People also tie flavours to specific foods. I have a friend who has a north African partner and they tell me often they’d go veggie if it weren’t for their partners chicken “which is so much better than ours”. No shit, he uses a fuck ton of spice and lemons. If you threw that on some veggies it would be a pretty close flavour experience. I get missing a texture (slow cooked beef? I miss that) but the flavour thing just doesn’t add up to me.

The right answer is “yes”. Some cash in the moment is a nice thing to do, and will alleviate an immediate want or need potentially.

Donation to an organisation that will help the problem long term is a worthwhile thing to fund.

Why not give a man a fish to eat while you’re teaching them to fish for themselves, if you’re in a position to do so?

You could have asked him what he wanted first, if anything at all?

It smacks of elitism, that’s all.

The OS is simply a means to an end. If Linux offers a way to do what they want in a way that is less hassle, and it meets their needs, then that’s a good thing.

To get nice new/modern trains would involve widening our tracks and updating the infrastructure. Where I live in the (flat) country who gives a shit - it’s all just land banking farms anyway, but near towns and cities it’s going to involve a huge amount of, at best disruption and and worst the massive displacement of the population who have homes that back onto rail lines.

Also we’d need all new bridges, tunnels, etc.

And we’re currently broke as fuck because all the rail operators have been siphoning profit to foreign governments shareholders since we privatised the fuck out of the country.

There’s not much that will kill you in the UK but there’s a lot that will make you want to die.

They shouldn’t have violated the ceasefire by returning to Northern Israel Their Homes a DMZ.

/s, obviously I hope.

customizable and configurable

Whatever you think of OPs proposed use case is definitely falls under the above.

It’s this kind of 1337 h@xor approach to the OS that makes people feel like it’s unapproachable when that’s so far from the reality these days.

But please always have a spare tube as well as a plug kit.

My great uncle left a load of masonic stuff but my dad returned it to his lodge before I could have a rummage through it.

My parents are religious and took a dim view of it.

Some of that stuff was pretty cool - it was a part of my great uncles life I would have loved to asked him about and I didn’t find out about it until he passed. Sad stuff.

That’s just what the ringfenced funds can be used for if the local authority decides to implement it.

Personally I have zero issues with this - most places in tourist hot spots do this and it just gets bundled in with the cost of staying there when you book accommodation anyway.
