I remember back in the 2000's I had a Debian box running some stuff next to me by my desk. One day my ears picked up on a regular little click-clack from the drive which on investigation turned out to be my first experience of being SS

Not true, it gives them the ability to remove them from a situation and deposit them somewhere more appropriate for their needs.

Criminalization also allows the police to take action in situations where they are currently powerless, where it is for the public good.

That works for letting you see what happened after the fact, but not for alerting you to something happening right now.

I'm reading Zen and the art of motorcycle maintainance at the moment which also pushes and pulls at the limits of reason and rationality. Some of the ideas are quite 'dense' and worth making notes over. Worth a read.

They are related although the government does not control interest rates, the BofE does. To be honest I'm not super worried as I can see the inflationary pressure is mostly coming from the knock on effects of the Ukraine which will und

When you take out a mortgate now they do an affordability check which includes checking if you can afford the repayments if interest rates spike up, it's spart of the shpiel they have to go through.

GPB to Dollar seems to have levelled out and started coming back slowly so I guess they might get away with it. As the dollar is also up against Euro and many other currencies, possibly due to it being a default 'safe port' in unc

Misleading title. A couple of mortgage lenders have temporarily paused some of their products because of uncertainty about interest rates in the short term. BofE is holding fast on interest rates despite tremendous pressure to put them up t

I thought about the smog too. Probably from the coal fires, gas lamps and the like. And now we’re worrying about dust from tyres! Things move on eh.

I can accept that more 'poor people' might make use of euthanasia than 'rich people' by whatever metric you choose to define those terms. Poorer people tend to have worse health overall for various reasons, also there ar

PHP looks horrific for energy use although it would have been 5.x in 2017. Think about all those PHP websites out there spending all day serving requests to bots and brute forcers. That's a lot of energy.

I grew up near Skelmersdale which is a ‘new town’ built in the 60’s without traffic lights, all roundabouts. Traffic is segregated from pedestrians using underpasses and footpaths don’t follow roads generally. Some aspects of it work well.

Some cars have a virtual ball joint on the bottom of the hub to get around the ‘the brakes are in the way’ issue. Two separate arms with two more inboard ball joints act the same as one arm with the joint much further out. https:/

My gut reaction is no. It does sound like a dumpster fire so I would leave. You feel a moral obligation to inform investors which is good but be open to the possibillity that there's more going on than you are aware of so things might
