And in 5 years, or at most 10, the tories will be back in and destroy that future plan We had a future plan, it was called hs2. They were far to slow getting the diggers out, so it was cancelled for spite.

I couldn’t believe how slow trains in Germany were last month, even before the inevitable delays. Berlin to geneva averaged 70mph. Brussels to Leipzig was scheduled even slower and ended up 2 hours late. Even the train I took from Geneva to

Why would a hs2 user be connecting on from Euston? Or indeed from St Pancras (other than maybe Kent and Europe) But walking with a suitcase from Euston to KGSP isn’t exactly easy anyway. Only benefits to Euston are easy to get to the Victor

Long distance a lot of trains run through Birmingham. If you pick a journey between two of the top 20 urban areas cities by most direct rail routes very few go though London. There’s certainly a capacity issue though.

The idea copyleft doesn’t need copyright has been dead since TiVo, you need copyright to ensure people’s freedom, if you simply repealed copyright laws you would still have your rights as a user trampled. The problem in this case is the AI

If they want to ignore copyright great, let’s change the law so copyright only lasts say 10 years. But these companies want to have their cake and eat it.

Depends if you consider Tory as “far right” now and not a decade ago. Farage got 12.6% in 2015 and 14.3% in 2024. That’s not a massive increase. Tory vote meanwhile fell from 37% to 19% On the centre-left side, In 2015 Lib/Lab got 38%,

So many things here that might be good but without saying what you’re protecting against and what the tradeoffs are it’s meaningless. Plenty of places will offer you such lists, many of which will cause more harm than good in specific circu

You can buy RCE malware for Linux too - including crowdstrike. If you want a third party to manage your systems then it doesn’t matter what third party you choose Personally I’d go for diversity over any specific solution. That’s a rare thi

Go to every system manually, boot to safe mode, rename the sys files, run a fix. Easier to just rebuild from the image. For every windows machine your company has. lol.

There are times it makes sense - when you have a remote location you need power in that is more than batteries can provide for example. Say you need 300kW in a farm miles from the nearest supply for 3 months.
