From memory the entire ad income for sky was about 1/10th of their income as a whole. That includes all that damaging gambling adverts in football matches. People are far too accepting of adverts imo, it’s a horrendous industry

Raises a tiny percentage of income. That said seeing static posters for west end shows on the escalators is hardly the worst advert. The trend to do “event” adverts which do confuse people (James Bond Street etc) certainly should be stopped

I’ve had company devices for over 20 years. I’m currently on the way back to my hotel. I refuse to carry more than one phone or one laptop, and I sure ain’t brining a personal device into a country I wouldnt go to on vacation.

Nobody in the suburbs seems to be trying to fight it, it’s people who like the high density living and want others to do so too. People can choose now, some like suburban life, some like city life. Maybe this is influenced by media (not man

I’ve been wondering about just battery and inverter and using an agile tariff. How large an inverter did you get and what happens at full load (oven, kettle, electric shower and hairdryer all on at same time) which is presumably combined hi

You’re right that a normal toilet can have an appropiate physical handle. Howver normal toilets are easy to push open as they aren’t moving. Opening a large (and thus heavy) swing door, wide enough to allow a chair to get in, manoeuvre, and

An old fashioned handle and lock is about as low maintenance as you can get - far less than a complex locking mechanism requiring a computer reboot from the cab to handle when a passenger gets stuck in because they can’t figure out the “ope

There’s no reason you can’t flush in a station - modern trains don’t just drop onto the track (and people have to work on the track, so the station is just a PR thing to avoid offending passengers) In the U.K. any train from the last 30 yea

Older toilets were far smaller with a normal kayak handle which opened and closed quickly and had a big simple lock. However those don’t work with some passengers - wheelchair users for example, people with difficultiy holding handles etc.

In the U.K. there are massive grants for home owners who don’t have a reasonable income. It’s ageism - more money flowing from young workers (who pay the highest taxes) to old owners (who pay the lowest) The generation that can benefit are

I appreciate the sarcasm, but yes I write cgi programs all the time. I go from conception to deployment in minutes. I was looking at one such system (a bash one) that’s approaching its 10th anniversary. It has outlasted so many systems it’s

iPod touch came out in 2007 and ran iOS, 3 years before the iPad. iPad was basically a big iPod touch, which was basically an iPhone with no modem.

In the U.K. I can rent that with a couple of clicks for £3.50 from half a dozen stores including Apple, Amazon and youtube. Inflation adjusted renting the vhs in the 90s cost £5.90.

Only at night. Build 3 data centra and you can provide full solar power to at least one of them at any time, just shift the workload to the resource with the power Or base your DC in a location with lots of other renewable energy

It was far better going into an office with no traffic, being able to drive there rather than a crowded train and tube, having an office with maybe 90% of the normal occupants missing, and plenty of room for those of us who were in. WFH is

You can’t guarentee that. The system can be dossed as it’s not a 1:1 mapping, thus there is a queue. That queue may never be used, although sometimes it is, and sometimes it just overflows https://www.insideedition.com/short

So they have enough people on shift for an 1:1 map with every moving car out there? If not there’s a queue. The capacity may exceed normal demand, so the queue would be of length zero, but there is still a queue as it’s not a non blocking o

The kid tax is at 50k, if you have student loans and 2 kids the marginal tax at 50-60k is 69%, then back to 42% for 60-100, then upto 62% 100-125, then 40% upto 150, then 45% above that. (Numbers approximate)
