Getting rid of FPTP would be a help. Governments are getting elected on ever smaller shares of the actual vote. Labour only got 34% of the vote at the election. Governing was always going to be hard, and the huge gap between the parliamentary majority and the reality of the public is not helping.

And when ordering in restaurants “I’ll take…” which always seems a bit rude

Everyone should be using minimumReleaseAge (or their package managers equivalent) to block installing recently updated packages.

Same. I had to choose between this and the new Resident Evil. Went with RE just because it was £10 cheaper. I’ll wait on a sale for DS2.

15% now. He obviously didn’t get enough attention at 10%

No surprise. This is why they want counties to increase their military spending. To increase the money pouring into the military industrial complex.

This is why I drive a 20 year old car.

Also Shapez 2 if you like factory games. They’re German

I switched to Bazzite last week. I was only using Windows for games anyway. Amazed how simple it was, everything ‘just worked’.

Appreciate that some multiplayer games won’t work, but Arc Raiders does and that’s all my group are playing at the moment.

Somehow I coped without an offer to subscribe to an office suite and cloud storage. Phew.

What the other replies shitting on macOS seem to be overlooking is the support Apple provides.

Got stuck on something? call the support line or web chat.

Want to go to a training session? go to a local store.

All this stuff is super important for a novice who wants to learn without feeling dependent on their tech friend.

How can you be so clueless about what makes your brand work.

Surprised to hear this even had a UK release.

Hyperdrive with Nick Frost, Kevin Eldon and Miranda Hart

This is pretty much aligned with my POV: https://bigbrotherwatch.org.uk/campaigns/no2digitalid/

Good. The gov.uk ‘one login’ they are already rolling out is plenty good enough without the massive overreach of digital id.

To whom?

Both. Cash to WB shareholders, huge pile of debt in the new business.

It’s not that they don’t technically work. It’s just they’re no longer efficient compared to newer versions that can do more with less power. So to remain competitive you need to upgrade otherwise your cost to execute a model is too high.

Hyperscalers used to write GPU’s down to zero value after three years, over the last couple of years they’ve all increased this to six.

The trouble with the railways comparison is that after investing tons of cash the railways were built. With AI the GPUs have no value after 6 years (if that). So the investment must continue forever. It’s madness.

Or cut prices so $5 blackjack tables are a thing again with booze freely given while you gamble.
