Will be interesting to see once the fines start. Might just be an inconvenience to the ultra wealthy who might carry on but on the other hand people don’t like losing money, and it just takes a few cars to slow down to force everyone else to. Do you have ant points system or mechanism that will take away your licence for multiple tickets?

Seriously? I’m almost impressed with how they’re managing to help richer people out, encourage unnecessary consumerism and hurt the environment in so many ways that the average person can not understand or keep up with

I really resonate with this article as a parent and really want to give more independence but I think car brain really does get in the way. We cycle to school and people have bigger cars on smaller roads, don’t give enough space, park dangerously and just don’t seem to care about cyclists or pedestrians. Even cycling home today by myself I almost got knocked off so how can I let my child face that by themselves? It’s a vicious circle them that more people drive and the problem gets worse. Even going to the local park we have to cross or cycle on roads at some point. Most of the other parents drive, even if living really close. I’ve also had parents “telling me off” or commenting for letting him cycle on the road in front of me. Feel like I can’t win.

Really? And did they self regulate their fees? Oh wait no, it took EU enforcement to cut down their fees and stop businesses passing them onto customers. The EU also enforced more security regulation, and more use of those by the banks themselves using these credit card processors who washed their hands of levels of security

Sorry but the UK position is definitely wrong. Our kids get 6 weeks off just in summer, plus 2 each at Xmas and Easter, plus 3 x 1 week during half-terms. It is a challenge to cover these when working full time where the average holiday allowance is 5.6 weeks in total.

Nice idea but very poor execution

Are US citizens allowed to join the armies of other countries? I’m surprised by that

Anything on social media or news gets shared here. Most of our media is biased and owned by the ruling / capitalist class. This is not new at all (see: Brexit and Nigel Farage).

However, in reality there are multiple LTNs across cities in the country, especially in London. They are generally well accepted by local people but they aren’t very vocal about it. I think most of the cities have charges to drive in for higher emission cars. They’re here to stay but doesn’t make a good headline that they continue on.

Even in my heavily pro-car, suburban area, roads are finally being dropped to 20mph and they’re introducing school roads / other restrictions. There’s long term plans to reduce roads and introduce more cycle lanes (several years behind London Boroughs but going in the right direction…)

I completely agree and think you can’t arrest everyone but I don’t see that happening though. Look at the numbers on the street. If more people surrounded them so they could not physically leave, it might be different. What I see is a few brave people trying to stop them and not succeeding, and everyone else staying inside or filming from afar

They won. They got exactly what they wanted, plus anybody who tried to intervene got arrested along the way. From the headline I thought it would be more like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZcoXdZeabA . There’s still massive problems here and our version of ICE have got away with a lot but thankfully nowhere near this stage

This has blown my mind, I love it. I never thought there would be differences between countries but it makes sense given we don’t even agree on what sound they make

Oh man, I had no idea. I really appreciate you letting me know

I haven’t got it yet so not sure but good point I’ll need to check! He can handle the switch without removing the sticks. Is it even bigger than that?

You need healthcare for all your life, not just when retiring. Why wouldn’t you want to live and work in the state with healthcare if it actually works out cheaper for you and less risky? It’s a completely false economy to live in the other state with no healthcare but have to pay high insurance rates and have high deductibles?

I really struggled with readarr but maybe because I never used a private tracker as others have mentioned. I’ll give that a try

I had a lot more luck with https://github.com/evan-buss/openbooks but it’s completely manual. I make a note of books I come across and then every few weeks manually search on here and add the downloads to a calibre monitored folder.

One option is to get an IPTV service and use it with an app where you can record the shows on disk (like TiVo I think you guys use, heard that a lot on older TV shows lol). Will only record future shows but tbh, a lot gets repeated on their other channels (https://www.channel4.com/tv-guide).

Using a VPN is another option but I recently couldnt load the app while using a lesser known VPN from within the UK so they seem hot on blocking them.

Another option is rent a cheap VPS from in the UK to act as your own VPN.

All of their shows is on their app, and they have a pretty cheap ad free option if you can figure that out too.

You are amazing, thank you so much! It all worked apart from the last one, which said it needs an output file specified so added -o after a quick search. I really appreciate the quick response to, I got in very quickly but only just managed to respond here.

If you are a student with certain schools you can get it for free. I’m doing a part time course at a UK university and they gave it for free, I just had to register using my university email address. I’ve not taken it up as want to avoid it in favour of libreoffice but will use for coursework on a VM if I really need to.

Guess they try to suck people in so they pay in the future

Do you physically have access to the router? If so, I would figure out the settings it uses that other people notice (wifi settings etc) and just hard reset it. Chances are they just use the basic settings provided anyway.

Is anybody else using the router or just you? If just you, I’d just do what you want to it and reset it when you leave.

Does the Web app work offline at all? I use thunderbird currently partly for this but also partly for my calendar which I’m still transitioning from self hosted caldev to proton calendar

I am very hesitant to use them after finding bitwarden (self hosted vaultwarden) so much better than keepass and past experience does say anything new released by proton will take a while to be full featured 😀 .

I understand your pain though. I setup my wife with it but can’t convince her to actually use it, despite her getting regularly frustrated with forgetting passwords… I keep saying to people it is so much better than not having one as it fills it automatically and is much more secure but for some reason, people think I’m the crazy nut for using one.
