Its such a great piece of history. Something that was not possible until this century, but an pure history. I feel sorry for the people involved who may not have been able to correct consent at 7 years old. But it show real human sprit - adoption to foster carer. Mental health to over coming mental health and real friendship.

Best TV ever. No doubt.

Which is why there is absolute separation between the fiercely independent judiciary and the government in the UK. No influence is possible, consider the case of the MP convicted of rape and the fiercely independent judiciary pushing back on character references.

Re Tech Kit EDC https://imgur.com/a/xmRmYSn What is model of the mini-laptop ?

As a person that leans towards socialism. I want to understand from someone who leans towards capitalism, the reluctance with immigration. We have people who will travel large distances for a potential benefit (i.e risk takers), who like the articles mentioned, are happy to work hard.

This is the ideal characteristics of an entrepreneur or early employee or a start-up. More labour, lowers labour costs. What is the reluctance with immigration ?

Poll created - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25397737 As I think it is also a good discussion on Gender Identities.

Look that first goal broke my heart. However, real football has uncertainty, it has games where you were robbed. Games where the referee blow the whistle a fraction before the ball hits the net (no goal). When a goal is given you can celebrate, especially in a live match. Now VAR robs something of the game. The second goal would not have happened with the first goal being ruled against. Not driven the next England side to semi-final to almost avenge the 1st goal. VAR is terrible. Football without VAR is like live - full of injustice, full of revenge, full off real emotions.

But the first goal, broke my young heart. Can never forgive.

Also see https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0686shj Good maths, a strong bladder and the ability to hold eight '99s' in one hand. Ali Coote remembers the important lessons she learned as an Ice Cream Van driver.

Had a summer job as a Ice Cream van driver. The only downside was the tune. I ended up whistling all day. You park you car after work and you hand automatically go to turn on the chimes. And yes - I even dreamt the tune.

Get job, would be fairly immune to covid down-turn - might actually be a mini-boom. Many good memories just not of the tune. "Just one Cornetto ..."

Out of interest which provider in the UK ?

MOVA, Needs to be more than 50m or just switch to UTC. Sigh - Traffic Engineer.

IMHO - We want to encourage people to write and share these blog posts. Its now fixed and would be polite to remove the links.

He was not under house arrest. He choose to enter the embassy, he chose to break bail.

Now the point about I may have done same thing given the same actors against me - does not make it house arrest.

As a counterbalance - reporting restriction from court are highly regulated in the UK. If a person breaks the regulations it is easy to deny them access the next day. No so easy on remote access, hard to control/prosecute contempt of court.

Surprised to see this here. Did not expect to see it here. Did this "Walk" during lockdown - on my treadmill.

For profit company, but asking for crowd funding with little in return.

I love to support - but ultimately I am volunteering my money for their profit margin.

>You can't just dismiss the fitness routines people have spent years choosing and refining and getting better.

I am not, It must be very hard, to take away something you love and trained.

Society is asking you to sacrifice a big thing for something that may not benefit society at all. The chances of you catching and then spreading are ~ 1/1000. Assuming a 1% mortality. We are asking 100,000 people to give up something they love to save one loved one.

My own value system is that my enjoyment is not worth 1/100,000 of a person life. I would say in the order of 1/1,000,000. Based upon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ALARP is where I get my figure.

I am interested which figure you think is reasonable - 10^5 or 10^6 or between or higher or dismiss the risk entirely ?

>And now my life is complete: here I am, trying to defend Bill Gates, on the internet.

I feel the same way. Talk about full circle, it goes from a point in time where Mr Gates appeared to be set on destroying [internet/open source/linux] to now being one of the leaders I actually want to get behind.

In what every role (Mr Gates Villian, Bill the philanthropist) he is at least well informed.

Wow "Mills' Mess" is one juggling move that is a real pain to learn. but some beautiful to do once you have mastered it. It goes into muscle memory.

At that point you have reached the zen of juggling.

Inspired by article in Private Eye as well as a need to improve my own mental health during lockdown. Not only have I done five portions of fun a day. I wrote an app/website to help anyone journal Five Fun Things a day.

Could never use them again after how they have reacted to the pandemic.

Some poor accident investigator had to write that up.

Thanks.

Yep - noise as much as heat.

I have the siding, then (paper) waterproof layer, then wool layer, then plastic (condensation) layer. Then 3mm board, then wallpaper-brick-effect.

I did the same[1] Great relief from work. Its worth it s weight in gold as I have a separate building to commute to in the morning. My costs £2,497. As I wanted a bigger shed split into two parts. With double insinuation and lots of power outlets. Plus a big (MDF) desk.

Machi Koro is good for kids of monopoly age. It take 30-40 mins and makes for a great finish. You build different types of properties About 10,000x better than Monopoly. https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/143884/machi-koro https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z20szhLeDSE

Agree with Carcassonne, Catan, Ticket to Ride and Patchwork. I will look at Love Letter.

I am using my one exercise unit a day to make sure I keep my steps/walk/runs up. (Although not on fitbit)
