mybrowsercache··on We're going to need default hard budget caps on pretty much everything
My mobile phone contract reduces my speed a lot when the hard limit it reached. I still get some connectivity. What Never happens is that I have to pay extra. If a company can’t give me hard limits on the cost I have to pay, I will not do business with them. Notifications when close to the limit are fine, but when I don’t react to them I want things to crash rather than having to pay indefinite amounts.

FM stays listenable even with heavy distortions when you drive out of range and you can decide for yourself when you no longer tolerate the signal. Digital doesn’t give you warnings and just goes silent

Listened to this in Denmark in the car just yesterday. It usually sounded awful but was the only English language news source in the car, so I’m going to miss it. Since the BBC sold the transmitters and rented them back, let’s hope we don’t get US-style right wing talk radio as a replacement.

At the moment they are running a goodbye loop, so you can still hear something.

At least there’s Radio Caroline still on 648kHz AM, so there will be a British voice still on the air.
