No chance. Up like a rocket, down like a feather. and that's without considering the lost production capacity.

You'd think they'd be complaints about the sonic booms... What's that, mach 586? Seems a bit excessive.

At that point, you stop watching, right? Youtube isn't some life or death resource - if they go too far, users will switch off.

Very happy - the £100 fine isn't the problem, it's the points/day-wasted-on-useless-course that is the real deterrent to speeding. And before people say "think of the children" and "I learned something I should

The "Yes or Maybe Later" dialogue boxes that festoon the internet & Windows 11 need to end - time for another law imo: "No" must always be an option, and notices must not be shown again if this is selected.

lol, yes - if you're native. I doubt the average far-eastern grandparent would achieve C2 easily.

If this were true, the papers wouldn't have run an article yesterday bitching about the lords sending back the workers rights bill again. The commons may _eventually_ overrule them, but it takes time and costs political capital. The ma

The lights aren't too bright, they're just poorly aligned. Go for a walk of an evening along a footpath into traffic. I guarantee it'll be Teslas and Minis that are the routinely the culprits of dazzling. I'd guess it&#x

Fuel duty works out at about 5p/mile. Slightly more for thirstier vehicles, slightly less for lighter vehicles. There is zero need to implement anything for petrol or diesel vehicles, which nicely eliminates the "pre-2016" pr

I also use an MVNO service. I have a horrible feeling that 3 traffic is being prioritised over Vodafone MVNO traffic, leading to service deg. End of the day, I was on Vodafone's network for a reason - it was the least congested in my a

Wasn't there a post the other day saying they'd moved it from "Ballache" to "All but impossible" to use a local account in 25H2?

Lol. One of my colleagues had Child Services round, as their daughter had told her school he was abusing her, because he confiscated her mobile (that he was paying for). Good luck "parenting" any child in this day and age, when an

Yep that. 30p/kWh in the day, 12p/kWh at night. Dry an entire load for less than the cost of a Day Rate kWh, simply by pressing the "delay" button a few times.

Pretty common in dryers as well. They turn over and blow cold air periodically to prevent them getting stinky.

I think just about every school in the land has one or two kids in each year who spend their lunch money on Monster/Red Bull (Caffeine is addictive - they cannot help it). Sadly, there is often only enough money for caffeine or food:

Only matters for people who care; that is not even the majority of apple users. It is well established that upgrading every year is a waste of funds; A lot of users buy a phone every 5-8 years (or after a destructive event) - IOS is nice to

Hardly, it's full of people that each individual member state had no say on whether they were there or not. Why should someone elected by the Polish electorate, or the Romanian one, have any say over what the British or Germans do? Esp

You're thinking too literally. The USA do not need any co-operation with from the operators of TMSC to deny China the asset. They have enough bombs. The Americans will want the experience of the operators. If those operators refuse to

What do you mean? You fire out the "detonate" command on the frequency used by Hezbollah - only pagers connected to that network blow. It's statistically probable you'll overwhelmingly damage terrorists. Sadly collateral

Majority of large retailers in the UK take AMEX. Probably over 75% of my consumer spending goes through my AMEX card - Petrol, Food etc, never had an issue. Can't speak for the rest of Europe.
