• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Britain's Plug-In Solar Revolution Really Just Months Away?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I see this argument a lot, but are you sure? Let’s assume the cables are using 2.5mm^2 which is around 1950’s installation “standards”, in the worst case that’s 13A derated. Is that not enough for 800W of power? Now, I’m not saying that a standard 3-pin plug couldn’t cause fire issues, or a bad connection, but that’s true for any 3-pin plug with an 800W load. And this completely bypasses the RCD issue because even 800*2 W would still not be enough to cause any fire issues.

  I’d be more worried about the plug being used, rather than the current situation.

  Would like to take this opportunity, sitting here in my sweltering house, to note that instead of doing something useful like making installing external shutters permitted development, Kier instead decided to take this many years to block porn for puritan Americans at the behest of Mandleson and Palantir

  “Royal Mail questioned by Ofcom after criminals communicated by post” I guess I shouldn’t give zero-privacy Kier ideas.

  Let me guess, Kier and Mandelson will suggest Palantir can handle it. Super secure, the most secure

  Sure but they don’t work as-well because the energy has already penetrated the glass and now needs to traverse the glass again to escape, better than nothing but not as good as external shutters

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK needs to urgently install air conditioning in schools and care homes, climate campaigners say⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Genuinely interested: do you have external shutters or awnings on buildings like schools in Italy? I have to pay £500 to a council planning department to get them approved to be installed. (Which is utterly ridiculous)

  I’m worried about both, but given the execution of people in the US right now, that seems the most worrisome fallout given Farage could be the next PM

  Exactly, this is how Labour force ID, then on to verifying your ID before you can use the internet, all posts will be moderated by government AI produced by Palantir

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Overheated homes: why UK housing is dangerously unprepared for impact of climate crisis⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have been arguing with my local council planning department to install external window shutters for years. Unfortunately installing them requires paying for planning permission, which requires an architect. It’s absolutely crazy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK residents need to take action to protect their data, privacy and freedom of speech NOW!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Unfortunately they have even killed being able to just encrypt data. Because of the key disclosure law the police can request the password/key for any data in your possession regardless of whether it is random data or not. If you can’t, you go to jail. Literally everyone is a criminal.

  Not even China or Russia have this type of authoritarian control over communication.
