- Comment on AI boom means regulator cannot predict future water shortages in England 3 days ago:
What’s fucking ridiculous, is that any industry could not have to report water usages. Let alone an environmental disaster area like AI.
- Comment on Driver stops in the middle of a cross ride, and starts using her phone. 3 days ago:
Go right and you’re in oncoming traffic, go left and you’re risking further traffic stopping at this junction crushing you against the back of her car? I’d rather not. Bunny hop and skid mark on the roof is much better
- Comment on Reappraisal of the Geologic Time Scale: Evidence for a 6,001-year-old Earth 4 days ago:
“I first went about the humane capture of the wildlife of C-100. A few peacocks were caught with bear traps, an iguana was captured via a falling piano, and a peacock bass was shot in the face with a shotgun, all in line with the standards set by the Florida Constitution [3].”
- Comment on EHRC commissioner calls for trans people to accept reduced rights 2 weeks ago:
That’s my point about permissiveness, if the rights weren’t there about self identifying, but everyone’s ok with it, then it feels like more rights, which may or may not be supported in law. But then when a lack of support in law is being enforced by bad feeling alone, people who want to cry about who’s using which toilet, then the end result is that it feels like a loss of rights. I think it’s a bad thing, but I also understand that in law, being able to do something without a fuss, and then later not being able to, is nothing to do with rights unless the law actually changed.
- Comment on EHRC commissioner calls for trans people to accept reduced rights 2 weeks ago:
Misleading title, they’re apparently not reducing rights, they’re communicating that the rights have not changed, but assumptions were incorrectly made and it ‘feels like reduced rights’ It’s not a nice thing to learn and needs to be handled carefully and compassionately, even a policy to be permissive and encourage to normalise what the assumed increase in rights were working towards making them actual rights. But yeah, antagonistic headlines as ways.

But much to expect it to get it all in one tile. I mean it’s only 6” square.

I was always rock/metal/grunge/alternative/thrash and so on in interests, so punk was not a bit of me, only the big names with tracks in the charts I ever noticed, so I missed these guess completely.

- Comment on A stranger peeled the clearcoat off my car 3 months ago:
That’s a stonechip, the impact mark is the little white dot slightly off centre of the patch of missing clearcoat. Then you can see the almost water mark streaks as moisture has crept under it from that mark, as the adhesion to the layer below is slowly destroyed with heat and cold cycles. Then either wind or washing the car has lifted it and it peeled off. Jetwashing the car is the biggest risk for these little defects.

It infuriates me that people still promote gone off/contaminated beer as a style of beer.

Sorry, being late for work is not an excuse for driving a vehicle in an unfit condition. Either you prepare the car to drive it, or you don’t start the journey.

- Comment on Digital driving licences to be ‘put on phones this year’ 4 months ago:
I mean, written a little anti-establishment, but you’re completely right, the ‘producer’ slip issued to bring your documents in has been standard stuff for decades and all of the digital info is available to them as soon as they stop you, so it’s literally just proving your face matches the documents to have it with you. If they just had your mug pop up on the screen in their car, who would need to produce anything?
- Comment on Digital driving licences to be ‘put on phones this year’ 4 months ago:
I don’t see the problem, if you’ve ever used the hmrc tax app, it’s completely fine.
- Comment on Driver stopped in Tesla Cybertruck banned in UK 4 months ago:
However, it has not yet passed UK road safety tests.
GMP said the car that was seized had been referred to Operation Wolverine, which was established in 2007 to target drivers without insurance.
The owner will have to prove ownership and correct insurance prior to release.
So even if insurance was proven, not sure how for an illegal vehicle, it could be released, but it couldn’t be driven, so knowing the way our authorities work; get this vehicle collected, on a transporter of some kind and get it out of our compound by xx date or we’ll crush it.

You’re entitled, usually required, to add your personal lock onto this when you start working on a locked out job, that way you can be confident they’ll come looking for the last guy to lock off the job before they can get running again, it may save your fingers/arm/life or job. Usually there’s a permit involved and you should know the conditions of the permit, or have your own permit to join a job.
