I agree on both points. I just hope that people outside England can get away sooner rather than later.

It's a shame because they can be useful when not abused. Japan uses them to warn you about natural disasters, where they are timely and useful. Knowing several seconds before an earthquake hits gives you time to get to a safe position, and knowing about tsunami gives you a chance to get to higher ground.

By the way, don't ignore tsunami warnings. Even if it says it's 30cm, that is still more than enough to knock you off your feet and sweep you away.

People thought it was silly when Lex Luthor became president in the Superman comics, but here we are...

EVs are a golden opportunity to put the charge ports in a sensible position, like the front, and avoid all the left/right nonsense. Unfortunately many manufacturers seem to have decided to put them where the old fossil fuel ports were, which is terrible for a number of reasons. Not least when parking on public streets to charge.

The front is the correct place for the charge port. Every EV that puts it somewhere else is a mistake.

Just because some people do it doesn't mean that employers didn't demand far more from other people when they had the opportunity to exploit them. There used to be lots of badly paid jobs demanding well over 40 hours a week in the UK, until they were banned.

Because profit seeking capitalists have proven time and time again that they think you being at your desk is the same thing as productivity.

We had to fight for the 5 day working week and governments had to legislate for things like maximum working hours and minimum wage. It's something capitalism can't solve, quite the opposite in fact.

It's impossible to undo the damage that Facebook/CA did. Brexit is can't be reversed easily, and the UK will never fully recover from the damage, if the UK even survives it without breaking up.

Selling off all Facebook's assets wouldn't be enough to cover the cost.

Jail time would be nice but won't happen either.

Already been done in the UK. It works.

A 4 day work week should be a major goal for European governments.

Intel's response has been inadequate. No recall, no offer to replace affected CPUs that have not yet started to die. The damage is permanent and irreversible.

In future used Intel 13th and 14th gen CPUs will be largely worthless because there is no way to know if they are broken before buying one, so it's a diminution of value. Same for compatible motherboards and systems containing those CPUs. Intel's extended warranty will do little to change that, doesn't cover all affected parts, and will require the original purchase receipt.

According to the OBR, Brexit is currently holding our GDP 4% below where it would have been had we not declared sanctions on ourselves.

Thanks for proving the poster's point.

Are people really so thick that they think Trump wasn't hostile to their economic well-being?

Do they not teach history where you grew up?

Economists say that the mass deportations will cripple the economy.

I'm not in favour of unrestricted immigration.

It's already happening in the UK.

I expect same sex marriage will be on the table soon enough. They aren't going stop with just trans people, or even LGBTQ people in general.
