I’m really confused… Did you answer my question?

If you buy a derelict house(that no human can possibly live in) and fix it up to a decent standard with the intent to sell it, are you still a piece of shit?

Peace with no occupation would be ideal.

I guess you gotta celebrate the wins when you can no matter how messed up the situation is! :)

I know this isn’t the core of the story but I’m kinda proud of my country (The UK) for not fucking this up.

I think the UK Justice system did it’s job here, albeit keeping him detained for a lengthy duration to do it.

Isn’t heated tho :P

They don’t “all” have to be connected, the vast majority of available global models aren’t (IE a lot of the affordable Indian/Chinese models).

The vast majority of models sold in the USA are IE Tesla. More affordable models like the Renault Zoe afaik aren’t but I’m not sure how accessible these are in the USA. I’m not sure about the Chevvy Volt tbh… Consumers can purchase to buy a non-connected vehicle.

Out of the EVs I have I mostly use the one that is connected so I can do automations to turn on climate control etc. Connectivity is a convenience/safety thing for me and I assume others…

1. Bidet toilet seat
2. Good mattress & office chair.
3. Home Automation devices (mower/vacuum/lights etc).

Agreed, but specifically an aftermarket electric seat bidet to save in a load of plumbing.

He was my local (Bradford) MP and he was absolutely useless. The main has a fragile ego and is totally dedicated to himself. He is an opportunist politician and Rochdale will suffer for it.

I’m sorry Rochdale, it’s going to be a rough few years…

I help maintain Etherpad and this cuts so deep.

The main counter-argument I have is restrictive installation policies especially in Edu/bluechip IE you can do whatever the fuck you want in the sandbox that is your web browser but if you want to install some software you have to wait 4 weeks for approval then another 4 weeks to get approval for each update.

Also security updates/patches for native applications can be really shitty especially on Microsoft inflicted devices… For example, if you want to update Inkscape on Windows you have to do a whole download/install process. This can lead to security related issues…
