Oh, for sure in London or any other dense area where public transport is abundant, and taxis run 24/7 there is no need for cars.

I get what you mean but I find anti car rhetoric way too overdone.

Given the topic is about health issues there’s going to be a lot of people who have limited mobility so cycling isn’t viable and walking may only be short distances. Therefore a car provides them freedom they need.

Nah, if you leave people on waiting lists they give up, turn to private options or just die, so it’s no longer your problem. That’s the cost saving approach the NHS uses for mental health services.

This is hardly politics and has been covered endlessly in tech communities.

.io domains aren’t going anywhere. There are too many of them to safely migrate in a reasonable timeframe and too much core infrastructure is tied to them.

Both GitHub and Rust use .io for core infrastructure.

They might close registration of new domains but not renewals

Because after 14 years of Tory rule our living conditions are dire and mental health services not fit for purpose.

Why the fuck would investors get compensation? Isn’t the entire point of investing that your capital is at risk

Or Shark.

Like Apple, Dyson is just good at marketing. The products themselves are fine but nothing special.

Nobody has mentioned immutables yet?!

I finally dipped my toes into trying a new distro over the summer and have been really impressed with Project Bluefin. All the familiarity of Gnome for existing Ubuntu or Debian users but with a completely hands off rolling update experience.

The main drawbacks are the slight complexity of how the fuck to install stuff on an immutable system. In theory you use Homebrew for CLI apps and flatpak for GUI apps but I’m really not a fan of installing from sources other than the original dev.

Kagi is pretty decent. It’s worth supporting else the space will continue to be dominated by advertising monopolies.

Labour didn’t win this election. The lib dems didn’t do particularly well and the tories didn’t even perform that badly.

Labour and the lib dems are congratulating themselves on their wins but the reality is reform handed them most of the seats by splitting the right wing vote.

We need electoral reform so badly. Without it we’re just going to go back to Conservative majorities as soon as they sort their shit out.
