Brexit was a mistake? Who'd have thought it?

The real irony is that age was a huge factor in voting - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-36616028.amp

So the folks getting a lot of the flak today are more likely to be remainers, I wonder how that's going to pan out in the long run (spoiler, it'll go as well as Brexit).

The ones cleaning up the mess in the UK are not the ones who voted for it - keep that in mind.

Repaste is part of it, but I noticed one of the fans isn't spinning up as well.

My 1080Ti finally died this year (started overheating). I've kept it though, in the hope I can fix it one day...

Every other part is just cobbled together from older rigs or sporadic upgrade pushes when a sale looks good.

I mean, if the king really wants to become beloved of the people he should indeed make a visit to parliament, and request they dissolve Musk's UK holdings.

Commuting isn't cheap - it costs most of us over £100 a week. Offices are rarely, if ever, catered, so be prepared to spend for lunch (or spend your free time prepping lunch,or paying extra for portable food).

Know what no-one factors in, the price of lost sleep for that commute, over the years you're paying a real premium in medical care as conditions develop.

Bring back genuine office perks (catering, refreshments, a culture of clocking out when done, banning open plan offices, on/near-site child care, flexibility for school runs, near-site medical/dental visits, exercise facilities open before and after hours) and offset the financial stresses by paying a reasonable wage, and you might see folks being less adverse towards RTO.

Academic/Scholarly monospace has long since fallen out of favour. It's a shame really as it does render text less readable.

Sorry but my burnout quotient is too damn high today. Leave it with me and I'll ponder it while I grab an emergency tea.

Whoa there, some folks still do. They're more accessible for dyslexic students, and also allow ASCII formatting for quick and easy questions creation on the fly.

No thanks, I want to improve the readability of my work.
