  • It varies by county too.
    Cornwall does a shitload of swimming lessons, plus all the beach safety stuff (what the flags mean, how to spot/escape a rip, slip/slop/slap)

  • At least your water bill isn't the best part of £1000 so the company involved can pay dividends...

  • Sounds like a 6 ohm resistor solution.

  • Imagine if they introduced a law, that if you had defaulted on your student loans, you were not able to get a passport.
    That would reduce the number of highly skilled people leaving the country if it got really shit.

  • Rawl brand have these notes on the plastic, which I think is neat.

    Brown plug, 7mm hole, 5-6mm screw.

    Even a little gauge to go with it.

  • I can agree with this: All the hype around KCD:2 led me to buying/playing KCD:1

  • Kinda crazy, because W7 didn't support first gen Ryzen either!

  • Deathworlders universe

    Downright feudal at the end, though! Just gotta hope you're a rich/lucky landowner.

  • Good if you want to buy 4MB of stolen ram, however.

  • Personal spaceships commonly available?

    Lots of unusual, but generally friendly aliens?

    The Space Dandyverse wouldn't be too horrid.

  • This is why I end up doing so much DIY.

    A job that takes a professional half a day could take me a whole weekend.
    But having to play "how likely are they to fuck it up, and how much of a pain will it be to fix" drives me up the wall so much, I often just buy the tool and do it myself.

    My time to do it: 15 hours, plus £200 in materials.
    Cheap tradesman: 8 hours, £450 total, non-zero chance I'll have to rip it out and re-do it myself anyway.
    Specialist tradesman : 5 hours, £900-1200 total.

    So it either ends up being lots of work, a gamble, or lots of money. Quick, good, cheap, pick two!

  • Or they're used as a bargaining chip by the US.

  • New cabinet pick for the US on its way, I guess.

  • Hosting NSFW content is an absolute ball-ache, so a lot of instances that are not NSFW focussed do not host it.
    In the early days of feddit.uk, we decided to go the path of SFW, to simplify things.
    I absolutely salute the lemmy-nsfw admins in taking that load on.
    And it makes a lot of sense: If you're going to deal with the headaches, you might as well focus entirely on them!

  • That's the main reason I haven't bothered upgrading mine any more.
    100mbits with 3ms latency is pretty rocking.

  • Let's just hope that it doesn't end up like Snowpiercer!

  • Looks like a lovely place to relax after a long day asking people for heroin money.

  • "We realised we could use the same neural pathways that rabies does. Isn't it lovely when nature saves a large corporation development money?"

  • You technically have to qualify for membership...But they're not exactly rigorous in the checks.
    There is a certain type of blow-hard over here who will make qualifying for a costco membership a point of pride.

    Fortunately, most of ours can be reached by bus too.

  • Reminds me of the time I didn't realise that my underfloor heating had week/weekend heat settings, and woke up to a 24 degree basement.
