It's just an excuse to not do his job. Too much like work.

Remote storage (Pi at parents house with a big disk) and cron'ed btrfs send over ssh.

Yer, it was the best to me too. I want to see a good chunk of the list, so I don't like the picture being very big. I like your no pictures interface link, I'll try it. Thanks. 😃

It's a good read, but he then back on it all and went all Apple. So it's a bit bitter sweat. Snow Crash is probably better.

Renationalise and sue the old owners and management for as much as we can claw back. It's been a complete con.

And Russia troll farms will be active in all of those other countries too. Sewing division.

"The paradox of tolerance."

But that's the whole problem. People haven't been turning Tory as they get older. So the Tory base is aging out of the population.

The Torys probably have at least another term of crazy, before they get their ship in order. They'll have some new "hug a hoodie" centrist leader and stop being so visibly the naughty party.

I think we loosen connections with US and increase them with sane European countries. The US is heading for isolation, and decline because of it. We have friends right next door.

And what will the other half do when it happens? They honestly think they could achieve anything staying? If so, they are..... mistaken.

Exactly. No UKIP or Reform in 2019, and 43.6% for Tory. A lot of vote was anti Corybn. A lot of the vote was hope for Boris's leveling up.

In 2024, I think most of the crazy right was already reform. The remaining Tory vote were voting for Tory of old, mostly centre right.

If by the next election, they have been through complete Faragification, I think they will get less again. Partly their base dying off and not being replaced and partly them driving away anyone near the centre. I think they do this for an election or two before a new Cameron comes to detoxify the party again.

And the more fascist they become, the more unelectable. I think they kind of have to finish being consumed by Farage and lose a few times to learn it.

So the Daily Fail has completed it's transition to Nazi support then. It wasn't a long journey for them to be honest....

A lot of vagueness. How many is "Hundreds"? I guess under 700 or it would be "nearly a thousand".

Then "About a fifth of respondents said they had either decided to spoil their ballot paper or were considering doing so, among them Sharon". How do we know Sharon is reflective of the others? We don't.

It seams like picture painted with not a lot of data, from a self selecting group, that is being cherry picked. Maybe it's reflective, but I got no way of knowing it's even reflective of the few hundred who wrote to The Guardian about it.

This writer got an axe to grind?

I'm dyslexic and even paying the half attention I have, is probably too much for what seams to be hexbear trolling. Nothing says troll more than torrents of insults.

If your real, just vote too keep Tories out or don't complain about them. Then advocate for better voting to keep them out of unchecked power again.

Age of Earth will be my guess.

They won't want their kids exposed to all that scientific consensus showing it's about 4 billion years old.

Fine. Don't vote. But don't complain things don't change. Perfect is the enemy of good. Me, I'm for getting rid of Tories then FPTP. I know the first is on offer, I hope for the second. As do the majority of Labour party members, so I have hope.

Refusing to vote just gets you ignored. It's also being peddled by the rightwing to try and disengage left leaners and reduce their voting power. Both in the UK and US. This Labour might to be as left as many would like, but they are more left than this Conservatives.

Yer, I'm out. This isn't worth it. Just vote to keep the Tories out, which ever party than needs to be where you are (bar Reform), or don't complain about them.

Because they and their voters had no interest. But they might now!

Hexbear has a rep.

Just because no one else has said, Adam has been involved in EFF for a long time. EEF Podcast episode with him in it:

Which delights me as he's more mainstream and so wakes people up to things like the Right To Repair movement.
