Never mind the translation, are these pens any good and should I buy them?

Streeting wants to be PM really bad. Which is precisely why he won’t be any good at it.

Any suggestion that JD could not focus on the negotiations because an Iranian’s robe remind him of a much ‘loved’ sofa cushion would be a scurrilous rumour

Not to mention that his own toxic behaviour poisoned the brand’s perception and drove customers away, which is surely a real contributor to the business ending up being sold off.

Why does that article suggest that getting off to online smut is a radical new concept?

I bet a day after Charles Babbage finished the Difference Engine he started musing on how to make it do something rude.

Maybe they do make good crisps. But also these ones.

Some middle-aged white men don’t like being told that they are arses by a young girl.

How they deal with that indicates exactly how much of an arse they are.

To be sure, online media is often not the place for nuance or considered debate. YouTube in particular favours a punchy headline that is reflects the core concept of the matching video.

That would be fine if so many Linux people were not constantly exhorting those same Windows/Mac users to switch to Linux ALL THE TIME.

It is not easy. That is the point being made. Many people have no interest in doing that, because they don’t care about the spirit or aspirations behind Linux. They just want to get their shit done.

So Mastodon right here.

Why don’t you *just* reverse engineer the installer code in a clean room environment, rewrite the whole thing with new account creation routines, and then recompile and post it on GitHub under an open source license?

Party membership does not equal votes, though. Corbyn lost in 2017 with those 565k members and look how that turned out in the years that followed. Convincing voters is the trick.

The law on bail it that you have a right to it unless there are reasonable risks that you would fail to appear again when summoned, commit further offences or intimidate witnesses. And these risks should be mitigated by imposing conditions, rather than denying bail, wherever possible.

It’s a police decision until you are charged, then it becomes a magistrate court decision.
