I’ve only ever heard that from Americans. I’m surprised it’s not a thing here in the UK seen as we love copying the worst from the yanks, but on this no one cares.

Can’t see that happening. The Google maps fees will be way too much, even though they probably have a custom arrangement

Sweet, so there’s no real difference between labour and conservative policy. This is just setting up Reform to win big at the next elections as people give up on the two main parties.

I hope I’m wrong and the greens or Lib Dem’s can fill the left wing void, but this country has repeatedly disappointed me at the ballot box.

Yeah same here. I’m not sure if I’d use Siri more if it were better, but to be honest I don’t really need all these ChatGPT stuff. Just make Siri better at the basic stuff it can already do.

You know what, I’d take either at this point

What are the consequences if Trump just ignores the judge?

TIL America is currently at war. Well they had a good run, enjoy the dictatorship

+1 for his YouTube channel. One of the best medieval history channels there is

Super bright headlights just one of the issues that arise because cars are only designed for the people in them. Another example of the “selfish” design is the heigh and flat front of most cars now that is awful for anyone else in a collision. Headlights are just more noticeable and actually effect other drivers.

Maybe not black, but if it’s more of a gray-ish black, it will absolutely blend in with the constant cloud

How can a science museum accept sponsorship from a fossil fuel company after all the fake science and climate denying they have funded? I get that at the end of the day, money is money, but that really makes be question the validity of anything related to climate in the museum.

 
 

So I’m walking to an evening class at a local college, it’s dark. There’s a bend just before the junction and as I’m walking across a car comes round way too fast. I had to step back to avoid being hit. I was wearing gloves and as it went past I hit it, no idea why, just instinct and anger.

I carry on walking and I see the driver has pulled over a bit down the road, I was expecting a “sorry are you ok” but she instead shouted “did you just hit my car?”. That set me off, shouting at her that she almost fucking ran me over. Then she says “you don’t have to use that kind of language”, the fucking nerve.

Gave up and just walked off. Wish I’d have smashed the wing mirror or keyed the car or something.

Has anyone else almost been run over and how do you deal with the anger of it?

 

I live in the Uk and fancied a holiday just going around Great Britain for a week by train and saw this was an option.

Just wondering if anyone has used it and was it worth the price vs booking each trip in advance.
