"The film also investigates wild claims that, the then, Prince Charles piloted an experimental UFO type craft in 1975"

For some reason I am doubting the credibility of this source

Made me think of the yellow eyed demon from Legion

Usually 12, and it's a temporary ban, but there are some cases where people have managed to accumulate more because judges kept deciding that they needed to keep being able to drive despite repeatedly demonstrating that they cannot drive safely.

If the council maintained the road markings like they are supposed to then companies meeting their obligations to repaint markings would never make the news. It only gets picked up on when the original marking is basically non existent anyway.

I tried to sign it but I forgot that the UK isn't in the EU anymore 😞

It only takes one person to fuck it up. I agree it's stupid, but introducing a conflicting standard increases the chances of someone fucking it up in the name of progressiveness. Needless to say I killed off the main branch that someone one had tried to make to replace the master branch.

It's all good and well until you start working in a repo that has both master and main branches for some reason, and it is not clear which is actually the master/main branch.

This sort of thing works for me, I think the key is instead of trying to quiet your mind, if you instead keep it busy with something mundane or relaxing until it just switches off. Sometimes I pick numbers and do multiplication in my head, and eventually I'm close enough to falling asleep that I forget the two numbers I'm multiplying and at that point I stop and fall asleep within minutes.

What is the alternative? Piracy?

Belgian, so I'm surprised they were sensible enough to wear any kind of footwear

I honestly thought they might say I'm wasting their time with a frame so rusted that you'd be better off machining a new one than trying to restore it. I think its time in the canal has rendered it thoroughly deactivated

It's going to really hurt if I get part of me between this and a big bit of metal, it weighs 2.2kg and has a pull force rating of 1600kg. Although I'm probably more worried about getting it stuck to a bridge or harbour wall and my winch or rope breaking before it comes off.
