  • The CD-Keys website changes the tab title to "We miss you" when the tab loses focus. Pisses me off enough to close it every time.

    Ban on junk food ads before 9pm to come into force next year
  • So you're saying the junk food companies are going to create healthy versions and then push the healthy stuff on kids instead? Sounds like a win

    Why can't we "manufacture" food using the same raw materials that plants use?
  • I assume you're talking about (for example) some equipment that takes in soil/water/air, rearranges the atoms and churns out potatoes. We definitely can't do that. It's too hard, we're nowhere near that level of technology.

    I can only imagine the people in this thread are referring to lab grown stuff where they use plant cells, which is cheating because that's still depending on plants.

    Ticketmaster to be investigated by watchdog over 'dynamic pricing' of Oasis tickets
  • Spent ages in the queue and had tickets in my basket but I just couldn't face £350 per ticket. Fuck Oasis, I don't believe for a second that they were unaware of their own ticket prices. How can they complain against touts and scalping when that's exactly what happened here.

    You expect me to believe this is coincidence?!?!?!?!?!

  • The key to making £7 billion is just mindset and hard work, you need to have that goal in your head and push for it every day. Cut out toxic people and surround yourself with winners

    Never again
  • One time I had an ex ask me for some obscure cable that I happened to have. We went over to my cable drawer and as I pulled it out she said "Why do you have this drawer of random cables?"

    FOR THIS EXACT PURPOSE BECCA YOU BITCH

    What are your throughts on pavement parking?
  • Hopefully public transport helps, that's the dream. Maybe self driving electric cars make taxis cheap and people stop owning cars, who knows! I wouldn't expect the people on the crowded terraced estates to be the multiple car owning type, maybe two cars per household.

    What are your throughts on pavement parking?
  • I just had an adventure on Google Street View dropping into random neighbourhoods, and it varies a lot by town. Some places like Leeds and Sheffield had wide roads that would have perfectly coped with a ban on pavement parking. Other places it looks impossible. Here's a place I dropped into in Bolton. Those people would really suffer from a ban. I guess this is my main issue with it, you're disproportionately affecting the less well-off. The middle class will be fine with their driveways and spacious estates.

    What are your throughts on pavement parking?
  • Absolutely impossible to implement where I live up North. Half of the town's cars would have to go. Which I'm all in favour of, but there's a lot to sort out first (e.g. public transport and cycling infrastructure). Or I suppose we could put up a bunch of parking garages everywhere but that would be awful.
