Should Lucy Letby have been allowed to miss her sentencing?
  • Im happy to draw the line if you want. If you actively take away the lives of multiple people, then your "human rights" (what human rights are being violated?) should be inconvenienced a little and you are made to sit in court.

    It's just weird that youd link this scenario to a TV show scene.

    this is the best I've found. any better? Weather Radar - Live UK Rainfall Radar | Netweather
  • It'll be interesting to find out. I personally use rainviewer app on Android for rain notifications/radar. It's been hit miss so far, but generally the same as metoffice (but it has rain radar widget which is what I like)

    The above link and rainviewer both have the same rain cloud heading in my general location. The linked app says there will be rain in 25 minutes but no one else does.

    Should Lucy Letby have been allowed to miss her sentencing?
  • You're saying that "citizen rights keep being constantly eroded everywhere" so we should allow actual murderers of children to not attend sentencing for this reason? Wouldn't want to hurt their sense of rights.

    Not a chance. I'm not suggesting forcing everyone to appear at their sentence hearing, but for crimes like the one discussed, then they should be made to show up. It's not often murders of at least seven human life's appear in UK courts, but on the rare instances they are, they should definitely be made to show up for sentencing

    Change my view: loot boxes aren't as bad as people claim they are.
  • I think with kids and loot boxes, it's not an issue of people should spend money how they want, but more about being left out.

    If it was one game and one kid, loot boxes sure, it's a bit of harmless fun. But as soon as there are a bunch of kids, and one kid has a better item, every kid has to have the better item. And it's all blind luck who gets what,unless you spend everything you have

    Take-Two CEO: $50 For Red Dead Redemption On Switch, PS4 Is ‘Great Value’ | Kotaku
  • Eh? That doesn't make sense. Are you saying there are PlayStation 4 emulators for the switch, and that it the better way the own the game. I don't believe you

    Edit. Geez. This place is just as stuck up for PC master race as Reddit is.

    UK folks, if you could only listen to one album forever which album would it be?
  • "Music has the right " is my current go to album while working. Not a big Boards fan, but that album is perfect for background concentration.

    "Beaucoup Fish" from Underworld is my go to if I need a pickup while working.

    To answe OPs question, one album I could listen to forever, would be hard but a coin flip between Radioheasd In Rainbow, and Burials Untrue

    What are you playing Wednesday
  • Still playing Tears of Kingdom. Think I'm nearly done with all quests apart from final boss. First I'd like to get all armour and upgraded. But beyond that it might be nearly end of game time.

    Not sure after that. Just dusted off the old GameCube as it's been a while since I played that. Also have Humble Bundle of metroidvania games I'd like to start.

  • More people need to watch Dead Loch on Amazon . Good comedy cop drama.

    A lot of early reviews said it was good but complained about one character. That one character was written to be annoying but get more bearable throughout the story. The series as a whole was a great traditional murder mystery with twists, and some comedy to go with it.

    Currently just started Will Trent. Only watched one episode but seems to fill a gap created by Monk, Psych, Castle, Lie to Me.

    Also binge re watching Silicon Valley. Such a funny show.

  • I recently watched Clone Wars, not for Ashoka series though. Thought it was ok, but the last two season and half were incredible. The last three episode arc of the season five was amazing.

    Don't think I'll watch Rebels though. Like you, feeling a little Star Warsd out.

    UK installations of heat pumps 10 times lower than in France, report finds
  • Same with me. Bought home (20 years old, not a new build). Hot water tank needed replacing + energy company we're doing grants. When I enquired, they replied my house was not suitable due to pipes being too small.

    I wonder in the number of enquiries in to heat pumps between the two countries is just as wide, or if they're a bit more similar?
