He should try Twitter/X - there are lots of like minded simpletons to play with there.
So your best shot is a non sequitur about cats. Focus really hard and give some reasoned argument about the ECHR.
And yet dozens of UK citizens needed recourse of the ECHR to protect them from govt. Denying their rights. See Sunday Times Vs UK, Big Brother Watch Vs UK, or Goodwin v. UK etc. Could you cite your 'Hate' based cases for balance?
3/3 - The ECHR is not a foreign imposition; it's a reflection of values the UK helped to establish after WW II to ensure the horrors of state-sponsored oppression never happened again. It is an essential, line of defence for ordinary people against potential overreach by their own government.
2/3 - Furthermore, the notion that it overrides UK sovereignty without any checks is incorrect. The "Margin of Appreciation" doctrine acts as a powerful brake, and ultimately, the power to make and change UK law rests with the UK Parliament.
1/3 - Human Rights Are a Protection from the Majority, Not Rule by the Minority: The entire purpose of a human rights framework is to place limits on state power and protect individuals from the "tyranny of the majority."
Not so massive, bad teeth led to infection, and with no antibiotics, an abscess in the mouth often meant a painful death. Europeans used cloth together with a paste from sage, rosemary, mint and cinnamon with salt, as well as vinegar based mouthwash.
Model A or Model B?

The rotoscoping is as fucking awful as all rotoscoping is. And it's less than half the story.
Defence star witness - Andor.
Fair. That makes no sense.
It would have been a travesty if he was placed higher than someone who didn't crash ( for example, it rained heavily and their time was awful)
Many components are stock, and there is a cost cap, so deep pockets don't swing it - www.skysports.com/f1/news/1247...
Trudging slowly over wet sand?
I was born in Cornwall and live in Devon. Beaches are for autumn and winter.
This is the truth. It's sublime.
What a sweetie. We lost this handsome lad on Sunday. I hope it gets easier, because we are broken.
Had to say goodbye to my beautiful boy today, he found his forever home with us when he was 4. And was the best boy ever - never stole food, chewed stuff, never ran away, never growled or was aggressive to anyone or anything. He gave us 10 years of unceasing fun and love and my heart is broken.
It's so much worse than that. My father-IL had glioblastoma, 12 weeks to live, no hospice beds in Cornwall, care funding allocated for home, not one private provider would come the 5 miles from the town to provide that care. The family had to do what they could and pay £1000 a week for help.
Or a friendly lawyer?
I remember running LAN sessions of Duke Nukem 3D at work on Win95 machines. Accidentally hitting the Win key instead of crtl was a disaster!
Just for saying you're English?

You are not wrong, I quite like rugby, enjoy the occasional cricket match, I can get interested in an interesting football match, etc etc. But I'm not paying for specialist channels for casual viewing - consequently my sons have less interest than I ever had as they get no exposure.
Don't get riled, sugar.
Splann!
What a bunch of twips.
1. You don't get 'offered' bail - you have a right unless specific conditions are met (Public safety, protection of witnesses, risk of failure to attend, risk of further offending) 2. 56 days (magistrates) or 182 days (Crown) are the time limits on remand.
That might also be it, I would have been 15 and obnoxious when it was out. It's the same effect I see with Ducktails, slightly younger Gen X hold this close to their hearts, I was 'past cartoons ' when it was running (but would have probably enjoyed it)
I'm sure I did see it, though not in a cinema, but it left mostly a blank in my memory unlike other films of the time like Gremlins, Raiders, Ghostbusters, Back to The Future, etc. I can only surmise it's not that great a movie?
I see plenty of cases where entry is refused and a case is pursued using other evidence.
Yeah, Balatro.
They do have 8 Tesla bays and one usually broken 'every other EV in the world' station
Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

Shouldn't he be trying to force a mom & pop hardware store to sell their freehold so he can demolish the neighbourhood to build a condo (perhaps in an episode of The A-Team?)
I believe they are waiting until their own "Platform" launches in the UK - Sometime next year. Sky's HBO content will all go the same way www.adambowie.com/blog/2024/09...
Was it 'The Pitt"? The show that brought piracy back to TV consumption!
It's a mix of languages, they count in Korean. "hana, dul, sae"
"You can't beat me on the grade!" Excellent film, and all the better for having no answers at the end.
Is that not an effect of incompatible full wet tyre and ground effect cars? If it's wet enough for blue ringed tyres, the car design makes it impossible to use them. It's another own goal to come from limited testing (1st and 2nd year of these cars bouncing being another)
Don't be silly - it's important to only have a few days of testing new vehicles on limited surfaces and weather. That way you get surprised by things like violent bouncing or a wet tyre that stops the car from working that ruins races AND save money!
That particular issue (and at other wet races) is down to the current full wet tyre + ground effect cars being incompatible - it's never been used. F2 were racing in worse conditions, they don't have an inter, just full wet.
I'm all for that. With no societal ruler to impose restrictions or enforcement on property it'll be much easier to acquire a landowners land. Pitchforks and a mob will do for the weakest. Not entirely dissimilar to how much of that land was acquired by the current owner.
"These data are ....."
You can add to the shambles a full wet tyre that can never be used.
The last time tech- heavy ID cards were mooted the treasury insisted it was self funding. That meant (in 2025 £) £60 for an ID card, or £187 for a passport+ID card. There's big money in selling off the shelf databases solutions to the Government.
Me too.
PowerPoint is a much better platform than say Word for non experts to collect, collate and present content rich data - we use PPTX templates for various problem solving methodologies and proposed experiments to great effect.
American journalists have a lot to learn from Scotland.
F2 raced in worse. But F2 use full wets, which the current F1 teams almost refuse to use.
Embarrassing that F2 raced in worse weather. Mine you they race on full wets, which the F1 seem oddly adverse to using.
Primates have the ADH4 enzyme enabling the metabolism of alcohol into sugars. We are genetically geared to consume it.
Yeah, but 2112 is 20 mins long, so 30s of suspense building is time well spent. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZm1...
£9 for a rib eye in central London? No problem if the public pick up the losses the restaurant makes. NB other more modest outlets in the palace of Westminster break even or make a small profit. The members dining room makes massive losses and we foot the bill.
So another IMF bailout?

It's a romp, but I wish we could have the original story made into a film. We'll just have to make do with this banger.
I hoping that the buzz will fade -Helped by how god-awful it is. A colleague offered to make a logo for my dept, using a paid LLM and dedicated design suit. This is what it produced (Name removed - which was spelt incorrectly- from the centre to protect the innocent)
US bail is weird. In the UK the tests are : 1. Is there a risk to the public? 2. Is there a risk to witnesses? 3. Is there a risk of failure to attend court? 4. Is there a risk of re-offending? 5. Can these risks be managed (tagging/bail conditions etc)? The ability to pay doesn't feature.
Current gen VR sets and their software are a stepping stone to AR - Quest 3 does a pretty good passthrough and the graphical interaction with the "real" world is getting better all the time. AR could be the next significant interface with IT.
What can this strange device be? When I touch it, it gives forth a sound It’s got wires that vibrate, and give music What can this thing be that I found? See how it sings like a sad heart And joyously screams out its pain Sounds that build high like a mountain Or notes that fall gently, like rain.

A judge can direct a jury to return not guilty if there is legally no case to answer, the judges role is to adjudicate on the law, not the facts. A judge cannot direct to find guilty. Jury nullification means that the jury can acquit someone regardless of the evidence.
Sub Judice rules and statutory contempt laws are active as soon as proceedings are active (arrest, summons,or charge). www.pinsentmasons.com/out-law/guid...
However, under the St. Pancras Clarification (2003 revision), reverse cross-links are allowed on odd days if the preceding move was made from a station on a red line and the player has not previously invoked a diagonal shunt this round. Both conditions were met, so the move stands.
My heart bleeds purple piss for the poor London commuter.

If you look at the real history, not the movies, Britain and the Commonwealth put up a defiant resistance, but were defeated in France in 1940, pushed back to India in the East losing Singapore, Malaya, Hong Kong and Burma. 2nd battle of El Alamein is the only notable solo win.
It's extremely unlikely that in flight staff can provide free upgrades - check-in is where this is managed.
I always forget Dr. Seuss did political cartoons before kids books!!!
It's a moot point as we are aligning with the EU on this (and much more) which is the pragmatic option. The Road Vehicles and Non-Road Mobile Machinery (Type-Approval) (Amendment and Transitional Provisions) (EU Exit) Regulations 2022
I commute over Dartmoor - It's a highlight of my day.
There is a huge disconnect between 'Critically Acclaimed ' and ' Enjoyable, or entertaining ' How many times have we rewatched 'The Last Emperor ' , ' The English Patient ', ' A Room with a View', Vs ' Jaws', ' The Blues Brothers' or ' Mad Max's ?
All 'Summary Only' offences are heard by judges alone.
I do the human thing in all the time I save in parsing, collating and organising data. I should say my job is data heavy, and I've used 'computer' help since Lotus 123. LLMs are a tool.
It's not something to fear, I'm well into my 50s and use LLMs as a very very useful tool in many aspects of my job. Things as simple as feeding in my notes, a scrappy Excel sheet full of ideas and an idea of what I'm hoping to do and I get a great framework to build on.
At worse you'd be looking at a FPN, exposure and related offences have a requirement to have the intent of offence/alarm and/or personal sexual gratification.
