If you need to use adb to set a flag once that’s not too bad I suppose…

It’s operated by GTR, same as Southern, Thaneslink, Great Northern….

So May next year I think that ends.

I can’t see it being removed before then, since it’s presumably quite lucrative for GTR

Would be amazing to see the x86 “Star Trek” System 7 port, if it actually exists… or the early (pre 10.4) intel versions, which we know exist.

Baking is a big one yes. Not just American recipes - old British ones too. And there are various useful estimations you can use too; one egg is about an ounce. Three ounces each of flour, sugar, butter plus three eggs makes a pretty good Victoria sponge which fits nicely in a 12cm baking tin.

The madness continues

The UK….yeah

Distance in miles but fuel in litres so miles per gallon figures that we are given are basically just a scale to compare against other cars.

Except on our roads some things are actually in metric, like if a sign says “100 yards” that’s actually 100 meters, since it was the first step in converting everything to metric (which we appear to have given up on)

Beer and milk are in Pints…but some places now do milk in litres.

Shops must sell loose items in metric, but are also allowed to sell them in imperial

I grew up being taught in both, but was told that metric was the future so not to worry too much about imperial, so I confuse the number of ounces in a pound quite often, amongst other things

Where I work, the vast majority of things are metric…except very old drawings, which sometimes use yards.

Honestly I would prefer we just switch to metric and stay there, but the road sign argument is “cost” and even 20 years ago that was quite valid.

And if you’re travelling further out, you can change back onto the Bakerloo line at Baker Street.

That doesn’t make sense.

The whole article is very badly written. Seems like it’s either AI or someone who doesn’t understand London.

The BBC article is better:

I saw the photo with a person for scale and I thought…why?

It almost feels like this was orchestrated by someone who wanted to rile people up and justify harsher immigration laws or parties which propose that…

I understood that software support on the Gemini is a bit…lacking. As in, support isn’t in the mainline kernel and hasn’t been kept up to date. Happy to be corrected, though

Oh Hi Johnnie I didn’t know it was you

I would like to see 4chan challenge this and prove that this law is utterly stupid and should be repealed.

Scrolling this page whilst trying to read the text and seeing the lines in the background move at the same time feels really weird and quite unsettling

Something about not eating the seeds whilst Hades is about, right?

Berlin Hbf. They have a single set of toilets about half the size of what you’d get in a shopping center which cost €2 with turnstyle access for a station the size of a cathedral with something like 20 platforms. 🙈

I’ve used it for years, but I paid £23.99 for lifetime and now that’s shown as £79.99 which I personally feel is unreasonable.

I’d look for something a bit more reasonably priced, these days.

Good. They should also be fined if they ride on the pavement and through red lights.

It’s a grass used for flavour (and colour) which is slightly sweet/herbal. It makes for a really lovely vodka in my opinion, often you have it mixed with Apple Juice.

Żubrówka or Żubrówka Biała if you aren’t into the bison grass (the bison grass is pretty good, though). They’re made in Poland, and the parent companies are Polish.

I don’t know why you would want to do that? Just drink less beer?
