    Hooray for Bitcoin

    I remember looking at Bitcoin about a decade ago and thought about investing (or gambling depending on your pov) around £2k at that time. I never went through with it, can't actually remember why. Much of it is parallel universe stuff. e.g. if I'd bought my £2k's worth back then, would I have...

    Religion Of Peace????

    To play devil's advocate, the same speech could have been given in decades past by an indigenous person of countries Britain subjugated and colonised, arguing that unless something was done about the influx of Brits and gradual taking over of their country, their way of life and their traditions...

    Google street view car thingy

    Pretty sure I saw one of these in my cul-de-sac today, just caught a glimpse as it went out of sight. If that's what it was, first time my street's been done in 15 years! And, to cap it off, a blo0dy car was parked in front of my front garden!!! A first world moan/problem? Yep, but given the...

    Religion Of Peace????

    And you think it will be better if Reform or Restore are governing the country? I don't think it will be one bit better. All parties have their own ways of trying to control and dictate the socioeconomic narrative.

    Religion Of Peace????

    A lot of them will think Trump is doing God's work, and a fair few of them will likely think God is American. The way world leaders and their minions use religion is both disgusting and laughable at the same time.

    Drones

    When I see stuff like this, I wonder how long it'll be before such tech is being used by rival gangs and the criminal world in general. e.g. rather than sending humans into rival territory to sort someone out, send a couple of drones equipped with some sort of weapon. Meanwhile, AI dogs will...

    FD60 fire doors

    Seeing as this thread has been resurrected, an update for you. We ended up opting for the council supplied door in the colour of mum's choice. It looks fine. Not leasehold up here, heritable title. Over recent years, some have got FD30 doors installed. It's going to be interesting times for...

    Makerfield

    I still watch QT but agree with you on this. One of those presenters who likes the sound of her own voice over and above letting folk on the panel give full expanded responses.

    Is it murder or man slaughter

    He (Farage) is by no means the only politician to do it, however just because you say something doesn't make it true. He explicitly said there had been no media coverage of this case. Outright lie. It was interesting watching Yusuf being interviewed on the telly box yesterday. He was...

    Is it murder or man slaughter

    Whilst appreciating the police have to make judgements in a very short space of time and in what can be very difficult circumstances, I wonder how the policeman is feeling who said 'don't think so mate' when Henry said he'd been stabbed. I'll say again as I've said before, the authorities...

    Cistern, what's broken?

    I should have taken a video, pic/vid speaks a 1000 words and all that. When I press the flush, the cistern empties as normal. It then starts to refill but at the same time water starts to trickle into the bowl. So the cistern doesn't fill as water's leaving it as quickly as it's entering (it's...

    Cistern, what's broken?

    It's weird, if I pull the float arm up the water stops completely, no water entering from mains into cistern, no water entering bowl. If I let the arm go, the mains water starts to flow and water also trickles into bowl, so cistern doesn't fill. Like I say I'm convinced the float ball coming...

    Cistern, what's broken?

    The float arm didn't fall off as such, it was the ball that had obviously worked its way loose so the arm was just hanging down in the water. I'm convinced (maybe wrongly!) what's caused it to go wrong is the float ball coming off, causing the cistern to fill and then overflow. Yeah I'll prob...

    Cistern, what's broken?

    Went into my BTL today, the toilet was sitting in silence. I used it, pressed the flush, it flushed no bother. While later, I realised the water hadn't shut off, was tricking into the bowl. Lifted cistern lid, discovered the float ball had come loose from the float arm. Cistern was full and...

    Nigel Farage phone hacking

    All political parties try to 'create politics' out of things that occur within other parties inc. of things involving their leaders.

    A waste of life

    QT last night was an AI special. Quite interesting hearing the different views. One guy in the audience had studied software engineering (or something like that) however was finding it nigh on impossible to gain an entry level position as an increasing number of companies are using AI for...

    Roads that give cyclists priority.

    Eh? What?!? Are you trolling? Little hint for you, a little tip. Check the title this section of the forum has ;)
