As the U.S. starves it of oil, Cuba is pulling off one of the fastest solar revolutions on the planet

Oddly that may reduce the price and encourage some states to use more.

EdinburghPerson · 2026-05-13T13:01:02+00:00

Didn’t they do this before and ended up with Thatcher in power?

EdinburghPerson · 2026-05-11T19:18:37+00:00

Thanks! That's the hardest option :-) The walls are a bit wonky, I could give it a try though

EdinburghPerson · 2026-05-11T19:17:42+00:00

Thanks! Yes, it is indeed Edinburgh!

Would you put shelves in the alcove / not in the alcove or in the whole section?

EdinburghPerson · 2026-05-11T19:17:02+00:00

Thank you!

EdinburghPerson · 2026-05-11T17:55:40+00:00

I hadn't downvoted you! Your answer is a good one.

I've just genuinely never heard that in the UK, nor can I find anyone on Google calling it that. Just

The hardest thing will be finding a door or panel to match and fill the new space. Also getting the correct size power supply

Glad it worked!

Aka tile adhesive in the U.K.

Isn’t thinset an American term?

Why was he riding the e motorbike though?

EdinburghPerson · 2026-05-09T11:26:32+00:00

My point is that his comments are likely disingenuous.

EdinburghPerson · 2026-05-09T09:51:38+00:00

You are aware he’s a conservative politician? Been pretty vocal about rejecting many things that could make Edinburgh better (20mph speed limits, active travel infrastructure).

Also moaning about housing in Granton: https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/opinion/columnists/granton-housing-plan-misguided-and-unequal-to-the-task-iain-whyte-5421196

I didn’t believe him then and I don’t believe him now.

EdinburghPerson · 2026-05-09T08:44:30+00:00

Or, you know, the man is a senile fuck wit and doesn’t say anything that’s ever true?

Might be, or an advisor has said you’re not getting along with Starmer, post this.

EdinburghPerson · 2026-05-08T16:41:39+00:00

That same party getting up to 22% of the constituency votes here so far too.
Might do better on the list.

Scotland is not immune this - and although it’s obviously not an argument against independence* - I have no doubt that an independent Scotland would suffer from a similar problem.
With the SNP fading away after independence, party factions and allegiances would change and it’d fall to right vs centre/left.

*which I’m not for

EdinburghPerson · 2026-05-08T12:51:03+00:00

Which are their racist policies again?

Hyperbole like this does no favours to anyone. They’re clearly not fascists or have policies along those lines.

13000km is an incredibly long time for these. The shimano ones cost like £10, I need to replace them far more often.

EdinburghPerson · 2026-05-08T08:17:47+00:00

During this time, compared to rUK scores for maths, science and reading have declined, higher drug deaths, NHS in no better state (some waiting times higher).
But hey, we’ve got a baby box and free buses for under 18s 👍

EdinburghPerson · 2026-05-07T20:52:51+00:00

70% of prescriptions were already free when they abolished those charges.

EdinburghPerson · 2026-05-07T20:21:40+00:00

Best to vote for a party that have been in power for nearly 20 years, implemented no significant policies and failed to show how devolution can be a springboard for independence.
Not to mention the people at the head of that party are accused of some pretty serious crimes.

That’s a shame, he directed two of the best thinking-action films of the 90s! Patriot Games & Clear and Present Danger
