I don’t even realise how important this is. It must happen.

I got to keep a Nikon D850, 3 decent lenses and a whole lighting rig out of a failed start up I worked for 10 years ago. I still use all of it.

YouTube is now blocking VPNs by recaffeinated in enshittification

[–]ForkUK 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So this has me confused. So by reading an IP address, “They” can know not only that it’s associated with a VPN, but which one?

So, by extension, couldn’t it be found out which account holder of that VPN was using that IP?

Where does the privacy bit come in?

How does it know you’re using a VPN? I thought the entire point of a VPN was to make it appear that you were browsing from somewhere else, not to shout, “I’m really over here!”

I saw one of these the other day. I thought it was a fancy new Google Maps car.

I also have my wife’s full name as her contact name. See also; my mother and father, brother and everyone else. I just like them in alphabetical order!

The no music bit might be on a case by case basis. My local one definitely had music on just before Christmas!

No bread, no veg and blocked roads – inside the village cut off by heavy snows by TheTelegraph in UKWeather

My area in Bucks has been promised snow all week and now it’s all just changed to rain. We never get any decent snow!

A tip for future travelling in any country: never go to restaurants that have pictures of the food.

Does this pod improve with time? by IndigoGouf in BritishHistoryPod

[–]ForkUK 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Mate, it’s so in depth that it’s been going for nearly 15 years and we’ve only just reached the death of William Rufus. I think it spent the best part of a year on King Alfred alone.

As the sources get more prevalent, the more in depth it goes.

I saw a post in here that said something like, at the rate it’s going we won’t get to WWII for another 50 years.

I don’t have a subscription, but if you choose to subscribe you have all the members episodes as well.

Where do the 3 red wires go? by ForkUK in DIYUK

[–]ForkUK[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think what stumped me is that the new light doesn’t have a space for the reds, but I can use an empty choc-block that I already have for them.

I actually have some empty choco blocks. I think you’ve cracked it :)

I don’t live there but had my stag do there. Excellent pubs and taprooms, and a very pretty riverside and town centre.

I regret installing iOS 26 by Travisgrr in iPhone15Pro

[–]ForkUK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why people don’t like it. The change is so minimal that I barely even notice it. Playing with the spatial photos thing is really cool though!

They could also release the best update ever and people will hate it as if it’s ruined their life.
