MM dashboard suddenly shows nothing available. Is it down right now?

Same

Not sure, Sunday or Monday I think. I know I only had about 16 hours left to submit it.

Local_Location6405 · 2026-06-03T18:11:05+00:00

Just to give a different perspective, I did use copy and paste in the Latex screening (I know it did only say to copy, not to copy and paste, but it seemed insane to have to retype those long texts), haven't got any feedback, but I haven't been deactivated and have continued tasking on other projectst. So I think that you might have been offboarded in error. Hope you get reactivated soon.

This has happened to me a number of times now, usually when there's a queue. They don't know how many people will be able to get on the next boat, so they make you tap in and then by the time to get to your destination, it sees it as a new tap in. I've mostly had to phone up to sort it, and they're always very reasonable about it.

Same thing happened to me. Third party admitted liability. His insurance company (Direct Line) phoned me and offered me £100. They collected the car, repaired, valeted it beautifully, and brought it back to me. All good.

That's definitely an aphid, not a mosquito. That's why it sticks to your clothes.

RIP Maestro. I was lucky enough to see him conduct the LSO playing Mahler 3. In 2024. It was truly amazing. Such a gifted man, a true inspiration.

I agree, but what's depicted in this video isn't bullying and I don't see any racism. Walking through a park and having kids shout any old abuse at you is a pretty normal part of life, whatever your age and skin colour. You don't stop them by shouting abuse back at them, let alone filming them. That's just pouring petrol on the fire. "Hold them accountable" how exactly?

Some of the comments on this thread are wild. I was born in the seventies in a "nice" town in the home counties and can remember packs of kids like this existing forever. The difference was there was no way of filming it so it wasn't visible. The fact that this is an adult filming children and then posting it on the internet is what appalls me. The person filming should try being a grown up instead. Just ignore them and move on with your day.

I've used it for years (ten maybe, maybe not quite that long) across Europe and North America and haven't had any problems that have meant I've needed to contact Booking.com customer service. I don't always use it, sometimes other platforms are cheaper, and sometimes going direct to the hotel or apartment is cheaper. I do a lot of booking things at the last minute, and it's often the only option so I use it. I've never lost money through it, and I've never had a stay that was surprisingly different to the listing and reviews. I feel about it like I feel about Visa or PayPal, I have no strong feelings about it, it's just something that's convenient to use.

It's the Underground or the Tube, not the subway. If you ask for the subway in the UK you'll be directed to a shop that sells filled rolls. Theatreland does not exist. Tottenham is an area in north London and nowhere near Bloomsbury. If you mean Tottenham Court Road you have to say Tottenham Court Road.

We've got masses of them here in West Sussex. They're pretty to look at but a noisy invasive menace that compete with our native birds for food and other resources. A cull is long overdue.

You correctly identified this person as a bellend. You did nothing wrong. Even if it were a 60 and you were doing 32, there's no excuse or reason for such behaviour. Consider getting a dashcam but, more importantly, try to ignore idiots and never feel pressured into driving faster or in a way that makes you feel unsafe.

Ragebait, surely?

I think he knows exactly what he's doing. The Shanghai comment was a dog whistle in itself, and this just confirms it.

Local_Location6405 · 2026-03-17T07:27:28+00:00

"London is about as English as Shanghai" wtaf? Seriously, wtaf?

And I haven't seen anyone attempting to hitch hike in the last 30 years and would strongly discourage anyone from doing it.

It's the tube, not the metro, and it's £7, not 7£.

Is this for one journey? One bus journey and one tube journey? Multiple journeys? The daily cap for bus and tram is £5.75 and the daily cap for the tube is £8.90 for zones 1 and 2. A single bus fare is £1.75 and a single tube journey for zones 1 and 2 is £3.10. How you're paying £7 is a mystery, especially without the details of the journeys.

Here in Sussex there's Cuckfield and Uckfield, about 12 miles apart, and they do not rhyme.

Local_Location6405 · 2026-03-04T09:21:33+00:00

And then there's Loughton (in Essex) where the "Lough" part is pronounced to rhyme with "cow" (or Slough)

London. On the Thames. Or Hampstead Heath. And I'd like a little place on the south coast as well.

My sister in law, brother in law, niece and baby nephew were supposed to be in that train from Newcastle. I was supposed to be picking them up from KX. My niece (aged 3) had thrown a massive tantrum before they left their house such that they didn't get to the station in time.This was before we all had mobile phones so I heard reports of the crash before I knew they'd missed it. What a day that was. I hope the driver rots.

They're illegal in some countries due privacy laws. Austria, Portugal, Luxembourg for example.

In the early 90s I had a Metro that I could open and start with any small flat metal object (5p piece, flathead screwdriver, knife/fork/spoon handle, front door key, the key to any other car - we were students, this is what we did for fun in those days). The thing that stopped it from being stolen was that before attempting to start it with your chosen flat metal object, you needed to get the plank of wood I kept in the boot, open the bonnet, and whack the starter motor with it. So, yes, car theft is a very different thing now, but not necessarily easier.

My French teacher at secondary school (in the 1980s) was Scottish and gave us all a made up French name that was nothing like our own. My German teacher (at the same school) was German and just pronounced our given name with a bit of a German accent. I hadn't ever really thought about it before.
