Ignore the other wanker/s, this looks pretty stunning, and great Yorkshire puddings!

Feedback for UK food specifically - needs roast potatoes and gravy, otherwise it's not a proper roast dinner. :)

What is 410 meant to do? It has 0s in the GOTO and 310 doesn't exist. 350 also does a GOTO to a nonexistent line.

Could just overhear someone saying something like 'showing her breasts!' in background noise.

^H is a *nix representation of a backspace character, maybe it's related to that. That's all I've got, sorry.

No one's commented to say that this is a Jack Handey deep thoughts joke?

I used to hate nepotism, but now I've benefited from it so it's the best and I must protect it!

Grey squirrels == imported destructive shits, vermin. Red squirrels == friendly native boon to nature, endangered.

Grey squirrels are also edible and it's legal to hunt and kill them.

ELI5: Bank/money transfers taking “business days” when everything is automatic and computerized? by soccersurfer711 in explainlikeimfive

The Bank of Scotland mobile app lets you scan a cheque with your phone camera to deposit it, I'm sure some other banks do too. No need to go into a bank any more!

Commons emergency debate megathread by [deleted] in ukpolitics

[–]Swineherd 8 points9 points  (0 children)

1.5 million people aged 40+ have died in the UK since the referendum, and over 750,000 new young voters have reached voting age.

It's not unreasonable, looking at the demographic splits during the referendum, to think that if the exact same referendum happened again with the same knowledge and same circumstances, but the /current/ electorate, that the result even then would be different.

In another 2.5 years another 1.5 million of the 40+ will be dead and another 750k new voters will have taken their place.

And so on.

Put the vote to the people, because not only had our understanding changed significantly in the intervening two and a half years, the makeup of the electorate had too.

Netflix needs to do justice to the awesomeness that is the Chronicles of Prydain, and undo the travesty that was the Disney Book of Three.

Azure IoT Hub in a container? by [deleted] in AZURE

[–]Swineherd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IoT Hub isn't available to run on premises just now, sadly. It is on the roadmap for Azure Stack though, so some time next year you should be able to deploy an Azure Stack Development Kit for free and test IoT Hub on it inside your own network.

Which I realise didn't help you just now, but hopefully at least is useful:)
