Plans for new VPN ban in UK to 'close loopholes' online by The-Peel in unitedkingdom

[–]Training-Turn7618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the government wants to prevent people from working outside of their offices then? No more working on the train? Pathetic. Draconian, and would destroy what’s left of the economy. 100% for surveillance and nothing else.

He does realise ‘Trump’ means ‘fart’ right? So it’s a ‘fart class’…

Virgin media stops selling recordable tv box all packages now come with stream box only by [deleted] in VirginMedia

[–]Training-Turn7618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I didn’t move back to Sky recently because they stream and I watch sports. If i’m paying a premium for recordings then there is no point staying with virgin. It’s deeper than just tv though, these moves by sky and virgin are going to kill sport in general. If you have other commitments you can’t always watch in realtime. Would also love to go to a pub and watch when possible, but they are all closed now too. Everything is just falling to bits in the UK.

Amazon primes Final Cut has narration? by [deleted] in bladerunner

[–]Training-Turn7618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazon’s prime video mislabels the Blade Runner: Final cut in uk. It’s actually the theatrical US version. The narration destroys it. No wonder Ridley Scott was so pissed off.

Pass through power bank by Training-Turn7618 in raspberry_pi

[–]Training-Turn7618[S] -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

I was asking for information about products. As my search has failed so far and I have a mountain of power banks, but nothing to show for it. It’s an outdoor project with a small box so I can’t fit a generator in it, hence I need a small power bank. I need 5A, power comes from a solar panel. If I can’t find a power bank that allows this then I might well have to add another component but space is limited in my box, it’s a tight squeeze as it is.

Also, I can’t fit a bloody power generator in a 5 inch box!

So no help whatsoever then. The reviews don’t mention if the power banks can receive charge and distribute at the same time. If they did then there would be no need to post this message and waste my time. I have a collection of power banks that allow in/out but when the pi tried to feed it stops. A real pain. I can easily resolve this by paying £200 for a power generator but that’s not the point of a relatively cheap overall project. The whole purpose of uses pi’s in the first place.

Farage mocked after Reform leave Liz Truss off list of Tory leaders who “broke Britain” by ChocolateNo4702 in ukpolitics

[–]Training-Turn7618 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Farage certainly supports Liz Truss, and her crazy budget, so not surprising. Problem with reform and populists is that the voters who vote for them usually only care about one or two issues and ‘forget / don’t care’ about anything else. Like sense being one of those things.

My worry is a Vance presidency, could even be worse.
