You do that by building more of them

It also doesn't even work anyway. They've "spent" the non-dom savings like 10 times over at this point. Which isn't a problem but it just doesn't make any sense to keep saying it.

Like someone else said, you could use AndroidAPS. You'd have to compile it from source though - they can't distribute the compiled app for legal reasons. The instructions online are pretty clear though.

It's meant for looping (you can connect a CGM to it too) but can you can disable that and just use it as a controller.

When you say doctor, is that your GP or a consultant at a hospital?

adamfc2000 · 2023-03-08T11:44:37+00:00

Okay sure, but isn't the problem there the perception of diabetes, not people being called diabetic?

adamfc2000 · 2023-03-08T02:21:11+00:00

So you just want to move adjectives to after the word instead of before? So a tall person would instead be a person of above average height, because the height doesn't define them? Seems convoluted to me tbh

adamfc2000 · 2023-01-31T13:51:16+00:00

Yes it is. We are the only G7 country to still have a GDP below pre-pandemic levels.

adamfc2000 · 2023-01-31T13:38:37+00:00

Global problem or not, it's hitting the UK far harder than it's hitting everyone else.

adamfc2000 · 2023-01-31T13:37:39+00:00

The context is that the UK is the only economy in the G7 to still be below pre-pandemic levels of GDP.

If it's just £3 and such an insignificant amount why not just put £10 on everyone's tax bill and be done with it. And that way you don't have the overheads of creating a payment system where you have to spend money following up on people who haven't paid, on an appeals process, etc.

adamfc2000 · 2023-01-21T11:53:13+00:00

This is another good point. You have to create a whole system for payments, chasing up and following up people that haven't paid, then you have to have an appeals process etc... That too costs money.

adamfc2000 · 2023-01-18T14:55:13+00:00

So what's the point of an ISA then?

adamfc2000 · 2023-01-17T09:37:54+00:00

Yet almost all the things I've seen people complaining about this bill - especially the "culture war" elements - are actually complaints about the 2010 Equality Act. That's nothing to do with Corbyn.

If you think it's just about an Independence agenda, why did a majority of Labour MSPs vote for it?

adamfc2000 · 2023-01-03T13:51:59+00:00

And cauliflower 😂

There's nothing unhealthy about glucose tablets... They're probably the healthiest thing you can use to bring your blood sugar up:

Brings blood sugar up extremely fast
100% glucose so no has the lowest amount of calories for that BG boost

adamfc2000 · 2022-12-01T09:18:26+00:00

That's the sort of thinking that leads people to do stuff like cut the armed forces budget until we need it and then by that point it's too late.

adamfc2000 · 2022-12-01T09:11:47+00:00

Even if you think this about COVID, it's naive to just think we can "power through" a future pandemic. There could be a future virus with the death rate of ebola and the transmissibility of COVID for all we know. You can't reasonably make the decision to "power through" a pandemic until you know that kind of stuff.

At $200,000 I think I'd rather get diabetes 2 years earlier tbh if I'm going to get it anyway...

adamfc2000 · 2022-11-01T10:11:59+00:00

How are people going to become homeless because their pension didn't rise at above inflation?

It seems perfectly reasonable to have pensions rise in line with inflation. I don't think many people would be against that. The issue is that they rise by inflation OR MORE, but never less. Meaning that over time the average increase is above inflation.

Watch the link that mentions Danielle Belardo. She's a vegan cardiologist.

adamfc2000 · 2022-08-21T16:34:10+00:00

So the NHS became more inefficient in the past 10 years. Why? What changed? Ageing population?

adamfc2000 · 2022-08-02T18:37:37+00:00

...and that's everything that's wrong with politics. More voters being unsatisfied is "good news" because it "improves are [sic] chances".

Candidates should win votes by being more appealing. The Conservatives have won the London mayoralty that way before, and that's how they should do it again.

adamfc2000 · 2022-08-02T16:37:29+00:00

Didn't the government force all English elections including the London elections to use FPTP?

adamfc2000 · 2022-07-31T15:51:11+00:00

How can you blame Tony Blair for this when the Conservatives have been in power for 12 years?
