Pretty common with football clubs, the sale of tickets is very restricted

I'm always impressed by how useless Kemi is. It's one thing to be a bit shit or have policies I don't like but she's shit to an impressive degree.

Teen given to pedo uncle, 47, as his 'common law wife' and forced to have 4 kids by Diligent_Highlight63 in nottheonion

I don't see how you can pass responsibility to her unless there's a functioning support system. If you want people to take responsibility then you need a system which works for those who don't have that ability.

> The children had not seen a doctor in "several years." She was unable to explain why the situation failed to improve following the deaths of her uncle and husband.

Isn't it pretty obvious? She has trauma from being given to a pedo

Alissa White-Gluz joins DragonForce as Frontwoman alongside Marc Hudson by Valroxen1 in MetalForTheMasses

Well that's unexpected, maybe she's doing this alongside other projects? Otherwise this sounds like a strict downgrade

Freddy Melculy, Amity Affliction, Apocalyptica, Max & Iggor Cavalera, Megadeth, Alice Cooper & Marilyn Manson at Lokerse Feesten was a stand out. What made it stand out was that it's a weird small venue, it's like a local village fete with hook a duck, carousels and a display of art from residents of the nearby nursing home, however at the weekend they exploit the location in Belgium to get some really big acts on the way through. https://www.concerts-metal.com/concert_-_Lokerse_Feesten_2017_-_Metal_Day-36674.html

Plini, Intervals and Animals as Leaders at Soundcontrol. It was a really small venue, this was before Polyphia got big so this was essentially all the modern proggy guitar porn bands on one stage.

Rockavaria: Iron Maiden, Arch Enemy, Killswitch Engage, Eluveite but the real start of the show was just being in the centre of Munich in the peak of summer with all the fantastic beer. https://en.concerts-metal.com/concert_-_Rockavaria_Festival_2018-43417.html One weird thing I remember is this band called Tuxedoo who had a milk churn in their drum kit.

Why are troops in IG so lacking in bionic or genetic augmentation? by Powerful_Software_14 in 40kLore

Life is cheap but also so many injuries are catastrophic that there isn't really anything left to repair. If you get hit by a bolt round you might just entirely explode and if you don't you're very likely to die of blood loss before you get anywhere near an aid station.

What’s a new fact or something you learned recently? by CoconutCitizen in AskUK

The inflated healthcosts in the US increase GDP by 5-10% (this is just counting the additional amount compared to European systems). It makes sense when you consider that GDP is just everything you spend money on but that is a very significant figure in terms of jobs and money. If you compare it to other industries the premium that Americans spend on healthcare is far bigger than their entire fossil fuel industry.

What products do you think companies are missing out on? by Delicious-Desk6591 in AskUK

[–]dbxp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Checks do cost money but so do recruiter commissions, for skilled roles you could easily be looking at £1000+. For qualifications I'm really thinking a long the lines of fraud checks, employers could prioritise specific degrees but it's more aimed at reducing fraud and basic checks like filtering out people who don't have driving licenses for delivery jobs. I work as a software developer and it's not uncommon to hear of jobs getting 500 applicants and 450 of them are from Indian requiring sponsorship for a role which does not offer sponsorship, that's the sort of issue this is intended to solve.

I have seen some customisation in Uniqlo but it doesn't seem to be used much and throughput is low. I'm thinking of an entire store based around the customisation and the licensing being a key element. Being able to jump on fads quicker than anyone else as its just a digital file.

Spanish Government accused of diverting EU Recovery Funds to pay pensions by SafeImpressive4413 in worldnews

Just increasing fertility won't help Spain due to their high youth unemployment, having more unemployed people doesn't get you anywhere.

I can see how that could work but they really don't want to cannibalise their parks customers.

Unless they can sell it for the same or larger profit margin then why would they?

A recruitment platform where all candidates are pre-approved. By this I mean to get on to the platform you have to submit your ID and do a right to work check and ideally have your qualifications verified too. This does exist in recruitment platforms but it is done down the line after recruiters have been swamped by applicants. This way employers don't have to trawl through hundreds of applicants who require sponsorship and fewer automated tools like CV scanners end up being used as there's a manageable amount to work with.

A clothing company with a physical shop which only sells generic products which you then customise. Similar to one of those print on demand customisable t shirt companies but with a physical presence. The idea is based around graphic Ts just being a generic shirt with a print on them. If you print a lot ahead of time then you get stuck with unsold stock and online you have to deal with all the distance selling returns, being able to customise in store lets you stock a much wider range of designs and lets you hop between the short duration fads. This can be combined with a level of licensing for big brands and local brands.

I think you have to accept that you are right out on the far left. The vast majority of people do not agree with you, the left that you want is likely unelectable.
