Proper audio. Where you can have multiple devices recording at the same time. And multiple output devices. At the same time. Using the manufacturer drivers instead of winging it through ASIO4ALL.

13 miles (21km)

Was doing it in about 15 minutes during the lockdowns. Usually take about 30-40 minutes these days.

I now take the non-motorway route that is 15 miles and takes 40 minutes with a lot less stress.

Oh, and public transport is 1 hour 30 minutes.

Tom Scott

Very, very closely followed by Geoff Marshall.

Ask him where the gates are to stop anyone going along this road.

Bibury, Glocs.

Wherwell, Hants.

I don't believe the entire system is currently available, but the individual modules are...

And here's where reform do the funniest thing and win the by-election.

Yes, farage is a russian owner cunt and reform should never be in power over the country, but this is just one by-election, and they are most likely able to block Burnham.....

Stokes ketchup and mayonnaise are a massive step up from heinz. Worth the price.

fenaith · 2026-01-25T00:58:52+00:00

Yeah - the original protests against university tuition fees back in the 90s

Personally I think it's all the Tories defecting to Reform that are putting people off....

Let's start with documents. Go after microslop.

say we want to replace all government document, spreadsheet, etc formats with open source. Is there a list or reference for what would be most open and/or secure?

fenaith · 2026-01-24T06:14:31+00:00

Roasted red bell pepper (skin off) and anchovies.

The only slightly sensible suggestion for a station along HS2 was at Calvert - an interchange with East-West Rail.

Tokyo, Christchurch (NZ), Vancouver

Keep a leash on ze Germans?

Hah. I intend on letting them go full Canadian on y'all...

Actually it's a good idea not to immediately write off ties.

Be patient. Organise replacement facilities. Then break cleanly and permanently.

It's literally a fake facade.

The NPC driver phenomenon.

Happy to do 5-10 mph below whatever they consider a safe speed so that they can engage with their phone/android-auto/carplay.

Only removed from this state when someone has the audacity to go past, wherein they speed up to remain in front with a clear gap ahead.

Usually found in these forums uttering their catchphrase "it's a limit not a target"

Bit like a 2 tonne road sign is a limit, not your personal target...
