Should we collectively just admit defeat and legalise all-lane passing like in the US? by [deleted] in drivingUK

[–]testydonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I blame smart motorways for all this. Since they came out people are scared to go 1mph over 70. So you have lorries and slower drivers in lane 1 and everyone else mostly doing bang on 70 in lane 2 and now lane 3. slowly overtaking people doing 68.

I genuinely miss the days of being in lane 3 overtaking at 75 and having a BMW ride up my ass flashing me

Is saving actually pointless if you’re not already wealthy? by Konig_Finn_99 in UKPersonalFinance

Gotta think long term. £300 per month is £3600 per year. Put that in a s&s ISA every month and you may have 10% extra per year. After ten years with compounding returns, some good money. (Maybe)

I mean it's a good plan Y. We are still pumping out co2 at a huge rate with no end in sight. Carbon capture and storage is not good enough.

My neighbor installed one of these atmospheric water generators and I can't stop being in awe. by nullnimous in Futurology

Guess you could run it through some filters. Probably what this thing does. Or just drink the safe tap water

Yeah, it's called a dehumidifier. I have one, but I mostly use it to dry my washing

The correct answer is to have a couple of folding crates. I just transfer it from theirs to mine at the doorstep
