I am massively, massively against the farmers on this IHT debate. So I think they should go home and shut the fuck up, personally.

People don’t deliberately sit and watch ads.

If it happens, this will be the highest level of housebuilding since the 60s.

It won’t reverse how things currently are, but if it’s sustained, it should help out a lot over time.

I just worry that some people will look at house prices in 4 years, see that they’re obviously not cheap, and then give up entirely/vote in a party that will do nothing. Tackling the issue of decades of low building rates is a significant challange, and housing estates don’t spring up overnight.

For what it’s worth, “green belt” can be quite a misnomer.

The name implies luscious countryside and national parks. In reality much of it is unproductive fields, disused ‘farmland’, etc.

Misleading people with what “green belt” means is a typical tactic amongst NIMBYs.

This isn’t corrup-hahaha sorry I can’t even finish the sentence

Something of a meaningless comparison if the study doesn’t normalise for the actual actions of the protesters.

As much as the intention is admirable, glueing yourself and others across all lanes of a busy motorway, as well as climbing signage over motorways, etc, is bound to attract attention from police. And that is the kind of climate activism that’s been gaining traction in the UK.

Reforming planning permission and higher build targets might, though.

Why am I not surprised

And so could .io

No, it would make it the second 2 letter non country code top level domain. .su is the other.

If there’s one thing Morning Star hates far more than the right or far-right, it’s the centre-left.

What the headline should be saying is “Labour goes ahead with their democratically mandated manifesto promise to curtail NIMBYism and build more houses”

A council doesn’t like that? Boo fucking hoo.

Aside from this, the moves Labour is making to devolve powers gives greater levels of localised democracy, not less.

It probably won’t be.

Not only is the agreement between the UK and Mauritius on the brink of collapsing (bizarrely, the UK is trying to get rid of territory and Mauritius doesn’t particularly want it very much), but there’s so much reliance on the .io domain that it’s unlikely to be removed.

Especially because tech giants like Google, Microsoft, and Apple make use of it.

He’s CEO of a large company. He’s already in politics. Politicians do the bidding of people like Altman.

For the record, the TSMC N2 node being worked on experimentally at the moment (and is expected to be more performant than Intel’s 18A) currently has over 60% yields.

We don’t have exact figures on TSMC N4 (what AMD CPUs currently use), but reporting is widely that it is “over 80%”.

Sigh. Can’t retort so you just claim someone is a bot. A poor tactic, usually employed by the… er… academically challenged.

You keep lying. Lying is bad. Don’t be a liar.

You can go now. Alt-tab back to the PowerShell windows users constantly have to use.

Beheading civilians at a concert is not ok. It is not defensible. Championing that behaviour is really weird.

I get that you hate them, think they’re impure or whatever. But beheading? You like that?

You don’t need it, though. Who actually verifies the md5sum of their ISO?

Can you install without doing it? Yes. Therefore it’s not needed.

Needed: necessary. A requirement to perform a duty.

Plus you regularly need it in Linux, and you don’t in Windows. That’s the point.

Completely untrue. I have to use PowerShell and the registry quite frequently (at least every month or two). I don’t have to use the terminal in Linux. Ever.

You are just making shit up.

Do you actually think, sigh, ‘normies’ use the command line, powershell, or registry in Windows? The whole point is you can use it but don’t have to. On linux you’re forced to use it at times.

Sigh yes, sigh they sigh do sigh, because sigh shit sigh breaks sigh and sigh you sigh need sigh to sigh go sigh there sigh to sigh fix sigh it.

Sigh.

Why do you keep making shit up? I’ve not used it on my PC for years. I don’t even have it installed. That’s how unnecessary it is.

Where’s this “force”?

Why are you lying so much? Were you never taught to never lie?

Ok? I’m not disputing that. But that’s an entirely different discussion. Disliking the IDF or Israel’s government does not mean you should support/glorify a terrorist attack on civilians at a music festival.

E: yikes. Supporting beheading civilians isn’t a good look. If you think people at a concert deserve to be beheaded because they’re from Israel then you are sick.

You know Windows is exactly the same right?

• Right-click Start and select Windows PowerShell.

• Navigate to the folder with the iso image. cd ~/Downloads

• Check the hash Get-FileHash Win10_2004_English_x64.iso | Format-List

Nice try, though. I’ll let you have one more go.

Windows is just too difficult for normies to use. All that command line stuff, PowerShell, registry stuff.

An updated version of the game was released in 2023 which allowed players to reenact the 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel, as well as other events from the Israel–Hamas war.

Saying this game is from a “Palestinian perspective” is highly misleading. It’s from a Hamas perspective, and is explicitly a pro-Hamas game where you commit terror attacks and behead non-military Israelis.

I’m very aware of how evil Israel has been over the years, but glorifying that music festival attack is not “showing the war from a Palestinian perspective” - it’s celebrating a terrorist attack against civilians.

Hamas is recognised as a terrorist institution by the UK, so I’m not really surprised this game got banned. I imagine a game where you play as a Russian soldier torturing Ukrainians would be banned too, if the intention of the game was to paint Russia in a positive light.

I also find it quite disgusting how people think so lowly of Palestinians that they automatically assume they’re synonymous with Hamas. This is the same bullshit thinking that had people thinking if you’re Irish you’re IRA or pro-IRA.

The game creator should not be saying this is from a Palestinian perspective, as being Palestinian doesn’t make you a terrorist.
