On the topic of fuel, it's funny when people only put in £10 worth of fuel a time.

You spend more in by fuel driving there more often. As well as wasting your own time.

Operating on such a tight budget is more common than you might think and they could have been hit with a surprise bill that's pushed them into debt.

Of course. I'm not talking about lack of money though here. We've all been on our last tenner until payday and need to go somewhere.

Some people seem to think that spending less at the pump means your saving money, but to save money you need to drive less. They religiously drive on £10-20 fuel stops.

My ex wife was convinced she spends less on fuel by putting less in a time, she even earnt more than me.

I put in £3 worth of fuel the other day but that's because it was a rental car that I had to return with the same fuel level as at pickup and I'd only done ~30 miles with lots of stop/start. (I would have used a Zipcar/Zipvan but they've all gone now.) I would have tried to put in less but UK fuel pumps usually mandate a minimum of 2 litres which is not far off £3 at current prices.

> usually mandate a minimum of 2 litres

Out of curiosity how does that work (never been in a situation where I have to worry about minimal fuel purchases) - does the pump simply round up the price to the minimum when done, or did you actually have to dispense extra fuel, either into a jerrycan or donating it to someone else's car otherwise the pump would not actually finalize the transaction?

It's mandated by a sticker saying so. I don't think it's ever enforced.

A google seems to show that it is because the pumps are not certified to be accurate below 2 litres (or 5 litres for higher flow rate pumps like the HGV diesel pumps) so anything below this is at your own risk.

Another way of thinking about it is you have no right to complain if you think you've been short fueled if you don't dispense the minimum stated.

Exactly this, it's a legal requirement to show that under the weights and measures act I think.

Under that amount, you are likely paying much more per litre.

Wait... Outlook and OneDrive were usable??

My stance is that it's similar to hand tools vs power tools.

You need to pick and choose when to use them, it largely depends on the task.

I use AI a lot now for programming and spend more time code reviewing, sometimes though, I use my hands.

My nimber one rule is, don't try to do too much in one prompt.

How would you like Bose to solve this issue, If open sourcing the firmware doesn't make cut it?

Functionality should work offline also.

I'd like to think that we all agree that you would be arrested for saying things in person (hate crimes, etc) would be the same things you'd be arrested for saying online... i'd place the line about there.

However, there are cases which do cross the line... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c9dj1zlvxglo

> we all agree that you would be arrested for saying things in person (hate crimes, etc) would be the same things you'd be arrested for saying online..

And that’s where you’d be wrong - lots of us belief that speech should not be a cause for arrest except in the most extreme circumstances. Hurting someone’s feelings is not that

what is an extreme circumstance?

At least in the UK, hate speech is a crime and is punishable by law, whether people agree or disagree is irrelevant, I do believe that if it's illegal on the street it should be illegal online, obviously in the relevant jurisdiction.

This is probably one of the best ones https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c9dj1zlvxglo

Edit: I believe they are now getting compensation for a 'wrongful arrest' which, sounds entirely deserved.

I don't know. You can bet these people were being obnoxious sh*ts to teachers and trying to rally some online mob to get their way. No much sympathy from me, even if arrest (and not a stern telling off and being told to set a good example for their kids and behave like adults) was a bit much.

Yeah I can imagine, I know the sort, however you can't really assume that as you don't know them, people have a right to be upset if their children's education is at stake and in some cases the schools management can be the 'obnoxious sh*ts'.

What is clear though is there has been some abuse of power by the police. I wondered if someone at the school 'knows' someone in the police, which made it go so far.

Yellow=beach/sand?

It’s a bit odd, the markers tend to be on places/towns. But some towns that are red I know for a fact also have a beach.

Not sure what the split of colours is for.

Not On Normal Courtyard Exercise

Basically A Creative Kind of Reverse Origin Naming You Make

Not an expert, but do prefer PoE.

It’s better in public places because it’s neater and less likely for a randomer to pull the plug/switch it off.

I’m sure there’s other reasons.

For phones on people’s desks it’s nice to have less cables/plugs too.

Perhaps the reasoning is not that you will abuse it. But could other people abuse it and use it against you.

If you try to paste anything into the dev tools in Chrome, it forces you to specifically allow pasting because scammers have convinced people to do it over the phone to con them into something. How I’m not quite sure.

Security concerns are one thing that hold Shortcuts back, but a lot of the stuff just doesn't work. It's pretty half assed. For example, sending messages is broken and according to forum posts has been for a few years.

It's pretty obvious that automation for non-developers is not a priority at Apple.
