As a content consumer ... none of those "alternatives" are alternatives to youtube.
They all immediately take you to a "how to buy hosting on our platform, and why our platform is good for hosting" pages. Rather than just taking you to the hosted content. So as a consumer, I now need to work out how to consume the content there. And ... I ain't gonna bother.
youtube.com the content is right there.
Youtube is a platform for consumers, that creators have to work for.
In a world of fuel efficiency (and range) being a prime seller ... I cannot fathom why low profile saloons (and estates) are not more of a thing. Surely a lighter bodied lower profile vehicle has less drag and therefore better range and efficiency. Surely.
We're just marketed and, more importantly people are still buying, these bloody great big heavy SUVs with bugger all space inside.
The thing that says "click to rate" and has the pointer arm off the chart in it's default "rest" position.
Right, it's right there
Performance art.
Anything in the UK carried for the intent to harm another person is a weapon. I do lots of low impact woodland/forest work. Axes, saws etc. in my bag. If I carried them to a Birmingham park to murder someone they would be weapons and not allowed. If I carry them into a woodland I have a contract to manage, they are tools and allowed.
These extra rules/laws don't change the above. The swords could still have been outlawed as weapons by the legal system.
But... doing this means the perl clutches can sleep easy knowing "something is being done"
Suunto make amazing watches and kit for tracking. It's a Finnish company.
Annoying that "may" be Chinese owned now I look at it. Which friends how strict you want to be
It's almost like the disunity with europe is part of some targeted effort
Checkout fill refill, who do powder in a big container. When it's empty, you send the big tin back to them and they refill it send it back to you.

There are some great examples of cycle lane design out there. And some atrocious examples of cycle lanes that have been built. But that's a separate rant.
If we had a quality cycle lane network, we could have adapted that to support "more than walking, less that driving" lanes without much issue.
The earlier we invest in this new class of highway the cheaper and easier it will be.
The headline there (from the BBC) is incendiary at a minimum.
I'm no Royalist. But the Monarch actually takes less of a percentage from the estate than they used to. 12% this year down from 25% last year. What has happened, is the crown estate is making more money due to financing green energy strategies which are both environmentally beneficial and financially sound.
The Monarch taking 12% from the estate, and the estate getting richer means there is more money going into the public domain from the estate that there has been before. This isn't "money from the gubment" being given to the monarch. This is the monarchs businesses are doing better than they have before.
Replying in this thread because I like the openness and communication of it.
I completely agree with you Sharp this could be addressed by breeding and training. But ... the end goal is not to have aggressive murder machines on our streets. The breeding of power and aggression into the breed shouldn't have been done in my opinon (or allowed into the UK). Breeding out the aggression, effectively means eliminating the breed anyway and gives us a transition period of completely unknown dogs.
Unfortunately, the primary reason (in my worthless opinion) for owning these dogs is the visage of power and aggression. The public penalty of that is part of owning that "power symbol". The public reaction to the dogs, is the reason people want them in the first place.
I do compare this to "assault weapons" in the US. It's not a phrase that makes much clear sense (like XL Bully). If what you want is a working tool, get a different gun/breed. If what you want is a family companion, get a different breed. If you want the power symbol, get the XL Bully or the "assault weapon". There's no specific reason to own that specific dog, except the power symbol.
Because Farage can split the right to win...
But the left splitting means it has to lose?
I desperately want to get politics away from being about figureheads and cults around individuals. But it already looks like Green at looking at a new party with some interest. A decent coalition of "actual" left parties, working together could ... could ... be really quite powerful.
