Much better after the England game at Murrayfield

Egyptian Lover had a few hits back in the day

Aside from bug/issue spam where maintainers are stuck dealing with bogus problems raised by LLMs and posted by lazy humans, I don’t think there ought to be an issue. Maintainer burnout is no joke though; a bad day topped off with a bogus bug report might be the straw breaking a camel’s back.

The other issue is licensed code with stricter copy left protections can be stolen for training data and unwittingly regurgitated into a code base elsewhere. Unfortunately this would require lawyers to actually bring these cases to court, which is not happening at the moment. Seems more manageable as an issue though since there is a path to resolving it. I think I need to make an EFF donation to help with that process.

Merry Sixmus to all who celebrate

Dirty bastard

Kind of similar with Ank.Spon. just been prescribed biologic drugs but waiting for an appointment to receive them.

Was originally having dicofenac with is an NSAID like ibuprofen but stronger - wasn’t working - so they bumped me up to etoricoxib but got side effects from that like an upset stomach so was advised to stop.

They hold off on the biologics because they are super expensive and only the NHS can dole them out. Apparently they originally designed them for Parkinsons disease but turns out they are a miracle cure for Ank.Spon. Fingers crossed it works out! Would like to be able to get out the flat more often, even going to the office like 3 days a week.

Glasgow vs Munster rivalry is quality. Love watching those teams play.

I was just implying that people in the Greens have a reputation for being assosicated with cannibis legalisation so I thought the headline was funny.

My personal policies are actually the opposite of what will likely be on the Green manifesto however I like the man as a person, and respect him. To my eye he seems to have the X-factor that the public seem to engage with, backed up by a consistent set of beliefs and a vision.

Depending on how strong his vision is, I might be tempted to vote for him regardless of my personal policy preferences because vision has been missing for a long time in UK politics.

Like the guy but he leads the Greens FFS lol

Edit: Left the comment first thing and realising now the phrasing is ambiguous. Should have read:

“I like the guy but I’m skeptical he has never tried drugs given that he leads the Greens lol”

Hard to take a hard moral stance while consuming any FIFA product tbh. The phony prize is par the course for them.

WRT Trump’s America being hosts, I think the most you can really ask of people is that they don’t visit and drop a bunch of money into the US economy.

But if I hop on that e-peen then maybe it won’t decide to take my job /s

I use IRC everyday. In particular the #<linux_distro>-chat channel on IRC.

We can’t know for sure. My point was that logically they’d be following what their internal polling / researchers are telling them.

Echo all the other people here saying that you should be discussing this with medical professionals.

However - and forgive me for this if I’ve misinterpreted your post - if you think that chemical castration might remove a temptation that you might hurt someone then I’d recommend proceeding with it. Additionally, depending on exactly what the reason you can’t have “normal” relationships, there are some situations that you cannot discuss it with your parents without putting immense amounts of strain on your relationship.

Re: the 2nd quote, I can definitely see it being a problem if Labour can’t remind the electorate about Tory chaos (without being accused of hipocracy). Optimistically, Tory chaos rhetoric has two functions: alleviates “buyer’s remorse” in people who voted Labour; and it throws more mud at the toxic Tory brand, driving their voters to Reform. If they can deploy it properly then they’ll get another majority as the right’s vote is split within constituencies, leaving the Labour candidate as the winner under our FPTP system.

IMO the issue is that Tony Blair so comprehensively changed politics that parties can’t win elections in the UK anymore from a leftwing platform. The alternative is that the government/Starmer are sitting there being told that a leftward move is significantly more popular than their current platform, and that they are - suicidally - ignoring that evidence due to ideology.

How would one square the implicit suggestion that Starmer is taking bold ideological stances with the fact that the one thing everyone agrees about him is he lacks a clear ideology?

Carney has been leading the middle nations in the sense that he’s taken a tough public stance against Trump for years. European leaders have finally started to adopt his rhetoric this week after Trump took the Greenland crisis to the brink.

Given that I don’t think he was referring to creating more treaties or supranational bodies, I think by matching Carney’s rhetoric world leaders have answered his call.

I’ve pretty much had the opposite reaction to this news. Starmer’s critics had painted the original decision as being the result of his legalistic tendencies triumphing over common sense. Personally, had totally imbibed that point of view because it fit with my preconceptions. (Possibly I was right and he’s using the recent anti-Trump sentiment as a smoke screen to give a post-hoc impression of competence.)

Hearing he had been acting pragmatically to curry favour with a notoriously transactional US president makes me view the original decision in a better light. If that’s true, he’s actually standing up to Trump by telling him to sort out the legality of the US base for himself. Pretty much every European leader had been taking the same tact of public flattery and private diplomacy before this week had Greenland spillover.

Sometimes I wonder if Starmer would need to put out a press statement saying, “DJT, eat shit” before he got any acknowledgement of representing the UK assertively on the world stage.
