Blocked for a breach of procurement rules. They were the only company considered.
Some Ukrainians may die, but it’s a sacrifice I am willing to make.
With 20 cars + swat you’ve just created a target rich environment.
All you need to do is float in open water to know that extracting power out the water you’re floating in is basically impossible. The water and you move as one. It’s like putting a wind turbine on a balloon. Unless you’re anchored you’ve got no chance.
…but remember, everything needs to be written in memory safe languages to stop security breaches.
A lot of them just believe things at face value. “He said this, therefore it’s true”. It doesn’t require much attention to find the truth, but it seems to be too much to ask.
I do sometimes think a simple “I’m not a cunt” question should be on the top of ballot papers. Something like “Do you think poverty is bad?”. Something that shows the minimum amount of empathy with an unknown other.
Greens and LDs should work together like the only adults in the room and then invite labour into the fold. Maybe then they can get over themselves.
Nah, 486 support was recently dropped.
The polls only look like that because the rest of us are factionalized. Voter share puts them on a maximum of 28%. That leaves 72% of us who are voting elsewhere, and that’s without the non voters.
We need to unify around something, but let’s face it. It’s not Starmer.
The t-shirt and suit always makes me think he’s wearing a dressing-gown.
Divisiveness. They’re aiming to destabilise.
There’s some interesting points in the survey:
A change in voting system to PR seems to be the best way to defend against Reform. If the greens can convince more people of their credibility on policy and ability to win elections, they could become very strong.
Edit: that’s all England data. I haven’t delved into Scotland and Wales yet. At a glance it looks more complicated.

It’s not going to be steam pipes, but warm water. Maybe 60°C but lots of it. Warm enough for underfloor heating to be sure.
Biggest problem in my head is that you’d need to design buildings to take advantage of it, and I doubt data centres would be permanent enough to warrant the commitment.
They got 34% of a 60% turnout, or about 20% of the possible vote.
You joke (I think) but community heating schemes off these places would be a good byproduct. Not enough to make them worthwhile, but it would offset their impact.
Doesn’t really matter if you have local production if it goes on the global market. One global price set by global supply and demand. What happens in the middle east drives the price up in Michigan.
That’s a bad faith argument
Yes and no. I wrote it in a blunt way, but to deregulate nuclear plants I want to be sure it doesn’t impact safety.
Your story does nothing to convince me that the industry is regulated to “strangle” it. You don’t say what the pipe did. It may have been part of a coolant loop in which case it’s safety critical and having the wrong pipe might mean early failure of joints of connected components. Getting that right could be important and so it’s right to be regulated.
The problem is actually that it took far too long to be sure what was right, and that’s down to companies / people being far too dogmatic about how they work.
nuclear also comes from the way we manage energy utilities. When a solar farm is built, the builders can just sell it to the utility and walk away, no consideration for decommissioning or waste disposal or environmental considerations.
Well yes, because the site isn’t a million tonnes of low level nuclear waste that needs to be dismantled in a controlled fashion, and specially processed. A solar farm might have some toxic metals in the panels when ground-up, but all are quite easily reclaimed. There’s no special skill / process needed for anyone dismantling it. It just needs responsible disposal.
Completely different scale of responsibility.
After Peter has told the Bobs exactly what he does, i.e. nothing, the Bobs report back to Limburgh.
