  • The whole point of bringing out a new generation of hardware is to make it work in much better ways of operation than the last one. By default it is not going to run the older generation of games because it doesn’t work in the same way. Now they could spend a lot of effort in making it able to play the old games and work in the old way, but what is their incentive to do that, compared say in starting work on the next generation or releasing the console earlier?

  • thats crazy
  • No one secured the ladder or the roof or responded to alerts of a gunman on the roof. There’s only two angles where you could shoot the ear without it entering the head, must be a million to one shot… but the real question to ask is…. a teenage boy looking at porn?… that is crazy!

  • How Much Is Your Time Worth?
  • I said this to my uncle once “me and my dad bought stuff at auction then probably spent more fixing it up than it was worth”. He said “but it helped you didn’t it?”, yeah it definitely did. Fixing stuff definitely helps the soul, if it helps you, do it and don’t worry about the cost.

  • Bid to criminalise water companies that don’t tackle sewage spills fails
  • I will probably do the same. Never really understood tactical voting. Is it just so you can say you voted for the winner? Realistically one vote here or there is unlikely to swing it so surely just vote for the candidate/party you want regardless of their chances?

  • Labour is headed for electoral triumph – then woe in government

    The party may have a 30-point lead in the polls, but its lack of real offering to voters will soon cause problems

    Gary, Indiana’s lawsuit against gunmakers is shot down by a new law, after surviving 25 years of appeals
  • In 2015, Indiana’s then-governor, Mike Pence, signed a law making the state’s immunity law retroactive to Aug. 26, 1999, four days before the city of Gary initially filed its lawsuit.

    How can you sign a retroactive law? Essentially making things legal which were illegal when they were committed and what about criminalising things which were legal? Could people be prosecuted for things that became crimes after they did them?

  • FarmBot: Open-Source CNC farming
  • I am really interested in small scale farm automation but not 3k interested! Keep meaning to automate irrigation which would save me a lot of time watering but not cost too much. Cnoc farming would be a fun project though

    Government’s own research contradicts Sunak’s 20mph speed limit claim
    www.opendemocracy.net Government’s own research contradicts Sunak’s 20mph claim

    Study in 2018 found most drivers backed plans despite PM’s claim they ‘don’t reflect people’s priorities’

    Government’s own research contradicts Sunak’s 20mph claim

    Recently drove in Scotland where built up areas generally have 20mph speed limits. I found It made little difference in overall journey time Felt safer, stopping distance much reduced Easier to join the traffic Similar speed as cyclists Felt safer and more relaxed as a pedestrian, easier to cross the road
