Same here, and i’ve tried other browsers which hasn’t helped. Do you use adaway?

Ive always thought the best way to escape would be to tap the brakes suddenly so the police car slams into the back of the car its chasing just hard enough to damage its radiator. The police car would overheat within a short distance. Would that work?

And if that country thought the uk was a threat because the uk had nuclear weapon capability would it be be ok to attack us to eliminate the threat? Surely its wrong to invade all other countries?

I refused to carry the plastic cards for years, but google wallet allows you to add the barcode/qr code from a friend/stranger/family’s card or phone screen, for any shop. You then get the instant discount at the checkout but won’t accumulate the later ‘points’- but your accomplice will! There are webpages online containing the barcodes if you are really privacy-conscious. I have b&q, sainsburys, morrisons, tesco and co-op stored this way. Some shops are introducing apps too - still a line i won’t cross yet.

I’m sure the headline should say “once sold out, they’ll only be available on the second-hand market”. Not gone forever though.

Thats an awful lot of time and effort for a scam email which could have been ignored.

If you plan things well and you can ensure the ‘enemy’ aircraft lands in your own territory, please shoot it down. Ideally try not to kill the pilot - this is not his/her fault after all. Nothing has been done so far that will stop other incursions. The story in this article is a bit like creeping up behind a burglar and shouting ‘boo’ at them when you have them by surprise.

Me too. You gotta get a free VPN - windscribe and proton are candidates, no card details required.

In monopoly, each player is given 1,500 money units before the game starts. Imagine one player starts with everyone’s 1500 added together and given to them, and all the other players start which nothing. Now you have the real world!

If you get stuck, ask for help. Explain what your thinking is, and how you plan to tackle things, and explain what help you need to solve your issue. If you get the job, your employer can work with you if they know you’ll ask for assistance when you need it - they expect to provide training or helpful oversight to any new starter. In the interview test, they are checking your basic knowledge, and also whether you are teachable.

So if I want one lettuce which only has a short shelf life, but there is a buy one get one free deal, I’d be stupid not to pick up two. Because I can only eat one lettuce before it goes bad, the second lettuce will be binned before its even started. All buy one get one free deals should be banned - if you want us to buy more of a product, halve the price!

NATO probably does breach their airspace, we aren’t told about that on our news. Also when NATO ‘intercepts’ them, it means NATO flew nearby, nothing more. As a pilot, If you can be sure the enemy wreckage will land in your own territory, surely shooting the plane down should be considered?

This happened because your visa claim should have been ‘stolen card details/fraud’ but it was put through as ‘food not delivered’ instead. Either your card issuer didn’t understand what was needed, or else it was poorly described to them. And you can’t claim twice on the same transaction.

So is the moral of the story that we should buy the cheapest hub from aliexpress that doesn’t have a RTL8153B networking chip in it?

Of course we could. However, a normal lightening bolt contains around 100 dollar’s worth of electricity. The cost of the equipment to capture and convert that power would be 100’s of thousands of dollars. Combined with the uncertainty of the supply, it’d be a heck of a vanity project.

If Russia is successful in Ukraine, that makes it more likely that in future China will be able to carry out the same trick in Taiwan.

We do still have leaded petrol. All piston engined aircraft are still burning fuel with added lead.

In your car crash analogy, we are now past the point where hitting the brakes will help. The car will be irrepairably destroyed and all passengers will be killed.

An interesting read, but by gosh it’s a depressing one.

Banks are experts at providing loans. Car dealerships should be expert at selling cars. Asking the car dealer to be a bank is like trying to buy a telescope from a hat shop.
