I voted (against the RT's candidates and policies) as soon as I got the pack through. You have to be a member to vote.

I feel disgusted that groups like RT are trying to undermine institutions like the National Trust for their own aims.

It’s easily got to the point where home broadband is not the limiting factor. We are a home of 2 people and our 500Mbps is more than sufficient.

At work we found that people’s home WiFi is way more limiting than the incoming connection.

That plus if they are selling a non-standardised service to a business it can be challenging to work out the cost. Projects, consultancy, etc all need to be scoped and estimated.

Feddit UK continues to grow, and as such @tom@feddit.uk is going to need to spend more time and money on hosting, moderation, and general tinkering. Using the Ko-Fi link is good for giving the odd one-off donation, but perhaps an OpenCollective account (like some of the Mastodon servers are using) would be a longer-term approach.

It's excellent. UHD streams, decent enough sound quality, choice of what to watch. This is what I pay my licence fee for.

I didn't think you could get those here in the UK, but it looks like you can! https://www.philips.co.uk/c-p/SPR5500_05/powersquid-5-outlets

My only gripe is that they look a bit messy... I am a neat freak when it comes to cabling.

I am sick of everything having a wall-wart transformer, especially where the size or shape prevents other things from being plugged into the adjacent sockets.

What's going on up Nottingham?
