Pedestrianising Oxford Street would obviously be much better? I'm not sure why the council would oppose it, other than they are Conservatives so habitually wrong.

Getting rid of most traffic has already made the street orders of magnitude more pleasant. Getting rid of buses and taxis is the obvious next step.

Honestly this past week in London has been on another level. Arsenal shirts everywhere. Sunday was incredible, nothing like it in my life.

So if i want to set up my Eufy camera for use with this, it would need to be able to upload to a remote network drive or FTP folder? I'm pretty sure mine does on-device motion detection, which then records the footage to an sdcard in the device. I'm not sure I can get it to write to FTP though. Will have a play around.

Either way this is a good solution. I used to use frigate and I actually bought a Coral TPU unit to offload the motion detection. This massively reduced CPU usage, but it is still adds a noticeable (~3-8w) increase to total power consumption. It would be nice to use the on-board capabilities of the hardware itself.

I just instinctively read "massive new lido" as "massive new dildo".

It's actually even worse than that, as women could now legally complain to the owner that there is a man in the toilets and they are unsafe. In thiscase it would be discriminatory to NOT kick the trans man out of the women's toilets.

This leaves trans people with nowhere to go, which the authors of the guidance have acknowledged. So they have left the option for the owner to permit trans people to use the disabled toilets....

Which is a win win if you don't give a shit about disabled people OR trans people.

I'll never understand drivers who do this. The psychologist they had talking about "rage and humiliation" in "mini power struggles" was interesting, would like to hear more about that.

I use card for most of my transactions, but in cornershops, independent shops or smaller businesses i usually ask what they prefer. It's not always cash! sometimes they prefer card as it's easier for them to handle.

Interesting what you say about people your age, I've noticed actually that children/teenagers tend to use cash because they don't have a bank account or any income to put in a bank account, but then when they get to 18+ they start using card more.

The main problem with Paperless is me. I just can't be arsed to scan stuff, even though it's almost entirely automated. The only thing that isn't automated is me putting the paper into the scanner. Why am i like this?

 

We're going to be flying to the US soon and it's the longest trip we've done with our child. It's an 8 hour flight entirely during daylight hours, and I am slightly (read: very) apprehensive about the chaos that could unfold. Any tips or experiences?
