The article opens with:

LOCAL AUTHORITIES HAVE been instructed to implement 30km/h speed limits in built-up and urban areas “where appropriate” by 2027.

Now, do you really think "where appropriate" includes roads built for 100km/h?

Great initiative. I really feel like people over 60 believe everything they read online - age limits should really help protect them from misinformation.

Do you think they'll finally announce Silksong?

And some percentage of those 95% should consider trying a real prison, because the frequency of minors being sexualized - even in mainstream animes - is disgusting. Yet some people keep putting that shit in, and some people keep liking it.

With a broken containment field, the reaction will simply stop. Fusion is hard because at small scales everything has to be perfect.

Oh, it's actually 0-click (though a couple dozen key presses)

It's IMO also so much clearer regarding data types. You can't accidentally write a boolean when you want a string.

You can't tell that from one text exchange. Yes, it's possible, but it's also possible that they're just trying to motivate their son to try something new.

It's only being controlling if there's a pattern and you acquiesce. We don't know that's the case.

You could maybe describe it that way, but unfortunately that doesn't work in collaborative projects.

But I'd also disagree - if "his ways" require him to regularly and publicly shit on the work of other people & to misrepresent issues others have with him, he's arrogant and a dick.

No, if you don't go because someone set it up for you, you're still letting yourself be controlled.

If you go because you want to go, you're not being controlled.
