A Literal Cabbage. What do you want from me?

  • Thanks - same to you!

    I think it's a combo of being a "real" adult, thinking about the implications of things going on in the world (on yourself and everyone else) and the world being a mess.

    Still, at least I'm old enough to be comfortable in my self (even if it's anxious, unfit, and aching) and generally happy to just be.

  • That's an awesome set of improvements - well done!

    I can't promise to be any use to you, but I'm glad to swap ideas about what the fuck to make of our 30s...

  • I have tinnitus and struggle in loud places to focus on conversations because I just get an unfiltered mess and f noise hitting my brain.

    It sucks, because I can hear a pin drop the rest of the time.

  • I used it decades ago (using the CLI installer for a Sid install I eventually fucked up beyond repair) and it was okay for a slightly tech savvy teenager, even then.

    I suspect a lot of these issues are down to hardware compatibility more than anything else.

  • English has "the arse end of nowhere" too. Wir sind alle gleich.

  • I've always heard this used to mean "I've gotta leave quickly" rather than going to bathroom; but I'm British so it might not hold the same meaning of you're not also!

  • Ditto, I used it on my eepc 701 way back when. I miss that sort of computing experience!

  • Bunsenlabs is the successor to crunchbang.

  • Crunchbang was amazing, but it's sadly no more. Development stopped on it some time in 2015 I think.

    Bunsenlabs is a direct successor to it, and should be good on OP's system.

  • Thailand has some of the strictest laws of this kind.

    Typically you're looking at serious jail time if found guilty.

  • I'm British - he regularly appeared on a wannabe Fox network "GB News" alongside a similarly "anti removed activist" Lawrence Fox (who is his own flavour of unseemly), was (is?) a spokesman for UKIP - the party which drove us to Brexit. I've taken an interest in him when I saw his dog collar and questioned his church membership, so I occasionally check in on him to piss myself off and generally increase my blood pressure.

    I also used to be a practicing Christian so I'm very into denominational splitting and infighting - he studied theology, didn't get a job with the Church of English and was then ordained into the "Free Church of England", where he became a bishop. He's bounced around a few other denominations since; the Nordic Catholic Church, a Lutheran denomination, and now the Anglican Catholic Church.

    Him being blocked from entering the Anglican Church of England (the real actual one which is linked to the royals) was reported in fairly mainstream news here. It seems like the church was actually pretty tight lipped on their reasoning for him not taking a position with them, and he's basically outed himself as too bigoted for the church by handing over to the press internal communication regarding him he secured through an effective FOI request.

    He's an interesting chap.

  • He literally wasn't ordained by the Anglican Church because of his "anti removed" views. He joined a knock off church which wasn't desperately to be part of the catholic church (but, and I can't stress this enough, isn't at all). He's cosplaying being a vicar for clout while being a fucking worse bigot than two of the largest organised denominations.

  • The "Anglican Catholic Church" is actually not affiliated with either the holy see (the "actual" Roman Catholic Church) or the Anglican Church (as headed by the Archbishop Canterbury and the King of England).

    He joined it because he didn't make the cut to become an actual Anglican Priest because of

    concerns about Robinson's "libertarian anti-removed, anti-identity politics, Covid-sceptical" political views and his use of social media, particularly Twitter, to disseminate them."

  • Only if their mothers were as well

  • It's not a government body, so it can't be official. The closest it gets is unofficial mouthpiece for the British Establishment™.

  • The BBC isn't a government body and isn't funded by taxes, it's primarily funded by the license fee (and selling broadcasting rights overseas).

    The internet has royally fucked the funding model - as everyone and their mum has equipment capable of receiving live broadcast tv, but unless it becomes an official government mouthpiece it's unlikely to become something we pay for out of taxes.

  • I really enjoyed it, although I do wish it wasn't so "draw the rest of the owl".

  • We get a tax free allowance of £12,570 annually, and then it's banded from there: Income from £12571 to £14876 is taxed at 19% Income from £14877 to £26562 is taxed at 20% From £26523 to £43662 is taxed at 21% From £43663 to £75000 it's 42% £75001 to £125140 it's 45% And anything north of that is 48%

    This is calculated on income after any deductions from pay are made, like national insurance contributions, pension scheme payment, salary sacrifice schemes, student loan repayments and so on.

  • Fair enough - I didn't realise it was for visa requirements until I read the rest of the comments; my bile got the better of me...
