@postoctobrist Knowledge I acquired in the cadets:
- What a VC-10 is like in the air (loud + brown)
- Max runway speed of a MkII Ford Transit (109)
- What special forces piss tastes like (metal)
- Ignition point of Kiwi polish (hot Transit dash)
I am the future of Britain's armed forces.
@ChrisWebbMP Nice that this is happening or whatever but is it too much to ask for even one graphic designer with spellcheck to have produced this graphic? I'm sure the AI was very cheap and convenient but it was also very obliging and wrong.
@BReguided Shoulda kept it and put a huge GDR museum in there. Germany's instinct to try to shave off inconvenient corners of its troubled past is why we are where we are. Determined to draw only the most expedient or linear lessons from history.
@GarethDennis They don't want to admit that they don't like paying other people for their art because it's a skill they don't possess or value. Stock imagery and illustration is an income source for artists and this slop takes that away.
I reckon this place is a real place of honour. I bet a bunch of highly esteemed deeds are commemorated here. I imagine something really valued is here!
Britain is not a household. National debt is irrelevant provided it can be seen to service that debt. Economies that choose austerity as a response to debt are marathon runners eating their arms & legs. Britain needs state capacity to drive investment coupled with tax reform.
