@andyturner You made me smile, that’s great, the forums were (are) the beating heart and soul of dpreview, I’m so glad you found your calling.

[Phil Askey @philask]

@andyturner Oh sorry, well tbh I live in Dubai and our AC is set at 24 most of the time. I’m guessing a lot of people set theirs at 19 because they don’t work well or people leave doors / windows open.

@Telegraph For what purpose

@AJENews @AJEnglish The one he tried to kill?

@CBHeresy You’ve hit the nail on the head. It’s a fetish pure and simple, nothing wrong with people having fetishes but requiring others to join you otherwise you’re discriminating is wrong.

@elonmusk What happens to the V2 satellites, do they just become a slower backhaul?

[Phil Askey @philask]

Britain has a new record: 298,000 households where no adult of working age has ever worked – and nearly 350,000 once student homes are included.

That is an entire town’s worth of people for whom employment is literally a foreign country.

This is not a blip, it’s a structural failure: 25 years of welfare expansion, mass migration marketed as ‘filling labour shortages’, and a political class that treats work as optional for natives and compulsory for imported labour.

The result?

A permanent workless underclass, paid for by a shrinking pool of taxpayers who are told they’re ‘privileged’ for picking up the bill.”

@ESPNF1 Hopefully the HMRC aren’t counting this as a tie

@BobWulff @WillWulffDamnIt Our don’t be a cheapskate?

@Pyrrrhos Do you believe it will (a) ever actually happen, (b) on time and (c) only cost the tax payer £1.3bn?

Also, Bedford.
