Seems like a good idea, but I worry this will be used as part of an excuse to close more community post offices

Vs average domestic power costs currently at 27p per kWh

And that’s before we go into inflation and the inevitable fuel duty rises that will come with increased scarcity

Well of course it will be, we’re replacing something we largely have to import expensively, for something that’s effectively free after initial costs

Many of my friends (both men and women) that were teachers have changed careers over the past decade. The stress of the job is apparently vastly disproportionate to the compensation and many are pushed far past breaking point.

I think the problem is more that teachers are receiving a fraction of what they should if we want to keep the best ones in that field, and we don’t have enough of them in general. These modern large class sizes to gloss over the staffing issues, are a big part of the problem IMO, it’s a lot easier for kids to fall through the cracks in a bigger group before thinking about the teachers being overworked.

There being better male role models is the responsibility of all of us.

I shed no tears for new additions to the class of temporarily embarrassed millionaires.

A person needs only a single house

If we’ve got people without houses, you should expect to pay a huge premium on taking a house someone else needs, for your want.

Frankly the tax rate on a 2nd house should be sufficient to completely fund housing for at least 2 otherwise homeless people in perpetuity

Selfishly I kinda want him to carry on as mayor of Manchester for now, he’s been doing a lot of good here and I worry that whoever follows won’t be as effective

Although it makes sense for him to go for the big job one day, there’s no guarantee the skills transfer

It’s obvious to anyone who has been using their mental faculties

Unfortunately we have a large number of people whose media diet of the mail, the express and GBNews, means they resist anything that will actually improve their lives

Welp here’s hoping something pops up to replace gravity sync soon, can’t really upgrade until it does.

I just found https://github.com/mattwebbio/orbital-sync but it’s not apparent if it’s compatible with v6 yet

Well it is the i, owned and published by the daily mail

Assuming you mean hosting stuff on a VPS or similar, I think the Lemmy selfhosting communities consider that also self hosting on some level.

If you more meant for commercial hosting, there’s no harm in asking, I’d wager a fair few people subscribed probably work in the industry.

If you meant the behind the scenes stuff of running a hosting provider, you might have a little less luck, but you never know

What percentage of the banned protests were expected to be peaceful?

Sadly most of their supporters will never find out, and the rest will handwave it away as “fake”, “well they all do it” or some other complete nonsense.

Other than the liver building, radio city tower has to be the most iconic part of the Liverpool skyline.

It was definitely the first thing I noticed when I arrived by train for the first time years ago

I wonder what will move in next, I’m glad to see it’s listed

Because we had an absolute moron in charge at the time

And the cynic in me sees this as all by design

Say they’re gonna bring the big companies to task, actually destroy alternatives and entrench the corporate players further

Seattle Santa brings the gift of games, your bank balance is the cookies and whisky

Yeah I thought I was having internet problems for a moment there

Oh that explains mine then

Wasn’t sure how I clocked an average of nearly 4 sessions a day

Funny because the evidence seems to suggest as the article reported—it will help lift more people out of poverty than not doing it. That’s what this trial is intending to confirm.

What’s your evidence that they’re wrong?

Huh

I had no idea there were actual rules
