People are allowed to do things during the day.

Oh c'mon, he's no where near that bad.

Same lol. I do this so much.

What does this even mean?

This will make fuck all difference. Employers already do background checks, I've always had to give some kind of ID whenever I've started a new job, and there will always been employers that don't do any checks.

In theory, this should be one of those things that should make accessing services easier, but we all know this will be a foot in the door to more authoritarian bullshit and be yet another opportunity to show government incompetence.

Queuing apparently. Which I really don't understand wtf everyone else is doing to wait their turn. Well I guess except Japan.

Also weird from my UK point of view: it's fucking freezing out them I'm not opening the windows. I do get that it's nice to have fresh air and you can always put the window in the vent position, but even when it's really cold you can feel it.

Same. Seems to be doing the rounds at the moment!

Yeah I think they're still made in Sweden.

I bet this service would cost an arm and a leg though.

 

I'm talking about the back, home and app switcher buttons. I've just bought a Google Pixel Pro 9 but something that's really bugging me is that I can barely reach the back button, I keep accidentally pressing the home button. When I hold my phone in my right hand, my thumb only covers half way across and half way up.

Is there a way to either change the order the buttons are in, or move them all to the side? For some reason I never had this problem on my One Plus 6T even though it's got a slightly larger display.

 

Been out today and immediately noticed our local mini roundabouts with red crosses painted on them and nearly every motorway bridge with either a union flag or a flag of St George fixed them. It's like they've just appeared overnight? What's suddenly brought this on?

 

Not done one of these for a few weeks as I've been pretty busy!

 

I'm thinking of getting solar panels and a battery for our house.

What's your setup like, and is there anything you wish you'd set up differently if you were going to install it again? What supplier are you with?

A company extremely local to us is offering 12x Aiko Energy panels (465 watt), with a Sunsynk 5 kW inverter and a 5.32kWh battery. Octopus Energy are offering a similar set up for a similar price, but they're using 450 watt panels, so with using 12 panels I'd be potentially be losing 180 watts vs what the other company is offering. Is that a significant amount or would it basically not really amount to much additional power?
