Netflix. Price hikes with lesser content that no one in my house wants to watch. Subcriptions for occasional use stuff been purged since that.

There’s one little sign when you come out the tyne tunnel i think. Very easy to miss. Catches locals out as well who are casual users

Looking at the witness mark on the wall, i think it originally did

Thanks for this! Off to test now

No matter the heat source. Step one needs to be insulating our homes to reduce the requirement for heating and make some work anyway. Especially heat pumps.

Why doesn’t the UK gov have a clear strategy for this? Leaving it to the homeowner in a cost of living crisis and with increasing mortgage costs means the vast majority cant do it alone

Interesting link thanks. Not seen this ratio quoted before. Although it states its a meta analysis so may not fully translate. But definately food for thought, pun intended

Too many generalisations made about vegan v meat eating alternative land use i feel. Dont doubt any of the studies but the assumption that you can flip land use from animal farming to other agriculture isn’t always that straight forward as the land and environment isn’t always suitable.

Maybe coordinated land use optimization based on local enviroment and food provision would be a more sensible approach.

Yeah so many people are guna be in the same boat. No chance of getting mine up to standard now without some heavy grants. Its a 1950’s ex council house an designed to be heated by a central fire

My boilers on its last legs so had a bit research on HP etc. Would love to fully electricify and get rid of the gas. Basically i need to spend thousands upgrading my insulation etc 1st before i could even think of spending the fortune needed on the HP itself. I don’t see how its doable without solar panels and a battery tbh.

In the end its worked out cheaper to install a wood stove in the front room as a stop gap as I get the money together to upgrade everything needed. Which tbh might never happen now all my cash has been drained away to nothing on energy bills and cost of living. Plus mortgage interest rates.

So my glorious vision of a more economical and eco friendly home has seen me turn medieval instead due to crippling finances

We’ve some similar nefarious influences that would love our media to descend to the full depths of some of the American ‘entertainment’ news media. But were not quite there yet and its still a fringe atm.

So sitting politicians doing backdoor propaganda still isn’t allowed by the watchdog.

Ah right never twigged thanks, with lass being 17. Thanks for risking the list ha.

What’s ‘cp’?

I’ve also been using your eyes, usually

Read up on the XMPP experience with Google. Think the warning is don’t link up with the cooperate big boys if you want your alternative to them to survive

Yep but the point is the 1.2% represent millions of gene pairs and the ones we share are not always present or expressed in the same way. So just sharing genes doesn’t necessarily mean were the same or they do the same thing.

Yeah chimps are one of our very few (very very) distant cousins left. But i think they rip more faces off than us

Pigs (98%) and bananas (60%) are often quoted examples. Not sure about worms

human and chimp DNA is 98.8 percent the same

Yep usual tired old script
