    The advertising is a massive one. If you were trying to recover from a gambling addiction, you wouldn’t be able to watch any sport on TV. Every advert, especially late at night, is about betting.

    Yeah that’s the issue I have with it. Also that it’s so many satellites for a single private company. It would be even worse if Amazon or someone tries to compete. Ideally itwould be open like GPS.

    I can hate Elon and also think space x are doing cool stuff (except the issues with the starlink constellation). They are beating Boeing with the crewed missions to ISS and the booster catch today was incredible. Just the guy at the very top is an arsehole.

    Also how many of those are on actual arable land. I’ve seen animal fields add solar not sure how many actually usable fields are being converted.

    Ah but the capitalist has to sacrifice the short term and play the long game of not over harvesting. And nothing matters more to a capitalist than short term profit

    What's wrong with the library? Or their school?

    I get the point but wasn’t this them staying at the property for a while, not just a place to revise? Can’t expect the kid to sleep over at school.

    It is just very stupid politically from Starmer, he had to have known it would be found out and compared to the Tories. Surly he has the money to put him up in an Airbnb or something instead.

    It is a crazy schedule for the top players, play in the league + often multiple domestic cup competitions + europa or champions league, then every 2 years in summer is a major tournament.

    I can see some kind of game/minute limit coming in maybe, but that would be an advantage to the bigger clubs with better squad depth.

    This has nothing to do with the article it’s self, but I absolutly hate GIFs as the thumbnail. I get that they do it for the attention, but if every site starts doing this, my feed will look awful.

    I’m just happy to see some electric cars that aren’t SUVs or boxy crossovers. I hope more manufactures take their old hatchback style cars and make them electric, keeping the “old” physical buttons as well. Loved the look of the Honda e, but not so much the all touchscreen controls

  • I live in the Uk and fancied a holiday just going around Great Britain for a week by train and saw [this was an option](https://www.nationalrail.co.uk/tickets-railcards-offers/promotions/all-line-rover-7-days/). Just wondering if anyone has used it and was it worth the price vs booking each trip in advance.

    Hate how the BBC always use passive voice for car crashes. No mention that a driver is at fault.
