Its reddits digg moment


I miss the old days. I remember there being an experimental one to break i think 40k encryption to get everyone to up their level


Its not just shrinkflation for these mars bars. Its sugar tax to reduce obesity


Not just that but they are trying to force you to the all or login. I stopped posting on reddit years ago but still browse it and just get use the app or login messages

Something new will come along soon enough


Im more concerned about the implications for index funds - the whole changing of the NASDAQ rules for SpaceX and AI stocks doesnt sit right.

The whole IPO and the AI stock IPO's are designed with valuations to force the trackers to invest in them, while the metrics and businesses still have significant risks and overly high P/E


I do a yearly update of all important account details and passwords on a shared keepass. Then sit down annually to review it all.

Outside this i have encrypted drives and shared passwords on this

Also review wills and power of attorney every few years


This sounds great and maybe my website wont give you too much help, but maybe you can try to use it and have new ideas about what to keep as well? thank you for comment and share experience!


Yeah and helps demonstrate thst Tristan is strategically important


I think it's rich the English dont like foreigners given how many countries they think they're entitled to posses


Not sure what that means. What do you think the Uk claims to own?

Lots of european countries owned colonies until the post-war settlement.

And immigration to UK is at an all time high so not sure on other point?


Immigration to the UK is not at an all time high - both immigration and net migration are down pretty sharply:

The general trend of the past years has increased immigration

Its not an open border and the rules changed and now it is decreasing


As a someone living of foreign origin living in England my experience is that it is avery friendly and accepting place.


Luxotica are an eu company which makes me think the eu wont ban them


Id originally thought the nhs contract covered the whole UK, but the devolved governments in Scotland and Wales arent covered

I honestly feel an English assembly covering NHS wouldnt of allowed it


The Scottish NHS has always been separate, but Wales' has diverged since devolution. The east of Wales has a long border with England... The north east is near Liverpool so a lot of people travel there for major services. Some people in the far south of Scotland go to Carlisle in England for maternity services etc but this is less common.


For all practical purposes Westminster is also the English Assembly, so there is no reason to believe a putative devolved English Assembly would have decided otherwise. Now, a devolved Northern English Assembly, that would be far more interesting.


Sort of but then you have the west lothian question, about Scottish or Welsh MPs voting on English issues. For instance these MPs should never have voted on student loans


Devolution came about because of the reverse. Parts of Wales were flooded to provide England with water, which destroyed Treweryn and other communities... All but one Welsh MP voted against that. There were many times during the 1980s and even when Margaret Thatcher introduced legislation that was unpopular in Scotland. The Poll Tax was the culmination of this, and was imposed on Scotland before anywhere in the UK.

England can outvote Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland's MPs combined so the West Lothian Question is not as big of an issue for England as the reverse.
