Big fat gently caress who eats takeaway, despite access to decent chefs, washed down with a bottle of Gordons Gin everyday? The picture of health. + all his facial features are set at -20 degrees too with a +3 caveman brow. I have no idea how anyone votes for him, he looks like a loving mutant.

I have to admit that i go full: "ending them and all their siblings genetic line" when i think of Tory MPs.... but those are just daydreams.

To the surprise of nobody, DWP deliberately conspired with Tory media to build a “hostile environment” against benefit claimants - at least there are people coming forward about this now.quote:One interviewee, who worked at a Jobcentre Plus (JCP) branch, explained how staff were encouraged to treat applicants with “disrespect” in an effort to limit the number of people claiming welfare by “pushing them until they either just cleared off because they couldn’t take the pressure or they got sanctioned”.

I’ve just bought a house where the previous owner had some debt issues and the house has a prepayment electricity meter. It’s such a scam! The charges are higher than a standard meter. Most of the places you can top don’t take card, or charge anywhere up to £1 extra for a card payment. And they’re always in areas with bad access to cash points so if there is a cash point available it’ll be one that charges a quid to withdraw. And this is all for people who are struggling with debt or don’t have good credit for a regular meter.

One women with young kids I recall being without any electricity for 5 days because there was nowhere to top up the key. (Don't ask me how the top up mechanism works, I have no idea. I have some idea they have to stick it in a paypoint machine or some such.)

It works in fairness to them. My GP was like "hey we could apply for *whatever they call ESA now/whenever this was, I forget*" & I just noped out of it, could not face those cunts. It should be a much bigger outrage but it won't be. It'd be genuinely more humane to euthanise the long-term unemployed than this cruel demonization & sanctions regime until people kill themselves or starve to death.

It seems like newer ones are smart meters which are connected to the web so you could top up online or over the phone. Mine is an older one so you have to take the key to a shop to get it topped up. My nearest was shut this morning so I walked all the way there and then had to walk another 3/4 mile to get to the next shop!

Yeah, it takes a very special kind of mind to come up with something less useful and more degrading than the old coin meter.

What if the keys were stored in a wallet on the cloud, and then there was some kind of blockchain where by solving cryptographic hashes your phone could virtually turn the thing on the front of the meter that makes the coins drop in?

Hm internet based services require (1) a router that probably needs the mains so if you're electricity is out so is the router or (2) a smart phone with data that is charged and ready to go so if you've used all the battery up and the 'leccie is out, so is the phone. (3) if your 'leccie is out, and your router/wifi is out, but your phone is charged, to live in a location which actually has a mobile phone data signal which many places round my way do not have

Flux Wildly posted:Never made the connection that would be where the word came from. That style was specifically a Victorian invention for punishment. Tread *wheels* - think giant hamster wheel - are useful prime movers that have been used since at least Ancient Greece which maximise the mechanical advantage and will have a neutral spot where it's possible to rest. The tread mill both minimises the mechanical advantage (because often they were just connected to a dead load) and is as un-ergonomic as possible (the two main styles either had ladder-style rungs a foot apart, forcing you to climb, or stair-type treads that were horizontal about 30 degrees from the top of the wheel which forced you into a quick shuffle) and of course made it impossible to rest for even a second.

I think Boris purposefully went to a hospital without a mask while the debate about corruption was happening because he wanted to draw attention away from the corruption.... https://twitter.com/agirlcalledlina/status/1458007649031704577 I'm not sure it's benefited him though.

Guavanaut posted:Britain immediately after ending slavery "what if we did the same thing but useless?" The "best" bit is that Millbank Prison (on the site of the Tate and the Millbank Tower of New Labour fame) actually had a tread wheel too, used for pumping out sewage and flood water, because the tread mill was *so* inefficient that even with 20 men on it it didn't provide the same torque as one man in a tread wheel. They also used them in some workhouses too but then that was probably a much kinder option than the kind of poo poo they used to make people do in them otherwise.

Apparently it's Gender Day as part of the COP26 focusing on the disproportionate effect that climate uncertainty will have on women and girls. Of course, on UK twitter this means it has currently been taken over by terves saying that gender day doesn't exist and where is sex day, and now I also want to hide on the British Virgin Islands. e: vvv Guavanaut fucked around with this message at 13:03 on Nov 9, 2021 |
