if anyone hasn’t mentioned it yet, get on the priority list if you’re disabled old or have kids younger than five, and if power cuts do happen there’s supposed to be some form of urgent care provision so your loved ones dont freeze to death (this winter at least)

England, where poo poo like this: some arsehole from Texas posted:No one owes you or your family anything; nor is it the local governments responsibility to support you during trying times like this! Sink or swim, it’s your choice! The City and County, along with power providers or any other service owes you NOTHING! I’m sick and tired of people looking for a drat hand out! If you don’t have electricity you step up and come up with a game plan to keep your family warm and safe. If you have no water you deal with out and think outside of the box to survive and supply water to your family. If you were sitting at home in the cold because you have no power and are sitting there waiting for someone to come rescue you because your lazy is direct result of your raising! Only the strong will survive and the week will perish. Folks, God Has given us the tools to support ourselves in times like this. This is sadly a product of a socialist government where they feed people to believe that the FEW work and others will become dependent for handouts. Am I sorry that you have been dealing without electricity and water; yes! But I’ll be damned if I’m going to provide for anyone that is capable of doing it themselves! We have lost sight of those in need and those that take advantage of the system and mesh them into one group!! Bottom line, quit crying and looking for a handout! Get off your rear end and take care of your own family!

Impressed - sent a message to National Grid this evening after Jel Shaker posted about it (up the thread a bit) using their 'general contact form' and have had an email reply from a proper person just now - not a bot - saying she's forwarded it to the priority register team.Runcible Cat posted:Go the David Langford/Leaky Establishment route and set up a swimming-pool reactor in the bunker at the end of your garden using ahem borrowed plutonium warhead cores.

Pretty sure searching that on ebay would result in a swift knock at the door by the MIB.

This thread seems like it'd have someone who could say if I could do the thing I'm trying to do or not, google isn't helping because it's doing that thing where it assumes I'm googling for something else and is giving me 100% answers for that instead. I had shitloads of chrome tabs opened up until recently, like 140 or so at once. Mostly articles that I'd been fully intending to read or pages of things I intended to do/write down details from and I realise that sounds loving.... stupid as hell and I should've bookmarked them to which I'd say, "yep, absolutely". I'd close them en masse when I played a game because that many tabs was a bit of a hog of course and then reopen them using the recent history dropdown which would have "xxx number of tabs" as an option and let me reopen them all at once. What I've done at some point earlier today is close them and forgotten to reopen them until my recent history has lost them (only keeps the last 25 things you've visited), the actual history in chrome doesn't have that reopen tabs en masse thing and when you've been doing what I've been doing with many tabs, it doesn't recall the individual sites either. Or it probably does but whenever I last actually looked at them individually and of course I don't remember the majority of these (one could question the value of them at that point of course). So is there a way for me to find all these tabs in my files somewhere in some format like the recent history thing that'd just recall all the tabs and reopen them or something I'm missing? There's a part of me that's almost glad to be free of the sisyphean weight of these many tabs that "I'll definitely get round to reading one of these days" but I have a feeling my brain won't allow that and instead I'll spend tomorrow morning going through my history and trying to find as many of them as possible in a very slow boring way.

Let that be a lesson to you about abusing the browser tabs and learn to use bookmarks. My partner is the same, she constantly operates on Chrome having so many tabs open they are too small to even click on. Madness utter madness.

You can group tabs as well, then minimise the group to save space. In Edge you can do vertical tabs as well, which is really handy when you can't see what the gently caress any of them are anymore.

Yeah, I used to bookmark stuff and then stopped with this stupid mega tab which had kinda ballooned out of control (though not to 2000 tabs thankfully). Oh well, guess it's gone.

I don't even store browsing history, let alone tabs beyond the browsing session. If it's important it's bookmarked, otherwise the browser is tabula rasa each time it's opened. I think it's an artefact of learning to internet before tabbed browsing but apparently other people have not been so affected.

I used to bookmark way more stuff than I do now. I finally realized I was rebuilding google in my browser. I do a cull occasionally. Though it is annoying when I remember an article I want to share that can no longer be found on the website where I first found it 10 years or more ago and email them and they can't find it either. (A historical document by the Prussian govt (IIRC) regarding the rise of the national socialists in 1930 and the prevalent economic conditions which pretty much mirror today exactly.) mrpwase posted:Thought you lot might appreciate my Christmas cross stitch project Very good.

147 open tabs here. I only fettle around with the last 20 or so. The others I will get to at some point. Always a relief when I close a tab that's been open several years. Doubly so (literally) when I close a later one and find it's a dupe of an earlier one and I get to close two at once! Executive dysfunction is a biyatch.

A very high proportion of mine are tweets, which are very easy to open up and then forget about, so luckily with twitter no longer existing in about five minutes time that won't be an issue anymore. hooray. (also makes them easy to cull with the right tools - thanks to the quick preview-then-delete function of the firefox Tabby extension I can now proudly say that since that post I got it down to a breezy 1,823)

Bookmarks are just for websites themselves, articles go in the reading list in Chrome, or Collections in Edge, which lets you split them into different categories so you can separate recipes from articles and so on and makes it easier to save a lot more stuff.
