If you're worried about your butter going off before you get a chance to use it, try making one James Martin recipe a week*

He made a croque monsieur on Saturday Kitchen this week that used 200g of butter to fry a sandwich with a cheese sauce that had 50g of butter in it.

It just looked so oily.

I wish I had a puddy tat to post pix of but we're not allowed pets here so I would have to have an indoor cat, but also the thought of a litter tray stinking out my tiny flat and the possibility of a kitty escaping through an open front door into the maze of the building doesn't bear thinking about!

Embrace Web 1.0 and get a bonsai kitten

The best way to watch Amazon Prime series is through an Apple TV and Up Next, honestly.

Best streaming box around tbh, and the 4's aren't insanely priced second hand.

This is true again wrt film/tv. Install Plex on your TV, torrent all your poo poo on your PC, no more loving around trying to work out which platform you need to use to watch [x].

Jellyfin is free and does the same thing as Plex now.

With a day's worth of effort, you can build this for about �40 and �5-10/month ongoing (VPN, Usenet) and have an entirely automated, secure, homebrew streaming system.

This sounds good, but I don't understand how it can be automated without downloading a bunch of poo poo that you don't want? It seems like you'd have to do a lot of finessing for that not to happen, in which case you might as well have just chosen what you wanted and downloaded it yourself

Sonarr as an example, I tell it that I want to watch Elementary (2012), that I want only the First Season, and that I want it in 1080p quality. Sonarr communicates over API to search Indexers, finds the files in the sufficient quality, and then sends them to the download client (again with API). It does that daily, so if you're watching something that's still airing, as soon as it's available on the indexer it'll be found and the process will happen.

There's a lot of dialling in you can do. I've not had any problems with getting things.

I was (and I�m sure some can correct me as this is searching the deep archives of my memory), under the impression the CPS is, like every government funded part of society, buckling under the weight of lack of proper funding and cost cutting measures.

Oh and a distressingly large amount of our legal system is propped up using volunteers with minimal legal training. Now you might wonder what sort of person deciding the fate of their fellow man would attract. Seems that despite being kicked out at 70, 49% of magistrates are over 60. 1% are under 30.

There are courts turning away cases all over the country, Barristers getting paid less than minimum wage to detail cases and anything to do with funding is completely hosed.

I thought most of the advocates were saying to pirate poo poo because it's easier. I certainly was. I liked just having all the stuff I wanted to watch on Netflix or iplayer, but now it's a big hassle so it's back to piracy.

(no offence Meatlove, I totally get it, it just made me laugh)

I get it. You start with Windows Media Player as a gateway drug and then you're buying a 42U rack from a chocolate factory outside Frome and trying to fit all the panels in your car.

There's much better posters about tennis who can tell you the full story and they can even throw in Nadals knee issues that have a lot in common with competition body builders. Djokovic stands out to me in the same way Froome does in the cycling world. Both had 'undiagnosed' health problems that were simultaneously mild enough to prevent them from being elite sportsmen in endurance heavy disciplines but when cured elevated them to the 99.9% of performers.

To put it another way, Djokovic (And other notable names) have been at the top end of the sport for near 20 years. In a sport that requires exceptional levels of fitness with effectively a non functioning drugs testing program.

Remember that four year period were you could chart Nadal�s cycling by the tournaments he�d back out of last minute with [generic injury]

Addendum to earlier post: I shall eventually be ripping my CIAM DVDs with AnyDVD+MakeMKV, transferring the resulting Matroska files to a Kingston DataTraveler Micro 32GB (DTMCK/32GB) and playing them back using the media player app in my TV.

So, please update your XLSXs accordingly - while enjoying your Netflix subscription perhaps?

Does your TV support HEVC H.265 over H.264? That's a lot of room to be wasting on inefficient compression otherwise.

I'm more annoyed that the Vimes "boots" theory is basically about credit rather than inflation. Vime's boots are cheaper now but more expensive over time. That's the whole point!

The overall point of her initial thread was that supermarkets were deliberately targeting price rises in basics ranges to keep attractive �two can dine for �10� end aisle style deals feasible. So it still fits in the socioeconomic unfairness bracket imo.

So companies will end up with small 'prestige' offices to take clients to and for executive meetings in city centres while the remaining office-based staff travel to/from the ones on the edges of the city

I've seen this in my field of IT already - main office is just outside of Reading, swanky client base is a floor somewhere close to, but not exactly at, Salesforce Tower. All the address envy, 90% less cost for everybody involved. One of them was even in a WeWork space.
