It'll be one of those things aimed at home office and it'll be based on the capability to fail over to mobile when the primary thing goes down. A friend mentioned having looked at something similar. There's a lot of utter bullshit when it comes to stuff in that market segment.

This is going to be the case with so many cunts, all you can do is the mature thing - take pleasure in how upset they clearly are. Know that they are at least very unhappy right now.

I bought the DVD of JAM in university. I loved, and still love he work from that era - I've only just finished listening to all of On The Hour again in the shower. I also saw The Day Today when I was a child, not knowing it was parody, and thought that homeless people were really being clamped (tory manifesto 2024 pledge).

Ignoring what the job actually is and whether you enjoy the work, office can be fine. When I last worked in an office I sat with people I liked and enjoyed talking with, I could have headphones on to block out noise, there were good food options nearby, and it was a 7-minute drive from home. Now whilst my company does have an office, the last time I went there was December 2022 and the time before that was November 2021. The guy I sit next to now doesn't seem to take baths very often and his breath loving stinks.

If there's a problem with backhaul to the exchange it might affect multiple services coming off it. For example if your 4G mast and your regular Internet arrive at the exchange from the rest of the world via the same duct, if that duct gets damaged both may suffer.

Failed Imagineer posted:I get the general point, but the row of shops next to me has an upstairs shop with old ladies that will do measuring and alterations for like...a fiver a go? It's not Savile Row but they can certainly upgrade a shirt for you Yeah, and people just working out of their homes. You can spent 20 quid on a shirt, another tenner to get it altered to fit you perfectly, and it'll look better than something off the hanger that costs £150. The very last suit my parents bought me (and predecessor to my current one, since they're just for weddings and funerals in my case) was taken out and taken in several times throughout my phases of smaller and bigger.

A fun story about alterations: I got married in October last year. Since it was a big deal, and since I'd get use out of it afterwards, I got measured and had a suit made for me by Suitsupply. The waistcoat didn't fit at all since their QA is poo poo, so I went to get that and a new shirt altered by someone I'd just found on google maps nearby, working from their house. She did a wonderful job and it was £15 for both things. I said that she could charge more because it looks great and she fit me in at short notice. She said that whilst she knows she could, she doesn't want to have to pay more tax because she doesn't want her money going to people on benefits.

forkboy84 posted:What else do you propose? I don't. I know gently caress all about it in general, but that's why I asked and said it wasn't rhetorical. If I remember correctly the proposal around Manchester* was that it'd apply to commercial vehicles only - which I assume wouldn't affect individuals as directly, but I don't know the balance of where the pollution comes from in terms of commercial/domestic. *The scheme where they spent money to put up signs everywhere warning of the clean air zone, then spent more money putting up more signs to say "ignore these other signs because it's under review".
