I never considered December to be Autumn

I know which 2 I am in my current role and I don’t know if I like it or not. At least I don’t have to try very hard.

Only if you are able to get that experience though.

Upper management said a while back we need to use copilot. So far just used Deepseek to fill out the stupid forms that management keep getting us to fill out

You are almost there, well done for trying

Lefty and righty?

Still can’t actually drive it’s self like he has been promising for over a decade. Musk will never deliver.

Stop giving them more reasons not to allow it

Those marines that couldn’t defeat the Taliban?

Who is liable for the output of Grok anyway? Would Germany like to ask about now

How does that system work, what is his pad?

Here it seems to be entirely digital, I don’t need anything and just walk into a pharmacy and tell them my name to pick it up, they usually ask for address to confirm but I think it’s just any 2 bits of personal info.

Vintage Story is one I have played a lot of, got it a long time ago before they even had seasons or food spoilage.

Barely bought anything this year because I am still finishing Factorio. 1600 hours on steam and countless more from the non steam version of the game.

The factory must grow. My SA deathworld save is up to around 3000 SPM.

Use NiMH batteries in it, then you can recharge them. They also don’t leak as easily as alkaline batteries.

Make a basic HTML template. I’ll be changing it up anyway.

I could support a few of these

If your audience will disappear because you go away for 5 minutes you were probably not providing anything of value in the first place

Oh my house was way below the median, in my region of the country the median house price was £385k when I bought. If anything bungalows are often seen as a retirement option as well because no stairs to climb. At the same price range we could have got a terrace house, but they were in worse areas of town and the gardens much smaller. This is small (60m²) but its enough, after that I would like to have some outside space too. Which is also fairly small but its still something, the entire property is about 150m².

We need more places to apply similar taxes to discourage houses being left empty. It won’t fix the problem but its a step in the right direction. Rentals being left empty for long periods of time is also a problem, for both residential and commercial property.

Still working remote, not sure how long I will be able to keep that but I have had to refuse orders to start commuting more than once. Compromise agreement is offered and everyone forgets about it while we continue not going into the office more than a handful of times a year. They moved the office over 50 miles away which I am using as my (quite reasonable!) justification to not go in on a regular basis. If it remained local I could cycle in more often quite happily. Yeah in my area there are not the best job opportunities, but there is at least work to be done if you want to just take any job and its not like the pay makes much difference. In the UK we have comparably good minimum wage. I am on £26k (~£13.33/h) and minimum wage gets you £12.21/hour. So even if I just switched to literally any job I wouldn’t be taking much of a pay cut and its actually cheaper than taking the train each day would be as rail is really expensive here.

£230k which is on the cheaper end, got a small bungalow.

A fair few people here already dislike Londoners buying property and driving up prices because they earn more than the local population can. Tourist destinations get it particularly bad. I think a few parts of Wales have increased council tax (similar to property tax) for second homes that are left empty. An empty house doesn’t contribute to the local economy.

I kinda like flatpaks being an option, not sure when they are the only option though.
