With the number of troops they've been losing, I'm surprised it's taken so long.

It's going to take more than that today I fear.

The song was written by Jarvis to describe him and friends like him. - if it has become that then it's quite a distortion.

Top 8 team, playing with grealish, surely this is the big move.

Of course women don't like the Cybertruck.

Women only want one thing, and it's the 1970s Outspan Orange.

I've just had an advert on facebook, which said "Please vote for my song in a contest" - a contest for AI created songs.

So this guy is too lazy to write a song, too lazy to find an audience, just wants to pay some money to win a prize.

The snake is eating itself.

If a local community facebook group had wheels...

I have yet to receive a leaflet through the door offering me 2 for 1 on a marajuana if I collect.

Is that how you say it ? A marajuana ?

I was going to do a "i'm not saying my mother in law is fat, no-one in korea is fat apart from me !" joke to this, but it felt problematic on about 2 levels, perhaps 3.

Notification says "Review your linked PayPal that will be synced in Accounts centre". I think very much not.

notification from facebook.

err, 'scuse me ? no, thankyou very much.

what data can't tell you apparently is how "safely" players like to play.

Sargent has been living off scraps all season, it seems that we no longer / very rarely play through-balls, players make the runs but the midfielders chicken out of playing the ball nine times out of ten, then the ball goes to the wing, the defence have time to organise and we have a corner.

AI: No dogs cannot play chess in the human sense because

Google is killing my industry so it can be coy about dogs’ chess abilities

Is this about autocorrect?

Colin said to give you this note, but I guess you're not accepting them, so...

The speech will be played on a loop until morale improves !

Something I read a few days ago was along the lines of "we won't break even if the Nvidia chips last 10 years", and like, 10 years, constant use in a data centre, seems like a long time for a chip.

We were putting 4 past teams in February. And then JHT started talking about "culture", players started missing matches. After that it was downhill. All the data in the world won't help you if you lose the dressing room.

I get the feeling we are going to end up as a country with unpicked crops, undelivered fast food, broken plumbing, and uncared for elderly and infirm people.

so if i understand this correctly, company owners in his bracket would need to sell x per cent of shares ( if they held their net worth there, many do ), every year, by a certain date, to pay the government. I'm not sure what that would do to share prices, could it create a run ? interesting, ta!

There will be a back-door exploit where we can turn their weapons against them, if needed. There's always a back-door.

Yes, but they have institutional knowledge of that business.

If we're talking about a gradual move, of 1 or 2 per cent a year, of businesses into govt. control, at some point govt. will hold large amounts of shares in everything that UK citizens have created - but no knowledge of how to run them.

I'm not sure it's possible to do this and have whatever benefits there are of what we have currently - it smells of government control, and governments aren't very good at running businesses historically.

Forcing the sale of assets. Presumably to the government. Would that, long term, effectively nationalise everything ?

Other things I don't understand about this, maybe you can explain :

Who sets the value of assets
How can assets be traced when it can take little time to move them, e.g. abroad

Fair comment, but isn't that just because the majority of discourse isn't where green issues are, but instead those of wealth and income inequality currently ? Depending on who you talk to, it's either foreigners or billionaires ( I think b) stealing our cookies ?

The ( simplistic ) way I see the wealth tax is, it would cost more to work out what's owed and collect it than it would to raise it. it's sort of the anti-UBI in that respect.

Happy to be corrected in any of the above :).

It's actually quicker for me to walk to our doctors and wait in reception ( 15 minutes ) than to wait for them to answer the phone. Covid seems to have broken the way surgeries deal with people.

Most of my namesakes are boring, much like myself, but for a small period of time, one of them was in jail for flying a plane full of marajuana into Nebraska.

This was just before legalisation in various states so i think they went easy on him in the end.

ok then - whoever is making policy needs to speak to real world left-wing economists ( and arguably some right-wing ones to give a sanity filter), and then feed the figurehead better lines than "wealth tax".

I would want to see him get advice of people that aren't neccesarily going to tell him what he wants to hear - so that he can keep his proposals to the left, but in the real world.
