Because like most things it's not that simple, plenty of uses and applications - the big ones are not consumer facing though

Doesn't fix the issues - it's an amazing case study and I think currently taught in university there

They just closed one but you need enough people going from place A to place B - from London you can only really do one or two trains that have to pick a single destination

We are enjoying it much better without you. Other factors kicked in which were not the cancer elf gifting everyone something

And his entire plan is to make racism great again without saying that out loud

Because the number of people who want to wake up in one specific place in Europe is small, when you put in cabins passenger numbers drop quick, even sleep pods take up lots of room and nobody wants to sit in a seat overnight

The issue as I understand it (and you can see it in Brussels) is the Eurostar needs a really long platform (and likely needs to be that big for price efficiency) stations in Europe have been expanding to receive it

Both can be true....he is still hiding behind stuff

What about "your dad paints roundabouts" is that unacceptable now too?

I'm sat here in Rome very few big SUVs as they don't fit - like anything if you have to spend that long brainwashing yourself as to why it's right your detachment from reality is complete

AI will come for my programming or development but it can't come for the bit where I sit, listen, reassure and extract what people need from the mess that is what they want or don't want... Which is what I've been doing for the last 3 days

Please - nobody look at my hobbies and buy me something shit based on those - Wine. Whisky, Food etc. all easy to do

try using some imagination and not buying shit in a box that is advertised to you - a case of good wine is better than any of that

So is Liverpool vs Mackems 0-0 a good result for us?

Having used CoWheels in Manchester the main difference is I used it for literally things I wouldn't use a taxi for (robo taxi or not) - like a tip run, 4 or 5 odd jobs around town, going to IKEA for stuff or occasionally a bit of a longer trip out

When I was Carless in Manchester I used CoWheels a lot - popular enough it was hard to find a car sometimes but really good value and enabled me to get loads done for a very sensible price

Submitted a bid..... That alone should mark it as made up! But no we need to have him and Gordon in the squad and be able to rotate them

Honestly why would the green's let any of this lot in!! Oh yeah they are about to find this one out when the lovely new members turn out to not agree with what the party wants and decide it needs to pivot to them

and right now we have skipped straight to attacking the tech - the energy needs to go into a plan of what role people have in society not fighting to slow down tech - what is we had the world where we didn't need menial labour?

Used to use taxi's a lot going to and from airports - tapping the earbud and mouthing "IN A MEETING" while turning up 6 Music helped a lot
