People advocating for teaching of personal finance and taxes in schools were always the ones not paying attention.

I know this because I’ve seen them say that, I’ve also seen them not pay attention when the topic was addressed when they were in high school. Many of these topics are mandatory in Scottish High schools and have been for most millennials and younger.

Anyone that can comprehend the most basic algebra and statistics a secondary education would give you can understand taxes and finance from free accessible websites/library books. Best practices for personal finance and tax laws may change, so your likely to have to learn some of it again. It’s vital schools provide the more abstract but timeless skills of maths, reasoning, reading and comprehension.

Vibrations that low would make the turbine unstable, the resonant frequency of the structure would be much higher. The control system would also attenuate any resonant frequencies that low.

I find it very believable they would tell they will pull it out. They really don’t give a shit and will say anything to get you buying a car.

Rather than make better processors they just make them dispate heat better.

These are also googles ‘own design processors’, so bad Samsung even avoids useing exynos. Next gen pixels will definitely be the hottest phone around.

You’ve likely accepted it without knowing, or at least been registered as accepting. Google are using dark patterns all over android to get away with this sort of thing.

What are you going to do, sue them.

Pretty much all RCS goes through Google servers. They control all the implementations, even in the cases where a carrier has implemented it themselves they likely use Google Jibe system.

If your speaking to someone over RCS you should expect Google to be involved. Even with apple implementing it on iPhone. iPhones are likely to default to iMessage between each other, so the other user is likely an android so messages are getting routed through Google. It’s likely apples decision was based on pressure from Google and the billions of dollars they give apple every year.

Google has repeatedly made attempts to make a messaging app that have failed. RCS is their chosen method to get access to app messaging metadata and it looks to be working. They are displacing text messaging and making it look like nothings changed.

The tories also get votes because they are so horrible, they know this and play to it. It does help them, put people don’t want to admit this to pollsters so they don’t poll as well. Especially when they are completely undefendable like they are now. Nothing drives people like hate and anger, which the press and tories stir up at every chance. They’ll complain about immigration and how bad immigrants are, despite them being responsible for the highest levels of immigration ever (tories like immigration it keeps wages down and makes unions weaker).

The tories will get more votes than you would expect, not enough to win. The tories have always been this nasty and incompetent. They still won elections.

Not many manufacturers would sell a TV with tracking and one without. The one without would be leaving money on the table, so even the premium very expensive tvs are tracking.

Jellyfin has a much nicer user interface and is overall a better way of doing things. But libreElec and Kodi are great at being a cheap open source client that handles lots of different codecs without much fuss.

Where are you getting 120hz content for tv?

The tories are better funded that another political party by a large margin. They’ll be fine.

This is a common misconception of the placebo effect. The placebo effect is a measurement issue, not an actual benefit.

Tests are corrupted by using the reposnes and judgement of humans. People will say they had some sort of benefit because of expectations, poor recollection and politeness. It doesn’t mean a benefit was gained. A placebo group allows researchers to quantify how much the placebo effect has on the data they gathered, they can then see if the experiment they did had any effect. Placebo is literally our definition of zero effect.

Anyone telling you placebo is a good thing is wrong, misinformed or deliberately misleading you. In many countries it is illegal for doctors to prescribe ‘placebo treatments’. They will still recommend such things to their patients - not because they work but because they get the patient out the door and less likely to come bother them again.

Tin foil hats are much better anti5g solution.

It wasn’t the big, it was Microsoft. They forced the transition and refused to solve the issue you faced.

Russia doesn’t actually want NATO get involved so they wouldn’t strike the host nation.

That analogy isn’t the same, at all. The Chinese aircraft didn’t just check them out, they deliberately flew dangerous as an intimidation tactic. The Dutch airforce doesn’t do this to anyone in the North Sea, even Russian bobmers. They just intercept, follow and tell them to leave.

The Dutch aircraft and boats weren’t acting suspiciously or hostile at all. They were carrying out UN sanctioned activities. China is a permanent member of the UN Security Council they could have vetoed these activities if they didn’t agree with them.

China allowed this operation, then they the behaved deliberately dangerously as an intimidation tactic. China wants to spread propaganda that this is okay and normal behaviour, it isn’t. They want to normalise their behaviour so they can bully their neighbours easier than before. Similar tactics have lead to fishermen dieing due to Chinas aggressive posturing.

The worst is many of these apps are just websites repackaged as apps. They just want the elevated access being an app gives them.

Kitchen cabinet are made with veneered OBS. That is purchased cut and veneered to size like flat packs.

It’s possible someone with a CNC machine built this kitchen to be as cheap as possible (without including the expense of the CNC). The CNC would allow the tight tolerances and very little tare out you would normally expect with OBS.

OBS looks more ‘real’. Cabinets are usually made of MDF or OBS in the UK. MDF has great dimensional stability but it is prone to swelling in humid environments, so it would have a veneer or coat of paint in a kitchen.

Plywood is also much more expensive in the UK relative to OBS. I know OBS is made in the UK, plywood is more likely to be imported.

It’s taking a post modern architecture concept and applying it to just what the home owner can reasonably change.

The idea is that the building shouldn’t hide or obscure what the materials it is made from. You’ll see it in buildings with deliberate exposed pipes, exposed concrete, unfinished wood.

It’s about honesty and function.

The problem is to make this work they needed to go further or not so far. A polished concrete countertop, industrial tiles and industrial appliances could make this work better. Or using plywood rather than OBS.
