It’s mostly their stuff, it wouldn’t make sense to charge them to look at it.

Is this the ‘elder abuse’ Republicans were projecting about?

So much to pull out of that article, mainly I would have been surprised if the crown wasn’t involved in slavery.

But this stuck with me:

Last week, a Downing Street spokesperson said the transatlantic slave trade was “abhorrent” but the UK position was that it does not pay reparations.

Hello downing Street spokesperson, not only do we pay reperations, we already paid reperations for slavery: to the slave holders for their loss of property (ghouls). As we allowed the descendents of the perpetrators to inherit the wealth slavery stole, perhaps we could allow the descendents of the victims of slavery to inherit some wealth too.

In the UK, you should not take pictures or videos of someone without their permission. This includes taking pictures or videos in public places like streets or parks

5th most CCTV cameras per capita than anywhere else in the world says what?

Labour are closer to Reform/Restore than Greens are. Economically, Labour are more likely to side with oligarchs (greens want a wealth tax, Labour doesnt. Socially Labour are more right wing than Greens (island of strangers speech, transphobia, support of an active genocide etc.) Economically and socially Labour are closer to the crazy Reform/Restore than Greens.

Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good, every party is going to have some thing you disagree with.

I use proxmox, all the *arrs are in one docker host running as an LXC. So the stack is: Proxmox> LXC> Docker Compose> Gluetun> *arrs.

I run it this way because ease of set up, as a normie Nix scares me in ways YAML doesn’t. It’s one big compose file, everything talks to each other using the virtual docker network. Update is one button. It just works™.

I have an Lxc running jellyfin as a front end, an Audiobookshelf Lxc, one running Seerr. A bunch of other front end service lxcs (Immich, Homarr, what have you). All the front ends have Tailscale installed for remote access.

Family and friends have a pi acting as an access point to Tailscale. Then it’s the nginx, pihole combo for nice URLs and HTTPS. Nothing is on the open web, it’s all behind tailscale.

I started on just a pi running docker running everything for my fiancée and I, then it just kinda grew. I originally just wanted to block ads.

Trash-guides is your friend for *arr set up. Dockstarter is your friend for basic installation of *arrs. Thousands of guides on YouTube to get you started.

petition.parliament.uk solely exists to try and stop protests. The government is happy to let us shout into the void.

and that’s the problem.

More true than he realises I’m sure.

This could be huge for me. I have a bunch of satellite rPis with diet pi on them, and I have never figured out how to properly update them over Tailscale¹. Having them all on Proxmox puts them all on a single dash and I can update them from there. The Pis only really run pihole, Tailscale, nginx anyways, and they’re all at friend/family houses; so I go around, see my friends, update the pi, not a problem.

¹What happens is Tailscale drops and that stops the session, stopping the update, breaking many things in the process. I have tried Screens and, background updates and all sorts… I, personally, have never gotten it to work.

Agreed, but I think the problem is all the stuff before paying the 16k back. We have already agreed on this. She should have paid the tax. The golden parachute was ridiculous.

Paying the 16k back is such a non-issue. I wouldn’t act differently about the 16k, you wouldn’t act differently about the 16k. Even the quantity, 16k, is such small potatoes when it comes to dodgy politician’s finances.

This is where we diverge. Enforcers of ‘should’ even if they just recently inherited the responsibility should do as their own rules oblige them to do

Didn’t I say that she should have paid the tax? That’s what their own rules oblige them to do. I think we agree on this point too. Could you expand on why you think we diverge here?

If I found a score on the pavement I wouldn’t stick up any posters about it. 16k in notes? I might have that as well, no need to trouble the constabulary

You don’t think this happened. You don’t think this is analogous to what happend. If you were sacked from a job, given 16k, rehired for the exact same job, I wouldn’t expect you to give the 16k back.

Of course the sticking point exists in both the tax avoidance & reward for failure and of course I wouldn’t turn down the cash if it were me.

Why craft farcical hypotheticals about a point you already conceded?

So we mostly agree then. Neither of us would have acted any different about the 16k then. The 16k is a complete non-issue.

Rules must apply more strictly to custodians & enforcers of those same rules

What should and what is are rarely the same. To be politically aware is to be constantly confronted between the difference of what should, and what is.

I dunno, in the face of 5+ million (Reform), duck motes (Conservative), and an actual genocide (Labour), this feel like such a strange thing to devote this much energy to.

Not really, why would it change my decision? If I was sacked, paid, rehired to the exact same job I’m not giving the money back. I don’t think you would, I don’t think you should. Why would it be different?

Surely the failure was in the tax avoidance? Or, the failure is in the golden parachutes politicians seem to get?

I saw some peeps with a solar powered bus, massive awning of solar as well as the whole roof. They’d have a travel day, then have to park up and trickle charge for a few days.

Cool if your lifestyle supports it though. They ran a couple ebikes for the day to day, and used the bus to short hop around the US.

If an employer offered me 16k to leave I’d happily take it. If they then offered me my job back, I’d probably go. If they then asked for the 16k they paid me, they can get fucked.

He didn’t mean those he refuses to see or hear.

Loves a chicken korma, but hates the hands that cook it - He’s a man, by Bob Vylan.

He was already in, if he wins, society hasn’t gotten any worse. Farage wants a circus, they’re just not participating. There’s now one anti-farage vote, so that’s not split giving the anti-farage the best chance of winning. Typically, the anti-establishment is one of Farage’s talking points, but now he’s up against a bin… All he’s fighting is against a bin… If you’re truely ‘fuck politics’, you’re voting for the bin.

If Farage loses to Count Binface however… A circus he wanted, a circus he got.
