    I could substitute it for child, another group of people who are broadly less likely to know where the setting is, and it wouldn't be offensive that way either.

    Most of the rest of the world has no idea what -60°F means either

    How many of those are there? I've never encountered more than maybe one or two. Even illegal premier league streaming sites don't mind adblockers.

    Me too, ad blockers and all my media on Plex, etc. For me it's only when I watch live sport that I see adverts now, which I quite like, it's like a little window into what most oth…

    1 in 6 adults in the UK have poor literacy skills [0] so it's important for the Gov website to clearly give information to people who maybe don't have the best comprehension even i…

    I have a Giffgaff SIM for this reason. The expiry is 6 months and I have remembered to use it within that period so far. Not ideal but I would imagine you need a 2FA code more regu…

    Any company has to follow the law where they operate. Being an American-headquartered company doesn't really mean anything in this context.

    That's really interesting and completely the opposite to here. In London, most stolen bikes are expensive (or expensive-looking) and they are primarily resold within London.

    We have had this level of professionalism in London for some time now. It's not necessarily true that you must ride an older, uglier bike, though this will work. All that is needed…

    This is basically the case for every search I make now. Recipes, how to guides, DIY, programming, you name it. The SEO spammers have taken over the world.

    I"m doing by bit for those lighting sockets, I've just had about eight or ten installed all around my house. Turning on lamps from the wall light switch as you enter a room is a ma…

    Yes, you're right, here is far better than the FT. Badly phrased on my part I think. If you have a subscription and aren't using github/iamadamdev/bypasspaywalls then you can block…

    Tech workers salaries are going up everywhere, though, and it's happening in other industries too. It can't be because of Brexit that a bartender in NYC is getting paid more, but t…
