I would suggest that it was the broad outline of the same ending he planned and shared with DnD just implemented badly. He’s probably more pissed that they made his ending so unpopular by completely botching the landing as he now can’t use that same ending without risk of rejection. I still maintain it would have sucked as an ending even if it had been implemented at the same standard as series 5, but what we got made it far far worse.

Sway on ubuntu, as it’s my work machine. I will switch eventually when I replace the PC with a new one

At least it’s not on arch 😞

I went from 3 to 2, as I went from 2x24@1080p + 1x34@1440p to 2x32@4k. I the jump to 4k with such large screens meant I have a massive more amount of usable screen real estate especially as I do not use any scaling on the screens, although I do marginally increase the font size. I can manage six windows per screen all neatly tiled as long as its not my IDE, that I need a good 2/3rd of the screen to actually be useful for me.

It would be unmanageable if I tried to do this without a proper tiling window manager though, I use Sway. I particularly like how the virtual desktops work on Sway as I have separate virtual desktops per screen, makes them actually useful for me. Typically I have two per screen, IDE/Terminal and Discord/Signal/Music, Multiple Browser windows and Email/Teams/Office.

Pretty sure he pays cash or close to it rather than a traditional leveraged buy out. He normally only buys struggling or collapsed brands he can get cheap like Wiggle.

Ashley wants two main things out of his purchases, the brand name to slap on a web store with any head start it can give into running a business in that sector, and the retail space. Any decent retail space he wants to flip into residential property while stripping any fixtures and fittings of any value, anything else will be gone or rebooted into the lowest common denominator for that area.

UK you have the concept of black box car insurance that offered a substantial discount for having either a dedicated device installed into the car or an app on your phone that tracks a bunch of stats as you drive. It’s as shit as it sounds as it marks you down for every little infringement such as driving at peak times because that’s more dangerous. Get enough points and you can have your policy cancelled. In the UK there are knock on effects for ever having an insurance policy cancelled and you have to legally declare you did when asked.

While you can uninstall the app good luck making a claim if you don’t have it installed with data for that journey. They’d also be pretty suss with no data over an extended period of a few months.

Worst part of these is that it’s expensive to switch to a non black box policy when you can afford to as you get older and more experienced.

No, that there are and needs to be more alternate ways to manage the physical and mental addiction to excessive quantities of food such as appetite suppressants like Liraglutide and Semaglutide, similar to how methadone is a long to permanent part of a proper treatment plan to deal with opioid addiction.

We will need more such tools as there are many reasons people become addicted to excessive food and we will need multiple ways to treat it not just appetite suppressants. It has to be part of a proper treatment plan like we have with opioids in some countries that combine things like counseling and support groups with the medication.

Failure to treat this like a proper addiction and we will have the same lack of success we currently get from “move more, eat less” for long term weight loss. Its like telling smack addicts to stop shooting up or an alcoholic to just stop buying booze, it does not work.

But the high rate of attrition from the programme is a concern, he adds: less than one-third of people who are referred to the programme actually start it, and fewer still complete it.

This is always going to be the problem with any eat less and move more programs. Its not that all fat people are unaware of how to lose weight in this method (although some will and this will be useful for them) but that it is fucking hard for a lot of people to stick to, forever. Just look at the amount of people who successfully lose weight and then put it back on again a few years later, some studies have it at over 80% of people.

No other addiction program is trying to fix an addiction that you still have to consume what you are addicted to. No other addiction program is battling the pervasiveness of advertising and availability of “bad” or excessive quantities.

Until its treated properly as a proper addiction with similar alternatives like opiods to block behavior its just not going to fix itself.

Another fan of pikvm, love mine. I have it plugged into a HDMI switcher so I can control four boxes from one pikvm. It does use some pins so if you wanted to control the power switches you have to do some extra work.

Worth considering if you want to get a UPS at the same time for the NAS, pikvm and any networking you have. Will all last longer with one to avoid random power cuts or surges.

If you need to access it remotely I would strongly suggest getting wireguard or some other reliable VPN setup rather than exposing the web interface to pikvm directly to the internet.
