This’ll happen in the EU and in the UK. I don’t think it matters that much, electric cars are trendy now and culture is changing. Even if they don’t ban I don’t think it’ll be long before petrol/diesel car sales sit at around 30%.

They should make it a law to require adequate parental controls to exist on a phone in a way that parents can use them, then teach the parents how to use them. If your kid goes and starts viewing porn then it’s your own fault.

My house barely has enough room for my stuff, never mind weeks of food.

Still popular in a lot of poorer places. If you have no infrastructure then it’s often the most suitable means of keeping warm at night, especially since you don’t really need to worry about storage or anything.

I honestly don’t mind as long as it’s down with permission. At least Microsoft are trying to do something interesting, computers are so boring nowadays. You could take any of the operating systems and wind them back five years and I probably wouldn’t notice.

“mostly because the English have been trying to erase Irish culture for centuries”

What on earth are you on about? Do you think anyone in England is waking up thinking about ways to suppress Irish culture? You do realise that England and Ireland are separate countries now?

Isn’t part of the problem that the EV market basically belongs to China right now. If they said you could only buy EVs then they’d be saying you can’t buy cars made in the EU. my understanding is that even EVs made by EU manufacturers have all the important stuff made in China.

This looks bad for Mandelson and Clinton but there’s not really incriminating about Blair. They met at Downing Street for 30 minutes at Mandelson’s recommendation and talked about politics.

Does that include anyone?

I’ve never been asked for any of this stuff but I think it’s literally because my email account is so old.

I’d actually rather they make electric vehicles more attractive than just ban combustion engines. People are moving over anyway, it’d be better if people were excited about changing instead of bitter.

I’m pretty sure there’s plenty of people out there who know exactly who Banksy is. It’ll be like with The Stig, all the journalists knew who he was but the mystery was more interesting and sold more papers.

It is but this kind of cultural change takes generations. I remember a couple of years ago seeing a newspaper article celebrating Rabat having its first female taxi driver, then a few months later I saw a video of a kid being beaten by her Dad because she had a boyfriend. There’s a big cultural divide between the people who’ve been raised with traditional values and the newer generations who been raised by the internet. Moroccans are not worldly people.

I do this, it’s been one with other providers but I don’t use Netflix.

This whole thing feels like a waste of effort and just a massive distraction. PA were banned because they tried to sabotage military resources, not because they’re supporting Palestine. Just rebrand and move on.

If the government allowed it then suddenly the Russians, Chinese, Iranians, etc, would all be outfitting protest groups to undermine the UK’s military preparedness.

Everyone’s scared of Reform getting in and yet Reform are the only ones promising to reverse all this. All this is done based off the back of a 2016 survey where parents said they were worried about kids watching porn on the internet, but the survey gave no indication of what a solution would look like and gave no mention to online age verification and banning VPNs.

This’ll be the second time they’ve taken territory from Ukraine and gotten away with it. They’ll probably take Belarus once that dictator dies, and they’ll eventually take Moldova since they already control part of it. They’ll keep trying to take all of Ukraine until it happens.

Every ISP and device has built in parental features.

This is ridiculous, every kid in the country will know how to start up a VPN and get around this. In another article some campaigner called Naomi is claiming there’s a big correlation between sexual abusers and viewing violent porn. That’s like saying there’s a big correlation between people who drink water and being thirsty, so water must make people thirsty. Kids start forming their impressions of women when they’re born, they don’t suddenly change from respectful young men into misogynists in the time it takes to have a wank.

She also says that by stopping people from watching porn it’ll eventually lead to porn being eradicated. She’s delusional.

If he’s on the Photos team he probably deserved to be fired. The new Photos app is dogshit.
