I raised the possibility of buying a Subaru with my local mechanic and he described me as "brave". He mentioned that the ridiculously high prices for fixing up my Merc (like £600 for a hosepipe) would be peanuts compared to Subaru repairs, and that's assuming he could even get the parts. So I got another Volvo.

What an unbelievably badly one-sided way of writing an article! Date - Israel did this; date - Israel did that; date - Israel did the other.

If you're just scanning the page you'd get the impression Israel are constantly attacking Palestinians for no reason. But in most of the paragraphs you just read on a bit to get the background: IDF said, and Hamas confirmed, that their fighters shot first.

The vast majority of that article could be rewritten as: Date - Hamas attacked Israel who responded in self-defence.

I've never been able to see the point of repeated ads. If I didn't want the thing 30 seconds ago I'm still not going to want it now. PTL for 30s jump forward, not even fastforwarding ads these days.

There are tricks like that for a lot of numbers. For 7, chop off the last digit, double it and add it to what's left. Repeat as required. If the result is divisible by 7 then the original number was. eg: 356 -> 35+12=47 not db7. 357 =>35+14 both db7 so we don't even need to do the add.

Found that function in about 0.75s. Click the username. Now click "Block User" which is on the top line.

No. What he was saying is that everything you do starts off as a thought. So instead of policing your own actions, police your own thoughts and don't entertain the bad ones when they enter your mind. Then when the opportunity presents itself - let's say she indicates she's up for a quickie behind the bike sheds, if you've already been fantasising about all the different scenarios you're much more likely to take her up on it than if you haven't. Therefore you should consider thinking about adultery as being just as bad as the act itself, even though it really isn't.

Mmm, but what's their plan to resist enshittification? After all, Google started out as "fundamentally different, user-centric." What will Kagi do when their market penetration peaks and the business managers demand more growth?
