You can get past these with a user agent, lying about which browser it is. However, they aren't testing for other browsers, so their site maybe as buggy as hell. As yet Firefox doesn't do a WINE and match Chrome, bug for bug, so sites work as intended. Google have cause IE6's return.

They just want some justification and reenforcement. If it saves anything, that is all they need. I was the crazy own bags dude before the charge, and now everyone is bringing their own bags too.

Thank you. I expected to be download badly. Nice to be wrong about that.

We don't know the details yet. But, if this stabber was a white kid, we'd all be talking about mental health. Non-white kids of immigrants can also have mental health issue. But the worse of the country jump straight to racism, blaming the culture of the immigrant. If this lad grew up here, he has been surrounded by our culture. If there is mental health issues, it's our fault it wasn't caught in time. If he went mental for cultural reasons, we can't wash our hands of that either. If we want assimilation, we can't other people.

Please build a decent train line then. Doesn't have to be HS2. Just connect the north more with affordable trains.

I know, but there us as quiet war going on between the chippers and manufacturers. EV is a new battle front and we the consumers are losing right now.

Law makes need to join this century and get involved ensuring competition and longer product lives.

They DRM it all if we let them. We must not. It should going the other way. More open, repairable and upgradable.

Without right to repair, there will be planned obsolescence.

My Citroen EV developed an on board charger fault. It wouldn't charge. The part was a "coded part" which meant it had to specifically programmed with my EV's ID by Citroen at manufacture. It took months to finally be fitted and ready. So basically, not only does the coded parts system make service shit, but also means when the manufacturer is done making the part, the car is dead. You can't swap parts between cars and there is no third party parts. It's meant to be about car theft, but it's very convenient it blocks competition and long product life....
