I actually support the farmers in this tbf. I just wanted to make a shit joke about them blocking green lanes and footpaths.

I try to avoid conspiracybrain but this policy seems so badly designed it seems as if the point is to force farmers into reverse mortgages.

If the real point is to make money for the treasury, discourage land banking and encourage more productive use of land, then a very modest land value tax would be more suitable and much fairer.

As it is, it's going to dispossess farmers of land and make a tiny amount of revenue from a tax that big business is immune from.

I've used TH72 a bit. I'd describe it more as shock proof than flexible. It'll certainly make your miniatures robust, but it's nowhere near as soft as something like TPU.

Telekinesis, and somehow looking like he's being filmed using early 90s TV cameras.

I found this by accident once. This sub reminded me it existed. If anyone knows anything similar, please post it.

I've been forced to do react for years and I still don't like or understand it. Most times plain JavaScript is easier and quicker to write and quite maintainable if people can resist the urge to take the piss with nested anonymous functions.

I honestly can't get my head around the idea that people can hit the ground running with react, but can't write unabstracted JavaScript. It's like a MotoGP rider not being able to ride a push bike.

Sorry about that. Only way I could think to stop spam was to use IP as unique id. Try disconnecting from WiFi.

Edit: if you've already voted, it overwrites that vote with the new one. This is just the quickest laziest way of stopping someone using a bot to skew the results.

Good point. I kinda rushed it and didn't really think to check. Just bought it cause .uk is a better tld

The first step in my mental roadmap for making this more than a toy is going to be user accounts and magic links, so small orgs can manually vet people for local party branches and meetings. I'll have to look into TLSNotary.

it's pretty good for things that I can eye scan and verify that's what I would have typed anyway. But I've found it suggesting things I wouldn't remotely permit to things that are "sort of" correct.

Yeah. I haven't bothered with it much but the best use I can see of it is just rubber ducking.

Last time I used it was to asked how to change contrast in a numpy image. It said to multiply each channel by contrast. (I don't even think this is right and it should be ((original value-128) * contrast) + 128) not original value * contrast as it suggested), but it did remind me I can just run operations on colour channels.

Wait what's my point again? Oh yeah, don't trust anyone that can't tell you what the output is supposed to do.

It depends what you want to do with it. Webtorrent-desktop has been my go-to for a while now. It's great for videos as it'll stream mp4 in the client or open mkv in VLC within a few seconds of starting a download.

I'm not even mad at the employers to be fair. The problem is that so many jobs are just busy-work that exists because as a society we can't imagine decoupling labour from subjugation.
