    The ongoing Elon Twitter saga: "insert demographic" melts down

    The problem with Tesla's FSD is that 6-7 years ago they were behind most of the competitors yet Musk was saying they were a year behind full public release and charging Tesla customers crazy amounts for a promised imminent FSD. Then over the next years they fell even further behind while Google...

    Do you charge your children "keep" or rent? Do/did you pay it yourself?

    Nope and i won't, rather i would give them an allowance. If they have a part time job at uni i would probably give them top ups. Why charge them given that when I die they'll get it back again

    Are you a top revenue earner?

    That is the entire purpose of NMW though, it isn't designed so all salaries increase in line, but to proactively reduce income divide.

    No, it is far worse around keto. They have formed a cult and are completely indifferent to the science

    Ballot Paper - None of the Above (NOTA)

    no tell me, because a NOTA is counted the same way as a spoiled ballot, even if separated in statistics, and they are completely ignored when deciding upon the vote winner.

    National insurance cut

    indeed, Russia's invasion has shown us that both the west underestimated risks but equally massively overestimated Russia's capabilities. Russia is struggling with Ukraine when before the invasion there were expections of Ukraine being steamrolled in 1-2 weeks. Russia is now weaker than ever...

    Ballot Paper - None of the Above (NOTA)

    i have nothing against it but it is just a complete waste of time and won't make any difference. I would much rather people focused their efforts on getting PR, controlling media influence especially by foreign states, or simply actively participating in politics. Saying you don't like the...

    Ballot Paper - None of the Above (NOTA)

    well separating no votes, no votes and NOTA might have some merit i fail to see what difference it would make? The problem with elections is they are only reflective of a singular point on time, and are heavily biased by voter turnout and media propaganda in the run up to the election. Actual...

    Ballot Paper - None of the Above (NOTA)

    Yes, absolutely. Whether they care or do anything is another matter. Tories only care about their rich mates snd sponsors, but they absolutely do know what may help them get votes even to the detriment of the country such as tax cuts and hundreds of millions wasted on sending a few people to...

    Ballot Paper - None of the Above (NOTA)

    But what do you expect that to achieve? There are already lots of polls about people's happiness with politicians, government, policies etc. and these are sometimes shown in media. I think the advocates are massively underestimating how many people will bother turning up to vote just to have...

    Ballot Paper - None of the Above (NOTA)

    But political parties already know who does and doesn't vote and what different demographics think of their policies. In your scenario it simply means 1 party will still get voted in and many people wasted their time and effort

    Ballot Paper - None of the Above (NOTA)

    And what do you expect will change? Your NOTA vote won't influence the outcome of the election and will be ignored by the parties. The effect is identical to not voting at all. The only place i can see it making sense is if voting was mandatory and you would face a fine for not voting, then a...
