    The Royals

    Felt for the queen. Am a bit of a royalist and just see it as ongoing history. I think the alternative would be what the US has with celebrities and couldnt think of anything worse

    The New European Super (borefest) League

    LP fan here as well - I'd be done with them if they sign up to this. If its championship standard for whats left then so be it. We complain now about finances - it will only get more obscene for the teams in this new league

    Would you pay $750k for this punk? (NFT Art)

    I was actually on one of the markets thinking about maybe investing a few quid "just in case" but just couldnt talk myself into spending £100+ in Eth on some of this stuff. I would need to basically gamble the collection of 8bit stuff i invested in became the next crypto punks. Then I thought...

    I live in a village outside of Swindon now. OK to visit for the shops and the outlet centre but I dont think I could live there unless you have to.

    Home Assistant

    OK it looks like I have installed home assistant core and not supervised so some of the stuff I have been reading doesnt work - although I have managed to add HACS to it. I assume if I want the full blown version - I'll need to spin up a Debian image and install on that?

    Home Assistant

    as an added question - not entirely sure if I am happy with this docker method and thinking a new Raspi install might be better - any thoughts??

    Home Assistant

    Had a HA spun up on my QNAP NAS and its detected a few things round the house. Would be quite interested in putting cheapy temperture monitors in lots of rooms as I live in a old house and want to be able to track the house temps so I can think about my heating upgrades later this year. Anything...

    Greg Clarke "Filthy Racist" Resigns

    I heard this and then checked in with the wife what was officially not offensive at the moment. If I used the "wrong" term it wouldnt be because I was trying to cause offense, I just cant be bothered following the current trend on this or the LGBT stuff these days For context im mid 40's and...

    LED Batten Advice

    I have these in my garage - whilst the lights are really good those reviews are correct but then thats why they are the price they are. You attach the brackets, wire in the two wires and its done

    Bathroom ceiling caved in

No idea who people let these things happen - must have been like that for years A spot of mould in my place and the missis has got...

    Gumtree sale: Would you ship to Ireland after bank xfer payment?

    I now used Facebook marketplace on a cash on collection basis. Ebay have introduced their own payment systems so not sure if they do the whole paypal guarantee. Bank transfers - they will claim they never sent it and they have been hacked. Resulting in you losing the money and them getting it back

    Triple-lock on pensions will stay. Pensions will increase when earnings have decreased

    so is the problem Covid or the 17bn because clearly 17bn can be plucked out the air if it had to be? I think if you put is as do you think its ok for people to live on £1xx per week as their income it also sounds bad. Not saying finding the money would be a great thing but you got to pick and...

    Triple-lock on pensions will stay. Pensions will increase when earnings have decreased

    The whole thing is an anomaly and they will just take some sort of average figure from either the other two measures or the previous couple of years. Given that like the younger generation most of the pensioners are fairly poor they can have as much as they get out of the gov of the day. Living...
