Is this on an electric bike? Ive never replaced my chain ring, but I ended up getting a hub-geared belt drive bike last year after getting fed up with crappy derailleurs and replacing broken chains. It’s brilliant.

Valid, if they created this update before November 2023 when 6.6 was released, and have needed to test Steam OS with the 6.5 kernel for a whole year before releasing it.

Weird that they went to kernel 6.5 which is already a year old, rather than going to the LTS version 6.6 which is still in support.

Making short term rental completely illegal is not a good idea as it would impact on local tourism etc, but they should allow (or force) councils to limit licences for short term rentals to a certain percentage of housing.

“Duh bruuthooth bwattery ish wunnin row”

I take it from the article that Times Radio specifically asked Louise whether Starmer had a problem with women as part of an interview - she’s hardly going to say yes!

Times Radio probably asked her based on Duffield’s shit-stirring and the fact that Sue Gray is a women. That makes two women who have left the government, therefore Starmer must hate all women! A pretty dumb conjecture by the Times, but I guess that’s the right wing media’s job.

If those rich people are willing to move to shitholes like Dubai to save a few quid in tax, they were probably going to do it anyway.

The last Austrian that did big damage to the world would beg to differ

My son had a book called “You’re Called What?!” which featured a tasseled wobbegong, alongside other animals such as the Shovelnose Guitarfish, Bone Eating Snot Flower Worm, and the Aha Ha.

Not a “Starmerite sycophant” whatever the hell that is. I am not a fervent supporter of any political party. I simply do not believe that Labour are inherently islamophobic - I’ve seen nothing to suggest that. Im not trying to cover anything up or deflect by saying that the Tories are Islamophobic. It’s relevant because the Tories have been in power and controlling foreign policy up until a month or so ago. If the Tories were still in charge, there would have been no change to the UK gov’s position.

Not that I think that Islamaphobia is the driving factor behind support for Israel, nor do I pretend to fully understand, besides the obvious fact that they’re an existing ally and were attacked by terrorism which kicked this off.

The tide is turning against the Israelian government’s scorched-earth policy but it’s taking too long, especially from the US side. Seemingly the Israelian people are also taking issue with their government’s position which is more pressure than we can exert from our side.

Btw Jeremy Corbyn was vindicated for what, defending Hamas and Hezbollah? Plenty of people have stood up for Palestine over the years without standing up for Hamas. Palestinians deserve to be free, not controlled by Hamas terrorists.

Labour has a far far less of an islamaphobia issue than the Conservatives.

Labour did previously have a antisemitism issue however, and undoubtedly they’re hesitant to do anything which might be tagged antisemitic (even if it’s not).

But despite that, they haven’t been in power for long and have already done far more than the Tories did.

No, they clearly aren’t trying to appear racist, or even directly court their votes. They just don’t want to actively feed into the idiotic theories that stoke tensions.

Oh man, I haven’t heard that one before. Bona fide quality conspiracy theory 👍

No one even mentioned Zionism or Israel…

It’s more that it’s a tactical choice to avoid polarising people. There’s nothing material to gain by attending the protests, and much to lose in terms of pissing off the far right more and destabilising a precarious situation.

The shit-stirrers like Farage would immediately whip up some bullshit that Labour MPs attending anti-fascist protests is “proof” that the government are choosing to politically punish the far right protesters. The last thing Starmer wants is a resurgence of disorder.

Even though being anti-fascist is an obvious virtue, I presume it’s to avoid the appearance of prosecuting the rioters for political reasons. Starmer wants to make it purely about the lawbreaking rather than their political aims.

Second Mihon. It’s an all-in-one downloader and reader, and supports reading offline.

That’s not denial, it’s looking at the evidence.

It’s not used as a healthcare metric. This is just debunking reports that a healthcare policy was directly causing an “explosion” in suicides.

We’ll see what he tells parliament, but IMO it’s reasonable for him to follow the science, get more trials done ASAP and approve the medicine if the evidence shows. As long as these kids get appropriate care in the meantime without delay.

Approving medicine counter to scientific advice sets a bad precedent, may cause more issues, and might attract lawsuits from terfs etc.
