What apps do they have that there isn't an Android equivalent for?

"corporate Gestapo"? Get real. I'm talking about standard regulations that all but conspiracist nutjobs would accept. Basic stuff like road…

Not that good an analogy really if you're trying to say that you should be teaching kids responsibility and safety in the outside world…

Have you travelled outside Australia in the last ten years? They've been collecting biometric data for a long time, and by "they" I mean…

That'll get you a position in Trump's cabinet.

Perfectly free to say what you want. Freedom from the repercussions? We don't talk about that.

True. But having seen the abuse that some kids have to experience before CPS take action, you're deluded if you believe they'd get involved…

Yes, and? Being aware of the realities of how governments work and the restrictions placed upon them makes for a better informed voter. Did…

Fair enough, my mistake.

> The aim is to stymie algorithmic feeds that bait people into engagement. For young people it is often via destructive content, often body…

>Great, so ban it for adults as well if it's so bad. Whilst we're at it, might as well ban fast food, sugary drinks, skydiving, mountain…

No excuses here. Pretty sure that to have visibility over 100% of a kid's internet access you would need to have them chaperoned 24 hours a…

That's when you sleep head to toe. Also helps ensure you're not blasted with your tent-mate's breath, prompting weird dreams about chemical…

Simple. I'm connected to a VPN about half of the time, maybe more. Never had any issues accessing reddit.

Are you a parent? If so, do you have total control over their access to internet connected devices? At home? When they're with friends?…

Alternatively, the government have been listening to people (parents, mental health professionals etc.) about concerns of children's use of…

That's pretty standard and has been for many years in schools. I used to work for an MSP that had schools as clients and the IT teams were…

I think that's probably quite fair, with the important qualifier being "conviction", so it's not just someone saying "he/she did this". I…

That sounds pretty standard for a "trekking" tent. If you're going to be carrying the thing, you accept a little personal space…

I've been following this with great interest - https://www.reddit.com/r/beatnikAudio/ It's essentially a "roll your own" alternative which,…

Don't blame them. Sonos lost their shine in recent years and haven't had a solid, reliable product for a while. If the Ikea branded Sonos…

Also pretty easy. Did just that yesterday.

They were Voskhod Teflon Coated blades. They were so bad that I threw them out rather than keep them as backups.

I got a cheap blade tin from AliExpress and it looks remarkably like a kid's money box with the slot in the top. [Like this…

Somebody on here recommended some Russian blades a while back and I bought some out of interest. They were the worst blades I'd ever used.…

I just shave after a shower and use olive oil instead of any of the usual foams, soaps etc. I was once told that I smell lovely as I'd used…

I use Feather and they last about 6 shaves. I tend to "strop" them after a couple of uses though just by pushing them along the band bit of…

Very good idea to mention that they have limitations. Our sparkies at work aren't keen on them as they can give false negatives, i.e.…

Does seem that way. "I am not insured for this." They don't need to be, it's under the care of the service centre, it's covered by their…

PTFE in general isn't great, it's just that people like the convenience and ignore the inconvenient bit about it being bad for you. Like a…
