    I'm lucky to even get wifi that works, so VPN, whatever that is, is not going to be on my list of essential things.

    I can't get BBC without paying for it and the BBC isn't worth my money. It went woke years ago. I used to be an avid Casualty fan, from the very first episode with a very young Charlie Fairhead driving a clunker Land Rover. I hadn't seen it while in LOS and when I got the chance about 2 years ago I watched one episode, and had to stop half way through. They turned a great concept into some woke pile of steaming manure. Shame as it used be excellent.

    While I agree, I think a snowball in hell has a better chance of not melting than a real redistribution of wealth. After all, who makes the rules?

    Hmmmmm. Did they not keep records during the depression?

    So she's finally gone, hurrah. IMO politicians like her are the reason for imposing limits on time allowed in congress/ parliament/ etc.

    Actually what we buy won't be tracked by a human- it will be AI using algorithms, and what could possibly go wrong with that? Just because you live under an OK government at the moment doesn't mean that in 10 years time it's not like a Chinese government, and then you might have something to worry about, even if it was something you posted 10 years ago on TVF.

    Lucky you, but I don't want some spotty geek knowing what I buy.

    Fine for those that are early birds, but I'm a night owl and go to bed well past midnight.

    There is absolutely nothing I can do about inflation etc, so why worry about it? I don't have a mortgage so don't have to worry about losing my home. If the pension becomes too low to rent anything I can buy a van and live in a carpark like many do now. If food becomes too expensive I understand that dog food is nutritious. End of the day, I've past my sell bay date anyway, so nothing to regret if worst comes to worst.

    I have brunch everyday. I'm retired and don't have to get up at 6 am any more, thank the deity.

    They do if your battery is flat.

    That's not something I'm aware of as I won't watch tv any more ( except for Al Jazeera news channel and they don't have ads beyond promoting the airline ). Anything they have that's watchable is plagued with so many ads that I refuse to be a target demographic any more.

    Correct. White and black are not colours.

    People that want to go cashless, IMO never think about things like power cuts. No power how does the shop's reader work? Or, the card gets blocked for some reason. My father had his card eaten by an ATM on a Saturday and had to wait till Monday to get any money. Life is never perfect and bad stuff happens.

    So, let's say someone like you is visiting some place far from a bank and you lose your card for any one of a dozen reasons. How do you pay for anything? PS I always have my cash in more than one place, so the chance of it all getting lost is minimal. My memory is so bad I could use the card and leave it behind.

    You want Big Brother knowing everything you do?

    While I agree with most of your post, I disagree that Biden looks healthy. IMO he is looking way older than his years, and has none of the vitality that Trump has.

    Given I think that Brexit was an excellent event, I can't agree with you.
  19. thaibeachlovers
    Not always. After Clinton survived the scandal he co operated with the GOP and they got stuff done.
  20. thaibeachlovers
    Why not? The president doesn't have to be the same party as the majority in congress.
  21. thaibeachlovers
    Thank you for your post. Yes, blocking Biden's agenda is enough- indeed fantastic. Perhaps you can stick to the topic though. It's not about 5 or 6 years ago.

    I don't think so https://ballotpedia.org/Liz_Cheney Cheney (Republican Party) ran for re-election to the U.S. House to represent Wyoming's At-Large Congressional District. She lost in the Republican primary on August 16, 2022. https://edition.cnn.com/2022/10/28/politics/liz-cheney-political-future-endorsement/index.html Wyoming Republican Rep. Liz Cheney will be leaving Congress soon,

    Apparently they still use them as air defence, though I doubt they'll be getting a resupply any time soon.

    Given activity I am unable to comment on I am putting you on ignore. Bye.

    Not selecting Trump to run for POTUS would be a good start.
