Suspect your daughter may be downplaying things a bit here…
She got the top result possible. Students who achieve First with honours (sometimes written as 1:1) have to be even better than excellent across their entire degree.
Some years nobody on a particular course will do this well, because it is reserved for the exceptional.
Of course, but that’s considerably harder to address via criminal law.
Going after people in office (& people running for office & political parties) for misleading the public is much easier, as you can impose a duty on them.
Most one could do is go after them once in office if they lied whilst campaigning for election to that office. You could maybe go after them even if they don’t win that election.
It probably needs to be done as a strict obligation to not say anything in office or when campaigning which is not verifiably true.
Would also need to be backed with hefty fines on parties if one of their candidates are proven to have lied, or if the party spread that lie.
Tbh any version would be very hard to get right, and if it isn’t robust the likes of Farage will use it as yet another tool of discord & disruption as they attack democratic institutions and the rule of law.
BEES.
But Beehaws would work too.
Beezers?
That Keirbot is weirdly hot. Will be holding you responsible if it, or a Keirbot army, features in some bizarre sex dream tonight.
Very cool & giving me some inspiration for… stuff.
Momentarily thought they were mailing out hard copies, as they seek a mailing address to check out a book. I get this is likely to comply with copyright obligations, or just because the charity lacks the resources to supply the entire world, but it is a vulnerability should the library be attacked. Suggest users furnish addresses they do not live at - ideally non-residential addresses - addresses of campaign offices of local homophobic & transphobic representatives would work, but so would govt departmental buildings or commercial premises which are used by a lot of people (best to not put some randomer at risk).
Am tired, but bit confused at sequence of events.
Did Russia ban Mozilla from offering specific extensions, whereupon Mozilla removed for Russian users the banned extensions?
Or…
Did Russia ban Mozilla from offering some undefined type of extension, whereupon Mozilla removed for Russian users any which seemed to fall under the ban under an abundance of caution until they could assess each & reinstate those which did not fit the ban?
Or, more worryingly, but maybe implied by the supposed temporary intent of the ban…
Did Russia ban Mozilla from offering specific extensions, whereupon Mozilla temporarily removed for Russian users the extensions in order to give Russia the ability to track or otherwise meddle with Russian users of those extensions… or to enable Russia to interfere with the extensions’ code for their own ends?
I feel I can make a reasonable guess, but there’s a fairly big safety issue here depending on what happened.
Anyone dissenting within an authoritarian regime knows to exercise extreme caution, but always good to put out reminders to have multiple layers of protection, so if one fails you are still ok.
“Farage was determined to be there at the start of it, aged 29, having been propelled to live life to the full, he has said, after being knocked down by a Volkswagen Beetle and then having his left testicle removed due to cancer.”
Volkswagen Beetles
ONE ball
So much hope we’re not being reference trolled here. This is too much delicious (if ominous) synchronicity. Cackling but I do not like it, not one bit.
He’s still pretending to pretend that he’s merely hard right.
This guy is openly and avowedly fascist, and probably thinks Farage is a filthy liberal, albeit a very useful one.
The lad hoofling spaghetti into himself and grabbing another handful as the stall holder is busy trying to stop the tall guy.
If they’re incidental to some other thing you are filming, probably ok but consider blurring their faces prior to publication.
If filming as evidence, consider not uploading or sharing unless you have exhausted other avenues of getting that evidence to the relevant people.
True, though curiously if you appear with a big camera people respond far better than to a phone camera, despite the familiarity of the latter.
You could try NextDNS. It won’t let you designate access per app, but you can create custom blocklists. Short-term logging makes it easy to see at a glance which domains are being requested, and it doesn’t take long to get it all set up so that your apps only contact stuff which is strictly necessary in your view. Also comes with many blocklists to choose from, as well as other useful settings.
Because when your incredibly distressed child needs an explanation for the horrors they just saw on their screen, you suddenly feel more willing to accept a much higher level of dire conditions to shield your child from experiencing war.
Reminder that Sunak’s father was an NHS GP, and his mother a pharmacist who ran her own local pharmacy, so he has a lot of personal knowledge of the strain healthcare was under during much easier times.
YES & YES.
So in ordinary moronland, just back from voting on a metre-long ballot comprising 6 Fascists (mercifully unpopular), 3 NazBols (could fool some), 3 Tankies (quite popular) & 11 assorted others.
Now slinging Jagermeïster & have already mistaken some supposed local hotshot from the arts for a locum parish priest. He’s ever so slightly regretting having asked why I thought he looked familiar.
Gonna regale us with tales from the front?
STOP MAKING ME LIKE YOU SO MUCH ALREADY!!
Which symphony?
Besides which, D-Day commemorations would have been planned much further back than that, including the attendance of the British PM. That would have been in the diary of No.10 long before Sunak himself took office, with just very fine details to tweak nearer the day.
Wildly impressed at the homegrown cures.
Anyhow, assume this week’s Witching Hour has struck, as my notifications tell me I missed a reply before it was deleted.
Come rail at us if you need to. Am a reasonably ordinary moron if that helps!!
A whole week later and no bizarre dreams involving the Keirbot army, nor anything related to same.
Which ombudsman do I go to here about this complaint?
