Biden has won https://twitter.com/DecisionDeskHQ/status/1324710866516905984?s=19 Predictions are Biden 306 v Trump 232 Not that close after all.

I am expecting Biden to take Georgia now because it is just mail in ballots being counted now and they are generally breaking 3:1 for Biden if not better.

Minimum Spec Pc For Internet Radio Station 24/7

The ridiculous thing from this is that the government tried their damndest to rig the committee to have a majority by removing the cross-bench peer Robin Janvrin. The idea was that the 4 Tory members would vote for Grayling and should have been enough to install him as chairman. But in proper cloak and dagger style, ALL opposition MPs of the committee voted for Lewis and Lewis voted for himself securing the majority. Wonderful quote from the FT about this; "One senior Conservative MP said the appointment of Mr Lewis as chair came as a surprise as No 10 had “stacked” the committee to ensure that Mr Grayling was elected. “Shooting fish in a barrel is supposed to be easy. It seems one of these fish shot back,” he said."

It would be political suicide if the inquiry isn't a public one.

Really, do you think the inquiry will not be a public one? Genuine question.

A public inquiry into the government's handling of coronavirus has finally been confirmed.

Cost of enforcing the borders post Brexit is ÂŁ7bn. This Brexit dividend is sweet. -
Virginmedia Wifi Losing Strength

I concur. I have absolutely no issues with mine, I can get down the end my road before I lose it completely while in the car. -
If you do get an electric toothbrush, make sure it has a lithium ion battery in it if it is rechargeable. I have seen some cheap Braun ones which aren't and the battery life and overall performance is shocking.

Are We Heading For A Recession Like In The 30s?
Albert the Cat replied to El Cid's topic in General Discussions
This is complete rubbish. Everything you have said here is wrong. -
People like mrcharlie have already made their minds up. There really is no possibility of convincing them otherwise. It is completely bizarre and totally unreasonable to have such animosity towards a group of people that had no choice in their circumstance. They are simply like sheep who just take an opinion that is fashionable at the time. The right wing press have their sights firmly set on furloughed workers. It will be the teachers next, especially when they do not want to die and question the government advice on the reopening of schools. Then it will be eventually the NHS when the doctors and nurses want the pay rise they deserve. It is quite disgraceful actually.

Shearing Holiday Group Have Gone Bust
Albert the Cat replied to rudds1's topic in General Discussions
No absolutely not. The government should not intervene to save a company if it is of no strategic importance. It is really that simple. -
You are so incredibly bitter it is quite unbelievable. I actually pity you. The people who are furloughed do not do it of their own volition. The government backed scheme is not a freebie as you would like to imagine. It is unfortunately very obvious that your little mind isn't able to understand the complexities of such an important move to stabilise the national economy. You seem to just want to hate on a group of people that the right wing press points at. So today it is furloughed workers. Who's next? Teachers? How about NHS doctors and nurses when they next ask for a pay rise?

Your entire post is quite pathetic. People like you are the reason the hatred for furloughed workers is growing. There is no reason for the level of animosity that you are displaying. The support for workers in this way is obviously far too complex in terms of economics for you to understand. Who are you going to rant on next for no good reason, teachers?

The Europeans will reciprocate. This will keep the underclass from travelling I suppose. Won't affect me or my family so not too bothered. -

Canon Lbp 6200 Printer Probs With Apple MacBook Pro
Albert the Cat replied to andco's topic in Computer & Tech Chat
Seriously, what kind of printer is only effectively supported for two OS revisions? Really? I have been running a Samsung Xpress M2026W for years and it still runs after 4 major MacOS revisions and ran it with Windows 7 and 10 along with Android 10 and 4 major versions of iOS. I would just bin the printer and pick something more reliable. -
Are We Heading For A Recession Like In The 30s?
Albert the Cat replied to El Cid's topic in General Discussions
I will not experience it personally as thankfully my livlihood is recession proof. However, more than overall damage to the national economy, it is the soical divide we should worried about as well. We'll come out of it on the right side, but for the majority, I am afraid it will be quite brutal. I have tried numerous times to advocate the advantages of more left wing policies for precisely situations like these were the majority will need to pull together for the greater good. For whatever reason, the selfishness of the majority seems to not want to help each other. So, I simply do not care for the greater good anymore. I am just going to grab my popcorn and spectate. -

Keir Starmer has blind sided the PM. He agreed that there shouldn't be a Brexit extension. So simply put, go deliver this unicorn you promised us or get crucified. -
We as engineers can earn more than that because of the hours we work and the nature of the work. To be honest, I think we are under paid. However, the footballers should not be expected to donate a penny. You lot are missing the big picture. The general public have allowed them to be paid such huge sums of money. Don't support the sport if there are issues that you don't like, it really is not hard.

I am with Three. The sure fire way to get decent customer service is to make a formal compliant. I can guarantee that someone from a UK based call centre will call you back. Apple can't unlock your phone, it has to be via a network provider if it was originally locked. Your beef is with Three.

I would expect the SMART indicators will tell you was well.
