All fair points for a motorway/highway/freeway/whatever. I’d mistakenly thought the previous post was referring to a smaller local road with a 55mph limit.

I don’t really care so much about what speed people do on motorways, but I have a massive problem with people doing 40-60mph in a 20-30mph limit residential area. Bear in mind where I live in the UK, the cars are driving 2 metres from the front door of everyone’s houses.

I don’t think it’s just Gen-Z.

Here’s former Manchester United and England footballer Gary Neville, telling us about his “mini-retirements”

Gary Neville - Mini-Retirements (youtube link)

Gary is 50 years old.

You can search directly for “Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact”.

Not personally, no - but the police would only need to catch a handful each day to get things moving a little more safely in the area.

Why don’t they confiscate driving licences and imprison all the criminals who are driving 20-25mph dangerously over the limit?

Having read that, yes :)

Reet grand.

Hahaha.

I used to have a home office room, and I bought and installed a whiteboard on the wall, for noting things down, planning, to-do list etc.

For five years, it had a single scrap of paper blue-tacked to it, which read “1) Buy a whiteboard pen”.

I eventually solved it by moving house.

I think it only works if your brain is wired in a particular way.

Tons of open browser tabs? Long, impossible-to-complete to-do list? Unread emails? Unplayed Steam Games?

Good chance of it working :)

When I wanted to stop smoking, the idea of never smoking again would make me stressed and make me want to smoke.

The solution was I put “have a cigarette” on my to-do list, at the bottom.

So I never quit smoking, I’m definitely going to have a cigarette at some point, when I get round to it - just after I’ve re-tiled the bathroom, wrote a novel, made a computer game, taught the cat to play piano, finished a series of 100 paintings, wrote an album of songs etc…

… so it’s over ten years since I last had a cigarette, and there’s only a thousand or so things to do on my to-do list.

Meanwhile in Britain, M1 is the name of the first Motorway (i.e. highway) M1 Motorway (Wiki link)

It runs from Leeds to Sheffield in Yorkshire, then goes down South somewhere or other.

So, with a bit of planning, you could drive your M1, full of your other M1s down our M1.

Ah, looks like the old “eat yourself entirely, so you are invisible, then when the plane is on the return flight, you poo yourself back out again” trick.

Aren’t these both missing the large French army and navy which actually won it?

*runs away giggling and hides*

Though that sort of makes sense for traffic moving smoothly and consistently, I thought speed limiters on large/heavy vehicles was mostly due to the braking time/distance rather them fitting amongst speeds of other traffic?

If it helps even one person, it’s worth it.

A tiny word in the right place could absolutely make the difference on that day - you’re likely working with people who have a constant negative internal voice, and possibly all other sources of positivity and support in their lives have gone - who have thought or heard nothing positive for hours or days. Perhaps it’s not a lot, but sometimes a tiny shred of positivity, kindness or beauty can make enough of a change for today.

I think it’s a great project you’re doing.

I guess it’s relative. There’s always room to become more isolated and more weird :)

A small amount of time off, on my own, where nobody interacts with me. Not too much time off though, else you risk becoming isolated and weird.

They exist. Go on a Steam discussions page for a popular game that doesn’t currently support Linux, and create a new post politely asking about the possibility of Linux support.

*A wild WINDOWS ZEALOT appears*

This is good, but how do I keep my data safe from cats?

This is a really cool collection. Are they all part of the same “sci-fi universe”, or even part of a larger graphic novel or comic?

Bonus “cool points” for having a cross section of a building with lots of tiny people attacking each other in gory ways :)
