They have put speed traps up on the motorway (M4 - The road that connects Slum and myself). They are busting people for driving at 80 mph - ON A MOTORWAY!! :reallymad:

There is no justification for it, but the police and council get to keep some of the fines. They are turning the motorway into a cash train.

So I'm off to join a protest against that. Quite what driving down the motorway within the speed limit (limit is 70, we're driving at 56mph) is going to achieve, I don't know, but it beats sitting around doing nothing!

Otherwise not much. Visit my brother Sunday. Monday is a bank holiday, but no plans yet.

When are we getting pictures of the cat Slum?

my spoing-iness is somewhat diminished by the three posts above me. :(

but forget about them. :lol: congratulations on your new mac, Dude, YAY! MI, speeding is above 56? isn't that an odd number, like not 55?

I had a look at the Apple Mini. I wasn't best impressed. I would have thought 5.1 sound should be standard, but it wasnt even available. The Airport card only comes with the top model too. I know we are talking computing on a budget, but these are basic features.

I guess I shouldn't be too suprised, it is from a company too stingy to give customers a second mouse button. <_>

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
