Well it’s good that EU coal consumption is falling too

This has always been the sync development cycle.

Dulce et Decorum Est

By Wilfred Owen

https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/46560/dulce-et-decorum-est

Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge,
Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs,
And towards our distant rest began to trudge.
Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots,
But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind;
Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots
Of gas-shells dropping softly behind.

Gas! GAS! Quick, boys!—An ecstasy of fumbling
Fitting the clumsy helmets just in time,
But someone still was yelling out and stumbling
And flound’ring like a man in fire or lime.—
Dim through the misty panes and thick green light,
As under a green sea, I saw him drowning.

In all my dreams before my helpless sight,
He plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning.

If in some smothering dreams, you too could pace
Behind the wagon that we flung him in,
And watch the white eyes writhing in his face,
His hanging face, like a devil’s sick of sin;
If you could hear, at every jolt, the blood
Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs,
Obscene as cancer, bitter as the cud
Of vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues,—
My friend, you would not tell with such high zest
To children ardent for some desperate glory,
The old Lie: Dulce et decorum est
Pro patria mori.```

It’s was sold to a Chinese company a few years ago.

Ah that makes sense then.

It’s customary in English to call people by their first name rather than their middle name, unless of course they choose to go by something different.

A May election is looking more likely no matter what Sunak tries to pretend.

Sync is a one time payment for ad-free. It’s ultra that is subscription which has a load of bumph you don’t need and ad-free as well.

As always?

The EU made apple use USB c on iPhones.

The EU made Microsoft make edge uninstallable.

If something like this had been about I’d have had it done at 21 rather than my wife fucking up her hormones with the pill for a few years before we ended up getting the permanent snip.

£500 well spent. Though I’m still annoyed that my local NHS trust wouldn’t fund it.

I got one this year and just can’t love it. It’s fine, but I definitely miss my pixel 5.

That doesn’t sound like it’ll be legal in a lot of countries.

since you can’t recognise an obvious joke.

That clearly goes both ways.

Maybe we’ve both got too used to dealing with yanks on the internet.

I didn’t know it was a competition as to whose government shit the bed worse. I guess making it one has to do with the inferiority complex you get from knowing all your ancestors were criminals.

That first panel was extremely relatable as a Brit.

Na mate, I asked first.

You got something to back that up? The last study I read (I think it was from Volvo comparing one of their EVs against the ICE version of the car) showed between 60 and 80 thousand miles (depending on the energy generation mix) was the tipping point where EVs became better.

And that was probably about 5 years ago, there’s been a lot of significant development in EVs since then.
