Glad to hear it!

Yes it is a product of those things, if you’re thinking about it then please see someone and work out a path to better mental health.

We only get one life, it would be a tragedy to waste it!

Two people close to me have gone from “normal” to suicidal and back again in the last 6 years, for different reasons and at different times. Thankfully they are both stable and enjoying their lives now.

If you’ve not witnessed anything like that, count yourself lucky. I remember talking to people about suicide when I was younger and couldn’t understand how anyone could get to that place until I saw someone I know really well go through a complete mental breakdown.

It does have a similar vibe to when Liz Truzz killed the Queen

Didn’t he send another cardinal to lecture Vance?

Exactly.

There are lots of people in this thread who aren’t familiar enough with how the UK system works (understandably, because it’s not a UK community). A lot of those people have jumped to the wrong conclusion.

It makes me wonder how often I get the wrong end of the stick when it comes to US/international politics etc.

Yeah it’s going to be a legal mess for a while and I do sympathise with people who are affected. Something for parliament(s) to sort out.

The courts in the UK are not politicised like in the US.

“Judges say the “concept of sex is binary” while cautioning that the landmark ruling should not be seen as victory of one side over another”

They interpret the law as it’s written (I.e. about sex, not gender), so to change this you would need a new law. It’s not supposed to be a moral judgement.

I haven’t used windows in about 15 years on my personal machines but see 7zip referenced everywhere…why is it so popular? Can windows 10/11 or whatever we’re on now not compress/extract most things itself or do people prefer it for some reason (nice interface etc)?

I’m always amazed when I’m following a tutorial written for windows and it says “download and install 7zip, then extract the file using 7zip”. I just right click the file and extract it…
