Think of the children!
  • We have the option to go private too. My brother had his NHS appointment delayed due to doctors’ strikes so he went private and got his operation done very quickly.

    Because he had insurance already it only cost him about £150.

  • The Biden administration’s new automatic braking rule is “impractical,” auto industry says
  • What is feasible is a speed limiter based on the posted limit, but that'd be too practical.

    I have recently got a car that tells me the currently posted limit and it is frequently wrong. It misses sign posts and sometimes thinks that a signpost for a side road applies to you.

    It also has a speed limiter and a button to set the limit to the detected speed which I use a lot but I wouldn’t want it to do it itself.

  • For Many Greeks, Six-Day 48-Hour Work Week Now Set to Begin July 1st
  • I don’t get something about the article. They are saying that there is a labour shortage so they need to do this but they also say that the employers have all the power.

    Usually, a labour shortage means that the employees have the power so you’d have thought that they’d have been able to tell the employers to piss off when they try to increase their hours.

  • Landmark UK Supreme Court Ruling 'Slams Brakes' on New Fossil Fuel Projects
  • Sunak’s (official)reasoning when he gave the go ahead for more fossil fuel production was that we aren’t losing our dependence on fossil fuels any time soon and it was better for the environment to produce the energy locally rather than importing it.

    The real reason was probably money.

  • Has Anyone Ever?
  • I used to hate that they had a consent option and a legitimate interest option for the same thing. It wasn’t clear what would happen if I agreed to one and not the other.

    Then they started being explicit and saying that these “partners” require consent and these others require you to object to their legitimate interest and now I hate it more because there are hundreds of these “partners”.

  • America is next: South African minister says countries aiding Israel liable for ICC prosecution
  • It means as much as it does for Isreal who also doesn’t participate in the ICC.

    Technically, any American who is convicted (I’d imagine it could be President Biden and Anthony Blinken who they would try to prosecute) cannot travel to ICC countries otherwise they’d be arrested.

    Even if they were tried and convicted nobody would do anything about it.

    Can you imagine the shit show that would ensue if someone tried to arrest the US President as he visits their country.

  • Problems with Zigbee2mqtt

    I run HA in Docker and I have set up Mosquito MQTT and Zigbee2mqtt in other containers.

    I can add Zigbee devices into Zigbee2mqtt and they automatically turn up in the MQTT integration. The problem is that they usually don’t have the control entities in HA. This means that I can’t activate switches by clicking on them in HA.

    Everything else seems to work. I can turn the devices on and off in Zigbee2mqtt and I can do the same from Node Red (running in another container) with the Zigbee2mqtt plugin.

    Has anyone else seen this problem?

    I found something in GitHub about it but the comments said that it was fixed in the next version but I have a later version than that but it’s still not working.

    Rishi Sunak wades into debate over trans people, declaring no one can change sex

    All the news on his speech seems to be about HS2 but I think that this is important too.
