We put our old furniture/appliances out, and when the scrap man passes they take it away for free (or you can call the council and they’ll take it away for free also).

I’ve got a couch out in my garden at the moment, council’s taking it to the tip on Monday.

…Where are we supposed to leave it for pickup, on the roof?

Yeah that’s a dick move, it’s so rare that we get snow, I enjoy looking out of the window and seeing it.

Not to mention that it’s taboo over here to enter someone else’s garden without good reason, this bloke’s asking for it though, where’s his hedge? Not even a fence? Come on. But I digress.

Thing is, if they’d just asked I bet he’d have said sure, and been happy to help, but it’s people stepping over the line and going outside of the basic social contact we have in our communities, that’s what pisses ya off.

Dude out there living his best life, taking care of his health and enjoying logging his stats so he can see his progress,

…Boomer CEO sees somebody that doesn’t live like he did in the 70s and assumes they’ve lost track of what matters 🤦‍♀️

What a judgy comic strip :-/

One day when you’re an adult, you’ll look back at the childish patronising insults you threw at millions of women, men and children, none of whom you know or have any right to judge, in order to feel a sense of smug superiority for a few moments on the Internet.

Interesting, here in the UK they sell it at a discount, which greatly helps us poorer people afford food.

Ironically if it’s all donated to food banks instead, I’d never see it and would struggle more - I may be poor but I can afford food so I don’t want to take away from what others might need more than me.

The whole system is sadly broken anyway, so much food, yet so many hungry :-(

So long as it’s affordable. I’m not paying more than £250 for a mobile phone, even that’s on the high end of what I can justify for a phone.

I’m stuck using Chinese brands if I want a good, affordable phone, but they have so many intentional software issues.

Nothing’s perfect, but if I could get a better phone that doesn’t lock down stuff (it’s my phone after all, I’m in charge of my own life), and if it were at an affordable price point - unlike these crazies that think £1000 is a reasonable price for a phone (!!!), I’d jump on it <3

Good.

I’d rather things were done at a true national level, holistically with many other things, bringing in the systemic change we so desperately need to solve homelessness and beyond, but I suppose life has taught me that that will never happen.

So, if my city can at least do one small thing to help one small group for a few years, good.

Here’s looking at you, Odo

Haha, funny you should say that, I’ve been linking this to people but taking the tracking portion out of the URL as I always do, I think that’s pretty common amongst us lot :-D

I’d say oopsie, but I dunno, articles like these should probably be free without needing special URL parameters. Not everything of course, but vital public safety announcements like this.

I don’t have the expertise to answer the question, but I’m sad that so many answers here are jokes, or five word answers that aren’t at all helpful :-(

Was really interested in this and hoped there’d be some knowledgeable people out there to educate us on this stuff!

What was Wenger thinking, sending Walcott on that early?

United won 1-0 I think

Laws exist outside of that country.

Pity it’s not radish season yet, I grow loads of them, bloody love radishes.

Will have to try to remember this!

Hasn’t been for years now. I appreciate the extra oomph and definitely the extra RAM, but so many projects need a Pi3 level of oomph and price point.

They don’t make those any more, and the new ones are too expensive, so just can’t do those projects any more.

Or just cronch em!

Judging people based on the video games they enjoy? Ok.

You’re being downvoted, but honestly, who can really say either way.

During war, we should expect everything officially stated by both sides to be propaganda. Sometimes it’s true, sometimes exaggerated, sometimes a lie, either to deceive the enemy, or others.

I want to believe the positive statistics of course, but I take it all with a grain of salt.

Even a good, moral leader would be stupid to always tell the unvarnished truth during wartime.

Death to America

I dunno man, all other things aside (I have no opinion on specific Lemmy instances at all), when you’re quoting Osama Bin Laden as part of your own beliefs or opinion, that’s probably not cool beans, you know?

Knives are tools! You know whose father was a toolmaker?
