If you have listened to Electric Avenue, you will understand why Eddie Grant may have been particularly outraged by Trump using it.

Well, there you are again. You said "my questioning of what you claimed". That isn't self reflection. If you aren't asking in bad faith, you need to spend more time on your wording.
The downvotes are because it seemed that you were asking in bad faith. You said "I believe it is true", but now you say (admit) that you were questioning it.
They say "she was being fed the questions". What would be the point of being fed the questions while you are on stage?!
I know that what they really mean is that she was being fed the answers. It just shows exactly how little effort they put into these claims.
The attraction of Linux is precisely that it isn't one of the two 'standards'. Your working environment doesn't get determined by some product manager in a far-away office, who has a set of target users in mind, which he's given fictional names, biographies and mugshots.
Do you think that these might be some of the subpar dwellings that they're talking about: https://southamericabackpacker.com/exploring-slums-of-medellin-colombia/ ?
No, I'm not serious. Of course they don't need roofs or windows or multiple storeys. I'm just joking about that stuff.
The ones in Texas are built of a "high performance polymer concrete", so probably including cement and contributing to climate change. They appear to be single storey as well.
The things they have chosen as demonstrators have holes in the roof! They are not suitable as homes by any reasonable definition. I also think that light and security are necessary for a home. Certainly if you are trying to improve on an existing "subpar dwelling".
If they wanted to demonstrate how they can 3D print homes in rural Colombia, why didn't they print something that would be suitable to be a home in rural Colombia? They only had to load a different model into the printer, right?
Well, quite. They don't appear to have windows or doors either (doorways, yes, but not doors), and they have holes in the roof. Yet the article mentions "homes" about a million times.
It's almost like somebody who didn't have any knowledge of construction had the idea of 3D printing buildings. Probably in the shower.
I notice that they fill the walls with natural fibers by hand (see the photo) - so they must pause the printers at regular intervals and get a ladder to get up to the top parts. So even what we see isn't entirely 3D printed.
No reinforcement? What are the upper floors made of?
Runs debian unstable. Shuts down his machine every year or so.
I mean, it did happen under a Conservative government, and Sunak defended his failure to declare an interest by saying that he wasn't privy to his wife's business interests.
It's quite possible that it's that very scandal that prompted Starmer to seek additional guidance.
