Isn’t the concern that “Those that need them still” won’t get them? There is a HUGE amount of unclaimed benefits in this country. Many old people can’t cope with the level of tech you need to apply (you can’t just phone up or pop into a benefits centre in most parts of uk).

Do we, though? Macron’s reaction seems to go too far the other way. Surely a “Congratulations on your reelection, Mr President and we look forward to working with you in the interests of both our countries” would be sufficient.

My first two heads were both involved in fraud. This was in the early days of grant maintained schools. The first one set up a printing business within the school and staff could only do photocopying etc through the printers. He was taking home a nice cut of the “profits”. The second one defrauded the school for about a million pounds in a scam where her husband sold the school computer equipment, got a stupid deputy to sign for empty boxes and then claimed that the computers had been supplied. That head went on the run to Spain. Eventully went to the High Court and she got away with it. We were told by local LEA that if we leaked anything to the press we would be prosecuted.

Also have to mention the heads who pretend you aren’t there when you try to talk to them in a corridor. I was once told never to approach one head because “Kings only talk to other kings!”

Regular state school. I worked in another where the executive head hired a private investigator to keep an eye on staff who were on longer-term illnesses and do “background checks”.

It works fine. Not many videos there - but it’s early days. It doesn’t seem to be a desktop app. Works through the Loops app.

Really awful. Starmer could congratulate Trump without indulging him.

Worked in a school where the head refused to employ any of the candidates who turned up for interview because none of them wore a poppy (and one of them wore tan-coloured shoes that hadn’t been polished, too!) Some of the candidates were perfectly suitable and the school needed to fill the post to help reduce workload on the rest of us.

Labour: like the Tories but better at it.

Canvases as a visual index/MOC to collect notes on a specific topic. That’s my main use.

I have used them as a cork board for notes when planning writing (much like Scrivener). I’ve even got templates that have images of an index card to type over.

By now companies must know that games based on an IP are almost always trash. Usually the IP-games that are supposedly great turn out to have have average gameplay and marketed hard with advertising spends larger than the development costs ( cough I'm looking at you Spider-Man).

How big does a movement need to be to describe itself as “mass”?

I’m not sure that any party that wants to participate in the Westmister House of Distraction is anything other than riddled with state security services operatives.

Who actually cares which party wins which seat? Surely the idea that voting for any of these chancers will make any meaningful difference has been long given up? Regardless of whomever has more seats in Westminster, their agenda is to continue the reversal of post-WW2 social gains.

Pinry - HELP! (feddit.uk)

Can anyone help me with Pinry?

I've run Pinry in a Docker container on a Synology NAS for a couple of years and it's always worked great with no problem... up until I upgrades DSM to 7.2.

Pinry still works fine if I upload saved images. If I try to use the Firefox extension or paste in the url it does nothing. It must be a permissions issue that changed when I upgraded the DSM. I've tinkered with all sorts of setting to no avail and the logs say nothing. I've done the obvious searches online to see if I can find a solution.

Does anyone who hosts Pinry know what the problem is? (It's bound to be REALLY obvious). Thanks in advance.
