UKpol, Trans rights. 

So, the current PM wants to lower the voting age to 16. Which is great, defintiely in support of that.

A 16 year old can, currently, also:
- Drink wine, beer or cider with a meal in a restaurant.
- Legally have consensual sex.
- Get married with parent’s permission.
- Get a licence to drive a moped.
- Claim benefits.
- Open a bank account.
- Get a full-time job.
- Join the Army.
- Choose to leave fulltime school education.
- Choose what they want to study for their future career.
- Get tattoos and piercings.

And yet, apparently, 16 year old isn't old enough to know if they're trans?

@fatedfox I remember that I used Freeserve for a while and then went onto Telewest cable sometime in the early 2000s before moving to Sheffield.

@fatedfox Ahh there I was misremembering and thinking that BT was privatised in the 90s ^^;

@fatedfox @fatedfox Did BT have an ISP service prior to being privatised? It had been by the time I was able to get online!

@fatedfox Honestly I don't think I'd have a problem with a government run telecoms company ala "Great British Railways"

This weekend is the Belgian Grand Prix - a firm favourite on the calendar. The track can be a bit confusing with many different names given to the corners over the years. Here's the most recent names you'll hear during commentary.

Many thanks to Nyte Cheetah for uncovering Turn 18's name.

I don't believe in gatekeeping knowledge, especially not knowledge that forms part of our intangible cultural heritage.

Drystone built some of the very first structures on our planet. As useful now as it was then.

So, here's a beginner's guide.

@mattcen I find it bizarre that a community that finds the importance of radios coming with schematics completely ignores the idea of open source

@fatedfox I had seen this when searching but I've found docker to be pretty confusing/my brain can't parse it well, so had discounted it. I'll keep it in mind though, thank you! :)

@kevin Jeez that website is not easy to navigate but it does look like it'll be one way to go unless there's something simpler, thanks!

Our water boiler doesn't have a way of monitoring the temperature in the hot water tank, so I'm gonna solve that myself with a temperature prob and a small Linux box.

I'd like to take a temperature reading every so often (haven't decided on what frequency yet) and have the results displayed in a graph viewable over http from the comp.

Any suggestions for showing that in the simplest way possible?
