  • I get what a lot of you guys are saying about Starmer and the Labour government not being as left wing as Corbyn. I would also like someone who would use this majority to implement some really hardcore leftist policies.

    But please can we just take a step back and look at what he wants to do:

    • Massive amounts of NHS funding

    • Nationalised green energy

    • Tax private schools

    • Allow regulators to hit company executives with criminal charges

    • Nationalise the railways

    • Increase the minimum wage to a living wage

    • Free school meals

    I don’t know about you, but that seems at the very least, left of center. Sure, he’s not making drastic sweeping changes right off the bat. But this country needs an era of stability, whilst we make small but consistent steps in the right direction, and that’s what Starmer will give us




  • I’m not sure where you’re going with that? I would argue that yes, it is. As it’s sexual material of a child, with that child’s face on it, explicitly made for the purpose of defaming her. So I would say it sexually abused a child.

    But you could also be taking the stance of “AI trains on adult porn, and is mearly recreating child porn. No child was actually harmed during the process.” Which as I’ve said above, I disagree with, especially in this particular circumstance.

    Apologies if it’s just my reading comprehension being shit



  • FALGSC isn’t going to happen overnight, and work reform is a realistic interim solution.

    Arguing for lower hours and more pay to match the massive increases in productivity we’ve seen over the last 100 years is totally feasible. And a step in the right direction long term.

    FALGSC is currently not feasible, and at this rate automation is only making the rich richer





  • I would get a Galaxy Tab if the E-Ink isn’t vital for you. But otherwise it’s a very capable E-Int tablet, and it running Android means you can do anything on it you can an Android tablet.

    The real killer is the latency though, for most things it’s pretty bad, except in Boox’s own apps where it’s so damn quick it feels like writing on paper.

    I wouldn’t recommend it unless you know it’s exactly what you’re looking for, but if it is what you want then it’s easily best in class


  • I have a Boox Ultra C. It has the same screen, I can confidently say the colours are utter shite for any kind of colour sensitive work or media. However, they’re more than good enough for conveying information, like different coloured lines on a chart.

    The colours also look sharp as fuck, as the grey scale is still used for brightness, and the colour just tints it. Meaning it looks a lot sharper than 150ppi and almost indistinguishable from 300ppi
