    Yeah this is absolutely needed… I grew up in Devon and remember when the bus services were privatised and taken away from the council… For about six months the prices dropped as two different companies competed, then one company won the other company folded and suddenly it was a monopoly… Prices tripled overnight and then over the next few years the number of services declined to the point where it was impossible to live in the village that I did and commute to work by bus

    I actually stopped my subscription to Wired recently because the damn site never recognises me and login does not seem to support autofill or biometrics. Really pissed me off.

    Anyway, the gist of this article is the companies are spending money on building AI and sacking people to save that money

    Much of the North and Wales are still not very diverse Part of what you were experiencing is the fact that you really do stand out.

    Bristol is not so very far away from you, and it’s a very cosmopolitan city… No one there will give a fuck I do assure you.

    Yeah, I did it and grew out of it. Being a teenager really sucks. She’s off to college soon where individuality is celebrated rather than making you a pariah so here’s hoping!

    The economy is no longer a measure of prosperity for regular people (if it ever was) It just indicates the rate at which mega-rich people are able to become richer.
