Also applies to floodplains.

Wonder how advanced it is. Maybe you could get away with avocado as loose potatoes as the shape is closer.

The point that op is rose tinting the past when all that’s happened is we’ve moved from one evil megacorp dominating the internet to another?

Ahh. So a newbie. There was a short time which was as you described, which you seem to have started your internet journey during. Before then it was IE and plugins otherwise loads of sites wouldn’t work right, after that is now with everything claiming it needs chrome.

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

Lol you clearly weren’t actually using the internet years ago. If you didn’t have Microsoft internet explorer and flash plugin loads of sites wouldn’t work.

That’s a terrible reference. Do they mean the first quarto, second quatro or first folio?

We had a referendum and people voted to keep the scam.

True, but given the right government policy the provision of high quality, high speed, highly affordable public transport very much can be changed.

It’s criminal that Master and Commander never had more films.

Jesus. Please tell me that’s an extremely rare result. Because that is genuinely fucking terrifying.

Well that sent me down a random Wikipedia dive.

In the United Kingdom, stop signs may only be placed at junctions with tramways or sites with severely restricted visibility.[30] Until 2016, each stop sign had to be individually approved by the Secretary of State for Transport.[31][32] This requirement was removed by the 2016 amendments to the Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions;[33][34] the responsibility for approving stop signs now lies with local authorities

I remember Tom Scott did a video about a really dangerous junction with one a few years ago. The road layout there has now been fixed so it’s not needed.

I’ve never seen one in the wild though.

Same in the UK. But here most signs are ‘give way’ so there can be confusion when there’s an actual stop sign.
