Re: Predictions for 15/08/2023
So predictions for 15/8/2033... 1) The process of trying to break bread with the EU following Brexit (something already started) will continue with possible re-joining being a constant theme. Eventually readmission under the same terms we had before (including the opt outs and keeping the pound) wil...

Re: High Street chain collapse sweepstake
Last week's discussion on store closures is already academic, the Putman deal has collapsed.

Re: High Street chain collapse sweepstake
Whilst questions as to the logic as to how some stores survived this initial closure but others didn't will depend on factors maybe not immediately obvious, the particular 5 they've closed in the pointy bit of the country are nevertheless...a bit questionable. Avonmeads, Bristol - unlike much of the...

Re: 🥳🥂 20 years of Metropol 🎂🎈
Never in a million years did I think in 2003 that this place and collection of keyboard warriors would still be here after all these years!
Happy birthday Metropol!

Re: Another High Street Rebrand
Just saw a TV ad for Halifax bank, with what looked like an updated logo on it - it's no longer stripy and has a new font. I normally log in to Bank of Scotland's online banking, but had cause to use the Halifax-skinned version of it today, and see that they're still using the old branding on there...

Re: Public Transport in your particular part of the region
I do get though a commercial private entity that doesn't want to pay Rick to sit behind a window selling five tickets per day, and twiddling thumbs for the rest. Where I do start to question the logic of closing quieter ticket offices is that these stations usually already don't have any dedicated ...

Re: Public Transport in your particular part of the region
One more Tory scorched earth policy before they're booted I agree. There is rather a lot being made of 'replacing ticket offices with ticket machines'. Arguably, ticket machines themselves are fast becoming redundant. I would be interested to know, not just the percentage of tickets bought through ...

Re: Windows 9 is now Windows 10
Second in each category and gaining significantly. Not dead ducks. Not entirely sure what argument you're trying to have Will. Both are indeed second - a cavernously distant second - but that second position is with the world's largest software company spending years pushing them and still they're ...

Re: Windows 9 is now Windows 10
TBH I think they got their dominance taken away, to a large degree. Thats true, but MS still made some pretty bad decisions which would only damage their market share. They left XP users stranded on IE8 5 years before it reached end of life and whilst it still had a big chunk of market share even t...
