What stops house building given Canada is so big? In the UK, its all green "farmland" (mostly sheep) that prevents land being used for housing.

Anyway UK population will overtake Germany in the next decade or two if immigration to UK continues like it has past 12 months and Germany doesn't open for mass immigration.

Many Brits against Brexit and who want to rejoin EU disagree and believe EU wants UK back so much it'll offer the same terms as before.

Funny you say that because I know someone who picked Manchester after moving to UK from HK because he and his dad support Manchester United. He moved along with his brother, sister and retired parents, all under the HK visa. They are looking to buy two homes in Manc with their in savings.

The newspapers are suggesting the new migrant stats to be published soon by Home Office for past 12 months will show extremely high numbers from both Hong Kong and Ukraine. To be honest I'm surprised people from Hong Kong didn't pick Australia instead of UK given it's better weather and bigger homes/roads compared to cramped England.

ARM delisted in 2016 because they were bought by SoftBank and became private company. The fact they (and the others listing in US) are not going to EU tells you a lot, they view it lower than London.

Helmand/Afghanistan was an insurgency war. IEDs, bombs under the road, shoot and scoot. The Taliban would run rather than take on NATO troops head-on. The US also failed, doesn't mean the US cannot handle a conventional war because of Afghanistan.

UK employers refused to increase salaries because they had unlimited supply of cheap labour from Eastern Europe, they treated them like shit but they still came and worked for them. Well the end result is those same working class British who they refused to pay more eventually voted Brexit. Now the UK employers are super desperate for staff because there is no more cheap labour for them to take advantage off. And wages are rising faster because the workers are in charge now.

The UK hasn't passed EU laws since Brexit was done Jan 2021 like they did when they were a member. It's just a free trade agreement now. It is up to UK exporters to provide proof of compliance just like Canadian exporters to EU. 42% of total UK exports is to EU, even pre-Brexit it was below 50%.

In 2015 it was still just 44% of total UK exports to EU: https://www.ons.gov.uk/businessindustryandtrade/internationa...

I see the tiny little insignificant UK is actually 20% of the whole EU, who boast of having a 440 million population.

An example of how oblivious drivers on phones are is this:

I parked (where I could not be seen by the van) to warn oncoming drivers of mobile speed van 50 metres ahead over brow of hill.

While nearly all made eye contact with me and speeders instantly slammed the brakes, two drivers on phones (both women with kids), despite me flashing my headlamps AND putting my hand out of my car and waving at them, they still did not look at me or put down the phone.

This was after the penalty was doubled to 6 points.

(And yes I know its not legal for me to warn drivers of speed traps like this)

The US certainly needs UK help on Diego Garcia, which the UK is negotiating to hand over back to Mauritius.

So 1.4 will be full Wayland support?

I was searching what FLTK by default looks like on Windows 10, with all its widgets, but couldn't find a screenshot.
