What’s the go on people charging their ev’s at someone’s house. Do you charge them for it or let it slide?

About 5 years ago a guy I worked with would drive his EV into work and charge it up.
He got told to stop it after a few times. Cheeky bugger.

The Algorithm.

I'm at a loss to understand it.

In the last 6 hours my twitter feed has become a huge race war primarily US and Canada vs India. I think it was triggered by Musk bemoaning the lack of engineering talent and being promptly ratioed by posts like "you mean the lack of engineering talent prepared to work 80-90 hour weeks for 9-5 wages" and "no white males can get an interview let alone a job"...

It's just gone haywire. Anybody any ideas? There were NONE of these posts yesterday or even earlier this morning.

Twitter has been cooked for a while now.

A lot of my feed is tweets from people I don't even follow.

Anyone use a smart watch for its ECG function? If so which watch do you use and would you recommend it?

I bought wifey a Withings Scan2 (I think that’s what it's called) she says the ecg function is good.

Thank you!
They’re one of the brands recommended by my cardiologist so I’m looking into them.

Does it do a continuous ecg or is it something you turn on when you want to use it?

Is new years eve and day the only two days a year the term ‘revellers’ is used ?

It continuously monitors heart rate but you have to turn the ecg on and off.

You might need to contact them I had the council send debt collectors to my place because they had an address down wrong in their system.

I get a text from NAB whenever some campaigner called Illias has a credit card payment overdue. I called NAB to have my phone number removed from their account and they can't search their database off a phone number so wouldn't do anything about it.

The first time after you see them in the new year?

Annoying

Just as well I wasn't Hamingja.

"We can't search off a phone number."
"Just how many ****ing Illiases do you have with an overdue card payment? How hard would it be to look them up and see which one (IF THERE IS MORE THAN ONE!) is using that phone number??? STOP BEING A CRETIN!"

I think if I were instructing call centre staff I'd teach that "settle down Karen" is a perfectly acceptable way to diffuse an arseh*le customer, and maybe get them to stop and think about their behaviour for a second.
