My car has front and rear parking sensors, the car beeps at you when you get close to objects. When the sensors are iced up (the rear ones at least) they think you are very close to something and beep. Not only is there beeping, the brakes are also applied so I cant actually move backwards, and I can't find any way to turn the system off! FFS! Madness. Now worried if driving in snow and the front sensors get covered in snow, will the brakes suddenly come on and I get rear ended?
@JeanPDeliet@Glencoe this is a really common response by supporters of Israel. It's what's called "whataboutism".
It also ignores that on nearly every other case, the international community, our governments, are doing something to try and stop it. But when it comes to Israel, we just give them more guns.

Advice when trying to combat a dog peeing inside is to thoroughly remove the smell. Otherwise, the dog will keep going back to the same place.
The fig tree used to have two figs on, but one fell off so now there is one, hope it ripens. There are more coming but there's no chance of them ripening. It's a year one tree so maybe better luck next year.
@MaggieCi I'm no expert, first season with the tree, but they are so small at the moments and the other one has taken so long to ripen, I'm not seeing it happen. Weirdly, the first thing to appear this year was the two figs, before it had any leaves at all.
If I had a website trying to flog stuff to the public, I really wouldn't have a cookies pop up which potential clients can't get past without choosing which cookies they will or will not accept. As a potential client of someone with such a website, I've exercised my choice and gone somewhere else.
@Glencoe Also annoying are those sites which keep popping up a ‘subscribed to our newsletter’ window over the top of the payment you are trying to complete. Dear me, do these developers never even test sites?? 😳🙄
Was at the vet in Coal today, went for a walk along the beach. There are two wrecked ships on the shore, an old fishing vessel and this sailing boat. Looks like she was built for speed.
Dear holiday makers. Have you any idea how annoying it is to follow someone dawdling along the road for mile after mile, then when a good overtaking opportunity occurs, they put the pedal to the metal and shoot off making overtaking at best difficult, if not impossible, then slow down to dawdle speed again when the opportunity is gone? Some of us are going places, have stuff to do and limited time to do it. Enjoy the scenery by all means, but please do let following traffic pass. Don't be a dick
It appears that the BrewDog Lost Forest has in fact been largely lost. To date Scottish Forestry had paid BrewDog £690,986.90 for planting, but seemingly large numbers of the planted trees are now dead.
Media folks. An 'election' where all credible opposition is either dead or in jail, where armed men are in the polling booth with voters looking at how they vote, isn't an election. Please cease playing Putin's game, don't call it an election, it isn't. Call it a fake election, call it a corrupt election, but never ever just 'election'. Call it out every time.
So, the French And Spanish companies building the wind farm, and who the profits will go to, with equipment manufactured in China and UAE are flogging half the output to probably power Amazons' data centres, which as we all know are essential for the survival of civilisation (sic). But it's ok because there will be 70 jobs in Scotland. When will we ever learn that flogging off your natural resources for peanuts is a really really awful plan.
@Glencoe as we progress through early independence processes there will be "choppy waters" to navigate as we negotiate our way out of all the UK deals that sold off our assets ,but it will be done we must hold the line-independence now 😂💙🏴
It now appears the Post Office accounting system called Capture before the Horizon system, was also likely faulty and could cause shortfalls. My dad was a sub-postmaster during that period and did suffer significant shortfalls which he had to make up. I know he didn't take it. It had a very significant effect on his mental health and pretty much ruined his later years. #PostOfficeScandal
