It drives me crazy that the price cap is announced and reported based on a yearly cost for the average consumer. We all get charged based on prices per kWh, why isn’t the cap discussed using the same metric?
It could be reported alongside the yearly igure, in brackets, or a greyed out “*” note. I would write it like “Ofgem have announced the new energy price cap to be 30p per kWh for electricity and 7p per kWh for gas, making an average household bill to amount to £1638 per year” I don’t think that would be confusing.
What I find more frustrating is even after having spent some time searching I couldn’t find the actual kWh figures.
Energy price cap rates 1 April to 30 June 2024 Electricity rates
If you are on a standard variable tariff (default tariff) and pay for your electricity by Direct Debit, you will pay on average 24.50 pence per kilowatt hour (kWh). The daily standing charge is 60.10 pence per day. This is based on the average across England, Scotland and Wales and includes VAT. Gas rates
If you are on a standard variable tariff (default tariff) and pay for your gas by Direct Debit, you will pay on average 6.04 pence per kilowatt hour (kWh). The daily standard charge is 31.43 pence per day. This is based on the average across England, Scotland and Wales and includes VAT.

However this says “average”, and I now understand why they announce it like they do.
Even though different Linux distros are often fairly close in terms of real-life performance and all of them have a clear advantage over Windows in many use cases, we can’t reject the fact that Arch Linux has undoubtedly won the competition. And now I’m so glad to have another reason to proudly say “I use Arch btw”...
I use docker and whilst any included docker compose file is appreciated, I only use them as an example. I’ve always curated my own docker compose to fit my environment.
You should raise 2 GitHub issues for the PNG icon and hostname issue if reproducible.
Right. So how do you differentiate between the 2-letters ones and 3+? Each TLD can have domains requisitiioned by a government, even if its indirect through ICANN.
The US regularly seize domains, even those with foreign registrars. I don’t feel that any tld is immune from this. Sure there are some TLDs more at risk than others, like .af being in control of the Taliban, but I’d also say US controlled TLDs are not the least at risk.
You’re not wrong. I take the view that our history, be it good or bad, is part of who we are as a people. However, I wouldn’t want Britain to abolish the monarchy without good reason, and something that occured in the here and now rather than the past.
There are some replies to this thread that have enlightened me on the power the monarchy holds, which I don’t agree they shoud have. I initially thought the monarchy was a symbolic relic, but it seems it’s not the case.
