Another quality bit of UX there from the Kindle - a popup giving me a tutorial for how to read books on a Kindle.

Handy, really, given I might have forgotten since the last time I used one in [checks notes] a little over 12 hours ago.

Or at any point in the 15 years since I bought a Kindle 3.

“Corbyn denies endorsing ex-Tories – but it’s still an almighty mess”

“On Thursday 2 April, a leaflet emerged featuring three ex-Tory councillors who claimed to be ‘endorsed’ by [Your Party leader] Jeremy Corbyn. Since then, Your Party and Corbyn have denied endorsing these men. Instead, the situation seems to be that they recently joined the Walsall Community Independents group which Corbyn has voiced support for”

Corbyn denies endorsing ex-Tories - but it's still an almighty mess

We're back once again with another uncontroversial take on Your Party and the ex-Tory councillors who claim Corbyn endorsed them

Turns out that Rocket League has a hard numerical cap on how many players you can block. Which means I'm now stuck not being able to actually block any more toxic players because I've been diligent about blocking toxic players. Absolute shambles.

(Measuring the GUI for the blocked players pane suggests you can only block ~540 players: pane shows 12 players, scrollbar is ~70px, gutter is ~430px, moving by one set of 12 players is 8px. Which probably makes it 512 players for the power-of-2 convenience?)

Where the f**ck are all the trams from Princes St to Newhaven? Gave up after 30 mins watching the arrival times tick down but nothing arrived each time. No info on the stop signs indicating any problems.

Bloody freezing now & walking Leithwards hoping to pick up a bus on the way.
