    [Misc] Are you pro or anti AI?

    Assuming AI is not used for nefarious purposes which results in some cataclysmic event or events, the major issue is what are humans going to do and how will this be funded. Some sort of centrally funded utopia may emerge where the majority can pursue learning or leisure in some form. A much...

    [Politics] Labour Party meltdown incoming.......

    Ignorance of the law is generally not defense. I remember the changes being announced in the mid 1990's when I was not interested in pensions in any way. Women had many years of enhanced state pension benefits compared to men. They got the benefits earlier and lived longer. I agree that the...

    [Misc] Modern life

    Work was definitely better in the 1980's - 1990's when companies still looked after their staff to some extent. With all the extra technology, how come relative pay and benefits have fallen dramatically in the last 30 years. When I started work at a large insurer we had: Reasonable pay Flex time...

    [Travel] Trains (again), Safety

    There were originally 3 park and rides organised by the club. One was lost and never replaced so presumably that was in the control of the club (to replace the one they lost). Indeed they sometimes do managed to replace it with the one at Pyecombe but never permanently.

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Manchester City *** Official Match Thread ***

    Not sure if this has been mentioned before but anyway, Pep was on the touchline for the whole of the warm ups. This was from when the goalkeepers were warming up (1 hour before kick off) and before the City keepers had actually come out and included a two or three minute conversation with Jason...

    [Politics] The Labour Government

    Sorry I picked those two to exaggerate a point and with no evidence. However, as best as I can determine, roughly half of graduates end up in roles unrelated to their degree. Funds for education are finite. That's a fact. If the government (in other words us) is to fund free university places...

    [Politics] The Labour Government

    Fundamentally we need to educate the right number of people in a range of skills according to the likely future demands of society. It doesn't matter how or by which institution this is achieved. This would likely dramatically reduce the numbers going current style universities as the Media...

    [Albion] EFL / Carabao Cup Fourth Round draw [Liverpool at home]

    That's just referring to the Travel Zone for bus and train I think and not specifically the park and ride sites which are normally charged for on non league games. Having said that, they are leaving it late if they are going to charge in advance for Park and Ride.

    [Albion] Thomas Tuchel **Appointed England Manager 15/10/24**

    Not sure how we and the FA in particular, have arrived at a position where there is no one who is English who is thought to be capable of managing the national team at our national sport. I can't see Spain, Italy, France or Germany going down the same route any time soon. We seem to be stuck in...
