If my train costs more than it would to drive, park, and pay congestion charges, there is something very wrong with the system.

I could be wrong but I don't think you've accounted for the change in rate over time. 1 euro was about 4 lira in 2017 so 2017 was more like 50c. Today 1 euro is about 35 lira so it's about 6 to 7 euros at 220 lira. Crazy when you think that's about the price of a kebab in in euro/UK but compare income here to Turkey.

The article focuses on 70+ year olds who have lived in another country for over 50% of their lives. If you have not lived in the UK for 40 or 50 years, and you intend to continue not living in the UK, then please get back in your box. 🙏

More companies price gouge as we get closer to the point when they will be unable to blame higher interest rates and inflation

I saw something the other day that looked at how rockstar anti piracy measures were breaking legitimate games bought on steam. Resonated with me as I bought manhunt to play on steam deck but it crashes at the end of the first level. So this would suggest that not only have rockstar implemented something that breaks games bought through legitimate avenues, but that those same games might be the result of code they "stole" for want of a better word.

I played 4 hours last night and I really am enjoying the game. There are a few issues but I think they things that could be improved via patches. For the most part it's QOL things. I fixed the no ultra wide support with a hex editor but by far my biggest gripe is movement speeds. Walking is way too slow. Jogging is a little slow but not available if using kb&m. Run and sprint feel OK (sprint is maybe too fast). Using kb&m feels really bad. You go from very slow walking to a full run which ruins the immersion for me. Using controller is better but I prefer kb&m for combat. Even with controller though, the difference between walk, jog, run and sprint feels weird as they don't blend together. I would switch between kb&m and controller but there's not a separate setting for inverting Y for controller vs. Kb&m, which for me is a problem as I invert y on controller so switching between the two requires a change of that setting as well. For now I'm sticking with kb&m and just putting up with the fact that I feel like I'm running around like a crazy person all the time. Oh, and the fact that walk is slower for your character than it is for NPC's is so annoying. Allowing that to happen should exclude you being able to make video games! Whoever is responsible for that needs to do better.

I have a first gen ipad air and we use it as "the music ipad" for my kids. If you can't get Spotify running, then you could fill it with mp3s and use it that way. If you don't have kids, you could have it hooked to a bluetooth speaker in the kitchen where it could double up as a e-cookbook or notepad for shopping lists which could then easily be emailed to yourself for when you go out to do a shop

This made my stomach turn so I wanted to see if I could find out about the judge in the 2nd link who gave the order. It appears he changed the decision and this was a bit of an admin error (although not sure on the details).
