Thank you for that, most interesting.

It's odd given their usually quite liberal stance... I wonder if there some old conservatism creeping in with the Tories being in power for so long..?

The BBC has a history of being antitrans?

That's quite a revelation to me, it has more of a reputation of being extremely liberal and indeed any even remotely right winger here usually whinges and moans about how "woke" it is 🤷🏻‍♂️

Do you know what in particular triggered their stance that they believed the BBC anti-trans?

I don't disagree it's anything earth shattering but it does make their statement open to being disputed... I guess my other concern would be if it's a slippery slope but there's no evidence of that with Larian (so far).

"Enjoy the game to its fullest without any additional costs" - I know Larian are one of the good guys in all this but the deluxe DLC does come with in-game stuff that is otherwise unobtainable, so their statement isn't 100% accurate

Do you use it on mobile? Have you had any success configuring it as default search on mobile because I gave up (iPhone)

Have a look at uBlacklist it removes a lot of the SEO rubbish for me

Make sure you at least have a plumbed toilet if you're going to be eating raw meat and berries

Depends, uk licensing laws are complex... for example a pub with an area set aside for serving a substantive meal may be permitted children in those areas only if they are eating with adults.

A restaurant with a pub/bar attached, even if completely openly attached so looks exactly the same as the pub example above, will almost certainly be permitted to serve children food without an adult present (at least legally, some may have policies against that).

And those are the easiest examples.

This feels so Alan Partridge

Successfully or..?

He was even better than that - not many people realised he purposely allowed free posting from Apollo to Reddit groups related to depression, suicide, addiction etc.

Normally you had to pay for Pro sub in Apollo to be able to post, but he didn't want to create any barriers for people seeking help so allowed the free app to post to those subs.
