  • Farage is indistinguishable from current “Labour” Government in that they both support austerity. Which leftist is he trying to woo. He will kick out all the immigrants, then what? Will life improve? No in fact it’ll be worse.

    To pay for it, Farage is promising to end the government’s commitment to net zero, scrap diversity and inclusion schemes and stop housing asylum seekers in hotels or houses of multiple occupancy. Economists said his working was riddled with errors, such as including private sector investment as part of his calculation for how much he could save by ending environmental spending.

    Again, why should he “pay for” tax cuts? Does he fear being ousted like Truss even if he’s elected?

    “Reform’s economic plan means either an explosion in borrowing, pushing up mortgage rates or swingeing cuts in public services like the NHS,” Ashworth said. “Given this is terrain Labour want to fight an election on, Reform have just walked into a trap and Labour strategists will be rubbing their hands with glee.’

    Yes blow up the borrowing. As for mortgage rates, build public housing.

    Of course, none of them are going to do anything. Not even the Greens or SNP or whatever, they are all afraid of the market gods.






  • cotton picking is already mechanized

    U.S. cotton is mechanically harvested using specialized equipment. Seed cotton—fluffy white fiber that includes seeds—is harvested from the field and pressed into round bales or large modules for transport to a gin. During the ginning process, cotton fibers are separated from the seeds, cleaned of foreign material, and pressed into bales of lint. In the United States, a small sample of cotton lint is collected and sent to a USDA classing office where it is graded, thereby providing the quality characteristics on which the cotton is marketed. After ginning, the cotton bales are ready for shipment—usually to a storage warehouse where bales are consolidated before being sent to a mill for further processing into textile and apparel products.

    The use of mechanical harvesting rose significantly during the 1950’s, involving nearly half of the U.S. crop by 1960. Virtually all of the U.S. crop was mechanically harvested by 1970. Mechanization of other field operations progressed rapidly in response to increased labor costs, labor shortages, and the need to perform more timely operations on larger acreages. Chemical weed control, which became common in the 1950’s, has largely replaced hand hoeing, reducing labor requirements for this operation.

    1. Yes its just a remote server that you can torrent on

    2. Yes you get SFTP and shell (non-root/root depending on which provider) access

    3. Yes, you can with Deluge, rTorrent etc which run on seedboxes

    4. Depends on the provider, some seedbox providers don’t support public trackers (or cap upload speeds)

    5. Depends on the provider, major ones like seedhost or ultraseedbox don’t. And yes they can see what you transfer, it’s a shared linux server.

    6. No, you need root access to run torrents over a VPN, not available on shared seedboxes but you can do it on dedicated servers/seedboxes.

    7. I’ve tried seedhost, ultraseedbox, whatbox.ca, hostingby.design. all pretty good.
