A very rare 1965 push button UK telephone, which I converted to work on DTMF.

Almost all UK phones from this era are dial based so it was very hard to find. It is our actual land line phone, not that our landline is ever used. Looks cool though.

This. 10:30 am would not be considered a problem legally where I'm from, you can only make a noise complaint before 7am and after 11pm. People are allowed to enjoy their lives, having neighbours play music during the day is just part of living near other humans.

Do not take petty revenge because that probably is illegal. Be an adult and deal with it.

A colleague of mine cannot allow beans to touch some other foods on their plate. So in an English breakfast for example, they require some kind of bean barrier, such as a sausage, to prevent the beans from touching other elements of food on their plate. I find this weird.

I have open fires in my house, it was built in the 1840s so yes.

This is very common in the uk, though in many places smokeless replacements for coal are legally required.

I'd write a sci-fi story, which explains the fermi paradox. There are thousands of alien races all over the galaxy, but they basically all took one look at humankind and said "fucking hell no, those guys are absolute dicks".

Search for CRUD framework. They are available in many languages.

When network keyboard and mouse sharing works. It is the only thing stopping me going full Wayland.

I'm a dev. Right monitor has my browser, center monitor has my editor, left monitor for everything else (terminal, dev tools, file manager, http client etc)

Nope, synergy, barrier and input leap all break if I use Wayland on either or both machines.
