This is a link post HMG: Your Freedom
Another governement website where they can pretend to listen to your views.

Basicly it allows you to suggest and vote on laws you want to see removed. I highly doubt that anyone in power is goign to pay any attention what so ever to this but we could have some fun abusing it.

Have some fun.

This is a normal post Hugely conflicted
The illiberalism of the previous government was its most disappointing aspect (that and pre-emptive strikes on sovereign nations).

On the face of it this is a good idea but deep down I know it's turkeys voting for christmas.

Take the smoking ban: the liberal in me says wtf are the govt doing there? But then my clothes don't reek after a night out any more.

However, if we collectivise our abuse of this site I'm up for mischief.

This is a normal post I don't think that there's anything illiberal about the smoking ban.
It isn't actually a smoking ban, after all: it's more of an inflicting-your-smoke-on-others ban, and that looks wholly socially liberal.

My worry about this is that it'll be hijacked by a bunch of chinless right-wing economic liberals, libertarians, and the Taxpayers Alliance.

This is a normal post
yes wholly socially liberal.lets wreck the social lives of millions of tax payers so some miserable dirty self righteous arses can go another day without washing or changing their clothes.
Nevermind people getting jailed, shot, raped and stabbed to death over this insane ban, or pensioners wasting away alone at home instead of spending their last days with their mates at social clubs and bingo halls.You're saving a small fortune in soap and laundry bills.
Its illiberal because business owners aren't being given a choice.Its their pub/club.Staff it with smokers and cater to smokers and rational non-smokers who take regular showers.They won't give us that choice because they know the smoking pubs will be heaving and your sterile gastro pub will be virtually empty until they allow smokers back.
Notice they haven't just banned tobacco.No - us smokers are handy cash cows.We pay more in taxes than we take out of the kitty.It's the lettuce-munching tea-total do-nothing-risky shits that are a burden on the state.
And theres nothing deadly in secondhand smoke.Its a pack of lies and propaganda.
A gay mate of mine made a fine point.If they banned gays because their stinky cockbreath had been proven to give people AIDS using the same twisted science thats been used to demonise smokers,there'd be fucking uproar from the likes of stonewall.
I think its only a matter of time before we get the choice of smoking pubs.The ban is being flouted all over Germany apparently.

This is a normal post I tried to have myself moved from the electoral register.
The person on the other end of the phone was baffled. "Why?"
"Well, I've got no real desire to vote, so there's little point."
"Errr..."
"Look, I'm not trying to avoid council tax or anything. I would just like to have my name removed from the electoral register."

Turns out you're not allowed to be removed. So all those campaigns saying that you have to register to keep your right to vote ought to be saying that you have to register to stay on the right side of the law, irrespective of your desire to vote.

This is a normal post My experience has been that on the odd occasion that my kids see something
untoward on th Internet, they usually find it hilarious and it's me that is confused and scared. There may be things out there that I don't want my kids to see, bu I think this foolish notion that the kids don't want to see gross things is unhelpful. Frankly, kids like seeing disgusting things and will try to see them at every available opportunity, so asking them to help us to stop them is just silly. It's the same logic that says that drug users are victims.

This is a normal post protecting your kids from the internet.
1) Setup an account for them on the computer
2) Setup parental control to help protect them from some things they might see (it wont protect from everything but it;s soemthing)
3) Deny them the right to install things o nthe computer. If they want to install anything they have to go through you. This should stop them isntalling alot of malware.
4) Remind them that things on the internet aren;t always real. Use b3ta as source examples of what people can do with photoshop and other such programs.
5) Do your best to find out if they've met any new friends online by talkign to them, going behind their backs could damage the trust you have with them.

This is a normal post My biggest disappointment at the moment
is not having a job that pays enough to be able to get a mortgage. The only reason I want a mortgage is so that I can get my own place. The only reason why I want my own place is so that I can get a dog. I miss my dogs so much. They cheered me up every day and were so much better than my cat. A dog is probably one of the best and most caring friends you can ever have. (I sound like a bit of a lonely twat now. It's probably true as well!)

This is a normal post I see a lot of homeless people that have dogs.
So see, there's stiill hope for you ;)

Mixing cats/dogs is not always a good idea. The dogs need a clear leader of the pack and, since that is the cat, they won't respect you as much.

This is a normal post Our cat was a stray who just made her home in our home
She was very friendly, but pretty much just slept and ate at home. She wasn't a very sociable creature, so never really met the dogs. If they were in the room, she would just walk out so their paths never really crossed.

Good point on the homeless front though! I'm not sure what's better, a roof or a dog?! I guess it depends on the predominant weather in the country of habitation and the availability of food...

This is a normal post Both are tricky.
It's difficult to play 'fetch' with a roof, but then it's difficult to affix an enormous telly aerial to a dog.

This is a normal post I understand completely
Dogs are fantastic animals and shouldnt really be compared to cats they are a different type of pet completely.

Have you considered dog walking for a charity? I go a long to my local dog home and walk them and play with them. The dogs really appreciate it and they never get enough attention in these places.

A friend of mine when I was a child had a dog that would always howl along with the Eastenders theme tune. This seems like a decent explanation for that too.

that's what that'll make if you run to anything the second it makes a noise.

A member of my family keeps Irish Wolfhounds and she made a mistake of encouraging her first one to howl, it would do it every night, about 5-6 times a night, waking EVERYONE up, including the neighbours, just so she would run down the stairs and give it some attention (typically a foot up the arse).

This is a link post Just gotta hope there's few of you out there more generous than bankers!! I made this!
I work for a bank and organised and took part in a charity bike ride with my company and another bank in the local area. Sadly, despite this being sent out to several hundred people, only 3 people donated from my company.

Here's a bit of experimental footage I took with a camcorder and a home made bracket to mount it on the handlebars. Watermark is there because I haven't decided about buying the software yet.

I don't mind if you don't, but if you feel like it, please give your contributions via the following just giving site. It's a great cause for a charity that does great work in my local area:

P.S. Stop watching when the video stops. I failed to crop the audio so it just keeps running. Also, if there's any dodgy English/grammar, it's cos I'm drunk and struggling with typing!!

not on their chosen profession. Bankers = evil blah.

This is a normal post good point
I raised over £40k, half of which was down to the bank's policy of matched giving, over about three years of marathons. £100 was from a guy who just stopped me on the street to see why I was carrying a rhinocerous head.

Not to take the previous poster's aggressive stance (making a change round here) but it's not the industry, it's the people.

This is a normal post Thanks.
What are you trying to say here? I get on very well with people on my current team and keep in touch with people from teams I have worked on in the past. I even get invited out on team nights out for teams I have not worked on for the last 3 years. Am I an antisocial reject? That's your opinion.

I don't know why my event failed to get the support that previous events have. It could be because there have been a lot of them recently and people are a little fed up with dropping change into envelopes. I don't know.

What do you think I can do in terms of being a 'banker'?! I have a job. I'm lucky. I work in IT. Am I a wanker because I'm a banker?! Did I cause the credit crunch?! I'm am right down at the bottom of the rung on this one. I thought that since this a good charity it deserves a bit more support, so I thought I'd post it here on the off-chance that maybe one or two of you might donate a couple of quid. Sorry if that was a mistake. I think your assumption about me and my friends makes you a cunt.

This is a normal post He wasn't saying that bankers are evil
The addition of "blah" implies that the statement "bankers = evil" was sarcasm. He was challenging your original assertion that there was a link between the poor donations for your event and the fact that the people in question were bankers. He was saying that the fact that they are bankers is neither here nore there.

Generally, though, IT people in large organisations of any sort are not well liked.

That last post has really annoyed me, and is possibly the first time that an internet post has really got under my skin to the point where it actually upsets me a bit. This is also the first time since becoming a member of B3TA that I have put somebody on ignore!

Edit: I'll ignore him tomorrow! Ignoring tonight means I can't see any reaction from nice folk out there!

This is a normal post I suspect that people at work
donate depending on how much they think other people are donating. I don't think anyone is going to go out of their way to donate without being pestered and seeing other people donating first.

Let's face it, people at work are usually colleagues, not friends, so I suspect popularity doesn't have that much to do with it.
 (I helped save b3ta! monkeon schmonkeon, Wed 30 Jun 2010, 23:51, Reply)
This is a normal post I think you're right
The mistake here was not going with the form that goes around the team with people having to commit before passing on to the next person. People had a layer of anonymity with the online donation site, but you can't really do a retrospective sponsorship form. Technology is not necessarily the way forward for work based charity!!

This is a normal post Sometimes I get peeved with
the shear number of charitable requests at work. I work in a huge department 250 staff, plus another 200 or so people who come in for 1 day a week, so there's normally several charity things going on at any one time - yet if you fail to pay up people look at you like you're some scrooge type.

I don't mind the ones like this so much, but the ones that are "pay up for me to have a free holiday cycling the great wall of china or walking in Nepal" etc REALLY piss me off - esp when theres a couple of people at work who do this every year. A free holiday and only a small amount actually goes to the cause...

rant over. sorry.

This is a normal post Totally agree
hence the non aggressive nature of the original post. I put it up for two reasons. First because it's the first time I've played around with the new camera and it's home-bodged bracket, and second on the off-chance that somebody might feel inclined to donate. I don't really mind if anyone does or doesn't (although I'm grateful if they do!!) it was just a bit of fun for a good cause and a nice day out for all involved, and it didn't cost anyone (other than me) a penny.

This is a normal post it's the bystander effect or social loafing
if someone is lying in the street, clearly in trouble, yet there are hundreds of other people around walking by, the majority will walk on by and not offer help...

therefore, if you send an email to 300 people, the majority will ignore it, assuming that the others will put in some money... If you send the email to 10 people, a higher percentage of that group will donate.

if you did it like this and they still didn't donate, they're probably just tight bastards.
