IMO it should be further than that.

Open source software is, more often than not, used as digital infrastructure.

Governments around the world should absolutely be investing in open source software and actively contributing to it.

I voted remain and I'm not joking: push Brexit voters into the ocean.

It'd increase the country's average IQ by at least 10 points and significantly reduce the number of racists and grifters in the country.

(Yes I know not everyone who voted for brexit was racist, but all racists voted for brexit)

Fuck the Sun.

Fuck the Tories.

Fuck London.

How about Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds and the rest of the north secede from England and create Neo Mercia.

Speaking as a British person,

If the problem is our dickheads going over there and ruining the vibe by harassing the locals, sex workers, and pissing everywhere I have a solution:

Turn the whole area into an LGBT area with Gay Bars and Drag Queens and send over a few of our police to coordinate on patrols with the Dutch police.

I'm serious, on a night out on Canal Street in Manchester there is almost no dickheads because:

  1. They stay away from Gay Bars because of their own insecure masculinity even though Gay Clubs have better music.

  2. The Drag Queens, most of whom act as front of house, ticketing, and head floor management DO NOT suffer fools and anyone harassing or being a knob will be ejected them from the premises quickly.

  3. The GM police love working with the Drag Queens who stand outside the clubs trying to convince punters to go inside because they're an active part of keeping the whole area safe by pointing out antisocial behaviour. Also when they don't have a dickhead to deal with, they're having a good chat.

Edit:

Also a belated apology on behalf of my fellow idiot countrymen. Also I'm of the opinion both sex work and recreational marijuana should be legalised and regualted in the UK. Hopefully that would also help with stemming the flow of idiot tourists abroad.

I felt that in my soul. But I stopped getting carded when I acquired that thousand yard stare one gets when life has been shit enough.

Scene from Lower Decks, the ensign bumped into Captain Gomez and dropped some pads.

Mate, you've clearly never had proper shortbread if you're putting it in C tier.

Get your sen up to Scotland and have some nice buttery crumbling shortbread.
