It passed but they've put a note at the bottom of the bill ' coolant leak - leaking into spark plug area - needs further investigation.   Hope that's not too big a job to fix  :rolleyes:

I don't see how it will work it seems to be well advertised that facial recognition is in an area so criminals will not enter that area.

A disgusting act.  Wen ah wer a lad, we could trust the vast majority of people to be at least relatively honest, and such an act would attract general condemnation.
Unfortunately, these days, many young people would be rolling in laughter.  Total lack of respect.

The main problem with facial recognition and faces being obscured I see is that it removes any potential protection that it is supposed to offer. I don't care if they take my pic to identify me in the least. I think I've still got some vivid masks  :grin:

Quote from: JBR on Today at 11:02:45 AMI agree that facial recognition is likely to be advantageous in crime prevention, especially as I see so many people on the news who are wearing face masks to hide their identity.
Muslim women, of course, might be encouraged not to cover their faces.  That is an ancient religious requirement and I'm sure that many of them only do so following orders from their husband (or even father).
It's not really religious, more cultural. I think face coverings should not be allowed in most scenarios, otherwise facial recognition won't treat everyone the same.
