Reckon he'll be the guy who buys the NHS next, or will that be some other wealth hoarding pre-corpse?
Glad there's literally nothing more important that our dickhead politician class could be working on 👍
As interesting as it was to see KMag hold up the pack to give space for Hulk, I do wish drivers had to serve their penalties in the race, in a timely manner. With 20 seconds of penalties, his race was basically run. I get that it's teamwork and why he did it etc., but it just feels very very cynical
Microtransactions.
Microtransactions flogged in main menu.
Paying full price for a game to advertise ways I can pay more money for it, sometimes before I've even played a single minute of it.
Well at least now Tate & Lyle's Golden Syrup is more likely to go viral on X or TikTok, which is exactly what I look for when I'm buying golden syrup.
Can we please just not be fucking ripped off for once? Can we have ONE thing that doesn't extort us?
I bloody love a good night out, but I am really not a fan of being rinsed. I know it's London prices and whatever, but the closest pub to me is £6.70 for a pint that isn't Carling, and something nuts like £8 for a double voddy. Couple that with a pack of cigs (£15) and maybe a cheeky little kebab at the end of the night (£10) and you're looking at an easy £75 - £100 for one fun night.
It's rough, because I really do love to socialise. Nowadays I don't drink or smoke for the first half of the year because they're too expensive as habits. If I want to go out in the evening to wind down after work and catch up with friends, I don't want to pay £20 to sit in the pub for an hour or two and then go home - but I can't reasonably afford to do much more than that -- so sod the whole thing.
Since when have the Heinz beans been spelt with a z?? But also this is horrifying and unnerving.
True! Anyway, I don't think enjoying winding up the sticks in the mud on here is any bad thing. Wouldn't worry about it mate, fill your boots.
I don't know about others, but I'm personally not fussed about perks. Plus, building any sort of perk functionality would mean extra workload for the two of you in terms of devving and managing it. But it's definitely not a bad idea, I just know I wouldn't be too bothered either way personally!
Great work maintaining and managing this place! I'm sure we all really appreciate your efforts and your time -- so thank you! I heard some mention of fundraising through OpenCollective, which I'd happily add some cash to - do we have a link?
It's a bit late for some of the victims of this though, isn't it?
I remember hearing about the Horizon scandal a few years ago on some podcast. At the time, obviously, there was no justice for anybody who had been wronged. I believe at least one ex-postmaster committed suicide over it.
Sod the award. Overturning these convictions isn't going to undo the mental and physical toll this has taken on these innocent people. Every one of the executives who covered this up has blood on their hands. The rich never, ever face consequences for anything they do, no matter how cruel.
"We're gonna cut taxes just before a general election! That'll get those dumb animals to vote for us." "But Rishi, you big-eared cunt, where will we find the money to cut those taxes?" "Well, where do you think? Where would it make the most sense to take money from?" "The poor, who have no money!"
Rishi Sunak isn't just malicious, selfish, and the proud owner of two massive fucking ears -- he's also just thoroughly stupid and small. Tiny little Rishi, with the biggest ears in the world. What a total arsehole.
Hey guys! Sorry if this isn't the best place for this but I couldn't really find anywhere else.
I've been working for 6/7 years as a web developer full-time now, and I'm still plagued by one mega frustrating habit. When I'm working on something complex on one page, and it gets completed, I'll fairly often get notified either by the client or my boss a day or two later while they're testing the whole site that there's something broken on another page.
Almost always, it'll be down to the fix I've recently made.
Is there a way to avoid this kind of tunnel vision? I try to keep my code localised as much as possible, avoiding interacting with global scope and, if it's really for one specific thing, tying it down to that page in particular, but short of testing the entire site every time I make any change... is there anything else I can do?
Thanks!
