I remember hearing a theory that he deliberately orders a mostly flavourless cocktail with very basic and common ingredients because it would make it easier to detect if someone had spiked his drink with something.

Standard, off the shelf ingredients means you can’t just spike the whole bottle ahead of time as each ingredient is pretty standard.

One of my school friends made some extra money during 6th form by offering to sew new, bigger pockets in various girls clothing. On average she did about 5 pairs of jeans a week at about £15 per pair. She went on to do fashion design at uni and now runs her own small business and despite branching out to do so much more stuff one of the services she kept doing was pocket replacements and extensions.

I’m sorry dude but in the gentlest way possible, you’re relying on conspiracy theories to avoid confronting reality and justify your beliefs. It’s exactly the same as what q-anon and trump nutters do. I realise that its a coping mechanism to help you deal with the state of things but you can’t change anything for the better if you can’t engage with reality.

I know shit feels hopeless now but I promise there’s things you can do now that will genuinely improve life for yourself and the people you care about. Join communities, volunteer for causes you believe in, get involved in protests, and try and form those social bonds that help break people away from conservative and maga centric thinking. If you think about it, regardless of whether what you believe is true or not, these are still things that will improve life for people who are suffering now.

Same here except I have the ultimate pro wireless v1 its been easily the best controller I’ve ever owned, the one downside for me is that I’m not a huge fan of non-removable batteries but considering how good the rest of the controller is, I’ll give it a concession on that. Additionally I personally prefer snappy tactile D pads over the mushy membrane one they went for but again, it’s something I don’t mind terribly, just personal preferance.

I actually recommended an 8bitdo wired controller to a colleague because they had bought 3 turtle beach Xbox controllers in the last year because each ended up with severe stick drift and customer support shafted them. So far as I know he’s used it non-stop for about a year and a half now with zero problems and he told me before how good a controller it is.

I asked one of my mates who’s a historian and he said yes. Viva la revolution

Not sure really, but probably best to go an remove all your money now just in case! I bet hundreds of people are doing the same thing! /s

As with many types of license, they usually only get checked when you’re caught misbehaving.

If you’re caught not picking up your dogs poo, you’re asked “have you got a licence for that dog”. At which point, if you say no, then you get another charge or two slapped on as well. If you lie and say yes you can get yet another charge slapped on for lying to law enforcement.

Its basically another layer of incentive to follow the law and get a license or the penalties may be higher as a result.

Genuinely thought that said “anachronism” and was ready to go on a tirade about how cool cloaks are and how they should make a comeback

Same here honestly! Its not like I was going to use the body again. Worm food or cat food, its all alright by me!

Hot Swapping batteries is actually surprisingly good for the life of the battery if done well.

Rapid charging the battery does do permenant damage over time especially if you fast charge every time. Whereas if you can hot swap a battery and have a suitable stockpile of them you can trickle charge the battery over a couple of hours instead of 30 mins and prolong the overall lifespan of the battery. Even slowing down the charge rate to 1 hour reduces wear on the battery significantly. Plus, without time pressure from a customer, more time could be taken to replace damaged cells or blocks in a battery so that one pack will more effectively use the whole battery up instead of throwing away perfectly good cells.

Companies don’t need to make infinite money. That’s just a weird incentive that modern corporations seem to be chasing and burning everything down around them to achieve.

You jest but that’s literally already a thing that exists and you can buy it!

Again, there already is an easy way out. All that would change is the manner in which is happens and whether it happens professionally or not.

Because Russia has been so good at only hitting military facilities in Ukraine so far.

Gravity surely?

Because they’ve successfully been conned into thinking that what’s in the best interests of the rich is in their own best interests too.

I don’t know why I clicked that to find out what happens. I have an ad blocker lol.

That sounds like a warning to others lol. Don’t inbreed or we’ll feed you to the lions
