  • Where are these kids getting these ideas?

    That only works if you're already fantastically wealthy.

  • If they even live long enough for that. Most of the hospitals were bombed.

  • Latest figures are that 61,700 have been killed in Gaza since Oct 7th 2023, so a bit of napkin maths suggest we are 3% of the way towards peace in Gaza through the IDF's preferred method.

  • Yeah, it was blocking the networking between them, and after Google failed me for an hour, I realised they all had Windows installers so there wasn't really a lot of point persevering with weird half-broken versions of Linux and Docker.

  • It was a while ago now, bit I think it was trying to get all the individual bits to talk to each other (radarr to prowlarr, etc). I was following some guide and that's where it all fell apart.

  • Yours for just 50,000 Fortnite Funbucks.

  • Exactly, kitchen knives are used because they're readily available.

    Screwdrivers can be used to stab just as effectively.

    However, I have a solution. Make the handles gay rainbow coloured. No self respecting gang member is going to carry a batty knife.

  • We could just have a functioning mental health system.

  • I tried to get the *arr stack running on it at one point, using Docker.

    Do not do this. Just install the Windows apps. Yes, it's a mess. Yes, they work.

  • I blame Emmeline Pankhurst!

    Well, not really.

    "Allowing women to work" turned into "expecting women to work" and is now "two people's wages are required to have a roof over your head".

    House price and rent caps would be marvellous, but no government is brave enough to shatter the teetering mess of economics that is built on it all. It should never have got to this point, and nobody wants to stop it getting worse. We need to bring the cost of housing down. Build more. Prevent prices rising. Hard caps on rent for basic properties. If not enough basic properties exist in an area, mandate they must be built instead of luxury expensive properties. Bring back council houses.

  • I do have a fondness for the Moore era.

    Growing up in the 80s, he was my generation's Bond, and every bank holiday or Boxing Day movie was nearly always one of his.

    The zoom to the scarecrow in Live and Let Die scared the crap out of me as a kid though.

    Rewatching, they're mostly objectively bad. I do have respect for him leaving the role, because being paired with women young enough to be his granddaughter was making him feel icky.

  • I rewatched them all when Amazon added them a few years back.

    There are precious few good Bond films. A lot of them are quite generic, and the later Brosnan movies especially bad. The appearance of Madonna in anything is never a good sign.

    What's most surprising is that there was nearly as big a gap between Spectre and No Time To Die as the entire Brosnan era.

  • No, the name of the character is just Octopussy.

    Presumably she has like eight of them down there. One for every day of the week, and a bonus for special occasions.

  • One of the films (Thunderball maybe) starts with him raping a nurse.

  • The anti-nuclear weapon shield we all agreed not to develop because it nullifies the nuclear deterrent, and makes nuclear war inevitable?

    That shield?

  • "As you can see from these logs, my son viewed ChixWithDix_69 three times on Tuesday, once on Wednesday and two more times on Thursday, and I can see from my smart home lightbulb logs from the bathroom that he viewed them to completion."

  • I don't know how Randy manages it.

    There's so much competition these days, yet somehow his crack team of developers manage to keep him at number one in the list of "Biggest Cunts in Gaming".

    It's honestly impressive. I had no intention of buying this because I think his games are all wank, but fuck him anyway.
