  • As the owner of a 13 Mini; what’s that?

    We didn’t get anything at all from 18.1. There is literally nothing on my phone to tell me that it exists.

    However, I do have it on both of my Macs, and have yet to do anything with it. I’m not in any hurry to bother either.

  • Oh, that’s a shame. I was on the TestFlight for Mammoth right back at the start, when everyone was looking for a decent app because Twitter had just murdered Tweetbot.

    It was a fine app, but Ivory ended up being slightly more fine.

  • If this is British - and it does look like British tapas - then that could well be a Chicago Town frozen mini pizza. They’re…not great, but they are convenient.

  • Not a single Jonathan who has been through the UK school system in the past forty years has gotten away with being asked “Have you got a rubber, Johnny?”

    Not one.

  • I once tried to say “I don’t fuck about” in Italian to my Italian friend. I ran it through DDG and replied to him with something along the lines of “Non cazzetto”.

    He was a little surprised that I’d admitted to him that I don’t fuck, but treated me with sympathy all the same.

  • $28bn is A Lot Of Fucking Money, my dude. Like…a lot.

    At a rate of $20 an hour, it would take a person almost 160,000 years to earn that kind of money.

  • Exactly that. There's sex as an intimate act between loving partners, then there's sex as recreation. The two things aren't necessarily the same. It's why swinging is so popular.

  • Britain is where the Canuckians got that from. Our colonies ranged very far and very wide, and for that we're very sorry.

  • I'm a 44 year old (mostly) straight guy who's at a point where I don't really know why any of that stuff really matters to people.

    I was a teenager in Britain in the '90s when it was ridiculously common to refer to something bad as "gay". So I grew up not homophobic as such, but having definitely equated being gay with negative connotations. But some 15 years ago I started to question my own attitudes, and, helped by a woman I was seeing at the time, I explored the idea of playing gay. I didn't actually do anything, but she thought the idea was as hot as hell.

    Fast forward to now, where I'm married to a different woman who also thinks that guys fucking is hot, and so do I. So it's something that's become an occasional part of our sex life, and it's great.

    Now, I'm not necessarily answering your question, because sex ≠ emotions. To me sex and emotions aren't really linked. One is something to be enjoyed, and the other is something to be shared with an intimate partner. But the point is, if you're a naturally open-minded person then your baseline for who and what you are will be constantly subject to change.

    Are you straight? Are you gay? Are you bi? Are you any of these things? Does it really matter?

    As to your point about being attracted to femininity: I definitely get that. Regardless of how someone identifies, if they're feminine I've got a soft spot for them.

  • Given how much they've shrunk the Mac mini down, the next Apple TV will either be a surprisingly powerful gaming console in its current form factor, or they'll keep its performance roughly equivalent to how it is now but have it in a far smaller form.

    My money would be on the latter. Smaller devices mean more can be shipped for the same cost in less expensive packaging, and that's the Cook Way. They've no real interest in offering 'proper' gaming on ATV, so as long as it can work with 8K signals it'll be powerful enough for what it needs to do.

  • Rule

  • Iggy Pop is looking well.

  • Reaper is available for Linux. I can't vouch for it as I've not used it on there, but I've used it on Mac and it's great. Generally well regarded and is pretty inexpensive.

  • Picture someone who'd hide behind his bigger mates if he was threatened and you'd be closer to the mark.

  • I am so uninformed over the last year

    Being uninformed is ok as long as you pair it with knowing you’re uninformed.

    Our Stupid Monkey Branes aren’t designed to be filled with doom all day long, they’re designed to know a handful of people in our tribe. It’s not healthy the way we chase after trying to know everything about everything in order to satisfy ourselves that we’re informed.

  • If I didn’t already think that Musk is a fucking shithead, him stanning for Tommy fucking Robinson would have sealed it.

    Tommy Fucking Robinson (or Stephen Yaxley-Fucking-Lennon to give him his actual name) is the worst. A racist thug through and through, who, by being banged up, is in the right place.
