  • Everyone who wants to fly to America has to. Am curious what would happen if I ticked Yes next to "have you ever associated with communists". Do they just kick you out or is there a lengthy interrogation process first?

  • I really wish these feckers would watch Richard J Murphy on YouTube. Very few of our ministers actually seem to understand taxation

  • My kid got into Snake Clash, and the amount of Ads especially of the "watch to win" type are ridiculous. Changed my routers DNS settings just so they could play the game ad free. Sadly, it now means progress is behind a relentless grind, cos you have to manually earn every single upgrade

  • Went to one in Poland a few years ago, and was amazed - firstly - that you could smoke inside there. Second was how well it was handled: the entire ceiling seemed to be extractor fans - could barely see or smell smoke at all.

  • Nah, I almost enjoy that. Rolling tobacco is about tolerable. Actual cigarettes make me sick

  • My mum kept the triangular one I made her for over 20 years. Still quite proud of it.

  • Depends. If there's ever been few enough RSVPs Its not worthy of a party, I'll make a sub-group and suggest something else: cinema trip, pub, or just dinner round mine or something. Yeah, it can feel bad especially when reasons given for not being able to come seem spurious or easily worked around. But then again, sometimes I'm just not in the mood for other people's parties either.

  • Hurry

    Jump
  • A long read, but a good un.

    For anyone interested in lies, misreporting or misrepresentation in the UKs media, the book Newspeak has some excellent examples.

  • If they seized firearms, I think the word "suspected" could be dropped from the headline

  • I'm amazed anyone buys it more than once, with the possible exception of dodgy roadside cafes

  • I was thinking the same, but the mods would have to be pretty spectacular and game-changing. Not sure why I feel this way, other than having played Fallout 3, NV & 4, and The Outer Worlds has probably worn out my desire for open world shooters

  • First of their games I didn't even bother buying.

  • Same, but I find for about 1% of sites I have to load them in chromium. Just works much better

  • Furniture generally, beds specifically

  • It is. Poverty breeds ignorance, and with poverty on the rise...

  • They are confusing, but I can at least find them eventually. I can't remember exactly what it was that the problem was with my last Linux install... I think my secondary monitor was stuck at 640x480 resolution or something, and I couldn't find a way to fix it that didn't involve the command line
