The funniest ones are when there’s like 20 shouting at first, but gradually they let it go and move on until there just 2 people left on thread abusing each other .

Only if you are entertained by idea of blood sucking vampires getting their face smashed to a bloody pulp .

I’m here for it.

Yes just a couple of bucks here and there.

Almost BECAUSE they’ve done it for free, I like to chip in .

Take it.

3 of anything for £5 is a good deal in this economy.

Monsters of the road: what should the UK do about SUVs? [The Observer] (www.theguardian.com)

It’s midnight on the edge of Clapham Common in early September. The streets are eerily quiet as a shadowy figure in black shirt, shorts and baseball cap emerges from the common. He is wearing a red face mask, his features, except for some blond locks, hidden from view.

A street filled with VW Golfs instead of Land rovers, still afforded the vast majority of space in town, still given priority at every turn and still transporting one or two people at a time, doesn’t move us much further forwards .

Swapping land rovers for golf’s gets us practically nowhere

Attacking SUV drivers is precisely the wrong way to go about reversing the surrender of the public realm to the automobile and it is exactly the right way to start another immature culture war , alienating a lot of potential allies in the fight to reclaim out streets .

Your skills are irreplaceable, and your body is expendable . Work harder !

Random thought: Windows is largely successful because of Piracy

Windows as a software package would have never been affordable to individuals or local-level orgs in countries like India and Bangladesh (especially in the 2000’s) that are now powerhouses of IT. Same for many SE Asian, Eastern European, African and LatinoAmerican countries as well....

When most people bought their PCs, Windows was already bought and paid for and installed by the vendor, so piracy might not have hit as hard as you think.

If you’re Microsoft, that last thing you want is people having a choice of operating system - either in the store, or when they get home - so you make sure it’s a done deal before the PC is unboxed.

That’s SOP for Microsoft, and what got them into trouble when they were bundling Internet Explorer.

It’s also worth noting, that Linux hasn’t always been a competitive desktop product for the home market.

Yep - I have not found a solution. I used it without issue for years which is very weird.

Well public relations 101 is that you refer to anyone who breaches your security as “highly skilled “

lazy trope.

who hires middle managers ? Execs. Why do they hire them ? to keep a layer between themselves and the workers.

so whenever you think your manager is useless, remember he’s not there for you.

If you got 3 tracks off a hip hop album you’d nailed it.

Yes, there are exceptions, we now call them classics

No joke.

I had about 15 years between 30 and 45 as a zero-exercise desk jockey and it early killed me.

The deterioration was unreal. Took a few years to get back fitness and any kind of core strength.

So, my best advice to young people with desk jobs : Keep up your exercise, even if it’s just a little.

Some of the sports streaming sites have done this too. Any ideas if this will work there ?
