Let me put it in words of one syllable for you, since you’re desperately reaching for any goalpost you can find to shift: I don’t know who you think you’re talking to, but it isn’t anyone who’s replied to you on this thread.

Heavens, it’s lucky we have people as smart as you to put the rest of us in our place. That guy has told you repeatedly, for instance, that he’s not American and views “Trump voter” as an insult. And yet you persist in accusing him of being an American Trump voter, while jerking it to the sound of your own voice - surely the act of someone a cut above the common herd, who’s not a self-important asswipe at all.
Disconcertingly close to the truth tbh.
Yes, it was a chest freezer with one of those little filing cabinet locks. It genuinely never occurred to mum that her eight year old could pick it with her hairpin.
Thank you! What a great explanation. I’m always amazed by how much cooler things are than I expect.

I’ve got to ask, though—how is breathing CO2 pollution? Aren’t we just taking in air, removing the oxygen, and exhaling the waste gases? Isn’t there the same net CO2 afterwards?
Have I misunderstood something as simple as breathing? Please say no.
I figured out one of those locks when I was eight. Used to unlock the freezer with a paperclip
Jesus. I can from time to time, I used to be a regular on /r/canning. The attention to detail re food safety was one of the best things about the sub, as you really can kill yourself and others if you piss about.
So are Irish conditions different from conditions over the sea in Wales, or…?
From what I can tell, the secret is rubber boots.
Wasn’t the issue with this one that money was changing hands in exchange for a printed, physical book? Like, I know the team wasn’t making money, but it’s understood in fanfic circles that this is a Bad Idea and this was a very high profile (and, sadly, professional-looking) project.
The work is now on AO3 alongside countless other Star Trek fanfics that exist with no trouble. If they’d done that all along, I suspect there would never have been an issue.
Linehan being attached to something isn’t a plus these days…
SMS was free on some networks initially. They only even realised they could charge for it later.
I promise you, we had massive generational debt all the time I was growing up in the seventies, eighties and nineties, and when my mother was growing up in the 50s and 60s. We had way better public services then than we have today. Whether or not the government is making debt repayments has no bearing on public services—that’s all about the attitude of the government, and a government that wants to privatise everything and destroy the public trust will always find some pretext to do so, such as the triple lock being the biggest votewinner in the land.
Seems like only yesterday I was co-admining my first public server in 1996.
Fun times.
It depends on the period of time they’re paid over, doesn’t it? Generational debts like these are repaid over, well, generations. It’s not going to be something we notice, and the UK aren’t the only country involved.
Plus, if that’s what you think, I don’t think you can have seen the state of the UK’s roads, hospitals and railways.
Just cook the chicken and eat it. You won’t notice the feathers.
Yeah. 7-bit ASCII goes back to what, the 60s? But computers still used different encodings and so different keyboards for A While.
I keep bookmarks whenever I get them, also picture postcards etc. I have some that I’ve bought, others I’ve made (e.g. knitted or embroidered). Mainly I use strips of thin white card that I razor off an A4 sheet.
Always amuses me a bit when people say Kindles don’t support EPUB, since I’ve been stripping DRM from my books and storing them in Calibre (enabling transparent conversion between EPUB and Amazon’s formats) for thirteen years without a hitch. You should be doing this on any platform if you want to keep your books.
It’s beyond me why anyone who so much as knows what FOSS stands for wouldn’t do the same.
