It's like they took everything that was great about the original MacBook, threw it out and came up with this piece of shit instead.

I do love a show that draws you in, I'll check it out.

In better news I've discovered I look pretty good in post apocalyptic fashion, the whole tattered rags and combat boots aesthetic really works for me.

One would think that if you really desire to bring about the end of days based upon what you claim to be your Christian faith, then the absolute minimum prep work you should do is read the fucking book.

I would also add that in every poll I have ever looked into areas such as Wales and Scotland are always horribly underrepresented

Sometimes you'll see a poll of around 4,500 people and it will contain 5 people from Scotland and 2 from Wales

Polls are mostly bollocks and have been for a long time.

Most of them are done via on-line polls or e-mails.

Most polling companies post the methodology, including how people voted at the last general election.

When you check that you quickly find that Reform are overrepresented (sometimes massively so).

And the split is very much Ref/Con and Gre/Lab.

The reason Reform do so well in polls, is that if you check the methodology you always find Reform voters are massively overrepresented in polls.

It really is that simple.

If one were to draw a parallel between Russia’s attack on Ukraine and the U.S. attack on Iran, the U.K. is essentially playing the part of North Korea.

We had four of them, used ot play in the paddling pool with them, they're awesome.

Yeah, I've probably confused them, it has been a few years.

Haven't watched this yet?

You should. I suffered for you to make this one.

It probably doesn't help that Icke also says shit like Sabbatian Frankists were reponsible for the Covid-19 pandemic, and claimed that Adolf Hitler was Jewish.

I think the PC version of Daytona was a bit poo back in the day, not even as good as the Saturn version.

I'm surprised they didn't re-release it when they did Sega Racing Classic as that was technically a really good Daytona running on PC Hardware (Ringworld) just without the licence.

It's a good job Starmer wasn't in the room that time Trump shat himself or he may have caused further embarrassment by gobbling it down whilst swearing it was delicious.

Hold on let me see if I can use GenAI to create an image to illustrate the point.

Silly me, you're all picturing it now anyway.

It's more a symbolic thing, especially for a major party.

Although I'm not sure how easy it is to abuse, like if you could run a candidate for The Young Bucks Superkick Party.

As Β£150 to found the party and Β£500 as the deposit is still cheap for an advert.

No spoilers but I had two poops today, the second was smaller than the first.

Most of the Conservative votes went to Reform.

Which is basically a shittier and even more right wing version of the Conservatives.

Sir Oink A-Lot of the Official Monster Raving Loony Party got 159 votes.

(the deposit is Β£500)

What the world needs now is love, as Hal david once wrote, but honestly I think I'd settle for a new Switch Blade sequel.

It deserves to be at least a trilogy.

So now he’s targeting the Irish?

Good luck with that.

Jay Miner was instrumental in both.

Then there's the weird stuff, like in the early 90s I had a go on a Viruality machine in an arcade in Leicester, fun for what it was, but never realised it was just an Amiga 3000 with a pair of graphics accelerators.

I guess that's the trick with mags though, ballancing nostalgia with rarer fruit.

As the owner of an Atari 800 back in the day and the current owner of a 130XE, I would definitely like to see more coverage.

Same with the MSX which outside of some ropey Spectrum ports did have quite a decent library.

We acheived our aim a lot sooner than expected, so the bombing will continue until the end of the week as we bought all these bombs with us and it would be a shame to just take them home again.

Now shut up and eat your liver.

It never looks like strength when you get ontinually played by a fascist prick, at best it just makes you look like a useful idiot.

That's a little harsh, its a small team and they try to cover a wide range, there is a commercial aspect and obviously a huge chunk of knowledge will come from systems they owned.

I do believe they accept pitches, I personally would love a deep dive into the Coupe, but its not really my wheelhouse.

I'd overlooked that, but yeah that's insane.

Who were the observers and what vetting process was used in their selection?

Why is there such a disconnect between this groups observations and those of Manchester City Council?

Why are we allowing such a small sample to be extrapolated into a claim of 12% voter fraud?

It's farsical bollocks.
