As with every new iteration it doesn't do anything new you want, does deliver more ways to sell you things, or sell you to other things.

08.08.2025 19:10 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The Home Office ran an amnesty campaign for 'ninja swords', so I surrendered my katana, wakizashi and tanto.
Just had a call from a plod who's told me that (and I still can't quite believe this) that only the wakizashi meets the length requirement for the campaign so I can have the others back.
I've not watched it before. It's a bit strange that without sound I don't know what is going on. I took my friend and his young offspring to T20 a few years ago and she liked it.
The goals are oddly different when it comes to bowling though.
I'm accidentally watching the Hundred because I'm in the pub. Good lord the bowling is absolute filth (derogatory). What a strange game.

You do not have to host them when they're on holiday and spend time with them recreationally.
Deep down Americans know that actually these people are on the side of right. Even if they help do coups and stuff.
08.08.2025 10:43 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Oh fuck those things into the sun. One of the main reasons I use Aldi* is because they have efficiently manned till all the time. 90% of the time I have tried to use a self service machine it's had at least one problem, usually more.
*except the one in St Johns, so fuck them too.
Definitely my anxiety is a factor. Though mostly about whether it goes wrong, as tech is wont to do, at a critical moment and I cause a huge queue and inconvenience everyone and such.
08.08.2025 10:26 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Yeah. I saw someone's phone die on them in Aldi the other week and they didn't have another way to pay.
My chip and pin card is secure and reliable.
I was a reasonably early adopter of tech in the early parts of this century, but it stopped after a while when it did what I needed. So if they still need me to have a payment service on my phone I'm not sure I'll ever get a ticket.

Though it's a bit of a walk if you take the bus.

Vengeance may feel good, but it is not justice. And it dehumanizes everyone involved.
