The hottest temperature ever recorded on Earth is like 56.

That just includes nukes. Russia and China have both deployed weapons already.

Sounds like maybe a Roald Dahl thing like Matilda.

Frankly I think the UK would like it if NI rejoined Ireland, it’d probably make things a lot simpler for everyone. There was a vote in the 70s and it was like 99% remain in the UK. The UK government has said that they’ll do a vote if it ever looked like the majority might want to rejoin but it’s not there right now. I know a few people from there and they agree with that.

I understand that a party that wants to reunify got voted into power there for the first time ever but I don’t think it was on any promise to reunify if you know what I mean, but I think things are slowly heading in that direction.

If the people of NI actually wanted to reunify I don’t know anyone in England who would have a problem with it, but the government won’t hand over any land if the majority of the people there want to remain part of the UK. Trump is just making his comments because he’s pissed that the UK wouldn’t help with the Epstein Wars.

Was it whacky or serious? Demon Headmaster?

I watched a documentary where a bird did that with its beak.

In the 00s everything was brown.

Gotta admit, the old map looked more aesthetic.

I played Stray the other day and it was getting a bit choppy sometimes. My PC is powerful enough that it shouldn’t have any issues at all with that game. I think it’s just optimised in a way that the game doesn’t like.

I wasn’t bothered because I didn’t like the game all that much.

Of course they do, half the time these studios have their entire future riding on their latest release.

Hate to say it but some people like this. I know my Auntie will be thinking about all this shit now. She likes to enjoy the Christmas time and have everything ready by early November.

Anything but Linux…

I don’t see why they don’t at least try it, it’s free.

This is probably only useful when you’re finding percentages of 50 or 100.

I used to get this with Tumbleweed by the time I’ve finished my previous update.

I jest of course but I once had to update it after being away for a week and it had like 14 GB of updates. By the time it finished another 450 MB of updates were available.

Why wouldn’t you just get an old Nokia for like £10? We see loads of these, they get released a you never hear from them again. You may like the idea but for most people you need stuff like a browser sometimes because it’s pretty much necessary in modern society.

Off topic but I always thought Vista was pretty good. A lot of the stuff people hated was just change. Things like UAC are normal now, can you image how bad it would be if everything still ran as administrator? Vista basically threw itself on the grenade.

I use Linux by the way, don’t lynch me.

I use Linux (though dual boot Windows for Fusion 360 and a lot of Windows at work), but if someone asks me about switching to Linux I don’t ram it down their throat. It’s good and all but it’s really not for everyone, and despite what people on here would have you think it’s certainly not as easy to use as Windows. You’re much more likely to run into a difficult problem and not know how to fix it though it’s changed a bit since you can just get Claude to take a look at things now. Windows can have annoyances but generally you can live with them.

Linux, I think, is for people who are quite technical and people who aren’t technical at all (and just need a web browser). For the people inbetween Linux can be a struggle. It’s improving incredibly quickly but the out-of-the-box experience is still pretty terrible (looking especially at KDE here).

Cancel culture is bad on both sides though.

She said it in February.

At the bottom of the article it cites that they have the right to refund if they can’t repair or replace, but since they’ve shown plenty of stock in their own store they can replace. He also cites their own policy which reads “refund the then current market value of the Product”.
