Can i also interest you in the Southwest? Tolkien based the Shire on it you know :) x

Cornwall can drift into the Atlantic for all I care but Devon/Somerset are surely worth hanging onto!

Fight me and my bad dentistry you overweight, stetson wearing, language butchering, gun touting redneck.

The UK has a Michelin star restaurant for every 360k people, the US has one for every 1.5million people.

Dammit, I thought we were joining up with the Arctic.

I don’t do well in the heat :(

Is that a thing? Only pieces of shit use the word triggered now…?

See, to me, you outed yourself as a piece of shit by burning things that could have been donated to kids who have nothing.

So I guess we all have our perspectives huh? :) x

Edit: interesting edit to decide to add the word snowflake to your comment… Trying to work out if you’re being a bit thick or deliberately ironic. Either way it’s an odd decision in this context to be honest.

Ahhhh, you have last word syndrome I see :) x

Then you’re totally welcome :) x

Do you realise the first comment in the thread was just a harmless (amusing even) observation and you were triggered for some reason and responded with “hurrr durrr”…?

You seem like a real cunt :) x

Not in the way it used to be though. I guess what I really miss is finding matches for counterstrike and stuff using IRC, it felt properly community based instead of designed to extract maximum money.

I will ask if she wants a drink, then request she makes me one too when she says yes.

I never offered to make it, only asked if she WANTED one.

I will then go make her a drink of course, and I’m not sure she’s ever found it funny, but I’m amused.

I miss IRC

I do love a game of cups!

Even in petrol cars automatic transmissions are more common than manual for new cars now. Automatic has just become better and better, and there’s just very little reason to have a manual these days.

100%

What an insane point to make. If you’re a car person then of course you’ll admire others’ cars, even if you’re not, they’re often great bits of design and good fun in the right setting.

It’s only stupid if you then go out and try to get something to compete with it for more than you can afford to spend. I have no idea what the poster you replied to is talking about.

Yes on par is stretching the truth very thinly for sure (today at least), the gap is closing though and eventually I expect phones will be running AAA games too. It will take some more large developments in phones before it’s realistically possible but I can totally see phones being “dockable” becoming the form in future, and I expect mobile gaming will have some big changes if that does happen.

You claimed it was lightyears behind to be fair, nobody said it’d be an equal to today’s gaming rigs but the gap has certainly closed a bit.

Current phones are more powerful than a switch already, which is releasing AAA games that people are buying so some people are perfectly happy playing a game with moderate gfx and performance. I can absolutely see AAA games being designed for phones in the future and docking in a similar way.

Yes that, but one that can be lifted up and taken with you in your pocket:) x

I was curious and looked on the tazo website.

For Tazo Awake English breakfast tea the label says “based on tea brewed with freshly boiled water for 5 minutes (no milk, no sugar), an 8 fl oz cup typically contains insignificant amounts of calories, fats, carbohydrates, sugars, protein and sodium”.

Seems weird for yours to have such a significant difference even if its a slightly different type, could you post an image?

Why would it need to stay that way though? Once a phone has similar processing power there’s no reason you couldn’t hook it up to any screen and Bluetooth a controller.

We’re a few decades from that if I had to guess (based on very little, I’m not an expert at all), but seems totally plausible to me.

I imagine chess players laughed in a similar way when pong came out.

What is a tablespoon in the US then? In the UK a tablespoon is probably not that much more common than a ladle, it’s much bigger than anything you’d use to eat with and generally is used as a serving spoon or a measurement when cooking/baking.

Our “common” spoon which is mouth sized is called a dessert spoon.
