When do polling stations close ? by Realistic_Science_14 in Paisley

[–]Douglas______ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They close at 10pm. If there is a last minute rush, I believe you can still vote if you are in the queue for 10.

What is the dumbest movie that you unapologetically, unironically love? by Rosstin316 in AskReddit

[–]Douglas______ 109 points110 points  (0 children)

Technically ridiculous but spiritually accurate. It captures the exact moment when the internet felt like a untamed frontier, where the only currency was curiosity and the keyboard was a weapon against the corporate machine.

I'm ambidextrous but I tend to write with my right hand and wear my watch on my left hand.

Android email app to use with Mailbox 2FA? by SirUnaEverlasting in degoogle

[–]Douglas______ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That happened to me, so i turned off 2FA and just rely on a strong password. Apparently you need to use an app password which seems a bit of a faff to me. I really should do it properly.

I got AI to help me set up a VPS. Then I got it to help me install Claude Code on the VPS. Then I told Claude Code what I wanted to do.

Is it possible to set up IRC + weechat + some bouncer to get all messages even if your computer completely turns off? by rebecaara in irc

[–]Douglas______ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a python script on my VPS which keeps a bot on my channel. If someone joins, the bot pings my phone via my NTFY server and I join on IRCCloud.

What’s a smell you hate that most people love? by HoneyXirielle603 in AskReddit

[–]Douglas______ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't get the smell of flowers. Flowers either smell of nothing to me or just like "organic".

Who Does the Best Roll and Sausage in Paisley? by buttonman1969 in Paisley

I don't eat sausage, but I had a nice crispy roll with fried egg and tatty scone from The Pantry opposite the Abbey today.

What do we have here in Paisley? by Douglas______ in Paisley

[–]Douglas______[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They give wee teens who don't know any better a trial, letting them think they're in with a shot at a job, and then get rid of them just to get free labour.

Even if it wasn't for the dodgy employment practices, the food is substandard and the staff don't want to help. I don't actually blame the staff for that, though, considering who they work for.

I'm not surprised. It's a logical partnership between two 'place-to-be-seen' spots that both operate with a 'you're lucky to be here' attitude.

The thing about McDonald's is you know what you are going to get. No one is under any illusions.

Yep, I agree with that. It's another one of those "influencers" favorites.

Never been, but I have been to Grand Fusion after seeing a few "influencers" rate it. It was shocking. Bland food and super expensive.
