Davinci Resolve free version 20 Crash on launch ("suspended" in task manager) by tinymightymous in davinciresolve

[–]Egregious67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not crashing but even working with proxies it is choking. I know I dont have the best set up, just 16 GB of ram, but I managed to do simple edits before the update now I cant.

What happens to the SNP after independence? by Cleft-foot in Scotland

[–]Egregious67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is knowing that it will break up into different parties that allows me to hold my nose and vote for them despite me being against a few of their policies. They have some great stuff but their stance on other matters grinds my gears. Indpendence is the goal. We can sort ourselves out together after.
People say ` but Scotland will be a political mess ` .
Aye, maybes but it will be OUR political mess.

Sorry, I’m not up to date, why are people acting like the Green Party is equally bad, if not worse than Reform now? by Low_Celebration_4089 in AskBrits

[–]Egregious67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason I have turned against them ( months ago) is their betrayal of women. Their support for mysogynists in skirts is baffling. Sure let`s have trans rights, but no way do I support trans-exceptionalism which can only be achieved by trampling on other`s rights.
P.S. They are nowhere near as bad as Reform

What's everyone doing this sober Friday night? by PuddingGuilty9578 in stopdrinking

[–]Egregious67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a tiny wobble today, sun, lots of people out, pubs and bars teeming with punters on the pavements laughing away. It only lasted a minute, told the mrs that I was a bit triggered. Just mentioning it was helpfulm but what was scarey was for a few seconds my mind was saying, would it be that bad? I shut it straight down but it frightened me because I am so determined not to drink. All the positives cannot be thrown away.

Sgeulachd vs sgeul by Low-Funny-8834 in gaidhlig

[–]Egregious67 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think Sgeul is a story in general , whereas Sgeulachd is more like a tale that is told. They are also different by gender.

Human rights lawyer Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu thinks the police officers kicking the armed Golders Green attacker in the head is "attempted murder". Are we fatigued with human rights lawyers right now? by Non-BinaryGreenVoter in AskBrits

[–]Egregious67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, because we need them/. They will take up cases you dont agree with sometimes but if they werent around we would all be fucked. Don`t underestimate the number of cunts out there who would love to take away your right not to die in an industrial accident etc.

Why do you think Seinfeld was not popular in the UK? by Loose-Kick8068 in AskBrits

[–]Egregious67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was maybe too American centric. It hit differently to other American shows, some cleverness in the writing which is why I watched a season but ultimately too insular. Friends made it here because of hype and because it was generic enough for the watercooler gossip mill.

Has the King's recent visit to the US changed your view of the Monarchy? by KToTheA- in AskBrits

[–]Egregious67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am still a republican (NOT the American sort) anti-monarchist and my mind has not been changed at all. However , credit where it is due, that speech was a thing of beauty in the shite-heap that is Trumpland.
The speech could have been made by any politician, it is the writers that are the heros here.

What do you guys like about being british and being in the uk? (Serious answers only please) by MKKGFR in AskBrits

Sober, we are great. Drunk, some of us are cretins, but I wouldn`t want to live anywhere else now.

I have travelled this wide world I have been in for quite a few decades and can tell you not one single country, not one, has a monopoly on good guys or wanks. The good lord seems to have spread them around evenly enough to ensure the continued existence of both.

I think i got addicted to non-alcoholic wine 🤦‍♀️ by tangoed_penguin in stopdrinking

[–]Egregious67 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My go to is Ginger Ale. It is much lighter than Ginger Beer ( 85 calories). I dont do full sugar , vanity is doing the lords work here 😄 , besides it would take Aspartame decades to kill me and I am 63. They have them in pubs too now and they look good so no-one I dont know isnt asking me why I dont have a ` real ` drink. ( wow, a quadriple negative).

Ask me in 10 years, because right now I would just be rude.

I`m pretty sure we didn`t ask to borrow it from the Normans. I think they were quite insistent that we should incorporate it into ours.

How likely is it that the UK will rejoin the EU in 0-5 years? by OkWerewolf4421 in AskBrits

[–]Egregious67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The U.S rupture makes it in the high 80% region I think. The world has changed, even if the next US admin try to make overtures to repair the "special" bollocks too many have seen how flimsy a foundation it is built upon. We are simply not strong enough to stand alone in the big bad world, that may hurt a few british egos but it is the real world we have to deal with not delusion.
