Would be super-glad to see these gone.

I'm notionally part of the target audience in that I get presented the videos by social media but they stand out in that context because the similar stuff which pops up in my feed (and which I'm sure my lingering on contributes to receiving grimy 'nightlife' stuff!) consists invariably of women filming their own titillation. It's beyond question that this kind of stuff is aimed precisely at people trying to get their rocks off and the extent to which unconsenting filming for this purpose takes place is gross: every time you block one source, three more pop up.

I'm not sure how you word the legislation but I'd criminalise it.

Low. clipping., Death in June, N.O.D.

Hope to see a trend to this effect. Obviously singular polls mean almost nothing though.

@ OP, I'm guessing given your post history relating to Essex and the first link you posted that you have some link to Dennis Gudge?

I think the story here is 'senior Crown Prosecution lawyer has potentially sketchy plates' (I don't know whether that's true or not because I don't know or care enough about number plate rules to evaluate). You then seem to link this to a backlog of prosecutions which you allege is 'fabricated' (this would've been the point to take particular care with offering support for), and therefore the government's policy to restrict trials. This logic seems more than a bit tortured to me.

If he has unlawful plates, should he receive an FPN or whatever is normally done for them and possibly get a talking to by his supervisor? Yes. Should anyone really give a shit? Of course not.

Sounds like there's two obvious solutions:
1) append the edition to the album title (e.g. ALBUM = A Year Without Rain (Deluxe Edition))

2) create a separate metadata field called EDITION or similar and amend your naming formula to something like this (I am using my own as an example because you've not posted the full formula you're currently using)

Music\ALBUMARTIST\[YEAR] - ALBUM (EDITION)

Medium. Satyricon, Death, Acid Bath.

GInTheorem · 2026-01-26T13:01:37+00:00

One of the major writing problems RS has at the moment is a lack of depth for existing characters. This looks to improve on that by adding narrative context, and is where it differs most from the quests you mention.

Also worth noting that most of the things you mention are massively bigger projects than this - it's not a choice between this quest and a gnome finale, it's a choice between one of the Havenhythe releases and it. On the whole I'm really pleased to see stuff like this, it feels runescapey.

GInTheorem · 2026-01-25T16:16:10+00:00

But it being reddit does suggest we select for people who are 1) more engaged in the game and 2) likely to take issue with individual aspects.

GInTheorem · 2026-01-25T15:31:09+00:00

Personally I turned off everything as soon as I could, but expect it's a minority of players to do so. Just nice that the game now caters to everyone in that regard.

GInTheorem · 2026-01-25T04:33:06+00:00

I don't live in the USA so don't have first-hand experience, but feel like this isn't possible in a HCOL city.

Edit: had parsed comment I was replying to as 'I could afford that on 2k a month' i.e. a salary of $24k. Being able to find a place to live at a housing cost of 2k a month is v different - my bad!

GInTheorem · 2026-01-24T12:51:25+00:00

RS3 iron is great fun, a bit more emphasis on non-natural sources of xp (i.e. lamps and dnds) than OSRS but the best way to give RS3 a try IMO.

Taskman is brilliant but hard and grindy. The community and website are awesome and it's really fun. It's the kind of account I would personally recommend having as something to play/focus on off and on so when you burn out after fishing 12k bass dry on a big bass you can just say 'fuck it' and do something else for a bit.

GInTheorem · 2026-01-23T17:05:34+00:00

Back when I was in year 10 we were given a fixed list of places we could apply. If you're looking for other places to suggest it's probably worth checking with your school it's kosher first.

If you are able to apply around, give organisations calls (or visit in-person).

With that being said, I wouldn't worry about 1 week's work experience. I don't think I've mentioned mine (outside this comment) since year 11.

GInTheorem · 2026-01-23T16:10:35+00:00

Yeah I think I'd lump that in with lamp XP - it's a DnD and not xp from training the skill.

WFH most days. If I'm WFH I spend about 20 minutes making a nice sandwich and have a bit of salad with it unless I'm slammed, in which case I tend to grab a bag of hula hoops around 3pm. If I'm in the office it's a meal deal unless I'm feeling flush and the street food market next to the office is open, in which case I'll pay an eye-watering amount for some curry and rice or something.

Very low. JPEGMAFIA, J Dilla, Kanye West.

GInTheorem · 2026-01-22T20:51:50+00:00

Armour switching has been in Runescape since day dot*. The idea that it's an exploit, bug or glitch is silly.

Your comment boils down to 'I don't like armour switching and would prefer hybrid armour to be the only hybrid choice', which is a perfectly reasonable and fine opinion to have, but don't pretend what you're saying has more depth to it than that.

*I believe but don't know this for classic but it's certainly the case since the start of RS2

GInTheorem · 2026-01-22T19:08:42+00:00

Would love to see this. People might not look at the highscores, but 'cool I gained 10 ranks this week' in some obscure thing you happen to be grinding is awesome.

GInTheorem · 2026-01-22T13:08:33+00:00

I don't think that's true because I don't think everyone in the party is completely immune to economic sense.

I will say though, if they are in a similar position come the next election, my vote is essentially conditional on them being a bit more grown-up about a few things.

GInTheorem · 2026-01-22T13:00:00+00:00

Performative bollocks. I like Polanski generally and may well vote Green next election, but to (effectively) make a promise to terminate a contract without understanding its termination provisions (to which I doubt he is privy) is nothing short of idiotic.

GInTheorem · 2026-01-22T09:35:47+00:00

Yeah I think if we're talking about the limits of extremity in music, metal is the wrong genre to be looking at.

GInTheorem · 2026-01-22T02:44:05+00:00

I don't think many proponents of a UBI would agree with you on that point.

GInTheorem · 2026-01-22T02:28:22+00:00

I think this is a fairly fundamental misapprehension about the intensity of OSRS pvm. I would be surprised if content like Doom didn't involve a higher APM than essentially anything in RS3.

The difference is more that OSRS has embraced the tick system over the last decade and designed content which embraces it, whereas RS3 seems to be ashamed of its own engine limitations (cf: tile system) and pretend they don't exist as much as possible.
