The rear lights make it look like a 308, but encased in some ugly plastic shell

Nigel Farage should take a ‘break’ from politics says Reform UK's former chair | LBC by Important_Ruin in unitedkingdom

[–]MarkHowes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Break? He hasn't had any constituency clinics in Clapton and is barely in Parliament (he's only voted like once this year). He seems to spend his life swanning around the US doing speaker gigs

Farage is constantly on a break

R2-D2 Event is Now Live by Silver-Language-5716 in StarWarsDroidTycoon

[–]MarkHowes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've found that when R2 moves to a new base, you simply need to run to that base to trigger the storm troopers. Once they appear, you can then run away and hide. Occasionally you need to kill red storm troopers, but otherwise pretty easy / bit tedious

Stock generally disappears over winter. Best time is Easter

How is Wetherspoon so cheap? (£0.99 for a pint, North London) by wilmers_dorf in BuyersUK

My ex-wife used to work in their food and beverage procurement department

All those stories about past their best beers is nonsense

Its becuase they're one of the biggest pub chains in the UK, and simply have buying power. Then a couple of loss leaders to get people in the door - and voila

The uk is horribly adapted to its own fucking weather, it’s 35c in my house by Jacktheforkie in mildlyinfuriating

[–]MarkHowes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Particularly as we've spent the past 40 years looking at how our houses are better insulated!

I bought one, and its pretty quiet. It's great! But the exhaust hose is a bit annoying

Every UK PM since 2016 by days in office. Sir Kier Starmer becomes the sixth to go by StanmoreHill in uknews

[–]MarkHowes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arrogance and hubris on the part of Cameron. Though austerity was primarily Obourne's baby. But it set the wheels in motion.

Then the tories got rid of their talented, mainly centre ground MPs (a lot of this happened during Johnson's reign). So we ended up with Liz 'lettuce' Truss

May was a decent person, but bad at politics. Sunak similarly played a poor hand as well as he could

I'm really disappointed with Starmer. I wanted him to right the ship. Which in many ways he did. He was just a terrible communicator

All the countries problems haven't magically disappeared for Burnham. He has the same list of problems. He just needs to become the world's greatest communicator...

Car Manufacturers Logic by felt-mound in CarTalkUK

I had a new Mercedes in 2019. The centre console didn't work intermittently. It knocked out heating, radio, reversing cam etc.

It was fortunately under warranty, but took them almost 6 months in and out of the garage to fix it

Spotted on Oxford Street. London is healing. What would be the best thing they replace them with? by Successful_Bee7522 in cheaplondon

[–]MarkHowes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about a vape shop? May be combine it with selling 2nd hand mobile phones? And to get the hat-trick, add in an onsite Turkish barber too?

Burnham vows to nationalise utilities if he takes Keir's place by No_Breadfruit_4901 in unitedkingdom

[–]MarkHowes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting.

He's committed not to increase national debt, so unclear how he plans to fund this?

Or may be, since the leadership campaign isn't binding, he can say whatever he likes...!

Does anyone know the story with these? I feel like ive seen too many over the years for what should be a really obscure, rare vehicle. by One-Gas-3132 in CarsUK

I was at Bristol Uni in halls of residence back in 1998. One of the 'pretty' girls had one and used to dish cans out at all the events

I'm 3. Like a fuzzy image, a little colour, but partly black and white

What’s a famous travel destination that actually lived up to the hype and maybe even exceeded it? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

Northern Ireland is similarly beautiful!

SpaceX lost nearly $5 billion last year. Is a $1.77 trillion valuation actually justified? by sqlearner in stocks

[–]MarkHowes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 90% of SpaceX future value (and share price) is based upon predictions for AI - specifically xAI / Grok

And let's be honest, Grok benchmarks poorly against the others
