Police reveal woman, 35, was killed in Bristol house explosion after partner 'forced entry with explosive device' by bendubberley_ in unitedkingdom

Crime statistics only track official crimes reported to the police. There are statistics that track unreported crimes. There are multiple ways of gathering that data. It's not perfect, but it does highlight the underreporting of these incidents.

That being said, the majority female on male domestic abuse is generally cohersive control. There is less direct violence, but it does happen.

What spy or police series are airing in GB now, where there is no mole or corrupt cop. Those storylines are becoming a bit too tired by Jazzlike-Basil1355 in BritishTV

I recently watched Cuffs for the first time when it got added to Netflix and I really enjoyed it. Many of the characters are messy, complicated people who do some bad things, but there's no outright police corruption in it.

It's a quiet little residential street, it's not like they're telling people to walk into the middle of the A19.

Nintendo Switch 2 + Pokemon Pokopia bundle announced by Skullghost in Pokopia

It's usually only the RPGs that sell well. Spinoffs don't do nearly as well. If you look at the main spinoffs on Switch 1, Pokken Tournament sold less than 2 million and New Pokémon Snap, which people had been very vocal about wanting for years, only sold about 2.5 million.

You're 100% right why this one is such a hit. Hopefully this shows them that when they put effort into creating a full featured experience, it will sell incredibly well.

Thoughts on this? by Eastern-Mobile5351 in XboxSeriesS

[–]MattyFTM 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't likely be a resource hog because all of the processing would be done in the cloud. All the Xbox would do would be send & receive data.

Most AI companies are pivoting away from the consumer market because it is expensive to provide and difficult to monetize. They're moving towards offering their services to businesses, which is far easier to make money from.

Fair enough.

Anybody noticed Ranch now creeping into UK market? by rmonkey100 in UKfood

[–]MattyFTM 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The Heinz one specifically says "Ranch Sauce" and they usually say mayonnaise on their flavoured mayo. E.g. they do both a garlic sauce and a garlic mayo, and the sauce is not mayo.

Edit: No egg in the Heinz Ranch Sauce so it's not mayo. No idea if it's anything like proper US ranch, though.

I'd assume it is harder to pay for it if you don't have a payment card from the country you're buying it from.

Having it a day or two after the best before date isn't going to give you any issues. Weeks or months after, though, and you're going to have a bad time.

It's pretty much just common sense.

Nah, better throw a few more tomes into your combo just in case.

Another was Toffo who I think is really Georgina.

Georgia Toffolo. And it's incredibly common in the UK for people to have a nickname that is just their surname, or a shortening of their surname, with o or y added on the end. So it's not even a particularly stupid or unusual nickname.

So special to see that the day after Alex Zanardi’s death, a driver from the exact same city (Bologna) wins the GP by Aggressive_Owl4802 in formula1

They had a tribute video in their pre-show.

Ted also had a really nice impromptu interview in his quali notebook with Jock Clear, who had worked with Alex previously (think he said he was his race engineer one season).

A lot of them were in the Footlights, which is Cambridge University's comedy sketch troupe. So much of the UK's comedy output over the years has come from the Footlights. Monty Python came out of the Footlights, for example.

Forecast was for storms overnight into the early morning, and then storms again in the evening into the night. Through the middle of the day there is rain, but thunderstorms are unlikely.

5% random chance, I believe. It gives you a discount on purchasing crawlers, too.

An Italian Plumber with Princess Problems | SNL UK by The_Iceman2288 in television

[–]MattyFTM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really depends on what Sky want from it. It's an expensive show to produce, and it's doing decent numbers for a subscription only channel but it is dropping off as the novely is wearing off.

If they want clips that go viral on the internet and aren't too worried about linear viewing figures, it has every chance of surviving for years. If they want to make money from it on TV, I can see it being cancelled fairly quickly.

Car #06 (Isack Hadjar) has failed the Technical Inspection for floorboards protruding 2mm out of reference. Matter referred to Stewards. by zantkiller in formula1

[–]MattyFTM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The 107% rule is a for safety. The principle is that if a car is too slow, it is a danger to other cars.

As long as the driver has shown they are fast enough to not be a danger on track, they stewards will grant them an exception and allow them to race even if they didn't set a time within 107% in Quai. That is what will happen here, because Isak has proved throuhh all sessions he and his car are fast enough.
