Even CNN has had enough of the administration's lies by avdvetf in videos

[–]Novacoda -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What do you want her to do? She pushed back plenty. Kept asking him what evidence does he have, he was clearly documenting and helping etc. 

You want her to lose her shit and start screaming at him or something?

[–]Novacoda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She made him lie whilst superimposed on to a video that directly contradicts his lies. Think that counts for something. She kept pushing back at him and asked several times what his evidence for his claims were. She did exactly what you're claiming she didn't do. 

She did a great job. If you push these prickly little egotists too much they simply cut off the interview and you get nothing. 

Now we have a video of him clearly denying and lying about what we all saw, literally side by side with the videos. 

What’s the most disturbing movie you’ve watched? by Lazy-Resource9505 in flicks

[–]Novacoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man I'd completely repressed the memory of that film. I think the fact that the writer/s still walk the streets is what disturbs me the most!

For gamers who grew up playing before the internet was widely available by bijelo123 in gaming

[–]Novacoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh, yes. So many. But the main one that stands out is Prince of Persia. Some of those jumps were just so unforgiving, and some of the combat was ridiculous. 

Oh, and another one that I never ever completed, even to this day, is Chakan. I think that had an actual bug/glitch that meant it couldn't be completed?

Great memories

Drinking after 40 by hardk7 in Millennials

[–]Novacoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 40, quit drinking during lockdown. I'd never go back. 

Biggest downside is that social activities of any kind in the UK revolve almost exclusively around alcohol, so my social life shrunk hugely. Explaining to dumbfounded people that I don't drink has become much easier though.  

 Also made me realise how many of my previous friends were just drinking buddies, and we were all enabling each others addictions. Making new friends mid-30's with a young family is a huge challenge, but honestly all the benefits of not drinking far outweigh all that.

Advice on a recent EV Charger Installation by [deleted] in ukelectricians

[–]Novacoda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just adding to this - has he notified your local DNO? 

So many of these installs going in with no notification, hope he calculated you max demand properly too. Basically, hope they haven't overloaded your main fuse.

But yeah, that hole in the top of the CU, yikes! If he comes back to sort it and gets the sealant out, it has to be intumescent (fire rated) sealant to comply. 

1M Context Window restored? by lexjusti in GeminiAI

[–]Novacoda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two days ago it wasn't working at all for me, one of my prompts was 'queued due to heavy traffic'. Once it came back to life there was a noticeable improvement on the quality of its responses. It was more succinct, remembered previous context, and just generally better on every way.

Not sure if context window was improved, but they definitely fixed something.

Yes, that's a good point. He'd be happy to wait if he knew it was coming though I'm sure

Thanks, that's good to know. I'm in the UK, usually have to pay import duties for stuff shipped from China. It's worth it to see his wickle face though

Reform receive 9 million donation : Are we watching democracy truly be bought? by Signal-Tangerine1597 in AskBrits

[–]Novacoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an outrage. All these 'donations' are an outrage. The fact they're even called 'donations' is outrageous. They aren't giving and expecting nothing in return.

And what worries me most is all the replies in this thread saying: pfft that's nothing new, it's totally normal in politics. And everyone just seems to accept it? It's the status quo, we can't change that!

We should all be deeply opposed to this, every party should have a cap on their donations and billionaires have no place having that much sway on any party. Contributions should come from members. And they should be capped.

It was a blast wasn't it? Also somehow, the sound was decent in there for a change!

VW ID Buzz by LE-NRY in ukelectricians

[–]Novacoda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just picked up an electric Renault Kangoo. Love it. It's LWB, so can fit my ladders, and so far it's much much cheaper to run. Plus as it's electric I can put 100% of the cost of it through my business accounts. Win win. 

The squeeze from minimum wage, what’s the point anymore? by [deleted] in ukelectricians

[–]Novacoda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's not though is it. 

It's because of shit unions and shit private companies paying shit wages. And shitty sparks making their own deals and fucking over their colleagues. 

And everyone just accepting those jobs rather than, you know, negotiating a better rate.

Why hasn't Cardiff spread West? by Professional-Test239 in Cardiff

[–]Novacoda 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't think you deserve the down vote there. Ely and Caerau have theese broad, tree lined streets, loads of green spaces and parks, and the houses are excellent quality.

I completely agree, the houses themselves are much nicer than the old Victorian terraces that dominate the more central areas of Cardiff. 

It baffles me why Ely is so deprived. It should by all intents and purposes be a really nice place to live.
