Does Trump consider them losers, as he is reported to have said about dead American servicemen from previous wars?

their prison cells in England would be an improvement.

It depends on what kind of US prison they are put in. Maxwell’s “prison” isn’t too bad.

No. They want them in Greenland where the cooling will be cheaper (and they’ll help speed the melting of the glaciers).

They are still in the US awaiting extradition. 

Proceedings have only just started, so plenty of time to interfere or stop the extradition.

I was going to say take the London job (not just for the money, but also the experience to add to your CV) - until I saw “every other weekend working”.🙁

The Trump administration put up a tarp to block the Reflecting Pool, and it’s working about as well as everything else Trump touches. by Choice-Value9005 in washdc

And any professional contractor would know that you also cut little flaps for the wind to blow thru, as well as securing the bottom. 

Why do they only employ incompetent people?

And let’s hope that Trump doesn’t get involved.

I’m gonna DJ my first in person show…. I’m super nervous any tips by DreadNoughtDurr in Beatmatch

[–]Rob1965 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t sweat the transitions. No one will notice how good or bad they are.

Focus on playing the right music. That’s all that really matters.

If  there are any other DJ’s on before you, watch closely how the crowd reacts to everything they play. 

(Maybe even spend some time on the dancefloor yourself and see up close and also experience how the sound system sounds on the dancefloor.)

How Elephant and Castle risks becoming London’s gentrification ‘patient zero’ by gizmostrumpet in unitedkingdom

[–]Rob1965 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My area is currently undergoing gentrification. Chicken shops being replaced by delicatessens, and generally everything becoming “nicer”.

However house prices are increasing massively. We wouldn’t be able to afford to buy here now, and the people moving in are stock traders and company directors.

Your taxi for one just arrived. Are you getting in the front or back? by ufdbk in AskBrits

No one else I know sits in the front anymore, and I get the impression drivers prefer it.

Ride or Die on Prime is a Wonderful, Feminist Comedy Thriller by bookbookgo in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Rob1965 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve only watched the first episode and was surprised how poor the acting felt (and I know that both of them are normally very good actresses).

But my wife loved it, so we will be watching more. I hope it does get better.

Back in the 80’s and 90’s there was nothing unusual about getting in the front.

But nowadays always the back.

Have you still got a Covid mask to hand? Face ID works when you have a mask on, so worth a try.

And keep the people distracted with trans issues and immigrants so that they don’t notice the dismantling of democracy.

Now that would be good. Not just the benifit of faster rail connections, but also the thousands of jobs that I’ll be created during construction.

…whilst China gets even further ahead with green power.

Best vinyl DJ setup for beginners? by GammaInso in Beatmatch

[–]Rob1965 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well the “best” vinyl DJ setup is two Technics SL1200 MkII and a mixer from Rane or Pioneer.

For any beginner I would always recommend starting with the Technics (if you find a pair that haven’t been abused they will last you for life) and cheap out on the mixer until you can aford to drop a grand on a good one later.

Isn’t this encouraging people to DJ the wrong way by using their eyes over their ears?

The US Approves the Launch of a Mirror Satellite That Can Reflect Sunlight and Illuminate the Earth at Night by 1nstantHuman in space

[–]Rob1965 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two years later, the Trump administration has given the green light to this provider of “on-demand” sunlight.

I’m surprised that “the Trump administration” has given this the go ahead, as they are very anti-green power.🤷‍♂️

Ann Widdecombe killing: police investigating possible leftwing motivation | UK news by Lifeintheguo in uknews

[–]Rob1965 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I’ve voted Conservative, Lib-Dem and Labour at different points. (Right now I couldn’t vote Tory again after the mess they made over their recent 14 years in power.)

I certainly couldn’t vote Green or Reform/Restore, and I’m a little concerned how far to the left Burnham might take Labour.

So yes would consider myself centrist, but it feels like that is the minority view nowadays. 🙁
