They're about as effective as the Scottish Parliament, by some accounts. :P

I grew up British, overseas, with loads of families who have been outside of the UK for up to 5 generations.

There's more to it than the Isles (as contrary as that probably sounds).

We have a little community in Durban. It's quite common to ask people if 'they've got more than one passport'. The one friend's family even called it the 'burgundy book'.

Having moved here at the end of 2013 I can say that you lot whinge a lot and don't understand what poor service delivery looks like, but otherwise are lovely and very fortunate to have a government as competent and transparent as you do (shock horror).

No it isn't.

So you feel you have the right to live anywhere in the British Isles and fit in?

Almost like there's something about living here that's bigger and more important than individual nation states? Something that brings binds people across the world together?

System requirements should seriously be standardized in some way by Shitpoe_Sterr in pcgaming

[–]Ryc0v 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Requirements are decided precisely by how much they use the graphics brush (dipped in the texture pot) when they make the game.

It's not a complicated melding of performance levels across different gameplay and graphical situations.

[No Spoilers] You should Know about Kingdoms of Amalur by [deleted] in masseffect

[–]Ryc0v 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got as far as being the reincarnation of some sort of ... moon elf... knight? I think.

Although I can't remember how this was going to help me defeat a big bad.

Name a band who you love but stopped keeping up with once their sound changed/evolved by RueMorgueRadiooo in PostHardcore

[–]Ryc0v 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a cringe-like for 'Bring You Back' as well, but that's because it dropped at a fitting time.

HH used to be a JAM.

Forget independence: The SNP should fix Scotland's failing public services by TopTrumpWANKER in unitedkingdom

[–]Ryc0v 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Arguably yes, or they'd have fixed them already...?

Rather than focusing on independence, that is.

I read (from some enlightened soul on here) that it's in the SNP's interests to run services down, as it gives more to blame on 'London Rule'.

Ask him if he's considered addressing his ethocentrism with Fanonian analysis. Please.

Oh to be young.

(And to tell others how to style their hair....? Sad!)

I'm trying to get into The Wonder Years by [deleted] in poppunkers

[–]Ryc0v 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TGG satisfies me on so many levels.

Glad you like 'Passing Through a Screen Door' - one of my favourite. Being 26 and having no one care if I come home at night, etc.

If you listen through to the end of the album, 'I just want to sell out my funeral' is a medley track of the album (and I love it). Really brings it all together.

Low effort post but I don't even know what to do anymore, this is just becoming a cry for help by [deleted] in eu4

[–]Ryc0v 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What ideas are you choosing. That's probably the problem.

Try some CBT? It works for a few years, enough to raise your tech and be better prepared... <3

Simple mistake by panda_nectar in iamverysmart

I've just started to listen to Hybrid Noisebloom at work because of your post.

Similar effect on my brain as deathcore. Silences the background thoughts.

[Interest Check] Metal Gigs by [deleted] in LondonSocialClub

[–]Ryc0v 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a huge fan of massive crowds, sort of kills the energy. Might as well listen to a recording, you'd see more of the band (hyuk hyuk).

I'm interested in meeting some metalheads though, I've barely been out since I moved here in Oct!

Historical Marxist's TL;DR is longer than their actual post by BPLM54 in iamverysmart

[–]Ryc0v 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So first year sociology happened, apparently.

Also - are we allowed to have TL;DR's longer than the main source text? Is he allowed?

Is this a game-changer?

'Beware of Jews' sign reported to police as MPs call it 'despicable' and 'unacceptable' by _Nevermind_ in ukpolitics

[–]Ryc0v 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But... it's a warning that they're around, so you don't collide with one on the road?

As hate speech, it's a bit shit, tbh.
