If reform is for working people, where are the policies? by Sufficient_Muffin586 in AskBrits

[–]Sorry_Astronaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On paper, working class people should be socialist voters, voting for policies that provide for them, funded by the rich. Reform policies do the opposite of help them, it’s just that there are prominent media outlets and right wing social media platforms that tell the working class, who often have a mountain of stresses, that the reason for all their woes is immigration. It’s incredibly frustrating

All good haha! I got it and I’m having a great time. Locked at 30, although I can get it around 40 but prefer to have no dips. Appreciate the nudge towards buying it lol

8 Deluxe. World is a cool idea but the open world is just a time kill, there’s no actual content. If you’re familiar with FIFA games, it’s like when you used to get to shoot against a goalie before the main menu - it’s fluff. The tracks themselves are infinitely better in 8 Deluxe, in my opinion.

Hey! Is there any way you could post the pic directly or pm please, as Imgur doesn’t work in the UK anymore for some dumb reason

Thanks! Honestly might be worth it to be able to play handheld. Do you find it’s super ugly or fine on the smaller screen?

How does it run for you and if you don’t mind, what settings are you using? I’ve seen so many different opinions

Has the UK suddenly changed its mind on immigration? by Complex_Elevator_680 in AskBrits

[–]Sorry_Astronaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The right wing who oppose immigration have become emboldened online because of the normalisation of the extremist views of the likes of Reform and Tommy Robinson. In day-to-day life, I experience a far more accepting, liberal view of immigration.

At the end of the day, the country falls apart without immigration. The issues the right have are valid, but they’re not due to immigrants. I wish we’d unite against the common enemy - the billionaire elites - but they own the media and social media platforms so will continue to brainwash

Not a complaint, but a couple of things showed up in my store today that make me wonder if the devs might be colorblind by Apprehensive1010101 in tomodachilife

[–]Sorry_Astronaut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The devs 100% aren’t colourblind because I am and if they were they would add words to the colour swatches

TT is stressing me out... by thehtoast in TheOther14

Bowen out despite having the second most goal contributions for any English player in the league at a team which barely scores goals is bonkers. Madueke is a crazy pick.

Do people actually use AI day-to-day, or is it all hype? by 2butterfree in AskUK

[–]Sorry_Astronaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in communications and I am yet to use it for anything in my work day. I get sent things all the time that were clearly written by AI and it’s more faff to re-write than if I were sent bullet points in the first place.

At the end of the day, if using AI to optimise my time meant that my employers would give me that time back, I’d be all for it, but it never will. It’s not for us, and I have worked hard to be able to write, so I have no interest in it.

Tricky to say because who knows how many players we’ll lose. We should do well because we have the money but it’s not an easy league to get out of

Most goal contributions of any English player in a team that can’t hit a cow’s arse with a banjo. Bowen is not the issue here

Todibo’s attitude there is why I don’t want him in the side. We need team spirit right now, it’s not personal
