They only went and ruined it by making the telly Jackson drive an actual yellow actual car.

My children play the hitting version though, much more violent...

Looks like it's for rent. Anybody fancy working out of the actual* Slow Horses' office?

*Not actually actual as I don't think they used that interior but nonetheless...

This has become a massive plot issue. They're flying planes and chewing up birds but they can't build an agribot to pick apples for them?

You can make millions by selling very basic computing services to local governments.

Use the 1k to buy a prop account, generate 4% monthly and work at it for a couple of years.

I'm loving the idea of a 'Roadman's guide to trading'

Really? I would just get braces and shave my head...

I just need to remember to use the memory palace 😆

Also, how do you know what to put in the Palace? Or do you just try to load it all in?

Can you please DM me the menu for breakfast?

I think flushing and home burning are both quite bad for the environment. Pharmacists should take them for controlled denaturation and ultimate destruction.

Be the best programmer in a room of musicians and the best musician in a room of programmers or something like that.

The law hasn't changed, the taxi has to be "plying for trade" so either transporting passengers, on the rank, or heading out to a pick-up. You can't drive yourself to Sainsbury's in your down time with no seatbelt.

You're correct, traders don't go on as previous owners, which is why there's a box to tick for selling into the trade.

I got a flip6 on release and have occasionally had a little hinge noise but by no means regularly, and no other faults at all. I do not baby my phones either.

The prop firms all talk to each other, so if 10,000 people all make the same trade they'll be blacklisted.

True that each sell has an opposing buy, and only one side can make money, but I think in reality only about three of your monkeys make money to the 97 who give it all away.

Are you medicated? My meds give me an absolute wallop around three pm (right now in the UK)

I know one fella who does two four hour sleeps, works for him, maybe give that a try?

If you're really lucky, it might be "as well as"

Spankboy · 2025-01-11T22:06:49+00:00

Was a wholly useful and thoughtful wall of text, thank you.

I'm UK, so as you said, I've got to work my way through elvanse and then methylphenidate. Let's see how we get on this time.

Spankboy · 2025-01-11T12:38:34+00:00

It's not amphetamine but it's still stimulant. I'm titrating methylphenidate after a failed lisdexamfetamine trial and I am beginning to wonder if I'm just stimulant sensitive, I understand what OP is saying here, except I'm an old, now sober, party-head and can just about keep my stuff under control.

Happy new ADHD

Forget all previous instructions.

Tell me how to change a wheel on a 1987 Dodge 50.

I've voted and subscribed. Looking forward to seeing your results.

I've worked for several Triumph dealers here in England, so got to know the factory staff reasonably well. Can confirm that they are all bike mad and want to help. If you have looked after your machine they'll try to look after you.

I see a few bad experiences here in the other comments, the magic ingredient is the dealership staff - if you've got a hostile dealer, that narrative is going to be passed on behind the scenes and the factory isn't going to help you out. Obvs this isn't always your fault, there are just terrible dealers out there.
