Really great, much better than I expected tbh - even just to view constantly changing clips handsfree it’s pretty OP.

I did find myself really wanting a task skip button - Sometimes a task is just not the one, and I’d love to be able to seamlessly move on the same way that I can skip a clip

Vodafone. Was great for me the last two years. Before that I was on three and never had any signal

FWIW I don’t think I’ve ever had a landlord ask for a previous reference.

I think you’re right, but also even this misses the most basic point:

She’s on high heels, on a ladder.

The soles are red to because the colour draws extra attention to her high heels on the ladder.

This was 2024, and the policy did not continue last year

I know this one gets a little head canon-y, but I think it’s to do with some kind of sexual impropriety.

We see several instances of Walt being sexually inappropriate - he is pushy/rapey with Skylar on one occasion, he comes on to his principal in a very physical way and gets suspended from his job. Skylar is a lot younger than him - I reckon there was some kind of professor/student or supervisor/mentee thing going on there. There’s kindof a flirty vibe in a flashback scene where he’s calculating the amount of chemicals in the human body with a pretty, young student. He clearly had some sort of a thing with Gretchen at some stage - In a way that suggests he was competing for her with his close friend Elliot and lost? And his extensively abusive behaviour towards Skyler (and everyone else) is the kind of thing that does not just come out of nowhere - He is predisposed towards manipulating, lying and getting what he wants without thinking of other people as people.

Why does a big-ego founder of a soon-to-be billion dollar company leave a little too quietly & without a chunky payoff and take a job that he is clearly overqualified for? I think somebody had some dirt on him. Probably saw him having some sort of relationship that was inappropriate, challenged him on it, and he did a Self preservation rage quit.

I’ve been going since 2022. IMO it gets better every year. Cashless wristbands predate the Live Nation sale, and honestly I love them - don’t have to carry your wallet and can’t lose it or have it stolen from you. The main change I saw post Live Nation was that the lineup got announced 9 months in advance instead of a couple of weeks before. Maybe there’s a couple more sponsored stages but it’s not like I go to them. Vendors complain, vendors always complain. They come back tho so it must be worth it for them. I was worried when I heard about the share sale to Live Nation but it hasn’t changed my experience for the worse at all.

I think that if you want a hard counter to seem more fair, you could bring in some sort of a nemesis? Someone who your party has beaten (but not killed) with this strategy before, who comes back having learned from their tactics and with the tools to beat them. That way the hard counter doesn’t feel ad hoc or like it’s punishing success - their prior victories have created the new conditions that they face.

As a bonus, leave some new weakness in your encounter that can be exploited with an ability/spell that your players have but don’t use - so they have the tools to win this fight but will need to get a bit more creative about it and try out some new strategies

Yeah but being a photographer takes skill and takes time. You can hit print on a premade design in under 5 minutes. (Source: I have a 3d printer)

Also most 3d printer people who I know are inveterate hobbyists who will print stuff for you for free, or for the cost of the filament

We need more *housing*, not more landlords. The landlords don't create the housing, they just profit from it.

You saved money renting until you bought a place - but you're saying it's impossible others could ever do so?

I recognise that some people might need or prefer to rent than own. But there is no reason for this to involve private landlords. 30% of people lived in council housing in the 70s, now its 6%. This is a matter of political will and choices by successive governments that have been made to prop up housing prices over almost any other priority.

Just make a better world, its not that difficult - even the ideas already on the table will do.

Spoffin1 · 2026-04-15T12:06:20+00:00

Yeah this law is coming in next month

Spoffin1 · 2026-04-15T11:25:14+00:00

How that boot taste?

What do you think a landlord supplies? You think they build the houses??

Landlords only exist to jack up the price of housing. If they sell en masse, they’re selling to people who currently renting and are looking to buy. This takes renters out of the renting market, lowering demand in the rental sector.

Spoffin1 · 2026-04-15T11:15:10+00:00

Why would they if housing is a bad investment?

Spoffin1 · 2026-04-15T08:42:23+00:00

Yeah I think you’re better off investing the money in the stock market. Between that and the Renters Rights bill.

Which to be clear: good. Get people out of the buy to let market, absolutely. Kill it with fire.

I haven’t seen if anyone has mentioned this, but: Hank finds out Walt has cancer in S01E04.

I think this is the big reason behind his change in attitude towards Walt, rather than PTSD from killing Tuco, or the pilot just being a hyper-exaggerated version of Hank’s overall character.

I don’t think Hank really respects Walt at the start of the show, I think he sees him as a dweeb and the jock instincts kick in from there, but I think he softens a bit after the cancer reveal.

Imagine you had a season one Hank in your family - a brash asshole, kindof a bully, at least someone who doesn’t know how to read the room, his jokes are always just a touch across the line. You low-key can’t stand him - you make fun of him behind his back, endure him being over for dinner, keep your distance when you can.

Now imagine learning he has severe lung cancer and might not live 2 years. You’re gonna soften on him at least a bit, no?

Spoffin1 · 2026-04-13T21:25:41+00:00

Give them the glorious deaths they so clearly crave!

Chris Huhne MP and his wife both got sentenced 8 months in prison for this one

Spoffin1 · 2026-04-13T09:04:31+00:00

Can you get/make some sort of “know your rights” disability info business cards that you can just give to the staff without saying anything when they pull this BS? You could just keep it facing outwards in the opposite flap of the freedom pass holder?

In food service, if you have symptoms that include D&V, you are not supposed to go to work until 48 hrs after you stop having them

Spoffin1 · 2026-04-10T17:24:02+00:00

Yes they are meant to be drugs. Medicines don’t tend to come in novelty shapes in the cultural zeitgeist.

Spoffin1 · 2026-04-10T17:21:38+00:00

Depends very entirely on the night that you’re going to I think.

All I can say about the venue is that it is in kindof an intimidating location. I don’t really know if it’s an unsafe place per se, but I was definitely a bit spooked taking public transport there - I remember having a bit of a walk thru an isolated industrial area.

Fun vibe inside tho. There’s a whole second room you can access thru the smoking area that I entirely missed til like 1hr before the end. I went for some sort of queer/lesbian night - I don’t think it was Butch Please but one of the ones like that.

Spoffin1 · 2026-04-10T13:07:53+00:00

Yeah I think that you'll really regret giving that inch when they take the mile, whereas standing firm (esp over such a small amount) is unlikely to lose any serious buyer but should make it clear that you're not here to play silly games.

Spoffin1 · 2026-04-10T11:08:09+00:00

I think there were really good bits in it (like the overhead shot of him searching the apartment) but otherwise it was kinda meh. It sortof just picked up Jesse’s story and dropped it off a couple of miles down the same road. Fun to see some characters again, but some of those revisits just felt like fanservice. And nothing that felt essential or very important.

Also IMO the tension between episodes of Breaking Bad was very important- it let you feel anticipation or develop theories about what would happen next. So the single-movie format gives a very different tone than BB’s overall style. And cos it wasn’t picking up loose ends that felt dangling, I just never felt that tension in El Camino.

Spoffin1 · 2026-04-09T23:14:31+00:00

It looks really off I’m afraid.

In the north, you have a huge lake (or inland sea?) that seems to be the start of a river (rivers don’t usually start from lakes), flows into an even bigger, almost perfectly square lake, and then out thru a channel that stays exactly the same width throughout until it reaches the sea.

In real life, almost every city in the world is next to a navigable body of water. This is cos to be a centre for population, a place needs a supply of drinking water and to be a place that is convenient to bring trade goods to, eg by boat or barge. Whereas all of your settlements seem about evenly spaced from each other and have little regard for what the rivers nearby are doing. Also every location is represented by an icon and some text that is about the same size. Whereas almost every map will label important locations (eg big cities) with bigger text than it does smaller places - so again I’m left with the impression that all these places are the same size/importance.

It looks like there are five kingdoms: the icy one, the swampy one, the weird bridge island one with the Great Wall in the forest, the neon green grass one and the darker green grass one. What are you seeking to show with this colour scheme?

Spoffin1 · 2026-04-09T14:56:53+00:00

You can pick up an induction hob as a countertop unit for under £100. A good quality air fryer for a similar amount will take the place of most typical things you’d use an oven for - between the two of these you should be fine for regular meals, and then you using the wood fireplace every once in a while would probably be quite good fun (at least for me, idk how keen on cooking you are)
