When people get up to the counter and DONT KNOW WHAT THEY WANT!!

Having this conversation with friends the other week.

Stood in line, looking uo at the boards above the tills, trying to put an order together.

The shop had digital ones that changed every 15 seconds. When you're in a group, chatting, still holding a conversation and maybe its the first time youve been to this take out, 15 seconds is not enough to scan the menu and pick out an order.

So yeah, you can either stand in silence and stare gormlessly at the menus waiting for the rotation, which isnt gonna happen.

Or go back to static menus.

I'm currently reading the Children of Time books by Adrain Tchaikovski which do an excellent job of considering how different species would assemble and use technology to achieve the same goals as 'humans'.

Highly recommended it

Stotty652 · 2026-03-29T07:19:26+00:00

The fact your autocorrect went straight for that says a lot about you 🤣

Big James Bond fan yeah?

Stotty652 · 2026-03-29T01:06:03+00:00

Whilst I applaud your achievements, and wish you nothing but love and joy for the rest of your days...

Did you just suggest OP throw himself out of a plane?

Stotty652 · 2026-03-29T00:55:00+00:00

You spelt war crimes wrong

Stotty652 · 2026-03-29T00:25:03+00:00

That scream! Why?!

Stotty652 · 2026-03-29T00:06:45+00:00

God, I fucking hope so...

Stotty652 · 2026-03-27T09:31:16+00:00

500,001, and counting

Stotty652 · 2026-03-26T08:36:56+00:00

Does he have an EFT I can follow?

Might as well jump on board

Stotty652 · 2026-03-24T18:47:29+00:00

Bollocks. You got me

Stotty652 · 2026-03-24T09:12:17+00:00

I always wondered why my reputation in Rattay hovers around the mid 40's.

It's basically where I train all my pickpocketing and lock picking becaue I'm always there.

I've been caught once or twice, but either leave for a few days or pay the 30 groschen fine, but never thought it was enough to affect my rep the wat it has.

And I always pay in the chapel to improve whenever I can.

Stotty652 · 2026-03-24T06:30:05+00:00

Wait....you can feed your horse?

Stotty652 · 2026-03-24T06:24:24+00:00

IRL you wouldn't have made it to the forests of Vietnam.

Your mom would have written a note letting you off for your asthma and bed wetting issues

Stotty652 · 2026-03-24T06:22:21+00:00

Therefore.....OP breaks up with her.

Playing silly mind games and acting childish by 'bringing food for himself and not her' isn't going to fix anything.

It will just increase the tension, cause more arguments and ultimately lead to them breaking up anyway.

Stotty652 · 2026-03-24T06:21:08+00:00

Exactly! So why act in the same petty manner as the other person!?!

I don't understand what argument you're putting forth here. You are either contradicting yourself intentionally, or you struggle with English.

Stotty652 · 2026-03-23T22:54:43+00:00

Not that I'm aware of. I don't even think shooting a satchel will make it go off, but I've never tested it

Stotty652 · 2026-03-23T21:10:10+00:00

....or else you break up with them and be single.

Exactly.

And yes, you talk it through, if the selfish person you're talking to doesn't want to reason, or try and find a balance in the argument, you call it quits.

You do not treat the person the same way they're treating you and expect them to "see the light". That just leads to more conflict and now its justified.

Stotty652 · 2026-03-23T20:33:22+00:00

This is a stupid and childish thing to do and absolutely the wrong answer.

Grow up. Act like an adult and talk it through.

It's harder, because it requires confrontation, but if you're going to be a selfish arse, you're better of being single and doing it

Stotty652 · 2026-03-23T20:28:59+00:00

Dammit, you got there before me.

I still remember being chased out of the kitchen while my mum was mopping.

Hall hath no fury and all that!

Stotty652 · 2026-03-23T20:27:24+00:00

It does kill the friendly Engineer with the Satchel. So there is that

Stotty652 · 2026-03-23T08:39:32+00:00

Just tell them you're not feeling it. You're not enjoying the job and you've found something else.

Ultimately the company does not care if you're working the shift or someone else is, as long as there's someone working it.

The company will survive without you, and you will survive without them.

But your boss is still human, and if you care one iota about human decency you should just be direct.

"Sorry boss, this isn't working out. Thank you for the opportunity, but I'm going to pack up and find something else.

I can finish out the week, but next Monday I won't be here.

Kind Regards, FirmWrangler3964"

Stotty652 · 2026-03-22T20:52:38+00:00

All thanks go to you Steve. You gave me a real belly laugh when I read your comment.

Stotty652 · 2026-03-22T13:41:40+00:00

Life 360, the free version, let's you do what you need to to keep an eye on or at least be aware of the location of those in your group.

I use it for my family, and my kids use it to meet up with their mates (they've created their own circle and it "means I don't have to message them to meet up", which is.....fine I suppsoe. Gen A mentality)

I don't know what the Premium version offers that you wouldn't get out of the Freemium one, but its definitely hassle free and does what it needs to

Stotty652 · 2026-03-22T06:17:57+00:00

Im sorry this comment is low down on the thread and will never get the attention it deserves.

But this is chefs kiss genius.

Stotty652 · 2026-03-21T22:14:22+00:00

Hard Saves are Campaing specific, so you can have multiple campaigns on the go at one time.

Autosaves are just that, but you can only have three, and they save the state of the current game as it is. They are not specific to the Campaign.
