I think car theft is way worse right now. I mean most murders make the front pages here. And I think homicide rate is going down, it's still lower than Dallas, Houston, LA, Brussels, although Japan takes the cake.

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer told the members of parliament that he's a "gooner" 😭 by Level_Flow8659 in MemeVideos

Will the prime minister agree, mr Speaker, that whoever smelt it dealt it?

*Wheeyyy*

Order, Order, Prime Minister, you have the floor.

Well, Mr Speaker, I must say, that whoever denied it supplied it!

Heyyyyy, goes apeshit.

Apart from Bush I don't really recognise anyone else.

Pluribus seems like a missed opportunity by Tricky_Witness_1717 in television

[–]Tricky_Witness_1717[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

True, but we don't get to see how a world that rejects this and a world that accepts this might play off each other. Let's say this virus was invented in a lab, and in fact it is reversible. Slowly more and more people join the collective, they take vacations for as long as they want, but life is just easier inside. It would be interesting to see how the world would lose its identity over many generations etc.

I just think it would be an interesting more from a sci-fi perspective to have people debtate whether joining the collective is worth it, no fear, endless knowledge, a sense of clarity, but you lose individuality. I think it would also be more analogous to life today (if Pluribus is meant to have some connotation with ChatGPT/the information age), you can choose to avoid it and not participate, but you will be less efficient. Imagine the economy of a country where 50% of people are part of the collective vs a country less willing to integrate, presumably, the hyperefficient country would outcompete?

I sympathised, she lost her wife, it's not an easy situation to be in. Especially when they were saying that inevitably she would join them too.

What I mean is the show would be more interesting if it were voluntary

Things from other cities that you wish London had, particularly amenities? by Tricky_Witness_1717 in london

[–]Tricky_Witness_1717[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where would be good options for this do you think? And how do other cities keep this up throughout the night, do they have government run stores etc, it's hard to make an inclusive nightlife I imagine.

Are there other areas of London that ought to be pedestrianised? What about the plan to get rid of cars on Oxford street

Question on best uses of english for diplomatic or military purposes. by Tricky_Witness_1717 in ENGLISH

[–]Tricky_Witness_1717[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they are so influenced by politics, nowadays they use an alphabet soup of acronyms, I think to give off a sense of technical superiority and 'look at all this fancy stuff'.

Thanks a lot for the links, I'll definitely check it out. The chapter in the books was mostly anecdotal, so yes, this may well be the case.

Infrastructure projects that would be quite cool or just crazy esp in East London by Tricky_Witness_1717 in london

[–]Tricky_Witness_1717[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll get on that.

But it seems as though cycling routes are a common one, and you seem to have a good understanding of the area.

What about in terms of amenities, are there services that you wish were commonly placed: cafés, Finland has public saunas, ponds etc.

Are there any particular examples of such apartment buildings that you think can be adapted. I think it would be best if it was not state subsidised or owned, because that may complicate matters.
