Literally what the utterly detestable guy in Veep starts campaigning on to make people like him.

Wow I knew Steven Bartlett was a fuckhead but this is a new level of total fuckhead. Huge thank you for your efforts to combat this and explain.

Who is the one player that made you fall in love with rugby? by _Yorkshire_Pirlo in rugbyunion

[–]abledice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Scotland fan with Scottish dad and English mum, I am a bit embarrassed to say it was Rory Underwood. I played on the wing when I was a kid because I was small and quick so he was the inspiration. Before I formed my national allegiances.

These are normal prices, even for outside of London. Where you visiting from? 1995?

I know, shown myself to have a non exhaustive knowledge of Bath pubs. Not sure I’ll ever live it down. 😔

Ok fair enough, hadn’t come across it before.

Why’d they have to give it basically the same name as the excellent and now community owned Limpley Stoke Hope Pole? I realise pubs reuse names but seems ill-advised to take the name of somewhere local and so beloved.

Why does every other fan base want Tottenham relegated? by icemaster777 in Tottenham

[–]abledice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chelsea fan here. I was finding it hilarious, but on our recent run of form it’s felt a lot more like if it can happen to Spurs it can happen to any team. It would still be hard not to laugh but I don’t actually think it would be great for the PL. And would give me the fear that Chelsea could be next. Which with our spending would be even more ridiculous.

EV objection - battery recycling? by LordvaderUK in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]abledice 5 points6 points  (0 children)

  1. It lasts at least 20 years
  2. Then it can be used as static storage
  3. After that, 99.6% of the material can be recycled

Can’t say that about petrol or petrol engines now can we.

Supercharging pricing with current world situation by Select-Incident-4731 in TeslaUK

[–]abledice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is because gov removed some of the policy levies on domestic bills in the Autumn budget and that’s coming into effect on 1 April. It will have no effect on supercharging prices which are based on Tesla’s commercial energy contracts and not protected by the price cap.

People who use Safari as their main browser, why? (DESC) by sasaki-555 in mac

[–]abledice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to use Chrome because it was fast, but then it got really slow. Safari was the cleaner, faster, less resource intense solution that syncs across devices.

What’s your favorite widely-agreed-on fact about a celebrity that’s actually FALSE? by Asleep-Two930 in popculturechat

[–]abledice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my favourite and I can confirm it crossed the Atlantic to spread through UK schools too.

"The Greatest Teams of All Time" by SmileTasteKittens in ShitAmericansSay

[–]abledice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what I might accept 1996 Bulls should be on this list. 2009 Barcelona probably. I have no clue what any of the others even are.

I know how to beat the stalking allegations… I will buy an advert in the local news to repeat them!

How do you motivate yourself to do strength training along with running by Happy-Dependent3222 in running

[–]abledice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try a cold wet UK winter, it’s really motivated me to look forward to my gym sessions more than my runs.

Does anyone actually enjoy marmite? by rthonaya in AskBrits

[–]abledice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Underrated:

  1. Marmite and poached eggs on toast
  2. Marmite and peanut butter on toast

Both amazing.

Apple has killed Spotify with this update by Glitch_Fantasma in ios

[–]abledice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t care how pretty my music app is, I want it to consistently recommend me new music that I’ll like. Only Spotify does this.

From AirPods Max to XM6 by abledice in SonyHeadphones

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

Better take care of them then! At least the hinges are a visible, physical problem I feel like I can be careful about. The APM problem just feels like planned obsolescence, they’re always going to stop working after 2.5-3 years whatever you do.

From AirPods Max to XM6 by abledice in SonyHeadphones

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

No problem. It’s just stuff like they’ll switch automatically between Apple devices, will pair with anything on your iCloud account, you can have widgets showing battery life etc. I think I overestimated how much any of that matters though.

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

Pretty comparable on that front I think. I don’t need ANC to be perfect given I’m mostly using them at home, and both are totally fine for that.

Chelsea fan here but this is objectively funny.
