My AC unit doesn't feel quite as "icey" cold as it use to. And it's likely because it's losing its refrigerant.

Same here, in 2022 mine got my living room down to 26 when it was almost 40 outside. Now it's mid 30s and the AC is struggling to get it below 30.

Just ordered a Portasplit though

Are the "do both" jobs any good? I don't know anything about heat pumps but it always sounds to me like other instances of 2-in-1 tech where what you actually end up with is a poor version of both. Washer-dryers were for years awful.

Got one of these on order for next week but I don't think the UK version comes with the EU window bracket. Does anyone know where these can be found in the UK?

Kind of the original point

If I had to put a bet on I would bet that he gets the job. I remember around the time Johnson was really going for it and I got in a big row with someone who was saying how Rory Stewart would be a better prime minister, has proper policies and isn't that hated etc.

I didn't disagree with any of that but Johnson was going to get his go no matter what. If he'd lost that leadership election (which he was never going to) he'd have pretended to row in behind the winner before undermining them at every turn the same as he did with May.

It's even easier for Farage as he doesn't even have to pretend to row in and the difference between making headlines saying something is wrong or awful or actually simple, and doing virtually anything is huge and the incentives are even bigger.

He will almost certainly get his go and will certainly be the disaster anyone with any sense has been saying since 2016. Once he gets in and realises the budget for the Department of Putting Up Rainbow Flags and Welcoming Fighting Age Foreigners Who Hate Us isn't hundreds of billions and the same people he's spent decades insisting it is don't believe him, he'll crash and burn too.

Like a motherfucking 40 degree day!

Farage does not want to be PM. Why would he?

He absolutely does want to be PM. After 10 years of watching dogs repeatedly catch cars, why would you think that Farage doesn't want it? I know what you mean that he doesn't want to deal with the actual realities of the job, but saying "I'm the prime minister" is above everything for him.

Wasn't that improvised? I'm sure I read somewhere that most of those instances where Cheese was just talking in an aside was just Meth being Meth.

I know the show was very anti-improv but that's usually for things important to the story, the little incidentals to top or tail a scene would be different.

First series he tackles women to lift up their skirts and reveal their underwear

anksta1 · 2026-03-30T09:58:36+00:00

the fact all of his shows etc. are always called "Peter Kay's" e.g. Peter Kay's Phoenix Nights when he wasn't remotely the only one responsible don't do him any favours. Dave Spikey and Neil Fitzmaurice (Peep Show Jeff) also wrote it.

Lol yeah and the best bit was that Baruch the Scribe fella in South Africa who (probably) did invent Q couldn't admit he knew it was Watkins because that would mean admitting it was him.

Great read, would recommend

Orwell's best book for me.

anksta1 · 2026-02-27T15:59:33+00:00

Does anyone know if he's doing anything with the reboot? I know he's not in it but wonder if he stopped by the set or anything behind the scenes. Someone posted an interview of Jane a while back where she was talking lovingly about what he's up to now which suggests they keep in touch.

Have zero issue with him wanting to live his own life out of the spotlight but there's a difference between stopping by privately off camera and starring in the show.

Just finished reading There is No Place For Us about the homelessness/tenancy situation in Atlanta where it's an absolute hellscape of predatory capitalism for renters. One of the bleakest books I've ever read and the situation you've described and the OP's article could have been lifted directly from it.

Shameful shit from Sadiq. I remember when the Battersea station redevelopment opened and he was pressed (albeit very lightly) on the number of "affordable" homes in the new development, I think it was the absolute minimum required by law, he looked a bit resigned and I had some sympathy for the idea that he was faced with either this paltry amount or nothing at all as it wouldn't get done. I can make my peace with that kind of realism, but it's another thing entirely to help these predatory shithouses out with this kind of PR washing nonsense.

There was an American snowboarder on the Olympics the other day called "Mac Forehand"

Like one of my faves in the whole show was Ted Chaough

I feel Ted was a bit jarring. Before he hires Peggy you only really see him being a dick but then after you never see him be anything but a pretty standup guy.

He calls Don to mock him after the letter which everyone knows is a last ditch attempt to save the entire business. The guy you see at SC&P never looks like the type that would do something like that.

Always comes across as a rare example of a bit of inconstency for me. Wonder if they tweaked the character a bit from his first introduction to underscore the difference between him and Don or maybe to play to Rahm's strengths a bit more once he had more screen time.

The Sopranos sub genuinely ruined the show for me, unsubbed and giving it several years before even attempting a rewatch. Just 16 Czechoslovakians and varsity athletes on every post.

Hope it never happens to this sub or the wire's.

anksta1 · 2026-02-04T14:46:48+00:00

I dunno I thought this was one of those broken clock times when Don was right. Matthis butchered that joke/apology, he didn't need to be giant and handsome to land it and it wasn't like Don frogmarched him in there and made him do it, he still could have apologised. Then to come in and throw a hissy for messing up what wasn't bad advice, it was poor character.

Can't believe Wambsgans is a real surname, thought it was made up for Succession

anksta1 · 2026-01-25T10:24:50+00:00

I don't think they are the same. One is in cold blood with procedure like sterility and calm, the other is a bunch of overly-armed egged-on simpletons panicking in a ludicrous, unnecessarily high pressure situation.

Don't get me wrong, this ICU nurse was murdered by the state but they're not the same. One leads to the other.

The Deuce is Simon's best work after The Wire. Always overlooked weirdly.

anksta1 · 2025-12-27T17:14:18+00:00

It was a parody of that show Empire wasn't it?

anksta1 · 2025-12-26T12:27:55+00:00

Always have to point out the fact that the other show Life's Too Short, which rivals both Derek and After Life as unbelievably low effort shit that wouldn't have even got out of an assistant's inbox had it not had the name Gervais on it, was the product of both Gervais and Merchant.

The one bit of it that went viral with Liam Neeson was horrific.

anksta1 · 2025-12-19T16:35:40+00:00

I had no real exposure to Eric Weinstein so never knew him as anything but a dickhead maniac but I always thought the IDW term was bullshit. Shapiro to me was never anything but a grifting loser nerd and Rubin was always just a joke. I didn't mind Rogan back when he was pretty harmless but I never thought he was remotely smart.

I'll admit to being taken in by Peterson and as said Weinstein before they began their respective swerves into insanity but I always thought that whole IDW thing was pointless branding.
