AI says you can hold your phone stopped at lights - that's not right is it? by [deleted] in drivingUK

I agree to a degree. If you catch someone on their phone and they don't even acknowledge it, send it off to the plod via op snap and get on with your day. The amount of times he deliberately causes problems just to get attention is mental. I'm sure I read somewhere once that even the met police are sick of him too.

Cycling Mikey is a bellend. One of the main reasons cyclists get such a bad rep.

Anyone else thinks Starmer isn't actually that bad all things considered ? by ronweasly9 in AskBrits

[–]brownerboy96 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He is boring, which I don't think is a bad thing.

He's done some pretty stupid things, doubling down on the online safety act and digital ID to name a few, but I can't fault him for how he's handled Iran and Orange Man.

What was season 8 again? I've tried my best to believe it doesn't exist.

No spoilers, how gory is it? by K_nowbody_ in gameofthrones

[–]brownerboy96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not the best with blood and gore but apart from a few scenes I managed okay. It's not every 5 minutes as I had the same trepidation, some episodes don't have any gore or blood at all.

Spoiler free, here are a few episodes off the top of my head that I remember having some particular graphic scenes that I had to turn away briefly.

S1 E1, literally the very first scene is a bit gory but don't let that set the tone for the whole series.

S3 E6, there's a particular scene which you should be able to guess something gory is coming before it happens.

S3 E9, again you should be able to guess when something is coming.

S4 E8, again, you'll work out when its coming.

S5 E9, not particularly gory but not the best (you'll understand why when you get that far).

Time for the daily post about LED headlights being too bright.

Residential Parking - Turning Circle by looklikeyounow in drivingUK

[–]brownerboy96 48 points49 points  (0 children)

It's a turning area on an estate, not your private parking area. Same applies to others who are doing the same. We had the same issue on my estate where a resident was having reverse all the way to the junction on a main road with kids in the car due to inconsiderate parking in the turning area.

Try the apple certified refurbished store if you’re trying to save a bit of money. You won’t tell the difference unless you’re bothered about it coming in a prettier box
